List of iPhone models

The iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus are smartphones running iOS developed by Apple Inc. The devices are part of the iPhone series and were released on September 19, 2014. The iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus jointly serve as successors to the iPhone 5C and iPhone 5S. The iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus include a number of changes over its predecessor, including models with larger 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch displays, a faster processor, upgraded cameras, improved LTE and Wi-Fi connectivity, and support for a near-field communications-based mobile payments offering.[17][18]

Pre-orders of the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus exceeded 4 million within its first 24 hours of availability—an Apple record.[19] More than 10 million iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus devices were sold in the first three days, another Apple record.[20]

History

Many rumors surrounding the next iPhone centered around the device's size; the majority of iPhone models have used small, 3.5-inch displays—which are smaller than screens used by flagship phones from competitors. The last change in size for the iPhone series came with the iPhone 5 (continued with the iPhone 5C and 5S), which featured a display that was taller, but the same width as prior models, measuring 4 inches diagonally. Following Apple's loss in smartphone market share to companies producing phones with larger displays (such as Samsung, whose popular Galaxy S4 model featured a 5-inch screen),[21] reports as early as January 2014 suggested that Apple was preparing to launch new iPhone models with larger, 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch displays.[21][22][23]

Reports prior to its unveiling also speculated the possibility that Apple would use a new iPhone model to introduce a mobile payments platform using near-field communications—a technology that has been incorporated into many Android phones, but has a low adoption rate among users.[24]

The iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus were officially unveiled during a press event at the Flint Center for Performing Arts in Cupertino, California on September 9, 2014. The event featured other previously-rumored product announcements by Apple alongside the new iPhone models, including the Apple Pay mobile payment platform, and the company's entry into the wearable computing market with the Apple Watch smartwatch.[25]

The iPhone 6 line was released on September 19, 2014; pre-orders began on September 12, 2014.[26] In China, where the iPhone 5S and 5C were the first models in the iPhone series to be released in the country on the same day as their international launch, Apple notified local wireless carriers that it would be unable to release the iPhone 6 line in China on the 19th because there were "details which are not ready"; local media reported that the devices had not yet been approved by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, and earlier in the year, a news report by state broadcaster China Central Television alleged that iPhone devices were a threat to national security because iOS 7's "frequent locations" function could expose "state secrets".[27][28]

New Features

Design

The design of the iPhone 6 line is influenced by that of the iPad Air, with a glass front that is curved around the edges of the display, and an aluminum rear that contains two plastic strips for the antenna; both models come in gold, silver, and space gray finishes. They also used the new volume buttons used on the iPad Air, unlike the circular volume buttons with the "+" and "-" symbols used on the iPhone 4, 4S, 5, and 5S. (The iPhone 5C used the same volume buttons as the iPad mini.)[29] No longer true,[30] the new iPhone had been declared the thinnest phone in the world with a larger display; reducing its size from 7.6 mm to 6.9 mm and upgrading the screen size from 4 to 4.7 inches.[17][18] Even though the phone has slimmed down, it is actually heavier. The most significant changes to the iPhone 6 line are its displays; both are branded as "Retina HD" and "ion-strengthened". The iPhone 6 and 6 Plus are the first iPhones to use a multiple-domain LCD panel, dubbed "dual-domain pixels", and use a modified polarizer that makes the screen easier to see when wearing polarized sunglasses.[31] To accommodate the larger physical size of the iPhone 6 line, the power button was moved to the side of the phone instead of the top to improve its accessibility. Finally, the design of the iPhone 6 discontinued the use of squared-sides seen on the iPhone 4, 4S, 5, 5C, and 5S and adopted a curved design like the one on the original iPhone, iPhone 3G, and 3GS.

Improved Camera

The Facetime camera has a new sensor that allows in 81% more light, which helps and is essential for face detection. A supplement element to the new sensor is the new burst effect, capable of taking up to 10 photos per second. Another feature is the focus pixels "designed to speed up autofocusing by providing the sensor with more information about an image, while improved auto image stabilization will compensate for slight amounts of motion blur and hand shakiness".[32] Additionally, the new ability to control exposure will enable users to improve picture quality.

