Using the Videos app, you can watch downloaded movies or TV shows, as well as media that you’ve synced from iCloud or your Mac or PC.

In addition, iPhone 6 sports both a front and rear video camera that you can use to capture your own videos, and by downloading the iMovie app for iPhone (a more limited version of the longtime mainstay on Mac computers), you add the capability to edit those videos. The 4.7" Retina HD display on iPhone 6 and the 5.5" Retina HD display on iPhone 6 Plus offer even more pixels for better resolution than ever. An 8MP iSight camera can record high-definition video. These two phones are, quite simply, two of the best phones ever for viewing and capturing images, both still and moving.
