iPhone 6 1586 which country. What is the difference between Rostest iPhone and other models. Display and multimedia capabilities

Here, Apple introduced the world to the new iPhone 6 models! The phones will be available starting September 19 in the US, Canada, England, Germany and select Asian countries. It's no secret that despite the simplicity of managing the phone, it remains a high-tech gadget with serious characteristics. Therefore, it is very important to buy an original iPhone 6, choose the right model, what is the difference between iPhone 6 models. If you choose the wrong model, then, alas, some features of the phone may not be available, such as high-speed Internet LTE (4G).

At the moment, Apple offers the buyer two models of the iPhone 6 (iPhone 6 Plus) - A1549 and A1586. On the surface, they are the same, but technically there are some differences between them. We are especially interested in iPhone 6 support for LTE networks from Russian operators (Megafon, MTS, Beeline).

Difference between iPhone 6 (iPhone 6 Plus) models:

1) Model iPhone 6 A1549 (A1522)

This modification supports 16 bands (frequencies) of LTE (4G) networks: (Frequencies 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 13, 17, 18, 19, 20, 25, 26, 28, 29), HSPA+ / UMTS / DC-HSDPA (800, 850, 900, 1800 , 1900, 2100 MHz) and GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz).

Model A1549 is sold mainly in the US, which means that it will be cheaper to purchase than any other model in the world. Also, these characteristics indicate the support of the 7 and 20 LTE frequencies we need, which means that this model will work in the LTE networks of our operators.

Also, it is worth noting that the device of this model is equipped with a US standard charger, and in order to charge the device in Russia, you will need an adapter. Our company provides such an adapter free of charge to each buyer.

2) Model iPhone 6 A1586 (A1524)

This modification supports 20 bands (frequencies) of LTE (4G) networks: (Frequencies 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 13, 17, 18, 19, 20, 25, 26, 28, 29, 38, 39, 40, 41), HSPA+ / UMTS / DC-HSDPA (800, 850, 900, 1800, 1900, 2100 MHz) and GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz).

Model A1586 is sold mainly in Europe, which means it costs more than model A1549. As expected, the characteristics indicate full support for the 7 and 20 LTE frequencies we need, which means that this model will also work in the LTE networks of our operators (Megafon, MTS, Beeline).

The device of this model is equipped with a European standard charger, and in order to charge the device in Russia, you do not need an adapter. We recommend this modification for purchase.

Do not forget that all device modifications will work in Russia, Europe and other countries with any SIM card only if they have not been blocked under the operator (FreeSIM or NeverLock). Usually blocked devices can be identified at an ultra-low price - their cost is from $10 to $200.

Conclusion:

Theoretically, the A1586 model is better, as it supports 20 frequencies, instead of 16 in the A1549 model, that is, this model is more versatile in terms of LTE. In practice, few people will notice any differences, both models will work in the LTE networks of our operators, so you can safely take the cheaper version of the A1549.


Gray iPhones are always popular in our country in the first days after the start of sales around the world. The reason is simple - Russia usually receives official deliveries only to the so-called second wave of countries in which Apple smartphones are starting to be sold. This usually happens no earlier than a few weeks or even months after the start of sales in the US and other countries.

Of course, one of the most important questions that interests many is whether their iPhone will work in our LTE networks.

The answer to this question can only be given by the operator, and even then not always. We compared the network capabilities of the "sixes", which will be sold in the world from September 19, with the supported LTE networks of our domestic operators. Based on the results of the study, a table was compiled.

In addition, in this material we will touch on the prices of new smartphones from Apple and decide where is the best place to go to get the new product one of the first.

Let's look at supported frequencies, iPhone models and other nuances, since September 19 the start of sales is indicated in just a few states, including: the USA, Canada, Great Britain, France, Germany, Singapore, Japan, Australia and Hong Kong.

In all these countries, pre-order in the online store will be open from September 12. Without these troubles, devices can only be purchased by standing in line in front of Apple Stores.

The difference between GMS and CDMA versions is minor. The latter, in addition to all four generations of networks, support operation in CDMA networks. GSM-models will "swallow" any SIM-cards from operators with 2G-4G connection.

Here, the iPhone will be available both from operators with a contract and without a contract (in the Apple Store or in T-Mobile stores). The situation in each store will be ambiguous, therefore, if you are planning to buy a smartphone in the states, I recommend that you find the contacts of a specific point of sale and find out everything by phone in advance.

