iPhone 6: Yay or Nay?

Getting sick of the same old iPhone features that freeze, or half the time you don't have enough room to even download updates?

Apple recently unveiled the iPhone 6 and the technology world is buzzing with speculation of whether the newest model is a must-have or not.

The new iPhone 6 has a few key features that Apple fans are excited about. 

1. Bigger and Better Screen. Screen size matters to iPhone users. Ever since the development of the original few iPhone models, customers have always requested a larger screen. Apple listened to their customers and took their feedback into consideration when crafting the iPhone 6. The new iPhone features a 4.7 inch screen. The iPhone 6 Plus features a 5.5 inch screen. The screen also has a refreshed Retina display allowing for improved quality. 

2. Improved Look and Feel. The bigger body of the iPhone 6 also has curved glass edges for comfortable holding. The phone, of course, is super slim at 0.27-inch. Color is always an important aspect for the iPhone. We've seen gold, black, white, rose gold, silver, and then of course, the series of colors that were birthed through the iPhone 5c. The iPhone 6 comes in gold, silver, and space gray. The power button has also moved to the right side of the phone, for easier use. 

3. Camera. The new features of the camera help to take even better videos and photographs. Apple says that focus time is down. This means that you can take great quality pictures quicker than ever before. Also, colors are supposed to look more lifelike when flash is engaged on the iPhone 6. The HDR option is now automatically applied for all photos taken on the camera. 

4. Internals. The iPhone 6 has an A8 processor that allows for 50 percent faster graphics and 25 percent faster CPU. These features should make the phone more power efficient. Power efficiency is something important to iPhone users because in the past battery life has tended to be an issue. With support added in the WiFi standard means that the iPhone 6 will have WiFi speeds three times faster than in the iPhone 5S. 

The iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6 Plus will be available in eight countries on September 19. However, pre-orders begin September 12 in the U.S. for those of you dying to get your paws on the bigger and better iPhone 6. The new iPhone starts at $199.

I thought senioritis in high school was rough until I became a college senior about to go into the real world. I'm supposed to have everything figured out, right? I mean I went through four years of tough classes and serious self-searching (and crying). What I found overall was Senioritis sneaking up on me.

College is filled with many things, and we're so often lectured to make the right decisions as we head out on our own into the college life. But sometimes it's necessary to indulge in some guilty pleasures as well as just doing things because you can. And honestly, a lot of the time it's inevitable. College is no piece of cake that's for sure, so it's okay to do some things you deep down know you shouldn't....once in a while anyways.
