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.
