This is the iPhone 6


After months of anticipation, Apple has officially unveiled its new smartphone: the iPhone 6.
Just as we expected, the iPhone 6 appears to have a much larger screen than the iPhone 5s and comes in two sizes.

Design And Display
The iPhone 6 looks significantly different than Apple's previously released smartphones. True to the leaks that preceded Tuesday's unveiling, the iPhone 6 features curved, thinner edges that resemble the iPad Air's design. Everything we've seen in photos circulating the past months seems to be true, straight down to the elongated volume buttons along the side.
The iPhone 6's 4.7-inch display will feature a resolution of 1334 x 750, while the larger 5.5-inch iPhone will come with a 1920 x 1080 resolution screen.

What's On The Inside
As expected, the new iPhones will run on Apple's new 64-bit A8 processor. The iPhone 6 is said to be 50 times faster than the original iPhone.
Apple says its A8 chip can handle high-end gaming graphics and that some developers have already begun creating games for the iPhone 6.
Apple is also introducing a new M8 co-processor to go along with the A8. The new chip will be able to tell when you're walking, bicycling, whether you're climbing stairs, and more. That's because the M8 comes with a barometer for measuring elevation.
The iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus will also support Voice Over LTE technology, which means you'll be able to make clearer phone calls over Wi-Fi connections. Wi-Fi calling will be available only for T-Mobile users in the U.S. initially.

Camera And Special Features
The iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus will come with an 8-megapixel camera with a new sensor for taking better photos. This new sensor comes with Focus Pixels that enable the camera to focus twice as fast as the iPhone 5s' camera. This is the same technology used in DSLR cameras, according to Apple.
The new camera will come with face detection for focusing on the faces of the people in your photos. It also has better image stabilization, which means your photos won't come out blurry. Apple says we can expect better low-light photography from the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus.

The iPhone 6 and 6 Plus are expected to hit 115 countries by the end of 2014

When and where to buy the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus


There are two new iPhone models now available for purchase. The iPhone 6 is equipped with a 4.7-inch Retina display, while the larger iPhone 6 Plus has a 5.5-inch Retina display. In addition to being slimmer and lighter, both models also include a 64-bit A8 processor with improved graphics, an improved 8-megapixel rear camera, improved battery life, and an NFC chip that allows you to use the phone to make payments.
Here's everything you need to know about getting your hands on the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus:

When and where
The iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus will be available on September 19, with preorders set to begin on September 12.

Apple
Apple is scheduled to open its retail stores at 8 a.m. local time on September 19, however the launch of new iPhones usually results in long lines and massive crowds. The best bet would be to preorder the iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus directly from Apple's online store.

Carriers
Apple's website can quickly become overwhelmed by the thousands of eager customers looking to purchase a new smartphone. You may find it easier to preorder one of Apple's new phones from your wireless carrier's website or store.

Verizon
Verizon is running a promotion where you can get the 16GB iPhone 6 for free when you trade in an older iPhone. The nation's largest carrier is accepting the iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPhone 5C, and iPhone 5S. The fine print reads that all devices must be in "good working condition" and that the discount will come in the form of a $200 Verizon gift card. The company will open preorders for the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus later this week.
