This week, Apple announced iPhone® 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, the biggest advancements in iPhone history. For the first time, iPhone is available in two new sizes: iPhone 6 features a stunning 4.7-inch Retina® HD display with 1334 x 750 resolution while iPhone 6 Plus features an even bigger 5.5-inch Retina HD display with 1920 x 1080 resolution. Needless to say, these two new models come packed with innovative technologies.

The Apple-designed A8 chip with second-generation 64-bit desktop-class architecture provides blazing fast performance and power efficiency. They also have ultrafast wireless technologies; and Apple Pay, an easier way to simply and securely make payments with just the touch of a finger.

The new iPhones come with iOS 8, delivering a simpler, faster and more intuitive user experience. They also have a few new features including QuickType keyboard, a new Health app, Family Sharing and iCloud Drive. With more than 4,000 new APIs, iOS 8 allows developers to further customise the user experience with major extensibility features and robust frameworks such as HealthKit and HomeKit.

The new iPhones feature a precision unibody enclosure of anodised aluminium that conforms seamlessly with the shaped glass of the display, resulting in a completely smooth and continuous surface.
