When it was released in 2014 the iPhone 6 was one of the hottest smartphone on the market. Featuring a completely rethought design, Apple loaded the iPhone 6 with a wealth of custom software and hardware features.

Great 4.7-inch screen; Good all-round camera; Class-leading performance; Great new software features

Expensive; Shorter battery life than rivals

For years, Apple held onto the smaller 4-inch screen size despite the growing popularity of 5-inch+ Android phones. The release of the iPhone 6 is Apple's white flag in the small screen department.

Improved processor performance; Good battery life; Excellent contrast and color reproduction; Fast auto-focus technology

Screen isn't full HD; Large bezels around screen

Apple's change to its juggernaut smartphone is here, and it's not just a number change with a fingerprint sensor. This time, the iPhone includes a bigger screen, faster processor, and a new design.

A bigger iPhone; yay; Built beautifully; almost like the iPod Touch as a phone; Reachability (double-tap home) is a neat idea for larger phones; Fast 4G speeds; Finally; 802.11ac is here; Excellent rear camera; iOS 8 now lets you exchange and replace keyboards; With Mac OS X 10.10 "Yosemite," you...

Screen is larger; but not really a huge improvement; Fixed storage with no way of upgrading; Expensive; Slippery; Hand-hold for thumb at the bottom is a bit of a balancing act with a phone this size; NFC can't be used with pretty much anything; Quite a few iOS 8 bugs; Mediocre battery life

There is explosive demand for bigger smartphones. A 4-inch smartphone feels small now; somewhere around 5 inches is the new normal. Yet too many large-screen phones are cumbersome, awkward, and often just plain bad.

Fantastic camera; Gorgeous display; Excellent performance and battery life

No optimization for the larger screen; Unsightly lines on the back; Awkwardly protruding camera lens

There are plenty of little tweaks in Apple's latest smartphone. But the biggest difference is that it's just plain bigger. The iPhone 6 Plus is certainly the largest iPhone Apple has ever released. But that may be too large for some users.

New design more comfortable to hold; Big screen; Improved camera; Giant screen; Long battery life; Extra interface elements in landscape orientation

Hard to hold in small hands; Difficult to use one-handed

Update: Our iPhone 6 review has been updated now that iOS 10.3.1 has launched and iOS 11 is around the corner. It's still one of the best (and a cheaper price) two and a half years on.

Not upto mark for its price range

Good camera; No lags

Front camera could have been better; Battery; Ram

Apple has finally relented to a market that demands bigger and bigger smartphones with its newest hero device, the iPhone 6. As always, Apple has created a phone whose specs aren't terribly impressive on paper - trudging along a year or two behind those offered by Android flagships - but offers a...

Elegant design; Exceptional display quality; Fast and reliable performance; Top-notch camera; TouchID button is more useful

Insufficient battery life; Lackluster front-facing camera; Too little storage on default model; no microSD support; Non-replaceable battery; Not dust- or water-resistant

Even with a slightly larger screen, the iPhone remains comfortable to hold. With fast performance, a great display, an elegant new design and a much-needed software update, it's one of the best smartphones you can buy right now.

Sleek new design; Great display; Comfortable to hold; Fast performance; Generally good camera; Large; beautiful display; Great camera with optical image stabilization; Long battery life; Fast performance

Battery life could be better; Lacks optical image stabilization; NFC can only be used for mobile payments; One-handed use is frustrating and uncomfortable; NFC can only be used for mobile payments

Great cosmetic condition! Only a small scratch so minimal it's hardly noticeable unless it's viewed on a all-white background. Besides that I received headphones,charger and usb cable. For less than $400 it's a great buy! Thanks and best regards!
