### iPhone 6 Pros & Cons

 

• Pros:

 

Builds solid and premium feel.

 

Good camera for the time, especially taking photos and videos.

 

Consistent updates (until iOS 12) in the iOS ecosystem.

 

Not bad battery life with average use.

 

• Cons:

 

RAM (1GB) less compared to today, resulting in slowed down working with the applications.

 

– No 3D Touch (added on later models).

 

Low-res screen in comparison to modern iPhones

 

Not water-resistant.

 

The iPhone 6 was an upgrade when it released, but today it feels outdated. But for someone on a shoestring budget or just wanting an entry-level used iPhone, it could still be a suitable choice.
