Apple on Tuesday 9th sept 2014 introduced two new phone, the iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6 Plus, both bigger but sill thinner that anything the company has offered so far.But the real stunner was the new Apple Watch, a stunning new device that will take the wearables race to a whole new level.
The iPhone 6 will have a 4.7-inch screen, while the iPhone 6 Plus will have a 5.5-inch screen. The two new phones will also usher in the next generation of Retina HD displays. That is 1334 x 750p for the smaller phone and 1920 x 1080p for the larger one. The phones are also among the thinnest Apple has ever made, at just 6.8mm and 7.1mm, compared to the 7.6 inches on the 5S.
The phones will also feature new, better cameras. They will shoot better video for instance at 60 fps and offer slow motion too. The phones will be powered by a new 64-bit A8 chip. Apple claims this processer, despite being smaller than A7, will be 20 per cent faster and have 50% better graphics. All this will make the iPhone 6 up to 84 times faster.
Apple is also entering the mobile wallet space. Called Apple Pay, the new feature will initiate NFC transaction based on credit card details saved in the phone. The ‘blink and miss’ feature as CEO Tim Cook calls it, will however need companies and retailers around the world to be as excited about the feature as Apple.
