If the IPhones are supposed to take HDR photos, how come they don't look any different than the same photos taken with the HDR turned off? I shoot a lot of HDR with a DSLR and they can be anywhere from three to 8 different exposures combined. how does the iPhone handle the HDR files, it only seems to take one photo.

Also, im just now hearing the 6 does NOT have the sapphire display... im mad because that was one of the main reasons I bought the phone! I have a watch with a sapphire crystal and it still looks like its brand new while the case and band are all beat up. Apple let us down with this phone.
