Article Summary:

The article, iPhone vs iPhone 6 plus: The Differences Between The New Apple iPhones, written by Gordon Kelly of Forbes magazine, raves all about the new iPhones. In the article, it explains the specifications of each of the phones and explains how it is a big upgrade from the iPhone 5 and iPhone 5s. The iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6 Plus have more of a curvy design, have a bigger screen than the iPhone 5 but are less heavier, are optimized for one handed use, has a higher quality camera, longer battery life and have improved performance. The iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6 Plus do not differ by that much. The only major differences are that the Plus has a larger display screen and has better battery life than the iPhone 6. This article has all the information needed for consumers to decide whether the iPhone 6 is the right fit for them or the iPhone 6 Plus.

Analysis:

This article holds so much information about the iPhone 6, which makes me really wonder how it is going to do on the market. There have been many rumors about people complaining about how these new iPhones are just like phones already on the market. I cannot wait to buy one and see if these phones are really as cool as the article puts them out to be. The iPhone 6 Plus claims there is more battery life to it than the 6 but I am concerned with this statement because since the Plus is larger, it takes more battery life for it to process information. What also concerns me is that these phones are optimized better for one hand use. It is convenient to use a phone with one hand but I feel that people will think it is okay to use their phones while driving since they only have to use one hand. While technology gets more convenient for users, we will drive ourselves into a society where there will be less social interaction because of it.
