Apple iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus hit store shelves
It's time to upgrade! The latest version of the iPhone has hit store shelves.
Anxious Apple fanatics lined up early to get their hands on either the iPhone 6 or the iPhone 6 Plus, with some even waiting in line overnight. Workers at the AT&T store at the Bay Plaza Mall handed out free snacks to those standing in line to make the wait more pleasant.
The iPhone 6 has a 4.7-inch display, while the Plus version is a full 1.5 inches bigger with a 5.5-inch screen. The new model is being dubbed as Apple's biggest system makeover ever.
Both feature a faster A8 processor, an improved camera with optical image stabilization and a way to measure exercise activities that can be integrated with the new Apple watch.
Apple says it sold a record 4 million smartphones last Friday, the first day the iPhones were available for preorder.
