“My biggest complaint about the Apple iPhone during my previous brief periods of ownership was that the screen was too small to use. Specifically, I couldn’t type on the crowded buttons without a substantial error rate that was frequently exacerbated by Apple’s idiosyncratic auto-correct feature,” Wayne Rash writes for eWeek. “Worse, the tiny screen made reading Websites and other online information nearly impossible for me.”
“But when Apple announced the new 4.7-inch screen on the iPhone 6, I was heartened,” Rash writes. “Once I received and unpacked the iPhone 6, the improvement in size was obvious. I didn’t need to squint to read the screen, and the screen was big enough to reduce the error rate when I typed.”
“In daily use, I found that the iPhone 6 is a substantial improvement over the iPhone 5s. The larger screen makes a huge difference,” Rash writes. “Plus, the iPhone 6 is faster, and it communicates faster because it will work with 802.11ac on 2.4GHz and 5GHz, and it’ll work with faster forms of LTE.”
