From disassemble iPhone 6 Plus and confirm that the terminal comes with only 1 GB of RAM, now it is the turn of the 6 inch iPhone 4,7. iFixit surprises us again with a complete guide with the steps to follow to access the innards of the Apple phone, and incidentally, reveals some of its best kept secrets.
In the case of the iPhone 6, we see that the terminal hardly presents differences at the component level with respect to the iPhone 6 Plus. Perhaps the most remarkable thing is the difference in battery capacity, being 6 mAh in the iPhone 2.915 Plus while in the iPhone 6 it is 1.810 mAh, a little higher than that of the iPhone 5s which is around 1.500 mAh.
This increase in battery capacity does not seem to translate into greater autonomy since the iPhone 6 also offers a larger screen, therefore, the increase in consumption is offset with a slightly larger battery. In this regard, if we want to enjoy longer use times, we will have to choose the iPhone 6 Plus since it is the model that truly has a large battery.
After seeing the exploded view, it does not seem so complicated to repair some of the most common components such as the screen. Then in practice it depends on the ability of each one but judging by the photography, the arrangement of the components seems quite correct to make the repairs. Of course, the components are increasingly integrated with each other and if we look at the audio jack, we will see that it is attached to the Lightning connector so in case one of the two fails, we will have to forcibly replace two elements of the iPhone 6 even if one works perfectly, with the consequent increase in the cost of the part that this implies.
I do not think that "If we want more autonomy we have to choose the iphone 6 plus because it has more battery" NO!
That is not the question we have to ask ourselves to choose the plus or the normal, yes, it is better in many ways, camera, screen, battery ... but we have to see it as different devices, at least that's how I see it.
I can not carry almost a tablet in my pocket, it is unfeasible, I love the size of the iPhone 6 and that will also carry more comfortably monitor my physical activity, so asked the question of what size you stay you can not change to the plus and vice versa, you have to screw with its disadvantages and enjoy its advantages, you only have to choose the capacity and the color.
In conclusion I think we should not consider taking the plus for its larger battery, I hope the battery could have the camera and pixel density that the plus has, but imagine walking with those 5,5 ′. I keep the 4,7 ′ for me, it is better than the plus, because of its size
I say the same, these blogs want to put us through the eyes that one does not know how to choose well ... and all just to campaign.
I understand that each user chooses according to their needs ... I do well with a 4.7 ′ device, but a 5.5 ′ device is too big for me to have in my jean pocket ...
Now, I imagine that an executive who always wears a suit at the office, since the 5.5 ′ fits him well in his front pocket.
Good!
You have the reason in both comments ... I also have to say that you don't have to look at the size of the iPhone "in your pocket" ... I mean, I don't know about you, but when I sit down, I take my mobile out of my pocket, because even an iPhone 5s, in the pocket annoying.
Standing tall, the size 5,5 in most jeans (unless you go like the paper of a chupachus ... fully attached to the leg), it fits perfectly ...
But finally, what you have to look at is whether the user is going to use the BIG SCREEN of 5'5 "to make the leap to this terminal ... because if not, the best thing is to opt for the iPhone 6 normal.
I, who am a programmer and am involved in this world, prefer to have a device that meets my mobile and tablet needs without becoming a tablet, and that its autonomy gives me a little more than I need per day ... Therefore, I will choose the iPhone 6 Plus ...
If what you want is to enter Facebook, play a little bit, WhatsApp and 2 more bullshit from a smartphone, then the best thing is that you choose the iPhone 6.
A greeting!
Héctor I like the comments you put here because they are right and well founded. I have to say that this would be my first smartphone because I still have a tiny button that only serves to call, send SMS's and I do not want to fail in my decision with the iPhone. And in fact what worries me most personally is the issue of the battery. And yes, I would only use it for the "bullshit" as you say (Facebook, a photo, whatsapp, maps, ...). I have a 3rd generation iPad and I don't think it would put movies on an iPhone. And when it comes to music with spotify, you don't have to download music from iTunes. My questions would be if I don't use it very continuously and turn it off at night, which is what I always do, would the battery still last me less than a day with 1810mAh)?
Good Nacho!
The iPhone 6 battery is made to last 1 day of normal use ... that is ... the battery performance is the same as that of the battery of its predecessor, the 5S. Therefore, for your use, I think you should opt for the iPhone 6, and not the Plus.
I do not have an iPad ... more than anything because to carry it everywhere, it seems very "junk" ... Not because it weighs, if not because I am not to carry or backpacks, or anything in hand, hehe. Therefore, the iPhone 6 Plus is the answer to what you needed:
- An iphone
- A battery that lasts more than 1 day of normal use
- A screen that would give me to "fix a programming bug" of a website for example, and not die trying to have to scroll the screen 200.000 times to see the code.
Therefore, for this type of profile, the iPhone 6 Plus is perfect 😉
A greeting!