While still 8 megapixels in size, the iPhone 6's rear-facing camera includes a new sensor which, like the camera in the iPhone 5S, has 1.5 micron pixels, an f/2.2 aperture lens, and the ability to shoot 1080p video at either 30 or 60 frames per second. The camera also includes phase detection autofocus.[33] It can also record slow-motion video at either 120 or 240 frames per second. The iPhone 6 Plus camera is nearly identical, but also includes optical image stabilization[17][18] The front-facing camera was also updated with a new sensor and f/2.2 aperture, along with support for burst and HDR modes.[17][18]

Chip

The new Apple A8 chip uses an M8 coprocessor indicating motion and continuously measuring data from the following applications: the accelerometer, compass, gyroscope and a barometer.[34] The barometer senses air pressure to determine your relative elevation. It is used in the iPhone 6 to "measure stairs climbed or hills conquered".[34] The accelerometer is able to measure distance gained by walking and running, with the use of GPS locating the user’s movements. In addition to distinguishing whether the individual is stationary or on the move, M8 works with the gyroscope to detect when a vehicle is in motion and will commence when the panoramic application is in use.

Differences between iPhone 5S and iPhone 6

Similar features are the options in color available, as well as both having an aluminum back, a glass front and the Touch ID fingerprint scanner. In depth, the following will identify the similarities between both phones as well as the slight modifications made to the iPhone 6.

Size

The iPhone 6 and 6 plus are both bigger than the iPhone 5S.

Hardware

When it comes to comparing the new iPhone 6 or 6 Plus, there are only a few differences between the two. For instance, both models include the 64-bit Apple A8 system-on-chip, an update of the 64-bit Apple A7 used in the iPhone 5S, and an M8 motion co-processor—an update of the M7 chip from the iPhone 5S. The main difference between the M8 and the original M7 coprocessor is that the M8 also includes a barometer to measure altitude changes; iPhone 6 users can track the number of stairs they have climbed, in addition to steps taken. Phil Schiller touted that the A8 chip would provide, in comparison to the 5S, a 25% increase in CPU performance, a 50% increase in graphics performance, and less heat output. The A8's GPU performance scores a 21204.26 in Basemark X compared to 20253.80, 10973.36 and 5034.75 on respectively the 5S, 5 and 4S.[35]

Connectivity

LTE support is expanded on the iPhone 6 line, with support for over 20 LTE bands (7 more than the iPhone 5S),[36] and up to 150 Mbit/s download speed. The devices also include support for Voice over LTE (VoLTE) which allows users to make higher-quality phone calls over LTE. In addition to cellular improvements, the iPhone 6 and the 6 Plus are the first of Apple's iOS devices to offer support for 802.11ac Wi-Fi; offering 3 times faster connectivity. Finally, the iPhone 6 supports calls over Wi-Fi, thus if cellular connection is low or non-existent, users can now have access to call and even greater quality phone calls. Wi-Fi performance has been improved with support for 802.11ac specifications, providing speeds up to 433 Mbit/s—which is up to 3 times faster than 802.11n,[36] along with Wi-Fi Calling support where available. The iPhone 6 line adds support for near-field communications (NFC), which Apple uses exclusively for Apple Pay—another mobile payments system which will allow users to store their credit cards in Passbook for use with online payments and retail purchases over NFC.[37] NFC support is restricted to Apple Pay only, and cannot be used for any other purposes (such as sharing content with other iPhone users).[38]

Software

See also: iOS 8 and History of iOS

The iPhone 6 line ships pre-loaded with iOS 8, while the iPhone 5S shipped pre-loaded with iOS 7. Apps are able to take advantage of the increased screen size in the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus to display more information on-screen; for example, the Mail app uses a dual-pane layout similar to its iPad version when the device is in landscape mode on the iPhone 6 Plus. As it uses an identical aspect ratio, apps designed for the iPhone 5, 5C, and 5S can be upscaled for use on the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus. To improve the usability of the devices' larger screens, an additional "Reachability" gesture was added; double-touching the Home button will slide the top half of the screen's contents down to the bottom half of the screen. This function allows users to reach buttons located near the top of the screen, such as a "Back" button in the top-left corner.[17][18]

