A closer look: iPhone 6, 6 Plus design

2014-09-16
thin curved in a whole new design I'm Scott Stein and this is how the new iPhone 6 and 6 plus are shaped unlike the iPhone 5s or even the iPhone 5 that industrial squared off look is gone now these phones feel a lot thinner and they're also rounded you've got metal on the back gone is the glass completely and the front the glass is actually curved the screens not curved but on the sides it actually curves around the edges so it has a very round smooth feel comfortable and the glass almost feels like the screen is floating off at a tiny bit now the home button is still where it is before but where's that sleep/wake button it's not on the top anymore it's actually moved off over here now Android owners may have phones that work like that just remember that if you want to turn this on you're gonna press it like that not up here and the headphone jack moved to the bottom a while ago so that's totally clean you still the same color variations for these you've got space grey silver and gold and that really means a black or white front and on the back different shades of metal and you can see that the design of the shades of metal is closer than before and feels maybe a little more like an iPad or a MacBook both new iPhones push the thinness first and so they might even feel wider and longer than other phones that's because they have a wafer type of approach now the six plus it really shows up and the six you realize that when you're holding it it feels great in the pocket but you may have to get used to it a bit in your hands that's the iPhone 6 and 6-plus design in a nutshell I'm Scott Stein at CNET for the first look at both phones
