The Future of iPhones: What to Expect from the iPhone 6

Hey guys, this is Austin and today I'm excited to share with you everything you need to know about the iPhone 6. Recently, I spent some time out in LA taking a look at mockups of the iPhone 6 along with the new sapphire display. If these leaks are true, come September we're going to be looking at the biggest iPhone ever.

For the new design Apple has taken a lot of inspiration from the iPod touch with a smooth, tapered edge that has a very nice feel in the hand. Something that's really impressive is just how thin the phone is - I hardly thought the 5s felt chunky but the 6 is even better. This first mockup is also sporting a much larger display at 4.7 inches, bringing it right in line with other phones like the Moto X and Nexus 5. Not only will it get bigger but Apple will also likely bump the resolution to 1704 by 960, just short of 1080p but still more than detailed enough to be a big improvement over the current iPhone.

However, that's not the only thing that's going to be new with the iPhone 6 screen. Right now, Apple uses sapphire glass for the home button and camera lens on the 5s, however my friend Marques Brownlee got his hands on the full sapphire crystal display for the iPhone 6. First thing I did was look through it and look how clear it was which was pretty cool, I'm not sure if Gorilla Glass is that clear too. But I took a knife to it, I took some keys to it and then I bent it under my own foot, under my own power I tried as hard as I could to shatter it which was probably a bad idea if I actually shattered it, it probably would have hurt a lot but yeah I tried to bend it quite a bit and that is where the first video ended.

So of course we had to find out how much abuse the screen could actually take so with the help of Joe Rogan we put it to the test and you guys can find that video in the link in the description. It's safe to say though that the screen is going to be a lot tougher than on your current phone. There are also a lot of rumors that there will be an even bigger 5.5 inch iPhone 6. Based on the mockup it's very similar to the 4.7 inch model however we might not be seeing it quite as soon as you would expect.

The reason for this delay is likely due to Apple milking the market for longer than they should have, looking at the example of the 3.5 and 4-inch models where they took their time before releasing them. Why are they not going to put a 4.7 out, milk that one this year and all of a sudden 2015 comes, here's the latest and greatest 5.5? I think there's a sweet spot to be had, I've talked about this in previous videos, and the 4.7 for me is really that's the sweet spot as far as I'm concerned.

I still like a smaller display, the Moto X has a 4.7 inch display, love the way that size is in the hand. Right now it seems like the 5.5 inch iPhone 6 will be at least a few months behind the 4.7 inch version but beside the screen size what's the difference? One of the advantages to the bigger display is more space for a larger battery. Many of the rumors are suggesting that the 4.7 inch iPhone 6 will have an 1810 milliampere-hour battery, a bit bigger than the current 5s but a lot smaller than what you might be able to find in other phones.

The difference in size is also going to affect how you use your phone - with a bigger display you'll need more power to keep it running. However, this will also give you more time before you have to recharge. This could make the 5.5 inch iPhone 6 a good option for people who like to watch movies or play games on their phone. But what about the 4.7 inch version - will it still be able to keep up with your needs? The answer is yes, and I think this is going to be one of the biggest selling points of the new iPhone.

So what do you guys think about the iPhone 6? Are you excited for the 4.7 inch, the 5.5 inch version or do you just not care at all? Definitely be sure to let me know in the comments below! Also don't forget to check out all of the other videos that we did on the iPhone 6, so we shot the display with a freaking arrow so if you guys want to check that out, you can see the behind-the-scenes, all of the fun stuff that we did this weekend, the link will be in the description of this video so check out all of the videos and enjoy the extreme consumer durability testing.

Because, you know, scratch tests, drop tests, yeah but shooting with an arrow is something I do with my phones all the time. Anyway guys thank you so much for watching and I will catch you in the next one.

The bigger batteryfor the 4.7 inch model is a nice improvementbut since it's powering a bigger display thedifference isn't that big of a deal. Whatcould help battery life a lot though is thenew Apple A8. The A7 system on a chip fromthe current iPhone is seriously impressiveso for the next generation Apple likely willfocus on improving battery life with a new20 nanometer process while pushing more onthe graphics side for performance. Unfortunatelyone thing that could be a problem is the iPhone6 camera. Odds are we'll see some minor improvementsbut if the mockups are correct the lens willalso protrude from the back of the phone.Apple did the same thing with the iPod touchand while throwing a case on it should fixthe problem having a lens poking out of theback of the phone all the time is a prettymajor problem to me.
