Apple iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus First Hands-on Impression Bigger and Bigger
by Amanda G. SEOApple’s much
anticipated September 9 media event 2014 has come and gone and as expected
Apple unveiled two new iPhone models: the 4.7-inches ‘iPhone 6’ and the
5.5-inches ‘iPhone 6 Plus’, aiming to meet consumer demand for larger “phablet”
smartphones.
“iPhone 6 and iPhone 6
Plus are the biggest advancements in iPhone history,” said Tim Cook, Apple’s
CEO. “The iPhone is the most loved smartphone in the world with the highest
customer satisfaction in the industry and we are making it much better in every
way. Only Apple can combine the best hardware, software and services at this
unprecedented level and we think customers are going to love it.” Now let’s put
the new iPhones through the paces.
Design: Bigger and Thinner
The new generation
iPhones feature an obvious change in appearance, that is 6.9 mm thin for the
iPhone 6 and 7.1 mm for the iPhone 6 Plus - with all-metal backs and glass that
curves around the edges of the phone, much thinner compared to the iPhone 5S 7.6
mm. Most importantly, the new iPhones will have a greater screen than any
generation. The iPhone 6 has a 4.7in screen – compared with the current 4in
screen of the iPhone 5S – while the iPhone 6 Plus has a 5.5in screen. All these reflect the biggest design changes
since the introduction of the iPhone 4 in 2010. Not only are both phones larger
than their predecessors, but also feature a newly-designed casing that is much
rounder than previous models.
One need to mention is
that the power buttons have moved from the top of the smartphone to the right
side and the volume button shapes in bar-type instead of round, which are
similar to most Android and Windows Phone smartphones with larger screens,
making it easier to turn operate with one hand.
Display:
More Clear
Thankfully, Apple
increased the phones' screen resolutions to catch up with its much bigger
screen. The iPhone 6 is equipped with a 1,334 x 750 resolution screen (326
pixels per inch, or over one million pixels, a tick higher than 720p), while
the iPhone 6 Plus packs a 1,920 x 1,080 display (401 pixels per inch, or over
two million pixels, and native 1080p), touted as “Retina HD Display” by Apple
itself, lasting its best looking display trend. Besides, the new screens also
deliver higher contrast, dual‑domain
pixels for more accurate color at wider viewing angles, which makes it could
present the full sRGB color standard, higher contrast, and incredible
brightness and white balance.
Processor: Much Faster
According to convention
of an annual upgrade, the new iPhone carried a stronger Apple A8, which is
claimed 50% and 20% better graphics and CPU performance respectively but 13%
smaller than the A7 chip in iPhone 5. Apple said A8processor has been raised 50
times in performance and 84 times in graphics capability compared with the
first generation of iPhone.
In addition to the A8,
both new phones also get a next-generation M8 motion coprocessor which can now
estimate distance and elevation changes thanks to a new barometer.
Camera:
More Optimized
To persist in the style
of far away from the megapixels race, Apple once again just updated the camera
hardware and software in iPhone 6es with eight megapixels as seen on the iPhone
5S. Fortunately, it has adopted a new generation 1.5-micron pixels iSight sensor
and a f / 2.2 aperture, making it so remarkably easy to support "Focus
Pixels" and capture more than 80% of the light, at the same time doubled
the automatic focusing speed. Besides, the face detection, and exposure control
are also improved. New camera also supports 1080 P HD video recording at 30
frames per second and 60 frames per second, as well as 120-240fps in slo-mo.
Despite the features
mentioned above, the new iPhone will get a longer battery life even with a
bigger screen. NFC support is also included. As a halfway house between a
smartphone and a tablet, iPhone 6 Plus has new landscape viewing options for
apps and the home screen. Both phones will ship with iOS 8. Software updates
will go out to older iPhones (the 4S and later) on September 17. We will catch
more information later about this.
The long-rumored iPhone
6es have come to our sight with so many features we had predicted, therefore I
guess most of us get no surprise to this new launch. While I’m pretty sure you
will be completely absorbed by a new amazing feature brought by Macgo – iPhone
6 Blu-ray playback. Macgo has over
ten years of experience in DVD Blu-ray video and has developed many DVD Blu-ray
video tools with advanced technology. Now it optimized the AirX function of
Macgo Mac Blu-ray Player which makes Blu-ray movies get full access to iPhone 6
and iPhone 6 Plus with new iOS 8. If you are a frequent Mac user, you won’t
feel unfamiliar with this Blu-ray player
software. It can play Blu-ray
disc, Blu-ray Menu, ISO files, and BDMV folder on Apple Mac, as well as on iOS
devices. According to the launch date Apple announced, it won’t be long for us
to enjoy the HD Blu-ray movie with excellent effect on the new generation
iPhone 6, especially on iPhone 6 Plus with bigger screen.
