Android-Busting iPhone 6 Concept: Waterproofed iOS 7 Phablet Boasts of Wireless Charging, LED Notification as New Killer Features
Thin, slim but with a 1080p Full HD massive phone screen have become mainstays of the numerous iPhone 6 concepts, more of which we'll get to see as the rumoured Apple phablet's June 2014 release date nears.
But a new render of the large-screen smartphone, a product of the collaboration between Ran Avni and Uygar Kaya, pointed to impressive twists - it is water and dust resistant, has LED notifications and can be juiced up wirelessly.
In short, the iPhone 6 is aiming to win back Apple fans wooed by Android smartphones with the killer capabilities mentioned above.
Nowadays, gadget lovers immediately associate waterproof and dustproof features with the Sony Xperia Z, introduced earlier this year. The new iPhone 6 concept makers believe that Apple will reward its millions of fans with a new handset that is able to withstand the intrusion of elements.
Also, the addition of flashing LED lights to call users' attention is a welcome improvement, matching what most of iPhone's current Android challengers are capable of doing at the moment.
And the icing on the cake comes in the form wireless charging, a feature that modification experts have already given to the iPhone 5. With the iPhone 6, powering up without the annoying wires is part of the package, right out of the box, at least according to the render provided by Messrs Avni and Kaya.
Their creation, however, steers away from the oft-mentioned wrap-around display with invisible touchscreen phone controllers. Instead, the design keeps the well-loved iPhone 5 template but with a stretched front screen, likely to reach 4.8-inch as mentioned in previous analysts' projections.
The control keys such as the envisioned volume rocker, nonetheless, reflect the wave of the future - touch sensitive and without moving part for equal efficiency and durability.
Otherwise, the concept retains much of the rumoured iPhone 6 characteristics - top-notch camera specs with bits of variation and a Retina screen but with a tad enhancement and still keeping with Tim Cook's pronouncement of no technology trade off.
Analysts are convinced the iPhone 6 will start rocking the tech world on a scheduled June 2014 release date, its superb hardware specs working in tandem with cutting-edge software features courtesy of the heavily revised iOS 7.
