A Big Display Is Not Enough; iPhone 6 To Sport Haptic Tech

While everybody is excited about the iPhone 6’s brand new display, reports point out that Apple may have other tricks up its sleeve.

 

Apparently, just a big display will not do for the iPhone 6. The Chinese media is now reporting that the Apple may have a brand new trick up its sleeve in the form of haptic technology for its display. We have been seeing leaked images and even got a demo of the actual 4.7 inch iPhone 6’s front panel being stress tested, but Apple thinks that even all of this is not enough.

We were indeed impressed by the front panel’s stress test and were not hoping for anything more, but Apple according to the Chinese media will bringing in some new haptic technology that delivers minor vibrations depending on where one touches the screen. This would indeed come as good news for developers as the applications for haptics in games will be limitless. Still then, apps will also see a big advantage as most of the iOS apps do take the OS to the limits turning them into works of art.

Sadly, the new haptic tech does come at a price; 2 to 3 times the price of the haptic motor (the one that creates the vibration on your phone) in the iPhone 5s. So there may indeed be a rise in prices. But knowing that Apple will build so many iPhones this year, we think that the price of the haptic motors will drop to a minimum.
