The smartphone received a 8MP camera, but the company says there are improvements. You can make panoramas of up to 43MP. Unfortunately, there is no optical image stabilization to iPhone 6, but the iPhone 6 Plus has it.

Apple’s Watch product could transform Apple into a fashion company. Or at least that was the impression Apple left after the event in Cupertino, where iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus were presented on fast forward, while to Apple Watch was dedicated good full minutes. At the launch were invited many fashion journalists.

Apple Watch comes with two screen sizes, 33mm and 42mm, and at both were included sapphire, which provides a better resistance. These will be a version with 18-karat gold, called Apple Watch Edition, but for those who don’t have the money, will be an aluminum and stainless steel versions, called Apple Watch Sport.

The screen understands different touches, when you simply press and and when you press harder, and apps will benefit from this. Moreover, users can set themselves what to happen at every kind of press. Apple Watch will not be always turned on, but is activated when you lift your hand up.

Another thing is that Apple Watch has a key on the side, which can be spun to zoom the maps application.

At the presentation last night I found out that Siri and Apple Watch befriended , and you can dictate questions. Like on Android Smart Watches , notifications on your phone can be displayed on Apple Watch.

Apple’s intelligent clock can  monitor your heart rate, but when you run, it uses the iPhone’s GPS to determine your position.

Apple Watch can be used to make payments directly from your account.

Apple Watch will be available early next year, and the price will be $ 350 in the USA. To use it, you should have at least an IPhone 4S.
