So you are using a iPhone 4 or 5 series and you're wondering if the upgrade is really worth it. What's not to love about the new 6 series? Let's take a look at what you can expect from the new iPhone 6 and 6 Plus.
- Improved Camera
- Longer lasting Battery
- Larger screen
- Faster CPU and Graphics
- Faster LTE and 3G
- Improved iOS 8 Capabilities.
Apple have really brought out the guns with the new 6 series. The new units are zippier thanks to the new A8 Dual Core Processor and nice on the eyes with the new rounded look and feel. NFC has been added so you can now make wireless transactions using apple wallet or other services. While many of the changes are minor it does make a big difference using a retina screen - the display is simply amazing. Is this really worth the $100 price jump? You be the judge. Here's how the new units compare to older ones.
Still using a iPhone 4/S?
Upgrade today! The iPhone 4 is out-dated with its bulky design and storage limitations.
With Apple releasing new Operating Systems the 4 series is falling behind as the hardware is just too old to run the new iOS well.
Still using a iPhone 5/C/S?
These models still have a few years to go until they get too old to run future iOS releases. I have seen the iPhone 5 lag compared to the 5S a few times in iOS 8.These are in no way old or bad devices. In my opinion you should stick with any of these devices for another year.
If you find your current device's performance to be sub-par then make the switch. If you have no problems on your current unit then wait it out until the next iPhone gets released (Later this year).
If you want to really use iOS 8 the way apple intended it to then you should definitely upgrade to the new iPhone 6 and 6 Plus - they are truly beautiful devices. At the end of the day it all comes down to budget and personal preference.
