Design and Display
Apple iPhone 6S looks a lot like its predecessor from last year (2014). Its construction features what its maker calls ‘7000 Series aluminium’ – the same top-grade alloy that is used in the aerospace industry.
The smartphone now comes with a rose gold finish in addition to existing gold, silver and space gray offerings.
iPhone 6S sports the same 4.7-inch Retina HD display seen on the iPhone 6. The touchscreen is protected by a glass which is described by Apple as the ‘strongest’ and ‘most durable’ to be used on any phone.
3D Touch
The iPhone 6S brings along new-generation multi-touch technology called 3D Touch.
This pressure-sensitive system is able to detect how hard you press the screen to enable you do a variety of tasks, including viewing a photo, web page or other content, taking a selfie or accessing your favourite apps, quicker and easier.
Apple has worked on the camera on the latest edition. The company provides a 12-megapixel camera on the iPhone 6S – a break from the 8-megapixel sensor that was used on earlier-generation iPhones.
The shooter can record stunning 4K videos. Users also get a 5-megapixel Facetime HD camera with Retina Flash for superb selfies.
There is a new Live Photos feature which enable you capture moments in motion by taking snapshots of moments immediately before and after a captured image.
Performance and Other Features
The iPhone 6S is configured to deliver more robust performance with a custom-designed A9 chip that is said to provide up to 70 percent faster processing speeds.
It runs on the iOS 9 operating system which brings along a number of enhancements, including an upgraded Siri and longer battery life with a new Low Power Mode.
The phone features an improved Touch ID fingerprint scanner that delivers faster response.
It comes with LTE Advanced support for twice as fast data speeds. Apple iPhone 6S also boasts faster Wi-Fi capability.
