this episode of TechnoBuffalo is brought to you by go daddy what's going on guys the markings hanging from TechnoBuffalo and today we'll be checking out the iPhone 6 and iPhone 5s and see whether you should upgrade or not so is it worth the upgrade we've already reviewed the iPhone 6 and 6 plus but if you're coming from the older iPhone 5s is the iPhone 6 worth the upgrade in terms of hardware the iPhone 6 features a 4.7 inch display with a resolution of 1334 by 750 the pixel density of 326 PPI equipped with Apple's new dual-core 8a chip clocked in at 1.4 gigahertz comes with 1 gigabyte of ram and a 1810 milliamp battery it now has NFC built in which unfortunately can only be used for Apple pay at the moment and it comes in space grey gold and silver now storage option includes 16 64 and 128 gigabyte and it's priced at $1.99 $2.99 and $399 respectively with a two-year contract it's packing a whole new 8 megapixel iSight camera in the back that can film in 1080p 60 frames per second in slow motion 720p at 240 frames per second there's a new FaceTime camera up in the front too that features a new sensor with the larger aperture which lets an 81% more light into the sensor and that essentially improves face detection in the last for HDR video and burst mode iphone 5s on the other hand features a 4-inch display with a resolution of 11 36 by 640 and a pixel density of 326 PPI its equipment apples dual-core a7 chip clocked in at 1 point 3 gigahertz it comes with 1 gigabyte of RAM a 1570 milliamp battery and storage options of either 16 or 32 gigabytes for $99 and $149 with a two-year contract it comes in space grey gold and silver and the iPhone 5s also carries an 8 megapixel iSight camera though without the newer sensor you can film in 1080p at 30 frames per second and slow-motion 720p at 120 frames per second now when it comes to design Apple is taking a very different approach with the iPhone 6 gone are the Sham furred edges that lived on iPhone 5s in favor of a curve more unibody look the sleep/wake button has been moved to the right side of the device or easy access while the volume buttons are now more elongated and easier to press the most noticeable difference between the two is how thin the iPhone 6 is compared to the iPhone 5s the iPhone 6 is just 6.9 millimeters compared to the 7.6 millimeter iPhone 5s both iPhone 6 and 5s have aluminum backs and toughened glass fronts and they both feel like premium devices the six is rounder design is definitely starting to grow on me and I think it's the perfect form factor it's not too big where it's unwieldy and not too small where it's similar to the 5s screen you get bumped up from four inches to 4.7 inches and the iPhone 6 feature is 38% more pixels than the 5s but it's not necessarily sharper than the 5s both phones at 326 PPI displays which means both have nearly identical screens of course a larger display is always going to be a bit more satisfying for browsing the web watching videos and playing games though the iPhone 6 does feature dual domain pixels for wider viewing angles and better contrast ratios in terms of camera I've always like the iPhones camera and how it handles exposure colors in detail though Apple hasn't really changed a great deal in the camera the iPhone 6 it still has an 8 megapixel sensor it still has an F 2.2 lens which is what the iPhone 5s has though the new sensor is what Apple is pushing towards consumers it's focused pixel technology provides the sensor with more information about your image which gives you better and faster autofocus and clearer images indoors and outdoors both the 5s and 6 captures great images color seems a bit more accurate on a 6 over the 5s and when it comes to camera performance the 6 outperforms the 5s here if focus is really quick and works well in low light and the other advantage of the iPhone 6 is the ability to film in 1080p 60 frames per second in 720p at 240 frames per second which includes cinematic video stabilization and continuous autofocus whereas the 5s can only shoot at 1080p at 30 frames per second and 720p at 120 frames per second if you're in a video the 6s camera is a great upgrade over the 5s but photo quality is nearly identical let's take a quick break from this video and thank our friends over at GoDaddy it's go time and go dad easier to help you kick butt online

for details battery life Apple is chosen to make the iPhone 6 slimmer rather than significantly adding to the battery life the iPhone 6 is equipped with a 1810 milliamp battery while the iPhone 5s is equipped with a 1570 milliamp battery the iPhone 5s is battery life is roughly the same as the iPhone 6 and we got about an hour of difference between the two phones software both are pretty much the same the iPhone 5s can be updated to the latest iOS 8.1 where apps like the Apple Store uber target and a few more have support for Apple pay using the 5s is touch ID overall there's no difference between the iPhone 6 and iPhone 5s in this department they're both pretty fast and I haven't really noticed any big difference between the two so is it worth the upgrade it's so so if the slightly better camera screen Apple pay matters to you more than battery life then I would upgrade the iPhone 6 myself personally would still choose a 6 plus over the 6 because it offers a bigger screen with landscape support throughout I owe s as a better battery life and has optical image stabilization which the 6 doesn't offer the 6 in my opinion is just an incremental upgrade from the 5s and doesn't really feature anything breathtaking anyways that's it for this video guys if you guys have any suggestions on which devices you'd like to see next let us know in the comments down below and as always
