On September 9th, Apple announced the iPhone 6 line up alongside the much anticipated Apple watch. As a current iPhone 5 user, I was eagerly anticipating the arrival of the new iPhone.
Last night, I got home from a quick business trip to the East Coast and now I am eagerly awaiting a text from Apple to come pick up my new iPhone 6. As a tech gadget guy, I am stoked about this phone for a few reasons:
- Bigger Screen – the new screen (4.7”) should allow me to watch the occasional video, play a game, journal or read a book a little easier. I have an iPad Mini so the larger phone was not that much of an attraction for me.
- TouchID – my current phone does not have the fingerprint reader and I am looking forward to utilizing this technology alongside one of my favorite apps – 1Password.
- HealthKit – I know this isn’t exclusively the phone part, but the integration of the A8 / M8 chips in concert with iOS 8 should make tracking steps and other health related data really accessible.
I cannot wait to share my thoughts on the new iPhone and iOS 8 in the coming weeks. I hope you had a great week and if you haven’t had a chance to check out the announcement of the iPhone and Apple Watch, check out the Apple announcement.
