Why the iPhone 6s? Know the features

A few months previously Apple launched the iPhone 6S and if you’re not really aware of the Apple tactic you might be perplexed regarding this updated iPhone as it seems similar to the iPhone 6 but fear not they are not the identical. On the inside at least.

There is far better components, boosted camera, better case, the brand new 3D Touch and (finally) 2GB of RAM. Over the years the ‘S’ typically brought anything brand new to the plate, the iPhone 4S brought in Siri and the iPhone 5S had the Touch ID fingerprint sensor.

The major extra to the iPhone 6s is most definitely the new pressure-sensitive touchscreen technology named the 3D Touch that though at this moment is very incredible and would absolutely transform into more entertaining when more apps are produced for it.

Primarily, what Apple will have to do is to convince individuals that the S variant of iPhone 6 brings in the enhancement, regardless of whether there are a great deal of other smartphones to choose from and regretfully the iPhone 6S doesn’t look like a game changer, it only has some slight improvement that do have a ton of potential with future updates or installments.

Style

At first glimpse, the iPhone 6S looks to be identical to the iPhone 6, it has the very same curved corners and edges, but there are some slight design transformations.

The frontal of the phone is currently more durable, the glass being less likely to snap if the phone is dropped and last but not least, the iPhone 6S is now crafted from the 7000 series aluminum.

As said in the past, these types of improvements are refined and will most likely go unheeded by most. The volume buttons, the silencer switch and the power key are in the exact same place as last year and this isn’t a bad detail because the smartphone is really easy to operate with one hand and the buttons are exactly where they should be.

As a side note, the iPhone 6S is compatible with iPhone 6 cases.

Design

The iPhone 6S appears to have the same display as the iPhone 6, featuring a 4.7-inch LED-backlit IPS LCD display with a resolution of 1334x750p, 16 million colours and a pixel density of 326ppi.

Although there are far less expensive phones that offer 1080p resolution or even 4K display screen( which is a serious overkill!), the iPhone 6S still offers a fantastic screen experience, being crisp and clear, with deep blacks, bright whites and dead-on colours.

While the resolution stays the identical there is one major add-on off the in 2015’s flagship. You are now presented with the 3D Touch which gives a thoroughly new way to engage with the iPhone.

This opens entirely new opportunities. If right now you may merely open pop-up windows, trigger simple actions or expand, preview links and messages and there is a lot that may be done in the future.

Operation

The iPhone 6S includes much better equipment than the iPhone 6, with an Apple A9 Chipset, 1.84 GHz dual-core Typhoon CPU, six-core PowerVR GT7600 GPU, 2GB RAM and, still, no card slot.

This interprets into simpler multitasking, better handling of graphically-demanding activities (like playing games), there was no stuttering, no lost frames and the smartphone never dragged while we used it.

But there are some flaws. Apple decided to keep 16GB as base memory for iPhone 6S and because there isn’t a microSD slot, replenishing those 16GB will happen in no time at all.

Applications

The iOS has constantly been the backbone of the iPhones and the new installation, the iOS 9 offers the same durability and user-friendliness we were adapted to and due to its subtle modify over the years and the new added 3D touch, the iOS 9 is the best iPhone software to this day.

As always, the iOS hurries and reactive, the App Store is still dynamic (and of higher quality than Google Play Store) and the apps have endured some transfigurations and update.

The Apple Maps, now, has transit directions, there is a News app, that is fairly basic, taking topics from different resources in a magazine-style user interface. Notifications are now filtered by time, not by app and with the help of the M9 coprocessor, Siri is always on standby you can now you can wake it by yelling Hey Siri rather than pressing a button. Siri, also, can reply to a lot much more demands.

The 3D Touch is its main feature and even though in its infancy, is executed the most reliable with Apple’s Mail. You can preview messages, archive them or mark them as unread.

Battery Life

The iPhone 6S includes a non-removable 1715 mAh battery. Yes, you heard that right, the battery is in fact much smaller, a decline from the iPhone 6’s 1810mAh.

There have been issues about the battery from the iPhone 6 and yeah, Apple didn’t quite addressed this complication. Nonetheless, the battery life averaged at 15 to 16 hours a day and there are a bunch of customers who need to recharge their iPhone 6S during the mid-afternoon.

It’s not like it isn’t logical, the good reason being actually the execution of 3D Touch. The battery failed to possess more than enough space and they would like to keep the same concept as iPhone 6. Yet, there are tons of smartphones that feature 4000mAh and battery life is usually a choosing factor for purchasers.

Conclusion

Is iPhone 6S a great phone? Yes, it is. It does have its special elements and they ensure a great deal in future upgrade. Is it really worth upgrading over iPhone 5S? The users of iPhone 5S are the main target, the iPhone 6S being leagues ahead from all perspectives (better camera, larger screen, better display, higher performance, a lot more stable).

But can Apple convince iPhone 6 end users to upgrade to 6S? Maybe. At this moment, the iPhone 6S does not give anything forward-looking and it is pretty near to the iPhone 6, but it may be worth getting a taste of these early installments (like 3D Touch) ahead of everyone, before it gets prevalent. And if you would like to shift from Android or Windows or you’re just curious precisely how iOS works, then the iPhone 6S is the most ideal choice.
