Background

The iPhone 6 Plus is part of the iPhone line, succeeding the iPhone 5s. Apple held an event to formally introduce the phone (and its little brother, the iPhone 6) on September 9, 2014. Notable features include a new 5.5" Retina HD display, an updated body styling that is .5 mm thinner than the 5s, and NFC capability for Apple's new mobile payment system Apple Pay. The iPhone 6 Plus also features expanded fitness-tracking abilities with a new fitness-tracking application powered by the updated M8 motion coprocessor and a barometer used to sense elevation. The 5.5" screen on this iPhone is the larger version of the iPhone 6, and was Apple's first plus-sized phone.

Identification

You can identify the iPhone 6 Plus by one of the following model numbers etched into the back case:

  • A1522
  • A1524
  • A1593

The iPhone 6 Plus (along with the 6) was the first iPhone to introduce a glass screen with curved edges. The back case was made entirely from aluminum, with curved edges rather than the flat design found in the iPhone 4 and 5. The power button was moved to the right side of the phone, with the volume and ring/silent switch still on the left. An AUX port can be found on the bottom beside the charging port, and a SIM tray was located on the right side below the power button.

The iPhone 6 Plus can be differentiated from the iPhone 6 by its 5.5 in diagonal screen (relative to the 4.7 in screen of the standard model).

The iPhone 6 Plus can be differentiated from the iPhone 6s Plus by the lack of an "S" printed on the back of the phone underneath "iPhone".
