What is iPhone 6s?

New aluminum alloy isnt to blame for iPhone 6s weight gain According to Apple, the aluminum in 6s Plus only weighs 2 grams more than the aluminum in its predecessor. The aluminum in 6s weighs a gram less than that in the 6. The new aluminum might keep iPhones from bending in half.

How Apple built 3D Touch Apple has made many things over the years but its process has remained essentially the same: Find something ugly. Make it prettier and easier. John Ive focus is a feature called 3D touch, and it makes using an iPhone even easier. He says This is what galvanizes our efforts right across the company

Most Important Three Minutes of the Apple Keynote Speech

Hands-On With the Updated iPhone 6S and 6S Plus

Apple makes iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus $100 More Expensive

New iPhones Gobble Storage (More Than You Realize The headline features for many with the new iPhones are their upgraded cameras. A jump to 12MP for the rear iSight camera and 5MP for the front facing FaceTime camera. It has the ability to 4K and 1080p video respectively.

Doing the Maths 12MP Live Photos: 8MP iPhone photos are typically about 2.5MB in size so youre looking at about 4.5 5MB for a 12MP image which balloons to 9-10MB with every Live Photo.

4K videos: Every minute of 1080p video is roughly 190MB and this doubles to approximately 380MB for 4K videos.

The End Result Apple has reduced the install size of iOS so a 16GB iPhone now has about 13GB of free space out of the box. 13GB would equate to just 30-35 minutes of 4K video, or with even split- 17 minutes of 4K video and 650 Live Photos.

The Faulty Defence The obvious counterpoint to all this users could reduce video recording to 1080p, photos down to 8MP and switch off Live Photos. Users can upgrade to more iCloud storage to reduce how much content they need to hold on the phone; Or to invest in larger internal or external computer store for regular backups.

Fast Photo Selection With iOS 9 you no longer need to tap individual photos for multiple selections. Just keep your finger on the screen after selecting the first photo and drag it to select as many as you want in a single action.

Fast Photo Scanning Youre likely to build up a substantial photo library over time so once you open a photo in iOS 9 look for the strip of image thumbnails below. Drag this left or right to race through your snaps.

Easy Close Photo Shortcut As iPhones get bigger it isnt so easy to reach the top left Back button, but iOS 9 eases this frustration by allowing you to swipe down on any open photo to return to the Camera Roll.

Battery Secrets

Hidden Battery Widget iOS 9 lets you add a new battery widget to the bottom of the Today view in the Notification Center. Tap edit at the bottom of the Today column to reveal the option to add it. You will notice it also shows a connected Apple Watch.

Detailed Battery Usage Ever wondered which apps are killing your battery? Now you can get a detailed breakdown in iOS 9 by going to Settings > Battery then Battery Usage. These can also be broken down by the time using the Clock button.

Manually Enable Low Power Mode Sometimes you may want to conserve power long before your iPhone or iPad is about to die. Turn the new Low Power Mode on manually by going to Settings > General > Battery > Low Power Mode and toggle it to On.

Messaging Convenience

Quick calls and Messages Open Spotlight (swipe right on your home screen, or swipe down over the home screen icons) and youll find iOS 9 gives you quick access to call or message contacts.

Quick Reply This feature was partially introduced in iOS 8, but now all messaging apps in iOS 9 allow quick replies to be sent by dragging down on a new message notification.

Group Notifications Prefer your notifications grouped by app rather than time? Easy in iOS 9! Settings > Notifications > Group By App and switch the toggle to On.

New Voices iOS 9 has more voice options if you head toSettings > General > Accessibility > Voices.

AdBlock Shortcut In iOS 9 if you long press the refresh icon in Safari it gives you the option to reload the page with ad blocking enabled.

iPhone 6S Vs iPhone 6S Plus: What's The Difference?

Design Familiar But Intelligently Improved

Size and Weight Increases iPhone 6S: 138.3 x 67.1 x 7.1mm (5.44 x 2.64 x 0.28in) and 143g (5.04oz)

iPhone 6S Plus: 158.2 x 77.9 x 7.3mm (6.23 x 3.07 x 0.29in) and 192g (6.77oz)

iPhone 6: 138.1 x 67 x 6.9mm (5.44 x 2.64 x 0.27in) and 129g (4.55oz)

iPhone 6 Plus: 158.1 x 77.8 x 7.1mm (6.22 x 3.06 x 0.28in) and 172g (6.07oz)

Strength Improvements Apple openly mocked the so-called Bend gate scandal last year when the iPhone 6 and, notably, iPhone 6 Plus were found to warp under relatively meager pressures. Consequently the new iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus have switched from Series 6000 to Series 7000 aluminum. Apple has improved the durability of the new iPhones glass displays.

Winner: iPhone 6S It gets less of a weight bump while the iPhone 6S Plus is now a genuinely heavy phone, a problem when both remain so slippery

Displays Ingenious Or Falling Behind? iPhone 6S still has a pixel density similar to a 4K Ultra HD resolution on a 13-inch laptop while the iPhone 6S Plus has a pixel density higher than a 4K display on an 11-inch laptop.

Winner: iPhone 6S Plus It continues to have a noticeably higher pixel density than the smaller iPhone 6S and with most rivals now sporting 2K displays, 6S owners in particular may feel a little shortchanged

3D Touch Initially Interesting, Potentially Amazing iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus now sport a variant of Force Touch called 3D Touch.

This uses the same pressure sensitive panel as these devices to distinguish between different types of touch and gives vibration feedback to the user to confirm when force touches are recognized.

Cameras A New Force To Be Reckoned With iPhone 6S and 6S Plus 12 megapixel sensor, F2.0 lens, Focus Pixels, dual-LED flash 4p video recording. Front: 5 megapixel sensor, F2.0 lens, 1080p video recording

iPhone 6 and 6 Plus 8 megapixel sensor, F2.2 lens, Focus Pixels, dual-LED flash 1080p video recording. Front: 1.2 megapixel sensor, F2.2 lens, 720p video recording

Winner: iPhone 6S Plus The very disappointing absence of Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) from the iPhone 6S makes this an easy win

Performance Big Jump, But Memory The Key A9 chipset will offer 70% greater CPU performance and 90% greater graphics performance compared to the A8 chipset in the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus.

The higher resolution of the iPhone 6 Plus was found to impact its performance compared to the iPhone 6 as it has to drive more pixels for its display.

Both the iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus also received upgraded LTE performance, now supporting speeds up to 300Mbit per second.

Winner: iPhone 6S Though we cant see the iPhone 6S Plus struggling to keep up for quite some time

Touch ID 2.0 Faster And More Secure With Apple Pay slowly gaining mainstream adoption, Apple has chosen an optimal time to bring an upgraded version of Touch ID to the iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus.

Battery Life and Charging Apple boasts that the A9 chipset is more efficient, but sadly it hasnt coupled that new efficiency with the extra win of larger capacity batteries.

Cost No Surprises, Storage A Letdown With the shift to more expensive Series 7000 aluminum (as well as a more premium camera sensor and Touch ID technology) there had been fears iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus prices would increase this year. Identical price points remain:

iPhone 6S: $649 (16GB), $749 (64GB) and $849 (128GB)iPhone 6S Plus: $749 (16GB), $849 (64GB) and $949 (128GB)

Early Verdict Apple Did Enough, Without Amazing Us For an S year, the iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus are fairly predictable: minor external differences belying significant internal change.

Long term 3D Touch is the real news here and it could spell great (or needlessly complex) times ahead for iOS. Meanwhile the additional multitasking capabilities and camera improvements will be deal clinchers for many.
