Recently, Apple launched their latest products in the annual Press Conference held by the company to showcase their latest innovations and products. Among the products showcased were the iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6 Plus.
As previously reported, the launch of bigger iPhones from Apple is definitely exciting. According to Forbes,
"For years Apple has staunchly kept its iconic iPhone to a standard 4-inch diagonal screen size. No longer. The company confirmed multiple rumors that it was launching a thinner but, much-bigger 4.7-inch iPhone 6, and a 5.5-inch iPhone 6 Plus.
There was no eating humble pie for the company whose founder Steve Jobs once mocked bigger phones from Samsung as something people wouldn't want to buy. Instead, Apple's marketing chief Phil Schiller confidently stated that 'they're a lot bigger,' while Cook said these were the best iPhones Apple had ever made."
While all this is very interesting, fans are curious as to what the difference between the two is. You've come to the right place as we're here to break down and compare the two new units from Apple.
No doubt that the iPhone 6 Plus differs greatly in size, having a display of 5.5inches vs. the iPhone 6's 4.7 inch display.
Let us break down the other differences between the two units according to their specs, as lifted from cnet.com,
"Screen: The 6 Plus isn't just larger -- it has a higher resolution (1,920 x 1,080 vs. 1,334 x 750) and a higher pixel density (401 pixels per inch vs. 326 ppi).
Landscape mode: The 6 Plus will be able to use special iPad-style landscape modes on some apps when the phone is held horizontally; the 6 will not.
Camera: Though both devices are equipped with an 8-megapixel lens, only the larger iPhone 6 Plus has optical image stabilization -- which should help out any unsteady hand that's shooting an image or recording a video.
Battery: In addition, the 6 Plus has a higher battery capacity, meaning you can expect to talk, watch movies, and surf the Web for a few hours longer."
