Apple iPhone 6 & iPhone 6 Plus in a double test

introduction 

Apple has ventured a new step in the eighth generation of the iPhone and bowed to the needs of the customer. In recent years, Apple has always to a display size of 4 inches or held under and repeatedly set the binding operation in the foreground. In the meantime, however, the smart phones and their applications have evolved, so that the need for larger displays has increased and has accordingly implemented. 

Apple had resisted for several years prior to this development and persisted in their principles. These were thrown with the new version of the Apple smartphones overboard what was necessary and essential. The success of the iPhone 6 confirms this step.


Design, Manufacturing & Equipment 

The design could Apple this time not keep to themselves and so the housing of the iPhone 6 already haunted weeks before the presentation by the Blogosphere. At this time I was not particularly thrilled with the look. The plastic strip on the back that provide the appropriate antenna reception have not spoken to me on the pictures surfaced. In reality it looks a little different. In the color "Space Grey" on the strip does not really fall and also not destroy the overall picture of the aluminum housing. But in the end it is a matter of taste. 

In terms of processing, the iPhone 6 its predecessors in every other way (if one disregards the Bendgate). The unibody enclosure is made of high-grade aluminum and the rounded corners of the smartphone is very good in the hand, but not completely sure. Increase the thinness of the device and the new shape of the corners unfortunately the likelihood that the iPhone 6 slips out of his hand by mistake. 

When furnishing Apple has not spilled, and especially in terms of processors a delicacies were installed. The system-on-a-chip has two clocked with 1.4 GHz processors that support 64-bit instruction set. In addition, the A8 chip speaks to a 1 GB RAM and additionally accesses a PowerVR graphics unit GX6450G back. An LTE chip that supports all frequencies in Germany, an NFC chip for mobile payments, Bluetooth 4.0 LE and Wi-Fi 802.11a / b / g / n / ac are also on board. In addition to the innards of the smartphone Apple has installed on the front a 1.2 megapixel camera and a 4.7 inch display with a resolution of 1334 x 750 pixels. On the back is an 8 megapixel camera in which the lens protrudes a few millimeters from the housing. This is not really disturbing and it also wobbles not particularly when the iPhone 6 is on a table and operated. In my view, therefore, not a negative point. 

The whole package weighs just 129 grams and has the dimensions of 138.1 x 67 x 6.9 mm. With this size and the 4.7 inch display of course raises the question of the one-handed operation. With my hands I have no problems with it and I Reach to any controls. For smaller hands, this could be problematic, however.

A main focus of Apple is on the camera and it shows. The back camera has a resolution of 8 megapixels, which is perfectly adequate as in previous years. The megapixel madness of competition has nothing to do with the quality of the recordings, but rather the opposite. The camera has 1.5 micron pixels wide, an ƒ / 2.2 aperture and a digital image stabilizer. The image signal processor has been improved remarkably by Apple and can boast both a faster autofocus and an improved face recognition. 

In the same train, the camera can also benefit from the more powerful A8 processor and is to take slow motion video recording at 240 frames per second and 1080p video at 60 frames per second in the situation. Speaking of videos. One of the innovations is also the continuous autofocus, which makes the first videos that moving objects are always sharp. This works well in practice. 

Well enough talk about the functions of the camera. It comes but rather on the quality of the photos and can be seen. Apple has done it yet gained a lot more down and improve the already excellent camera quality of the iPhone 5s. Compared to the competition it is also clear that the megapixel count has little to do with the quality and the iPhone 6 can score some extra points in the color representation and the general sharpness. In low light, the smartphone from Apple even provides good results, which the accompanying photographs below show.
