Apple is probably the only electronics company that can upset the smartphone status quo with a single announcement. When the iPhone 6 became official, longtime fans hammered the company's servers and stores for the privilege of being one of its first owners.

It's extremely thin; pleasingly light and eminently comfortable; with a 4.7-inch screen that's gorgeous despite its relatively low resolution

Disappointingly; its battery life isn't much better than what was packed into the iPhone 5s; and lags behind other major competitors.

Once the undisputed leader of the smartphone pack Apple has lost a lot of ground to its competitors who have copied innovated their way to much better hardware and software over the last few years.

Apple's 2014 iPhones have made a predictable dent in both the media and the high-end smartphone market , with the 'upsizing' of the handsets and the simultaneous release of iOS 8 grabbing much attention.

Elegant slimline chassis with 4.7-inch screen; Solid build quality; Performance boost over iPhone 5s; Fast autofocus on iSight camera; Good new features in iOS 8

Battery life may not be enough for power users; No optical image stabilisation on iSight camera; No NFC-enabled Apple Pay support outside the US

Apple's devices have always been about premium design combined with good performance. Not the iPhone 6 though. Apple seems to have stumbled in the effort to make its iPhone bigger.

Best smartphone camera ever; Very good performance; Display is sharp and auto brightness is very good

Battery life needs a lot of work; Design may not please everybody; Very slippery body

After years of mocking rivals for producing ever-bigger screens, Apple finally caved in this year, introducing not one such model, but two: the iPhone 6 with a 4.7in screen, and the iPhone 6 Plus with a 5.5in screen.

No doubt I'm big fan of apple products.I bought apple 6 16gb last month . So here's its most unusal pros and cons pros - -Relatively large, high-quality 4.7"(1334x750) display in a pocketable size. -High quality cameras. -Less expensive upfront than the iPhone 6 Plus.

It's a brave new world for Apple's larger iPhone, and it's much the better for it

The folks in Cupertino have brought the iPhone into 2014 in typical Apple fashion: by implementing deceptively simple upgrades with admirable finesse. The new iPhone is more than just a bundle of software refinements mated to a larger display; it's a near-perfect blend of new ideas and proven, honed...

 Outstanding build quality and feel in hand;  iOS more adaptable and capable than ever before;  Solid acoustic experience from earpods to loudspeaker;  iPhone app/accessory ecosystem still the strongest of all platforms

The iPhone 6 is available, directly from Apple, in Silver, Gold, and Space Gray trims and capacities of 16GB ($649), 64GB ($749) or 128GB ($849). This being Apple, there's no MicroSD expansion; the capacity you buy is what you're stuck with for the duration of your time with the phone

If you are an iPhone user, and you specifically want an iPhone to be your next smartphone, the iPhone 6 is great, but of course the iPhone 6s is even better. It's going to come down to budget ultimately, as the iPhone 6 is a brilliant iPhone that'll save you a few pennies if you're set on getting an...

In the iPhone 5 review, I remember writing that, "As Android manufacturers continue to flood the market with absurdly large phones, it's good to see Apple Think Different." Not any more though, as Apple has changed. It's no more a company under Steve Job's leadership, that did things differently.

Great user experience; Premium metal body; Sleek design; Excellent sound output; very good camera; Long battery life; Excellent for gaming; Rich App Store

Lacks mass storage mode; Supports few video formats; Lacklustre maps; Lacks FM Radio; Reachability feature is stupid
