What type of SIM does the new iPhone devices use?
The iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus require an LTE nano SIM.

Will I be able to enjoy LTE services on the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus?
You bet! The iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus are both LTE-capable. But to be able to use this feature, remember that you'll need an LTE SIM and be in an LTE-covered area.

What is the operating system of the new iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus?
Both iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus run in iOS8.

Another new feature of iPhone 6 is the simultaneous voice and LTE data where you can keep browsing while you're talking. Can I already do this here in the country (Philippines)?
Yes, but at a lower data speed. To fully enjoy this capability, it will require VoLTE to keep the connection in 4G/LTE Network.

I see. How about the iPhone 6 feature of allowing users to experience up to 3x faster Wi-Fi, does it work here in the country (Philippines)?
iPhone 6 has adapted the new Wi-Fi technology called 802.11ac (vs the standard 802.11n) with a maximum speed of 1.3Gbps and is proven 3x faster than its predecessor.
ISP has deployed 802.11ac in select locations, e.g. commercial area of BGC - High Boni Street, so that with the iPhone 6, customers can be assured of faster browsing experience. Note however, that speed is still subject to underlying factors such as number of simultaneous users being served by the cellsite, Wi-Fi AP* to internet and the content provider.
*AP-access point

I heard that iPhone 6 claims to have more LTE bands (up to 20 bands) than any other smartphone. What does this mean and how does this benefit me as a subscriber here in the country (Philippines)?
Not all telecommunication operators worldwide use the same band or frequency as this is subject to local policies and regulations of a governing body. In the Philippines, with the approval of NTC, Globe operates on assigned frequencies that are also supported by iPhone 6.
Compared to other smartphones, iPhone 6's compatibility with many frequencies simply allows it to work not just here, but also with other countries, when you roam abroad.
