Apple’s new iPhone 6 has been brought to consumer market in many countries. Comparing to the previous series of iPhone 5S much fulfilling features are included in the new series.This year Apple has also launched larger screen sized iPhone 6S Plus along with iPhone 6S series which is more like a phablet. The iPhone 6 and 6 plus both have improved display with bigger screen sizes and better image stability in camera over the previous versions. Some features like improved A8 processor with iOS 8, LTE and Wifi Speed, better camera autofocus and image stability, Apple Mobile Pay Wallet and more storage capacity up to 128GB is sufficiently much to satisfy every  iPhone 6 and 6 Plus buyers.

Analyst predicts apple will sell about 7 to 15 million phones in opening weekend. Apple had sold about 9 million iPhone 5S and 5C series last year and every time the opening weekend sales has more to do with apple’s manufacturing concern than the end market demands. Though much android phones at lower price offer the same features as compared to expensive iPhone 6 series but there is good reason to switch from  android to iPhone 6 because of its sheer attractiveness. For existing iPhone users and old iPhone users the improved A8 processor and better screen size and resolution is much a new trendy feature to go along with. So they can buy the new iPhone 6 series now or else upgrade to iOS 8 and still enjoy the existing phone till end of the year when prices may come down.
