is even larger than the iPhone 6. The Plus is not just the bigger, it comes
with higher resolution and more pixel density. iPhone 6 with 4.7-inch display,
has 1334 x 750 resolution and 326ppi density, while the Plus comes with 1920 x

Size and Weight – iPhone 6 vs iPhone 6 Plus
Dimensions wise, iPhone 6 measure at 5.44 x 2.64 x 0.27
inches (138.1 x 67 x 6.9mm) and weighs at around 4.55 ounces (129g). On the

6.22 x 3.06 x 0.28 inches (158.1 x 77.8 x 7.1mm) measurements.
Despite the fact that iPhone 6 will be easier to use in one
hand than the 5.5-inch variant, still these new devices with bigger dimensions
will take some getting used to for the long term iPhone users.
Camera – iPhone 6 vs iPhone 6 Plus
Apple has never joined the megapixels race when it comes to
the camera in iPhone and has kept the same 8 megapixel as seen on the iPhone
5S, iPhone 5C/5 and iPhone 4s. Both of the new iPhone models come equipped with
8-megapixel lens, however, the iPhone 6 Plus has additional image
stabilization. Which is a great feature when you’re in a shaky position to
capture a picture or record a video.
Both phones get an upgraded ‘True Tone’ flash for more
realistic lighting, faster autofocus, faster face and smile detection, and
continuous autofocus in video recording. Both phones are capable of
capturing 1080p video at 30fps and 60fps as well as 720p video at
120-240fps in slo-mo.
Battery – iPhone 6 vs iPhone 6 Plus
Both iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 comes with stronger battery pack
when compared to the iPhone 5s. When battery time is to be compared of both
phones with the iPhone 5s, the iPhone 6 Plus is the winner as it packs huge
battery because of its larger housing. Here’s a chart of comparing battery
performance of the three iPhones.
