They’ll both run iOS 8, the latest version of Apple’s operating system for iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch which introduces revamped Messages and Photos apps, a new keyboard and iCloud storage.

“iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus are the biggest advancements in iPhone history,” said Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO.

Both models will be available for pre-order from this Friday, September 12th with prices starting at £539 for the iPhone 6 and £619 for the iPhone 6 Plus.
