Apple has produced the best phones ever. the coming of iphone 4 and now 5 has made other mobile producing companies to hype up.
iOS 7:The Most Certain Thing About iPhone 6
The one thing most certain about iPhone 6 is that it will run on iOS
7. The new platform, which is a complete overhaul of the OS, was
announced at WWDC 2013. The new platform has rounded icons, striking
colors and a stark font along with features like Control Center, AirDrop
and iTunes Radio.
iOS 7 is expected to be released in September or October this year.
iPhone 6 Features
The iPhone 6 will certainly have
improved Siri capabilities. The voice command feature allows the user to
control some of the phone settings like play a past voice mail, turn on
Bluetooth, and increase the brightness settings.
The new iPhone will definitely have a
better and improved Safari browser. Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) has added a
unified search and URL field, similar to that in Google Chrome. Apple has also removed the navigation bars until needed.
Apple’s new iTunes Radio will also be a
part of iPhone 6. The service includes radio stations built around a
favorite artist, and featured stations. The radio service will be
connected to the Apple ID.
More Rumored Features of iPhone 6
A two minute clip by T3, shows a 5.7-inch form factor of an iPhone, with 1920 x 1080 retina display at 386 pixels per inch. The pixel density is higher than that of iPhone 4, iPhone 4S and iPhone 5.
The bigger device will have an A7
quad-core processor and will run on the yet-to-be-launched iOS 7. The
height is expected to be 151.8 mm (5.9 inches), width 80.5 mm (3.16
inches), depth: 7.6 mm (0.30 inches) and weight: 180 grams (6.34
ounces).
Talks of a bigger iPhone have not been new; recently a report from Reuters
unofficially dubbed the next year’s iPhone iteration as “iPhone 6,” and
claimed that the device may be available in least two bigger screen
sizes, 4.7-inch and 5.7-inch.
The iPhone 6 is, also, expected to be waterproof
and could have an RSS reader, which Apple has been rumored to be making
for a while. Also, the device may be available in 16GB, 32 GB, 64 GB,
and 128GB variants.
iPhone 6 Release Date
Peter Misek,
an analyst at Jefferies, reported in April that the iPhone 6 may arrive
in 2014 with a bigger display. According to Misek, the iPhone maker is
getting the supply chain right for the production of “iPhone 6,” but it
might take around 3 to 4 quarters to develop and manufacture the device.
The delay is mainly due to time lost in making a shift in the handset’s
display technology.
The rumored iPhone 6 released date could be in August, or on Labor Day, September 2.
Wal-Mart stores are fire-selling the iPhone 5 and iPhone 4S for $129 and $39 respectively, suggesting
they want to clear the inventory as fast as possible. While Apple is
saying that iOS 7 will arrive in the “fall”, implying the iPhone 6 will
arrive along with it, the fact that Wal-Mart is clearing its inventory
indicates it expects to sell the iPhone 6 by this time next month.
iPhone 6 vs. Android
With the details that have been leaked, it clearly indicates that the new device will tempt Android users to switch platforms. Let’s find out how:
*
Apple CEO Tim Cook has been modest in saying that Apple is not doing
multiple iPhone screen sizes currently, meaning the iPhone 6 may present
users with a choice of screen sizes. This takes away the biggest
hardware advantage enjoyed by Galaxy devices.
* The
iOS 7, the on screen interface for the iPhone 6, is a complete makeover
from the previous platform. The new OS offers multitasking and power
management features that haven’t worked well on Android devices.
* The
last three iPhone models were almost similar in styling therefore Apple
Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) knows very well that, with iPhone 6, it will have to
come up with a new look to attract Android users.
*
Apple Maps 2.0, which may accompany iPhone 6, will certainly be an eye
catching feature. Apart from this, iPhone is the first destination of
popular apps like Vine and Instagram, which do force Android users to
think that, in the app world, they’re second class citizens.Check this phone when it will be released, I suppose it will be dope.
