Apple may not be tinkering much with the concept of the iPhone; but with the iPhone 6 they literally took the biggest step in years. The screen size went from 4 inches on the iPhone 5s to 4.7 inches on this iPhone 6. With this, Apple follows other popular smartphones. Something that didn't go up was the camera resolution, but don't be fooled by that. The iPhone 6 shoots really beautiful pictures.
The iPhone 6 is bigger, thinner, more powerful and more efficient than its predecessor. Those improvements come together in a metal case with subtle curves, beautifully finished details and an industrial look. This way of perfecting is also found inside the iPhone 6. For example, the camera now features Focus Pixels technology, which means it can focus at lightning speed. We also know this at other manufacturers as phase detection. Apple's approach is many times faster than traditional contrast detection and ensures that focus can still be achieved quickly in dark conditions.
What makes iPhones stand out, of course, is their user-friendliness. The new, pre-installed iOS 8 may look familiar, but it's packed with new features. Third party keyboards such as Swype and SwiftKey can now be installed. It's also helpful that the redesigned iOS 8 works better with other Apple products. If you have a MacBook, you can use it to answer your phone calls. And you can finish emails you started on your iMac on your iPhone. That's great for people on the go.
Inside, Apple remains fairly modest with the iPhone 6. The battery size isn't overwhelming, but you'll make it through the day. The iPhone 6 continues to be powered by a dualcore A8 processor at 1.4GHz. That's phenomenal performance. In terms of speed, other smartphones rarely come close (October 2014).
Well-prepared takes time. The iPhone 6 has been out for almost a month now, so it's time for an extensive review. One with a practical and meaningful gang test, a realistic comparison with high-end Androids and no fanboy opinion. In recent years, our iPhone reviews have received a lot of criticism. We were too critical of the small screen and didn't think iOS was open enough. This allowed the competition to catch up with Apple and even passed it by on points. Time has proved us right. Even Apple is convinced that 4 inch is too small and even came up with an even larger 5.5 inch phablet. Moreover, the door of the closed iOS went ajar which made new applications possible.

It doesn't make much sense, but which phone will last longer in boiling water? iPhone 6 or Galaxy S6?
Strangely enough, the iPhone 6 is slower than the first iPhone in some areas.
