Questions tagged [iphone-6]

iPhone 6 is the first Apple iPhone that offers NFC, and comes with modern larger screen sizes than previous iPhones.

iPhone-6 is the Sept 2014 refresh of Apple's iPhone line.

It brings with it a few new features such as:

  • a larger screen (4.7 in)
  • NFC
  • rounded edges
  • storage size up to 128GB

Other updates are more evolutionary:

  • improved camera (which protrudes from the back)
  • improved processor
  • improved battery life

There is also an iPhone 6 Plus, which has an even larger screen (5.5 in), and has the software advantage of working in landscape mode as well as portrait and a better battery life.
