With excellent features across the board with no deal-breaking flaws and Apple's well-stocked App Store
The
Tim Cook called the iPhone 6S' 3D Touch a game-changer
And I'm inclined to agree. It became second nature to use it after only a couple of weeks' use
The native apps are already using the system well
And it's quickly becoming a fun game to work out whe

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

Camera performance in low light isn't the best

Disappointing battery life
No 32GB option
Screen could be higher res
Display could be better
Battery life slightly disappointing

A technically impressive, solid smartphone with a healthy helping of touchscreen innovation, ultimately let down by poor battery life. iPhone 6 users may want to wait for next year's model, but the 6s is a good upgrade choice if you're still using an iPho...

Very good exposure overall, Fast and generally accurate autofocus in all test conditions, Reliable and pleasant white balance in most conditions, Good detail preservation in bright light.
Some luminance noise visible, especially in low light, Some color shading visible in indoor conditions, Slightly yellow cast visible in outdoor conditions, Occasional ghosting and other artifacts
Abstract: A question that I'm asked quite often is, which handset is best for network, especially for people who live in areas with spotty coverage (at best). For several years, this has been relatively easy to answer as Samsung's flagships usually had better cover...
Abstract: The iPhone 6s is the latest iPhone to come from Cupertino. While the "s" updates don't usually bring huge changes, Apple seems to make a big deal about this one. With 3D Touch, Touch ID 2.0, a new camera, and a much more powerful CPU, the new iPhone 6s is...

3D Touch, Still a great design, Great performance, Good camera performance, Stable OS
No microSD card slot, Low battery life, No optical image stabilization, Price is quite high
Is iPhone 6S a great phone? Yes, it is. It does have its unique features and they promise a great deal in future updates. Is it worth upgrading over iPhone 5S? The users of iPhone 5S are the main target, the iPhone 6S being leagues ahead from all points o...
Abstract: If you can't beat them, join them, right? That, at least, is what we felt like Samsung is going for when it made the Galaxy S6 official back in the beginning of the year. Untrue to itself, instead of garnering the existing feature set of its flagship Gal...
Abstract: The iPhone 6s is already out and it is a worthy successor to the iPhone 6. Although it is nearly identical on the outside, it represents what's possibly the biggest S-cycle upgrade in the device's history – the iPhone 6s is a major refinement with stando...
A blazing-fast smartphone, Low-light photography and the option to shoot in 4K, A smaller iOS device, Pressure sensitivity, Great selfies for days
Bigger screens, Optical image stabilization on photos and video, A longer battery, Huge cameras or physical keyboards, Wireless charging, Budget phones
This generation of iPhone models is, quite rightfully, Apple's best yet. They've come farther in speed, photography, build quality, and smarts than ever before. The iPhone 6s stands apart from the 6s Plus with its smaller 4.7-inch stature and lack of opti...