So, American operators such as Aio, AT&T, Cricket, T-Mobile or Verizon will have the following smartphone models available:

  • iPhone 6 will only be sold in two models: A1549 (GSM) and A1549 (CDMA)
  • iPhone 6 Plus has the following articles: A1522 (GSM) and A1522 (CDMA)

E These device versions will support the following fourth generation bands: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 13, 17, 18, 19, 20, 25, 26, 28, 29.

Other US carriers (C Spire, Sprint, US Cellular) will have other models available:

  • iPhone 6 Only two models will be sold: A1586
  • iPhone 6 Plus has the following articles: A1524

Accordingly, these models have support for all networks, including CDMA- operators, and also catch extended ranges of bands LTE:

  • FDD-LTE (Bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 13, 17, 18, 19, 20, 25, 26, 28, 29)
  • TD-LTE (Bands 38, 39, 40, 41)

Information about the model without a contract, which will be sold in communication stores T Mobile currently missing. Now it is not yet clear what kind of article this modification will have and, in general, when the exact date of the start of its sales in America. It is worth waiting for the pre-order and already at this stage it will be possible to obtain the necessary information.

As for the prices for new items on the American market, I will give the cost of devices without a contract (in US dollars):

16 GB64 GB128 GB

Apple iPhone 6 Plus

It is worth mentioning that this is the most adequate cost on the entire globe. However, an air ticket to any American city will cost at least twice as much as to the same Berlin. It is worth considering this as well.

Canada

The support situation LTE- networks in this country is absolutely identical to that in the United States. Same SKUs, same cellular bands.Only operators differ: Bell (including Virgin), MTS, Rogers (including Fido), SaskTel, Telus (including Koodo).

For purchase information iPhone in Canada, I will give only a table of prices for models (prices in local currency - Canadian dollar):

Current exchange rate for today: 1 CAD=33, 66 rubles. Very democratic, but there are better options.

France

Only two versions of the devices we are reviewing will be sold here: iPhone 6A1586 and iPhone 6 Plus A1524. However, support for modifications with SKUs A1549 and A1522 guaranteed by the company. In other words: they bought the iPhone A1549 in America, which means that in France it will be possible to use it to the fullest.

In the land of haute cuisine iPhone can be purchased without a contract in Apple Store. New smartphone models will support the networks of operators such as Bouygues, Free, NRJ, Orange, SFR (including La Poste Mobile).

Prices in euros are as follows:

The exchange rate of the European currency as of September 10, 2014 is 47.71 rubles. Taking into account the local tax, which, of course, can be returned at the airport, the game is still not worth the candle.

Great Britain

And here is the situation with models ( A15xx) and band support LTE- networks is the same as in the United States of America, despite the fact that only two models will be sold, as in France. Of course, the British already have their own operators: 3, EE, O2 (including Giffgaff) and Vodafone.

The order of English prices is as follows (British pound):

The current exchange rate of the British pound against the ruble is 1 GBP=59.56 rubles. Medium option. Is it necessary? If you happen to be in London on the 19th of this month, then why not.

Germany

Cellular services in the country of sausages and beer are provided by Deutsche Telekom, O2, Vodafone. And all the same two modifications of smartphones will be sold: A1586 and A1524. If Apple.com not lying, then models for the USA, Canada and Puerto Rico can easily work in German networks on an equal footing with their native German iPhones.

We look at the table and find out for how much they can be bought (euros):

In my opinion, this is the best option, considering also the cost of a flight to Munich, Dresden or any other German city.

Japan

I will not repeat myself, since the layout is absolutely identical to the German, French and other markets. But the Japanese operators, of course, are different: KDDI, NTT docomo and Softbank.

The current ratio to the Russian currency is: 1 JPY = 0.35 ruble, in other words, the maximum iPhone 6 Plus can be purchased in the country for almost 35,000 rubles. Great option. That's just the flight...

If we are talking about local operators, then our own trio reigns here: Optus (including Virgin), Telstra, Vodafone. From September 19, two modifications of the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus will be sold here: A1586 and A 1524. As elsewhere. Support for foreigners under the numbers A1549 and A1522 also guaranteed.

However, buy in Hong Kong iPhone on the day of the start of sales, perhaps the most difficult. The thing is that the queue is even more enterprising than our compatriots, the Chinese. The latter buy up all the stocks of new devices and take them to their shops, where they sell, of course, a little more than the official price. In general, it is necessary to prepare for the worst here.

Now about the most interesting. Can the owners of gray devices brought from abroad hope that their devices will work in the networks of the fourth generation of our operators? The answer to this question is further down the text.

