Rajni JainHere comes the most awaited phone of the year.
With iPhone 6 and 6 Plus Apple had moved into the bigger screens territory. Unlike series of 4-4s-5-5s-5c.... this time Apple has came with a phone which is bit different than predecessors. The new phones will have a pretty powerful processor - The 64-bit CPU architecture-based A8 processor is expected to be 20% faster in application processing and 50% faster in rendering graphics compared to its predecessor.
The phone is pretty thick iPhone 6 and 6Plus are respectively 6.8 and 7.1 thin; much thinner than old iPhones (though still not the thinnest as the title still remains with Gionee Elife S5.5 India Launch Happens - All You Need To Know).
The expected price for unlock version is expected to be 40000 / 45000 respectively.
Million dollar question would be when Indian would get the first chance to have a glimpse of it? If soon, are you all game for it? -

Certainly not, Phone of year should go to Xiomi Mi3.Rajni JainHere comes the most awaited phone of the year.
and here you can buy Apple Nexus 4 and Apple Note 3 in 50K 😁.
For today Note4 has the best spec.
And for those who say QHD is waste please see this have some research.
Unless you can give 7+ MP in 2 degree of vision, it's not wasted.
see at 6:14.

Kaustubh KatdareFor the first time, they got the screen size right. 5.5" FTW! Now I can think of switching to iPhone. But that's step #2. Step #1 is getting filthy rich.

Abhishek RawalCould always look at what Samsung released 2 years ago (minus ARM64), should get you all the info of the current Apple release. I guess it's 2012 for Apple.

Ankita Katdare#-Link-Snipped-# The second review comes after the market has gotten used to having/using the over-sized phones for quite some time now.
I get your point though. 😀
Remember the saying? - "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you and then you win!" 😁 -
PensuLooks like most of the people here are not liking it. I am not a Apple fan, but you can't ignore the innovation and energy they bring in their products. Particularly the camera and the health app. And don't forget the graphics and resolution the new A8 supports! Apple pay is a good idea too, though it won't be much of a hit here, but still it's a good thinking. And I like the watch. Yes, doesn't look much good, but it does much more than moto gear and it has a digital crown too! Basically, if you leave the price part away, iPhone 6 and 6 plus are actually a thing of beauty.
