#Iphone 6 screen wrap around plus#
Not only do both phones mark a noticeable increase in battery life from the previous generation, but the iPhone 6 Plus boasts almost twice the 3G talk time of the standard model. You might think that the big increase in screen size and resolution from the iPhone 6 to the iPhone 6 Plus would cause a drop in battery life, but Apple took advantage of the larger construction by increasing the capacity of the battery.

(Whether or not it has the extra GB of RAM, Apple always crafts a seamless hardware and software experience, and the fact that the processor can run Metal on a 1080p screen is impressive.) Battery life While the A8 processor likely packs in 1GB of RAM standard, there’s some speculation that the iPhone 6 Plus will feature a hefty 2GB of memory to support the larger display and some of the functionality, but that hasn’t been confirmed by Apple. Chances are we won’t know more about the A8 until it’s in our hands and we can run benchmarks, but according to Apple the new chip has a 25 percent improvement in CPU performance, 50 percent in graphical performance, and draws half the power of the old chip. Apple boasts that the A8 chip has a 20nm construction, which means that it should be much more power efficient. What we do know, is that the A7 chip found in the iPhone 5 is a dual-core processor that has a maximum clock rate of about 1.4 GHz, with a 28nm construction. While most processors deal in concrete numbers like speed in GHz and number of cores, the A8 system on a chip is only defined, at this point, by its comparison to the older A7. (The changes made to the iPhone 6’s design has made both models thinner and lighter than iPhone 5S) Processing powerĪpple’s new A8 processor is a huge jump in performance from the A7, but by how much is still unknown. In addition to the gold and silver makeups, the iPhone 6 is also available in space gray, a darker matted slate color that has appeared in previous generations of iPhone and iPod. The glass edges of the screen wrap around the edge, making both models significantly more comfortable to hold than the iPhone 5, as well as taking care of the phone ghost that the sharper edges left on jeans. (The smaller footprint is much more comfortable for phone use and texting, at least until we’ve had a chance to play with the one-hand mode on the Plus.) DesignĪpple’s design philosophy has always revolved around a utilitarian simplicity, and the iPhone 6 is no exception.

In addition, the larger iPhone 6 Plus has a one-handed mode that shifts applications down toward the bottom of the display, solving the problem that a lot of users complain about with larger smartphones. The email and messages, as well as the home screen, have been updated to include landscape versions, much like the last few generations of iPad. If you value screen real estate, and frequently find yourself wanting to read and respond to emails in landscape mode, the iPhone 6 Plus has a number of features that take advantage of the larger display. September 19th on AT&T, Verizon, Sprint, T-MobileĮven though the difference in diagonal screen size is less than an inch between the two iPhone 6 models, this translates into a very noticeable difference when you hold the device.
