The two new iPhones – iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus - have 4.7 inch and 5.5 inch retina HD displays respectively, and packed with innovative technologies in new and seamless design.

iPhones will be available in India from October 17.

                                      

iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus include the following:

i) The Apple-designed A8 chip with second generation 64 bit desktop-class architecture for blazing fast performance and power efficiency.

ii) Advanced iSight and FaceTime HD cameras; ultrafast wireless technologies.

iii) Apple Pay, which is an easier way to simply and securely make payments with just the touch of a finger. Users can pay securely and conveniently in stores by simply holding the phone near the contactless reader while keeping a finger on Touch ID. All payment information is kept private, encrypted and stored securely in the Secure Element, a chip inside the new iPhones.

iv) Both models include iOS 8, the latest version of the world’s most advanced mobile operating system, featuring a simpler, faster and more intuitive user experience with new Messages and Photos features, QuickType keyboard, a new Health app, Family Sharing and iCloud Drive.

v) iPhone 6 features 4.7 inch Retina HD display with 1334 x 750 resolution, providing 38 percent more viewing area than iPhone 5s.

With iOS 8, motion data from M8 appears in the Health app so you can see how many flights of stairs you've climbed, or how far you've walked or run. Developers can use CoreMotion APIs that take advantage of M8 and HealthKit to create apps that help you take better care of your health and fitness.
