iPhone 6 Plus Unboxing and Hardware Tour

2014-09-19
it's iphone6 day in the iphone six-plus the larger version of the two just arrived I'm Taylor Martin this is PocketNow and this is our iphone six-plus unboxing so this is it this is the iPhone 6 plus the larger brother to the iPhone 6 but it's pretty much what people have been begging Apple for for years now because this this thing is tiny this is the iPhone 5 and if you see in my hands it looks just like a toy it's so small so everyone has been asking Apple for a larger iPhone and as you can tell from the size of this box that's exactly what we got we got two versions this year the iPhone 6 which is 4.7 and this one which is the iPhone 6 plus at 5.5 inches so let's get in the box and see just how big this new iPhone is do have a little cutting tool right here that I like to carry on my keychain let's get in I do know one thing about this box already I have not opened this clearly all the seals are still closed but I do know that there's no branding or no no image on the box this year it's just a little embossed or an outline of an iPhone but no iPhone image which is new but as you can see just going around the box it's exactly what we can expect from Apple very plain very toned down packaging and of course it's wrapped in plastic so let's get that cut open really quickly see what's inside the box that everyone can already guess what's in the box of course this is the 64 gigabyte version so there are three this year you have 16 64 gigabytes and you have 128 which is very nice I almost opted for that but I stayed with 64 gigabytes because I have a 32 gigabyte iPhone 5 right now and I had about 50% storage left the other day when upgrading to iOS 8 so let's get the phone out and immediately you can see it is very very very thin but I will sit this aside because that's what we do to see what's underneath so of course you have your little pool tab reveals this little pamphlet with all your stuff inside your reading materials that I can't manage to get open your leaflets your stickers and all of that but unfortunately this iPhone 5 or iPhone 6 plus from Verizon does not come with a sim removal tool thank you for Ryan I guess I don't really want you to switch out your sim but whatever it comes with a Simonet I'm okay with that your AC adapter as usual and I'm actually interested to see what the amperage is on this because it does have a much larger battery it is still just one amp I don't know if you can see that it's still one amp but this phone does have a much larger battery it's almost 3000 milliamp hours of course we also have your standard lightning cable right here nothing fancy there and your ear pods unfortunately these are not the bone conducting ear pods we heard about just a few days ago these are just your standard ear pods for their nice casing they work in a jam I don't like them but whatever and that's it there's nothing else underneath that so this is the iPhone 6 plus and as you can see it's actually a nice size for my hands which is very nice for me I've been cramped on the iPhone 4 so for such a long time but let's get the plastic off just and I don't ever get these noisy plastics anymore I guess they stopped doing that didn't they don't noisy plastics they're all nice and clean they pull off silent but I'm not your Michael Fisher I don't I don't zoom in for that as you can see on the left side here you have your volume rocker as usual but these are elongated buttons so they're they're very thin and elongated they're they feel really nice and then you have your mute switch there for toggling on mute and your your vibrate and your power button has been moved to the right edge so it's no longer on the top of this because it's too big too hard to reach they moved it to the right edge which you've seen a lot of other manufacturers do as phones got larger there is your SIM tray just below the power button and of course along the bottom you have your speaker your lightning and three point five millimeters around the edges that's all you get so nothing major there but around back there's uh there are a few things to note you have your separated plastic line so you're probably I think they're probably carbonate for your antenna separation and then you have your camera module which for the first time ever is raised so it's not flush with the back of the phone some people aren't very happy about that I'm inside this time you still get one gigabyte of RAM so no improvement there I've already told you 16 64 and 128 gigabytes for storage you have the new Apple a8 with a new m8 Co processor and this time you get a 5.5 inch 1080p iPhone display or Retina display I guess you should call it but while this boots up we're gonna do some really quick size comparisons this is the iPhone 5 look at that that's a sight to see but I also have some other large phones to compare this is the Oppo find 7 a and you can see these are very similar in size the iPhones a little bit taller a little bit skinnier but yeah they're very close in size and this is the ascend mate 7 so this is a 6 inch display with very very little bezel around the screen but let's jump through the set up own give you a close-up of the display so here we have it with it all powered on and jump through all the settings I didn't download any wraps or anything but you can see just how clear it is I don't know if you can see I don't I don't know if the camera does it justice but the ad looks it looks very nice same kind of saturation and pop you get out of a normal iPhone display or the ones we've been used to over the years yeah it looks really good it looks really nice and it's very nice to finally have an iPhone and a size that fits my needs so stay tuned for the full iPhone six-plus review as well as some comparisons and other content right here on the PocketNow channel until next time I'm Taylor Martin and thanks for watching
