Whether you feel like you just bought your iPhone 5S yesterday, or you’ve been awaiting Apple’s next big thing for months, there’s some exciting news coming out of Cupertino, Calif., today.
After a teaser promising a big announcement on September 9th, Apple CEO took the stage to unveil the iPhone 6 and it’s larger-screened companion, the iPhone 6 Plus.
Live updates are streaming from the Flint Center of the Performing Arts at this very moment, and based on what we’re hearing, tech obsessives will happily wait in line for hours when the 6 and 6 Plus hit stores on September 19.
Apple senior VP of worldwide marketing is reportedly making some big promises about the new devices and has referred to them as “the best phones ever made.”
Among the improvements are a sharper camera, a thinner design, and a much bigger screen – particularly on the Plus, which boasts a 5.5 inch display – a full 1.5 inches bigger than the iPhone 5.
Schiller also claims that the new iPhones feature significantly improved battery life – which will come in handy as the phones continue to creep up on tablet-sized displays.
So bust out your crummy old 5S, call your boss and tell him that you’ll need next Friday off. You’ve got an awesome new phone to wait in line for.
Just think, with the bigger screen, it’ll be that much harder (or easier, if you’re into messing with people’s heads) to send naked selfies to the wrong number …
