Apple iPhone 6s

Our Apple iPhone 6s Review

What are the main features?

The iPhone 6s allows you to carry out all the functions of the previous model, with improved speed, capability and design. 

As ever, users will be able to utilise Apple-exclusive functions via the iPhone 6S. This includes iMessage, Apple’s own brand communication software that’s compatible with iPad and Mac as well as the iPhone. Users will also be able to conduct Facetime video calls between these systems using the improved 5-megapixel front facing camera. You can even share information and files between your Apple devices via the iCloud, which has been enhanced with better security and more memory. 

Virtual assistant Siri has also been improved with the iPhone 6S, allowing you to perform more functions without even having to touch your phone. Using Siri, you’ll be able to make calls and send texts hands-free, with improved voice recognition helping you along. Ask Siri anything and it should be able to find the answer, with an improved database of information to help you through your day. This includes weather data, news, local traffic, maps and more. 

The iPhone 6S also retains the acclaimed design of the standard version, whilst making it even better. The new model is much stronger and sturdier than its predecessor, meaning the device is far less likely to bend or break in your pocket, despite its slender build.  

What’s new with this upgrade?

The new version of the iPhone 6 adds an impressive number of new features that dramatically improved the functionality of the device.

This includes ‘3D Touch’, which allows you to interact with your apps like never before. Hold down texts or pictures to get a simple preview rather than opening the whole thing or swipe app icons to access their features from your home screen. 

Improved camera functionality has also been added to the 6S. Users will now have 12 megapixels to play with compared to the standard 8 of the 6. This means you can take photos in even better definition, as well as improved selfies and video calls with the 5 megapixel front-facing camera. 

What’s the battery life like?

Due to the increased power of the iPhone 6S, the battery life has improved compared to the previous model. On standby, users will be able to get a huge 10 days of battery, meaning that your phone will never die overnight if low on charge. Using a Wi-Fi connection, you’ll also be able to get 11 hours solid of of internet browsing and HD video playback, meaning you’ll very rarely be out of juice when you need it the most. 

Who would like this phone?

Fans of the iPhone 6 might not think that the 6S has enough changes to upgrade, but this is incorrect. If you love the standard model, the 6S has a massive amount of new features that make the upgrade well worth it. From the new 3D Touch to a better build overall, the iPhone 6S is the best upgrade Apple has managed across all its smartphones.

The 6S is also ideal if you’re looking to get the most cutting-edge smartphone available. As the most recent version of the iPhone Apple has produced, this is a smartphone without compromise, allowing you to enjoy all the best features in the fastest and smoothest phone available.

What do we think?

The iPhone 6S is the best version of Apple’s legendary smartphone series to date. With the fastest ever processor found in an iPhone combined with an improved design overall, this device is perfect for anyone looking for a premium smartphone experience.