Reception

Sales

Apple Inc. announced that within 24 hours of availability, over 4 million pre-orders of the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus were made, exceeding the supply available.[39] More than 10 million iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus devices were sold in the first three days.[40]

Critical reception

Both iPhone 6 models have received generally positive reviews. Re/code called it "the best smartphone you can buy".[41] TechRadar praised the iPhone 6's "brilliant" design, improved battery life over the 5S, iOS 8 for being "smarter and more intuitive than ever", along with the quality of its camera. However, the plastic antenna strips on the rear of the phone were criticized for resulting in poor aesthetics, the display for having lower resolution and pixel density in comparison to other recent smartphones - including those with the same physical screen size as the iPhone 6, such as the HTC One, and for not having a sufficient justification for its significantly higher price in comparison to similar devices running Android or Windows Phone.[42] The Verge considered the iPhone 6 to be "simply and cleanly designed" in comparison to the 5S, noting that the phone still felt usable despite its larger size, but criticized the antenna plastic, the protruding camera lens (which prevents the device from sitting flat without a case), and the lack of additional optimization in the operating system for the bigger screen. Improvements such as performance, battery life, VoLTE support, and other tweaks were also noted. In conclusion, the iPhone 6 was considered "good, even great, but there’s little about it that’s truly ambitious or truly moving the needle. It’s just a refinement of a lot of existing ideas into a much more pleasant package".[43]

In regards to the 6 Plus, Engadget panned the device's design for feeling uncomfortable to hold and harder to grip in comparison to other devices such as the Galaxy Note 3 and LG G3, but praised its inclusion of optical image stabilization and slightly better battery life than the 6.[33]

Build quality issues

iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus came with the following issues with their hardware and software.

Chassis bending

Shortly after its public release, it was reported that the iPhone 6 Plus chassis was susceptible to bending under pressure, such as when carried tightly in a user's pocket; the iPhone 6 appears to also be affected by the issue. [44] While such issues are not exclusive to the iPhone 6 Plus, the design flaw came to be known among social media users as "bendgate".[45][46]

Apple responded to the bending allegations, stating that they had only received nine complaints of bent devices, and that the damage occurring due to regular use is "extremely rare". While Apple has not responded to an open letter from "One of the Nine" it maintains that the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus went through durability testing to ensure they would stand up to daily use.[47] The company offered to replace phones that were bent, if it is determined that the bending was unintentional.[45]

A study by Consumer Reports found the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus were slightly more durable than the HTC One, but considerably less durable than the other phones tested.[48]

On October 1, 2014, it was reported by Axel Telzerowm, editor-in-chief of the German technology magazine Computer Bild, that following a post of a video where a presenter was able to bend an iPhone 6 Plus, an Apple Germany representative informed the publication that it had been banned from future Apple events and that it would no longer receive devices directly from Apple for testing. Telzerowm responded by saying that "we congratulate you to your fine new generation of iPhones, even if one of them has a minor weakness with its casing. But we are deeply disappointed about the lack of respect of your company".[49]

As of December 12, 2014, over 600 bent iPhone 6 and 6 Plus have reported by an independent website.[50]

Hair ripping

On October 3, 2014 9to5Mac released a post claiming that certain iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus users complained on social networking sites that the phone ripped off their hair when they held the phone close to their ears when making a call or taking a call.[51] This second design flaw was given the term "hairgate". Twitter users claimed that the seam between the glass screen and aluminium back of the iPhone 6 is to blame, with hair becoming caught within it.[52][53]

Random reboots

In rare cases, it has been reported that some 128 GB iPhone 6 Plus units randomly crash and reboot. Some believe the issue is caused by a defect in the TLC NAND flash memory modules used in the highest-capacity iPhone 6 Plus model.[54]

Camera stabilization

Some iPhone 6 Plus handsets have been reported not to focus or stabilize when the phone is standing perfectly still, leading to blurry photos and videos.[55]
