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
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

IPhone 6s 16GB model is a poor investment

High price for a low-res screen

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

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...
Improved construction, 3D Touch will reap genuine benefits, Faster processor and double the RAM, 12MP rear and 5MP front camera, TouchID is among the best finger scanners
Cameras lack OIS and could be higher in resolution, Battery life still lesser than rivals
Force Touch is a quantum leap, Live Photos are beautiful and unique, Plenty of processing power, good battery life
Force Touch app support is limited (for now), Live Photos can't be exported, Expensive

Abstract: When I picked up an iPhone 6S today, my first thought was: “what's the fuss. It looks much the same as last year's model.” But then Apple's new marketing slogan rang in my ear: “The only things that's changed is everything.”I'm not partial to marketing sl...

camera performance impresses with bold colours, a wide dynamic range and a knack for detail. Photos are laden with a picturesque finish and image noise is kept to a minimum, unless photos are blown right up to their native 12-megapixel resolution. The la...

Abstract: The Galaxy S and the iPhone release schedules are out of lockstep, so each gets a shot at sticking around at the top level for at least half of the year. This season, the new Samsung Galaxy S7 lands right in the fast lane with the iPhone 6s already at cru...
