Iphone 6, still usable in 2018? 4 years later, Revisited

                           Iphone 6 was released in 2014 and marked the new era for apple. It was one of the most sold out phones of apple. Apple followed the similar design for four years even up to the Iphone 8 and 8 plus which looks similar to the Iphone 6. But how does it hold up in 2018?            Apple launched Iphone 6 with a bigger 4.7-inch LED-backlit IPS LCD capacitive touchscreen (16M colors) display (~65.8% screen-to-body ratio) and with a resolution of 750 x 1334 pixels, 16:9 ratio (~326 ppi density). It came with apple’s then latest apple A8 chipset and a Dual-core 1.4 GHz Typhoon (ARM v8-based) processor along with Power VR GX6450 (quad-core graphics) and was powered by 1Gb of DDR3 RAM.   The phone came with iOS 8 preinstalled and is upgradable to the latest iOS 11. The phone had a Non-removable Li-Po 1810 mAh battery (6.9 Wh). The phone had an aluminum unibody design with dimensions 138.1 x 67 x 6.9 mm (5.44 x 2.64 x 0.27 in) and weighed 129 g (4.55 Oz)
