In the both versions of iPhone 6 you will find that Apple has gone for the iPad-mini like style with curved edges. The design has evolved, but it is using the same quality material on the device. The device has gone thinner too with iPhone 6 at 6.8 mm thick and iPhone 6 plus at 7.1mm thick. It is made of aluminum with tiny flashes of plastic on the back side of the phone. Both iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 plus has the fingerprint recognition technology. The power button and the volume button are same as before.
