Smart Communications Launches Apple iPhone 6 and 6 Plus Postpaid Plans via Smart Infinity VIP Welcome Event
Last night, at the Salon De Ning of Manila Peninsula Hotel in Makati City, the country's largest network and global wireless leader Smart Communications officially launched its postpaid plan bundles for two of the most anticipated smartphones of the year, the Apple iPhone 6 and Apple iPhone 6 Plus.
The event - called Smart Infinity ViP Welcome - saw the gathering of Smart Infinity's top-level subscribers as well as those who pre-ordered the iPhone 6 or 6 Plus from the MVP-company's premium postpaid brand.
“The iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6 Plus, the year’s most awaited smartphones, truly deserve the VIP welcome from Smart Infinity. Now, our members can enjoy a bigger and better iPhone experience only from the country’s biggest mobile network,” said Ms. Julie Carceller, Head of the Smart Infinity Business Group at Smart.
Apple iPhone 6 in a Nutshell
Flaunting a re-imagined ultra-slim aluminum enclosure with rounded edges, Apple iPhone 6 is equipped with a 4.7-inch Retina HD display with 1334 x 750 resolution, providing 38 percent more viewing area than its beautiful predecessor, the iPhone 5s.
Apple iPhone 6 is powered by a second generation 64-bit desktop-class architecture Apple A8 chip that - according to the company - offers faster performance and is more energy efficient, delivering higher sustained performance with great battery life. "With Metal, a new graphics technology in iOS 8, developers can take performance of the A8 chip even further to bring console-class 3D games to iPhone. The A8 chip also includes a new, powerful Apple-designed image signal processor that enables advanced camera and video features."
The device also has an M8 motion co-processor that's there to gather motion data from the accelerometer, gyroscope, compass and the new barometer that senses air pressure to provide relative elevation. This unique co-processor is capable of continuously measuring your motion data, even when the phone is inactive or asleep, saving battery life for fitness apps that use sensors all day. With Apple iOS 8, motion data gathered by M8 appears in the Health app (and other upcoming similar applications) so users can see how many flights of stairs they've climbed, or how far they've walked or run.
As for the phone's imaging capabilities, there's the new iSight camera with an improved sensor featuring Focus Pixels for faster autofocus, letting you capture any moment really fast. High-definition video capture on iPhone 6 has been improved and now has higher frame rates up to 60fps for 1080p video and 240fps for slow-motion clips, as well as continuous autofocus, cinematic video stabilization and time-lapse video. The FaceTime HD camera in front now captures over 80 percent more light with a new sensor and larger f/2.2 aperture delivering clearer and brighter selfies plus it comes with advanced new features including burst mode and HDR video.
In a nutshell, "The Apple iPhone 6 isn’t simply bigger -- it’s also better in every way. Larger, yet dramatically thinner. More powerful, but remarkably power efficient. With a smooth metal surface that seamlessly curves to meet the new Retina HD display. It’s one continuous form where hardware and software function in perfect unison, creating a new generation of smartphone by the American company that’s better by any measure."
Meet Apple iPhone 6 Plus
Practically just a stretched-out, larger version of the smaller co-flagship Apple iPhone 6, the metal-clad Apple iPhone 6 Plus comes with a number of cool new features here and there -- apart from flaunting a larger 5.5-inch Full HD Retina Display.
Like the regular iPhone 6, the Plus version is equipped with the new 8 MegaPixel iSight camera with improved sensor that now comes with 'Focus Pixels' for faster autofocus in addition to its large 1.5-micron pixels and ƒ/2.2 aperture. But what makes Apple iPhone 6 Plus' main camera module even more special is that it features Optical Image Stabilization, which lets you capture crisp and clear shots even when you're walking or your hand is shaking as it compensates for movement while you're taking photos.
As for video capture, you can enjoy higher frame rates up to 60fps for 1080p video and 240fps for slow-motion clips, as well as continuous autofocus, cinematic video stabilization and time-lapse video. On the other hand, the FaceTime HD front cam - with all-new burst mode and HDR video - is now capable of capturing over 80 percent more light with its more powerful sensor and larger f/2.2 aperture for brighter and more vibrant selfies.
“We are thrilled to offer the new iPhones to our members today. Coupled with Smart Infinity’s renowned aftersales service and premium perks and privileges, the iPhone experience of our members is elevated to an entirely new level,” added Mr. James Chi, Marketing Manager at Smart Infinity.
