Apple iPhone 6

Why Buy iPhone 6?

The iPhone 6 combines Apple’s classic slim aluminium design with a 4.7-inch Retina HD display, A8 chip, 8MP iSight camera, Touch ID, and 4G LTE connectivity.

Display & Design

The iPhone 6 features a 4.7-inch Retina HD IPS LCD display with a resolution of 1334 × 750 pixels at 326 ppi.

The display offers a typical maximum brightness of 500 nits and supports full sRGB colour. Its 4.7-inch screen provides more viewing space than the smaller 4-inch iPhones that came before it.

The iPhone 6 features a slim aluminium unibody construction with rounded edges and a physical Home button. This design established the overall form factor used by several later generations of iPhone.

A8 Performance

The iPhone 6 is powered by Apple’s A8 chip with 64-bit architecture, paired with an M8 motion coprocessor.

The A8 features a dual-core CPU and was designed to improve performance and power efficiency compared with the previous A7 generation.

The M8 motion coprocessor processes information from the device’s motion sensors, supporting compatible fitness, activity, and motion-related features.

8MP iSight Camera

The iPhone 6 features an 8MP iSight rear camera with an ƒ/2.2 aperture.

The camera includes autofocus with Focus Pixels, True Tone flash, Auto HDR, panorama, burst mode, face detection, and digital zoom up to 5x.

Unlike the iPhone 6 Plus, the standard iPhone 6 does not feature optical image stabilization.

Video Recording

The iPhone 6 supports 1080p HD video recording at 30fps or 60fps.

It also supports slow-motion video recording at 720p at 120fps or 240fps, Time-lapse video with stabilization, continuous autofocus video, and cinematic video stabilization.

The iPhone 6 does not support 4K video recording. That capability was introduced on the later iPhone 6s generation.

Front Camera

The 1.2MP FaceTime HD front camera features an ƒ/2.2 aperture and supports 720p HD video recording.

It also supports Auto HDR for photos and videos, burst mode, face detection, and exposure control.

The front camera can be used for FaceTime calls, selfies, and compatible video-calling applications.

Touch ID & Security

The iPhone 6 features Touch ID integrated into the physical Home button.

Touch ID provides fingerprint-based authentication for unlocking the device and supported security functions.

Users can also secure the device using a PIN and passcode.

Connectivity

The iPhone 6 supports 4G LTE, Wi-Fi 802.11a/b/g/n/ac, Bluetooth 4.2, NFC, GPS, and GLONASS.

It uses a nano-SIM and includes a Lightning connector for charging and data transfer.

The device also features a 3.5mm headphone jack, allowing compatible wired headphones and audio accessories to connect directly.

Battery & Charging

The iPhone 6 uses a built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery and charges through its Lightning connector.

It does not support Qi wireless charging, MagSafe, or Apple’s later fast-charging system.

The available device is Open Box and comes with 85%–88% battery health, depending on the individual unit.

Actual battery performance may vary depending on battery condition, network usage, screen brightness, applications, and individual usage patterns.

Durability

The iPhone 6 features an aluminium enclosure and glass front.

Unlike newer iPhone generations, the iPhone 6 does not have an official IP water and dust resistance rating, so exposure to water and liquids should be avoided.

Storage Options

Across its lifecycle, the iPhone 6 was offered in four storage capacities:

• 16GB
• 32GB
• 64GB
• 128GB

At its original 2014 launch, Apple offered the iPhone 6 in 16GB, 64GB, and 128GB capacities. The 32GB version was introduced later, so it was not part of the original launch lineup.

Everyday Experience

The iPhone 6 is known for introducing Apple’s 4.7-inch iPhone form factor while retaining the traditional Home-button experience.

Its combination of the A8 chip, Touch ID, 8MP camera, 1080p video recording, 4G LTE, Wi-Fi, and compact aluminium construction provides the core experience associated with this classic iPhone generation.

For a product catalogue, the iPhone 6 is clearly differentiated from the later iPhone 6s by its A8 processor, 8MP rear camera, and lack of 3D Touch and 4K video recording.