Beeline and Megafon have support for LTE networks 7 (2600 MHz) and 20 (800 DD). Megafon successfully registers devices in its network that are capable of catching the same bands. Accordingly, iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus models which are sold to all over the world, including the US, should easily be picked up by our high-speed networks.

MTS has support for LTE 7 networks. Therefore, any model of a new smartphone from Apple should work successfully in the networks of the largest operator in the CIS.

I would like to draw your attention to the fact that our conclusions are not the ultimate truth. In theory, everything is exactly as stated above. In practice, the situation should not differ for the worse. Key word: "shouldn't". Without real tests, that is, before the start of sales, it is impossible to verify all this data, so let's focus on the information available at this stage.

Outcome

The most profitable way is to fly to Germany for a new iPhone or accidentally end up in Japan during the start of sales. Of course, all this is true for those who passionately dream of getting a new device before others and posting relevant photos on social networks. Well, why is it bad? Kind of an adventure.

New generation of iPhone has been officially available and it comes in two versions this time, the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. Apart from considering between a 4.7-inch and a 5.5-inch iPhone, consumers also have to deal with choosing among different models, including A1549, A1586, A1589, A1522, A1524 and A1593.

I see a lot of people buy iPhone 6 in the U.S. or on eBay with global shipping but many of those phones couldn’t work in their countries because there are some iPhone models manufactured for different wireless carriers and markets. They have almost the same tech specs but there are some differences in cellular connectivity. The situation is much better this year as the new iPhone 6/6 Plus features new VoLTE (Voice over LTE) technology, which means you can buy a GSM version and still can use a full range of services on CDMA networks. For example, you can buy a sim-free T-Mobile phone and completely avoid CDMA to use it on Verizon. Some carriers offering VoLTE are T-Mobile, AT&T and Verizon in the US; Hutchinson Telecom (3), CSL and SmarTone in Hong Kong; SK Telecom, KT and LG U+ in South Korea and StarHub in Singapore.

As VoLTE hasn't become popular worldwide yet, I'd recommend you to check carefully so that you can purchase the most compatible one. The model numbers of iPhones can easily be found on the box or on the back cover. The amount of iPhone 6’s model numbers is , then it is much easier for us to pick the right one. So, what are the differences between those iPhone models? Let's check them out.

The 4.7-inch iPhone 6 comes in 3 model numbers, which are iPhone A1549 (GSM), A1549 (CDMA) and A1586. Here are the details of those models:

1. A1549 (GSM): This model is compatible with 4G LTE networks on some major carriers in the US and Canada like AT&T, T-Mobile, Rogers (Fido). It supports the following LTE bands: 1 (2100 MHz), 2 (1900 MHz), 3 (1800 MHz), 4 (AWS), 5 (850 MHz), 7 (2600 MHz), 8 (900 MHz), 13 (700c) MHz), 17 (700b MHz), 18 (800 MHz), 19 (800 MHz), 20 (800 DD), 25 (1900 MHz), 26 (800 MHz), 28 (700 APT MHz) and 29 (700 de MHz). Besides, the GSM version also works on UMTS/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA (850, 900, 1700/2100, 1900, 2100 MHz) and GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz).

3.A1586: This version is sold locked on some CDMA carriers in the US like C Spire, Sprint and US Cellular. This is the most versatile version but you won't be able to unlock it easily in the US. Therefore, you have more chances to buy the factory unlocked A1586 in Asia or Europe. The unlocked version is also available on Amazon through some retailers. The model works on CDMA EV-DO Rev. A and Rev. B (800, 1700/2100, 1900, 2100MHz), GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900MHz), UMTS/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA (850, 900, 1700/2100, 1900, 2100MHz) TD-SCDMA 1900(F), 2000(A). Compatible 4G LTE bands are FDD-LTE (Bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 13, 17, 18, 19, 20, 25, 26, 28, 29) and TD-LTE (Bands 38, 39, 40, 41 which are corresponding to frequencies 2600 Mhz, 1900 Mhz, 2300 Mhz and 2500 Mhz).

Along with the iPhone 6 Plus A1524, this model supports both TD-SCDMA bands of China Mobile and band 39 for TD-LTE. The bands 38 and 40 are also available, so you absolutely can use LTE in Europe, Asia, and Latin America. The LTE will work on China Mobile Hong Kong, CSL, Hutchison, SmarTone in Hong Kong, Deutsche Telekom, O2, Vodafone in Germany, Optus (Virgin), Telstra, Vodafone in Australia, and 3, EE, O2 (Giffgaff), Vodafone in the UK.

