Tim Cook announced the big new iPhones last week, and the Internet has been abuzz ever since. Pre-orders have set new records, and I'm sure there's already a line at the Biltmore store for the release on Friday the 19th. The big question is: Should you get one? Well, we have it boiled down to three thoughts before you grab your camping equipment and head to the Apple Store.
Yes: If You Like a Bigger Screen
The new phones come in two sizes. The iPhone 6 has a screen that measures 4.7 inches diagonally, while the phablet-sized iPhone 6 Plus clocks in at a huge 5.5 inches. And despite the size, they have made the phones thinner. In fact the iPhone 6 with it's big screen is actually lighter than the iPhone 5c. If you have a 4 or a 4s, this is a huge step up in real estate.
Yes: If You Like Taking Pictures
The cameras on both versions of the iPhone 6 are much improved. In addition to offering 240 fps (frames per second) Slow Motion, HD Video can be shot at 60 fps at 1080p. Both have image Auto Stabilization so you can leave the steady cam rig at home, and are packed with features like Exposure Control, improved Face Detection, and a Panorama mode where you can create 43MP photos of epic proportion.
Yes: If You Like Longer Battery Life
The A8 processor in the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus operates faster than the A7 in the iPhone 5s, but does so more efficiently. In essence, you get more power with longer battery life. And thanks to the physical size of the iPhone 6 Plus it's able to accommodate a bigger battery for even longer life than the iPhone 6.
