Apple iPhone 6 - Specifications, Features, Review and Price

   Even if you don't have an iPhone, iPad or any other Apple device, I'm sure you'll still be very aware of the fact that iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iWatch and Apple itself are some of the latest trending keywords and topics on the World wide web recently. On the 9th of September, Apple released the newest and latest iPhone in its Smartphone line and as expected, it's always the bomb. The interesting part of this is that, Apple released 2 editions of the iPhone 6 on that very day - iPhone 6 [4.7 inch] and a bigger iPhone 6 Plus [5.5 inch]. Who knows maybe Steve Jobs is already annoyed in his grave with this ? Cuz he used to believe a large screen iPhone won't sell.. LOL, please forgive me, just kidding though.
Apple iPhone 6

   As far as the Apple line of Smartphone is concerned, the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus are the first Apple phone to feature a bigger-than-normal screen with faster processor and other nice features. Even though they are the king in the iOS lane, some of their Android counterparts are still ahead of them in terms of Specs and features. Since the two iPhones are different and also have different Specifications, we'll be reviewing their Specs and features separately. So in this post is the iPhone 6... The iPhone 6 is a 4.7 inch iOS 8 Smartphone with a 8MP Primary and 1.2MP Secondary Camera. Without so much ado, let's dive into the full Specs below ->
