Comparison: Apple iPhone 6 vs iPhone 6 Plus vs iPhone 5S

Much rumored iPhone 6 has now been launched officially and it’s not only one but two iPhone 6 devices this year. iPhone 6 comes with pretty large screen as 4.7″ display than of previous iPhone 5S. In addition the other is iPhone 6 Plus comes with even larger screen as 5.5″ display.

Other than the physical and display sizes iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus share almost everything from inside. Another plus point with iPhone 6 Plus is that it comes with now-famous Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) first time. OIS however is not new in smartphones but we believe it’s must have addition in smartphones photography.

That’s only how they both differ from each others. Comparatively, the new iPhone devices come with improved and enhanced hardware inside as well as they will come with iOS 8 built-in. Now, Apple seems to be upsizing its iPhone devices to catch up with other manufacturers including Samsung (specially), HTC, Nokia (now Microsoft Devices), LG etc. They have been into manufacturing larger phones (aka phablets) up to 6 inches. Apple was only staying back with their standard screen size on every next iPhone. iPhone 5 was the first to have some increased size.

Other than the size variation in iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, both are slimmer then their previous counterparts and have an additional jump to 128 GB storage option. Apple’s new A8 chipset with the M8 motion coprocessor is also a big shift from iPhone 5S.
