The much-awaited Apple iPhone 6 although offers several upgrades over the previous iPhones and is "bigger and better" but fails to take the big leap in the phone landscape, a report said.
The 5.5-inch screen although features a 1,920 x 1,080-pixel resolution but it fails to beat other phones like the Quad HD Note 4 in this category because they feature screens that have an ultra-high resolution, reported CNET.
The metal design and curved lines although feel very similar to the previous iPod Touch models and the iPad but they are certainly thinner and flatter unlike the bulky HTC One M8.
Apple claimed that the bigger version of the newly launched iPhone provides 24 hours of talk time on a 3G connection but unlike Samsung Galaxy, iPhone's batteries cannot be swapped.
If users were to compare the camera of the newly released models to their predecessor, iPhone 5s, one would find some key upgrades like, a faster autofocus and slow-motion video up to 240 frames per second which is double that of the iPhone 5S however, the resolution of the new devices' cameras remain fixed at 8-megapixels just like their predecessors. iPhone 6 Plus features optical image stabilization but this feature is also not new and it appears on other phones too like the Galaxy Note 4.
The new iPhones' processors are said to allow 50 percent faster graphics and offer a 25 percent faster CPU which makes the devices power efficient but it can hardly be termed a spectacular upgrade over the previous phones.
