It offers 88 percent more viewing area than iPhone 5s. They are the thinnest smart phones ever made by Apple with 6.8mm and 7.1mm for both iPhone 6 and 6 Plus.

The ‘Apple Pay’ feature with Touch ID technology offers more security and enables users to use it as a wallet.  It works with majority of the credit and debit cards of the US banks. The Passbook feature helps in storing the boarding passes, tickets, coupons, and also stores credit and debit card information. Users can add credit or debit card from the iTunes account to Passbook by feeding in their card security code. The iSight camera captures card information immediately. The card whose information was entered for the first time becomes the default payment card. However, users can go to Passbook if they want to pay with another card. The iPhone 6 and 6 Plus have relatively better battery life. The iPhone 6 offers 14 hours of talk time on 3G and run 10 hours of browsing on 3G and 4G networks. The iPhone 6 Plus, will provide 3G talk time of 24 hours and runs for 12 hours of web browsing on 3G and 4G.
