Its endurance rating of 61 hours is modest by today’s standards but was competitive at launch.
Apple iPhone 6 Specs vs Newer iPhones
Compared to modern iPhones (like iPhone 15, 14,13,12), the iPhone 6 lacks advanced features like Face ID, 5G connectivity, and ProMotion displays. However, it remains a cost-effective option for users with basic needs.
Does the iPhone 6 Support iOS 13?
No, the iPhone 6 supports iOS updates only up to iOS 12.5.6. This limits app compatibility and access to the latest features.
Is iPhone 6 Still Good in 2024?
The Apple iPhone 6 is outdated but still functional for basic tasks like calls, texts, and light apps. However, its lack of support for modern software makes it less viable as a primary device in 2024. It may work as a backup or secondary phone but is not ideal as a primary device in 2024. If you are looking for longevity and advanced capabilities should consider newer models.
Recommendation: If you’re upgrading, consider the iPhone SE or other affordable modern iPhones that combine classic design with updated hardware and software.
