With excellent features across the board with no deal-breaking flaws and Apple's well-stocked App Store

Tim Cook called the iPhone 6S' 3D Touch a game-changer

Battery life
IPhone SE only has a 1.2Mp FaceTime Camera
IPhone SE is limited to 64GB storage
IPhone 6s isn't suitable for all hand sizes
At the moment
3D Touch feels like a work in progress. With the exception of the already excellent ‘peek' previews
It feels like untapped potential. It will take more app makers getting fully on board to make it more than just a glorified right-click. I
The battery life of the iPhone 6S leaves a lot to be desired – and while I'm a big fan of 3D Touch
I'm not sure that I'm happy with the fact I have to accept lower battery longevity to have the privilege

IPhone 6s 16GB model is a poor investment
IPhone 5s lacks newer features such as 3D Touch
IPhone 6s Plus is too big to exercise with
Both models are expensive
Price
Gimmicky Live photos
3D Touch
Battery life is medicore
Live Photos are gimmicky
High price for a low-res screen
Same display resolution as the iPhone 6
No fast charging
No wireless charging
Camera performance in low light isn't the best
Battery life isn't as good as the iPhone 6
16GB doesn't provide nearly enough storage
Subpar battery life
Disappointing screen
It has the same battery life as the iPhone 6. You'll need to buy a larger iPhone 6S Plus or upgrade to an iPhone 7 for better battery life
Plus optical image stabilization for photos and video
Disappointing battery life
No 32GB option
Screen could be higher res
Display could be better
Battery life slightly disappointing
Screen resolution behind some rivals
Not compatible with high-res audio
Screen resolution still behind the flagship curve
Still an expensive purchase
Quick Actions via 3D Touch take some getting used to and only a fraction of apps support them for now. Live Photos
If you didn't mind the smaller screen, then the original iPhone SE was arguably better than both the iPhone 6 and 6s, so it's no surprise at all that its new incarnation is a superior device in all departments. The powerful A13 Bionic processor puts it on...
Back in 2015 when the iPhone 8s launched it was a significant update, despite the fact that critics usually look upon s-updates as minor updates. The update bought some significant changes though, including 3D Touch, a much better camera, Live Photos, mor...
Abstract: Apple's iPhone 6 range caused quite a few upsets for longstanding iPhone users. For the first time in the iPhone's history, you couldn't get an iPhone with a 4in display. People weren't happy. This is why we got the iPhone SE; it was an apology from Appl...

I've been pretty positive in my last few iPhone reviews, largely because Apple has got very little wrong. Year after year, it has churned out new models with great success, alternatively boosting power and camera resolution, then refining the design to th...

We're really impressed by the offerings of the iPhone 6s, especially the 3D Touch technology. If it catches on, 3D Touch will completely change how people interact with their iPhones, both in terms of browsing the web and social media as well as when gami...
It's not quite as new and shiny as it once was, but the iPhone 6s still has a lot to offer for budget-conscious users. Performance is still up there with some of the best Android devices on the market, and the design hasn't aged all that much. If you c...

Apple's idea that ‘The only thing that's changed is everything' seems instantly to be a bit of misnomer. Yes, on paper you can point to a lot of things: improved structure, new interface method, Live Photos, a sharper camera, a more powerful engine, but i...
You have to look at a smartphone as an overall package, with it being the sum of its parts. Taken like this, the iPhone 6S is a great smartphone: it's staggeringly quick, it's camera is very good, 3D Touch is a real improvement and iOS 9 and iOS 10 are br...

Quick Actions via 3D Touch take some getting used to and only a fraction of apps support them for now. Live Photos, while cool, probably won't be used much by most people
The iPhone 6s, as expected, doesn't look like much from the outside. It is exactly the same as the iPhone 6, save for the slight difference in weight, and Apple has largely left the aesthetics alone, meaning if you weren't a fan of the plastic strip and n...
