In 2014, Apple launched its new flagship cell phone, the iPhone 6. This saw thousands of aficionados queue outside Apple Stores all around the globe. One question remains though, is it really worth upgrading your iPhone 5?
Design
Design is really up to personal taste; however the iPhone 6 appears to be slightly larger than its predecessor but seems like a little thinner 6.8mm versus 7.6mm. The more latest device has also dropped the two tone design and also adopted new branding giving a more retro look. Nevertheless, the iPhone 6 is also less chunky which suggests it's more conducive towards slipping out your hands, which is the reason we would strongly advise placing it into a case to prevent any unfortunate accidents which would result in having to pay a visit to the iPhone Repair and iPad repair provider.
It's difficult to produce a verdict based on the design because it really it draws down to personal taste.
Screen Size
The iPhone 6 screen has collected a few inches across the iPhone 5s towering at 4.7 inches. This represents the biggest jump in screen size because Apple entered the cell phone market in the year 2007. The display resolution itself has also increased jumping up to 750 x 1334. Colours are true, saturation is on point and there's only right quantity of clarity.
Nevertheless, the display on the iPhone 5s remains one of extremely top quality but if you're searching for a cellphone with a screen and excellent display, then you need to decide on the iPhone 6.
Performance
Apple upgraded the chip of its new flagship device to some Dualcore A8 principal processor with an M8 co-processor which suggests scrolling through menus is much faster. Nevertheless, and rather disappointingly, Apple has only kited out it with 1GB Ram which suggests your application status will not be saved for long and webpages could have to reload.
Faster navigating throughout the menus and faster web browsing suggests that from a functionality standpoint, it's well worth upgrading to the iPhone 6.
Life of the battery
As was the case for its predecessor, the iPhone 6 is fitted with a non-removable battery. Fully will last up to a day of medium to heavy use. Nevertheless, the battery does charge fairly quickly and will not need to be plugged into the mains for far too long.
Based on these standards, we would only recommend upgrading your phone if you had been following a cellphone with a larger screen or when the use you made from it required performances.
