Re: New iPhone 6 & 6 Plus phones and Apple Watch
It's just another over priced telephone that is / does the same as all the other 'iphones' before it.
Still I'm sure all the fanboy suckers will fall in love the new 'number'. I think they are getting quite tedious now.

Not quite this new one actually does more and is dramatically better than the last few iPhones.
Last iPhone I owned was the 3G. Been on Android since but this one has me interested.

Re: New iPhone 6 & 6 Plus phones and Apple Watch
It's a sad offering from Apple really. It's specs are no where near as good as android phones that have been out for some time already. While they are offering bigger screens than before, the DPI and quality is far inferior than other phones that came out a year or so ago. It's their first phone with NFC, which they should have included with the iPhone 5, as all the other non-apple phones were getting NFC back then.
This one is for the dedicated apple fanbois, or those that still think it's cool to tell your friends you have an iPhone. For the price it costs, it makes little sense to get it over all the other options. There is nothing to make you go wow, I must get one.

All of Apples disciples will be in line already to give there next donation to the Church of Steve Jobs. Nothing totally new from Apple that has not been done already in most Android phones and the Moto 360 wins the design award for smart watch as far as i am concerned.

Sure are. Flagships come with "quad-HD" screens these days. By quad they mean 1440p which is 'quad-720p'

Pfft. 2012 is being a bit generous. All those features could be had from mods or optional extras before then.
And lets not forget core specs:
iPhone 6
Dual-core 1.4Ghz
1GB RAM
8MP Camera
1.2MP Secondary
Nexus 4
Quad-core 1.5Ghz
2GB RAM
8MP camera
1.3MP Secondary.
No, you really ought to go back to 2011 to find something worse:
Galaxy Nexus
4.65 inches display
720p resolution
Dual-core 1.2Ghz
1GB RAM
5MP camera
1.2MP secondary
(Not to mention the Nexus phones cost a third as much, even back then...)

Re: New iPhone 6 & 6 Plus phones and Apple Watch

Re: New iPhone 6 & 6 Plus phones and Apple Watch
So do the Samsung Galaxy series despite having alienated their entire original fanbase. Selling lots doesn't mean good, and not all good products sell lots either.
In related news, Tesco value also sells by the bucketload.

How so? I've been a user of every version of the Galaxy S since the 2 and only skipped the 5 as I moved to the Note 3. Most people I know are still Galaxy S users.