That means 3G and 4G LTE of this phone won't be compatible with China Telecom and China Unicom.

iPhone 6 Plus

At the moment, the 5.5-inch iPhone 6 Plus has 3 model numbers, which are A1522 (GSM), A1522 (CDMA) and A1524.

Interestingly, the main differences between these two models lie in the design and appearance. All other characteristics of the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus are almost identical.

Design iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus with photos of models

In general, even the design of the two models is a bit similar. The noticeable difference is only in size - the screen diagonal of the iPhone 6 is 4.7 inches, while the Plus version has 5.5 inches. Accordingly, the overall dimensions will be different.

But if you look closely, it becomes noticeable that outwardly Plus just repeats the design of 6, with some changes. For example, different colors of the upper blocks with a camera and backlight.

In fact, many users noted that version 6 is too similar to the iPhone 2G model. And indeed, there are similar elements.

Processor, RAM and storage

By default, the iPhone comes with Apple's own-designed processor, which, oddly enough, is called the Apple A8.

In its bowels are placed two cores with a frequency of 1.4 GHz. And it is assembled on the architecture of the 64-bit ARMv8-A type. RAM in the device is available 1 GB. The specifications of the internal memory in the iPhone 6 can be represented by values ​​​​of 16 GB, 32 GB and 64 GB. Interestingly, Apple usually has more space here.

Both the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus have the same set of hardware.

Connectivity, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, navigation and NFC

Since iPhones are always up-to-date, their connectivity is usually in line with current technological innovations. The same is with the characteristics of the iPhone 6 version. Communication standards are supported up to 4G.

Wireless technologies are also represented by Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and NFC. Wi-Fi supports the latest standards up to 802.11 ac. The device can operate in two frequency bands - 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. This is very convenient and will allow you to increase the speed of receiving and sending data, especially in places overloaded with networks.

Bluetooth doesn't really stand out. The usual interface version 4.0. NFC is used to pay for purchases directly by the smartphone itself using Apple Pay technology.

The navigation specifications of iPhones 6 and 6 Plus are represented by a module capable of working in various systems - GPS and GLONASS. Separately, it is worth highlighting A-GPS, which helps to correct data from satellites using the Internet, thereby improving the quality and accuracy of the determination. The smartphone also supports iBeacon technology. With it, you can view the location of friends or special beacons installed in different parts of the world.

Screen size and other display characteristics of iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus

We talked a little about the diagonal at the beginning of the article. Now a little more. The screen is made using IPS technology. The Plus version has a resolution of 1920 by 1080 - that is, FullHD. The final pixel density is 401 PPI. A simple 6 has 1334 by 750 dots. The pixel density of the latter is 326 PPI. These gadgets use a so-called Retina display, which is mostly just a marketing name. In fact, all screens that produce a pixel density greater than 300 are considered Apple retina.

iOS 8 operating system, performance and battery life

The starting operating system supplied to new devices is iOS 8. An update to version 11.3.1 is available for 6 and 6 Plus. As for the overall performance, the gadget gave out about 48,000 in the AnTuTu test, plus or minus 2-3 thousand, depending on the applications running. This is a very good indicator.

Since the screens differ greatly, the batteries used in the versions are different. The 6 uses a 1810 mAh battery, while the Plus version uses a 2915 mAh battery. Despite the energy-efficient processor, with active use, the smartphone has to be recharged during the day.

Touch ID fingerprint scanner, rear and front camera iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus

For the first time, Touch ID was used on the predecessor of version 6 - iPhone 5S.

Now it is installed in all other models of phones and tablets. Two generations of the sensor are known. iPhone 6 and 6 Plus got the first, but 6S and 6S Plus got the second.

Both smartphones - the sixth and "plus" - have identical camera modules. There is only a small difference: the camera of the Plus version has optical image stabilization. However, it is almost impossible to detect a big difference between the pictures. It is likely that the 6 Plus will perform better in cases of hand shaky shooting - assuming the same level of background shaking.

Size and weight of iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus

Naturally, the Plus version is larger and therefore heavier. At the same time, the width of the gadgets has a difference of about 1 cm: for 6 - 67 mm. The length varies already in 2 cm: in 6 - 138 mm. The thickness changes slightly, only by 0.2 mm: for 6 - 6.9 mm. It is quite difficult to detect by eye.

