The iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus come with larger displays than the iPhone 5c and iPhone 5s. iPhone 5s has a screen size of 4 inches diagonally; the iPhone 6 has a screen size of 4.7 inches and the iPhone 6 Plus has a screen size of 5.5 inches. Both of these phones will go on pre-order starting Friday, September 12th, and will be available to the public starting next Friday, September 19th.
The resolution of the new iPhone 6 Plus is much more dense and allow for a much fuller display experience with applications; both native and third-party. With that, you may be wondering if that means a horrible transition experience for App Store applications on the new displays.
According to Apple, no matter what size the screen is, all of the App Store's applications should run just fine on the new display. Granted, they may be a little pixelated due to the new resolution, the applications to automatically adjust to fit the new display and function as expected.
Native applications, on the other hand, have been carefully tailored to already be able to take full advantage of the new high-resolution displays, so there will be no auto-adjusting necessary.
Developers will still have to update their applications for the aesthetics to look good, though. These are updates that will likely come along with support for Apple's new iOS 8 operating system, which will be released to the public next Wednesday, September 17th.
