The latest trend of the innovative powerhouse, Apple, is to
release new iPhone models as a pair. The iPhone 5C, which comes in a
range of colours, was branded as the "affordable iPhone model". Whereas
the iPhone 5S was branded as their premium model with better features,
and of course arriving at a premium price. The iPhone 6 is their latest
smartphone upgrade, while the 6 Plus is a clear jump into the "phablet"
market as Apple rivals with other major competitors. As with any
manufacturer, Apple bombards the market with advertisements for their
latest releases where profit margins are high and first adopters begin
the trend to get their hands on the latest smartphone devices.
Yet when you compare the prices of all iPhone models on the market along with their true technical differences, there is consistently a significant difference in price yet an insignificant change in capabilities and performance. Is the iPhone 6 really an innovative jump from its predecessor or just a minor step up with a few new gimmicks?
When you compare internal changes, you'll find the newer models will have Apple's latest A-chips at a higher GHz and an increase in processor cores, along with new memory capacities. On paper, these changes sound like worthy reasons to upgrade, but when you compare models in reality, side by side, the changes are small and relative. It may be ever so slightly faster and more responsive, but you'll soon get used to this and notice insignificant differences. The iPhone 6 and 6 Plus are prime examples of Apple bringing new models with elegant designs to appeal to fans yet not actually upgrading much on the inside.
Whether you're a loyal Apple fan with a now old device, or a newcomer looking to dabble in sophisticated, smooth smartphones, it's always worth spending a bit of time trying every model available and consider the real differences between them. You'll find they run similarly, but come at totally different prices. Whatever model you choose, ensure you opt for a suitable internet data package, as all iPhone models tend to eat through data with automatic services constantly updating through 3G and 4G. Most package deals now include unlimited texts as more and more users simply message through internet services anyway, such as Apple's 'iMessage' and Facebook's messaging portal.
Another option to consumers in the UK is to buy the device SIM-free, and purchase a SIM-only contract separately. The advantage of this? Your overall cost, on average, will very likely be significantly lower than if you were to go for a full iPhone contract. SIM only offers tend to be lower priced as no device is provided by the retailer or network, thus passing on these savings to the customer. As long as the customer can purchase their own iPhone, then it is wise to choose a SIM-only contract. Another advantage? More and more SIM-only deals are flooding the market on 30-day rolling contracts, so you won't be locked into the common 18 or 24-month contracts usually advertised.
Thus, it's always recommended to weigh your options, try all devices, decide whether you really need that higher GHz processor, and finally do the maths very carefully when choosing a contract deal. Always ensure your inclusive allowances cover what you will use, as networks charge high prices once you pass those limits. A safe bet is to opt for an optimum number of inclusive allowances as opposed to the most realistic choice.
