It’s safe to say that our generation is obsessed with technology. Over a week ago, Apple came out and launched their brand new iPhone 6, and iPhone 6 Plus where they hit record high with pre-sales topping over four million dollars in just the first 24 hours. Apple stated in their press info that the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus are the biggest advancements in iPhone history, featuring two new models with a 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch retina screen. Okay so they’ve made the screen significantly bigger, but why? Lets go back maybe 7-8 years ago when people wanted that small flip phone. All of a sudden the trend has changed from small compact phones to 5 and a half-inch screens! What absolutely kills me about these two new devices being released is the price. The iPhone 6 is priced at $199 for the 16GB, $299 for the 64GB and for the first time, a new 128GB for $399. The iPhone 6 Plus is priced at $299 for the 16GB, $399 for the 64GB and $499 for the new 128GB. Those are prices under contract!
Now, to be fair, I do own an iPhone 5s, but I’ll be honest with you, it’s probably the best phone iPhone released. Its sleek, its small, it fits in my pocket, and it doesn’t look as “cheap” as the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus.Now there has been a lot of controversy with Apple’s new product as much of the features are fairly similar to the Samsung Galaxy phones. I have attached a funny commercial that Samsung came out with mocking Apple’s new phone.
All in all, technology in our generation is remarkable, especially when it comes to a cellular device instead of something else more “techy”, people buy these things to keep up to date with the newest of innovations. Although I do support apple and their products their new phones are something I don’t see buying anytime soon.