6 Plus is 43 grams heavier than its counterpart and weighs 172 g. The weight has increased due to the use of more battery power.

Overview of iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus Specs

Versions with the letter S came out much later than the simple "sixes" and were a more technological and innovative product.

In particular, the characteristics of the iPhone 6S phone used new hardware, new software, and the available colors were slightly changed. One of the main innovations was the 3D Touch screen, which reacted to the force of the touch. The fingerprint scanner received the second generation.

Memory, processor and operating system iOS 9

The processor, the main characteristic of the iPhone 6S, was installed in both new items more modern - A9. It was also built on a 64-bit architecture, had two cores, but with a higher frequency - 1.8 GHz.

The amount of RAM has also been increased to 2 GB. The gradation of its memory was mainly in two versions: 32 GB and 128 GB.

The standard operating system upon purchase is iOS 9. It can be upgraded to 11.2.6.

Display and multimedia capabilities

The ratio of the sizes and resolutions of the screens of the two smartphones 6S and 6S Plus remained within the logic of its predecessor. "Plus" received a screen of 5.5 inches and a resolution of 1920 by 1080, and the usual 6S - 4.7 inches and 1334 by 750. The technology used in the screens remained the same - IPS.

Communication and interfaces iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus

S-models received new modems and transmitters. The operating frequency ranges up to 4G remained the same for the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus. But LTE has already become noticeably faster. It uses category 6 networks with a bandwidth of 300 Mbps.

Wi-Fi standards are represented by all known, up to 802.11 ac. The module can operate at two frequencies - 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. From navigation, GPS, GLONASS and auxiliary A-GPS can be distinguished.

Battery and other features

Batteries S-ki got different, which is not surprising - after all, their consumers are also different. In the simple version, a 1715 mAh battery is installed, and in the Plus 2750 mAh. In fact, the developers only reduced the battery charge in new gadgets, which affected their autonomy. Stretching all day with a full battery with the active use of most functions is almost impossible without additional recharging.

But the 3D Touch function has pleased fans. The introduction of pressure force has opened up new horizons for using all the functions of a smartphone. Now it has become possible to perform several different actions with essentially the same movement. So-called quick actions have also appeared - that is, by clicking on the application icon harder, you can use some functionality without going into it. This turned out to be a very convenient innovation, although it took some getting used to.

Comparison of the advantages and disadvantages of different iPhone phone models

The entire iPhone 6 line was divided into four different devices, each of which is strikingly different from the others.

Comparison of iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus Specifications

The most important difference between the two models is the size. Accordingly, screen sizes and resolutions also differ. A simple "six" has a diagonal of 4.7 inches, and Plus - 5.5. Inside, both have the same processor, the same graphics core, exactly the same size and type of RAM. The modems and types of supported networks are also exactly the same. The camera modules are similar, but Plus is also equipped with optical stabilization. In general, we can say that 6 Plus is 6 large.

Comparison of iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus

The analogy of the differences in the S series is completely inherited from a simple 6-ki. Hardware, interfaces, capabilities - everything is the same. Only the sizes differ. And just like the 6: 6S has a diagonal of 4.7 and a resolution of 1440 by 750, and 6S Plus - 1920 by 1080 at 5.5 inches. The rest of the specifications of the iPhone 6S Plus are no different from the 6S.

What is the difference between iPhone 6 and iPhone 6S

And here the difference is more noticeable. The dimensions are, of course, the same, but the interior decoration varies greatly.

Firstly, the A9 processor in the 6S is claimed to be more efficient and productive compared to the A8 in the iPhone 6. The frequency with the same architecture is higher, the technical process is newer.

In addition to the fact that RAM was increased in S-ke, its type also represents a newer technology - LPDDR4.

The new modem and transmitter made it possible to increase the speed in 4th generation networks.

The changes affected both cameras. Their resolutions have been increased to 12 MP for the main one and up to 5 MP for the front one. Well, the presence of such new solutions as, for example, 3D Touch tips the scales when choosing towards 6S.

How much do iPhone 6 / iPhone 6 Plus and iPhone 6S / iPhone 6S Plus cost - price overview

All varieties of models of the 6th line can still be purchased in stores.

The pricing for this line is rather strange. For example, 6 by 32 GB is available for 21,500 rubles, but the 6 Plus version with the same characteristics by 16 GB is already for 34,000 rubles. A slightly smaller spread can be observed in the S series: the younger model can be taken for 27,000 rubles, and Plus - for 34,000 rubles.
