3D Touch is a game-changer
Super-fast processor
Good battery
Double the RAM and processing power of its predecessor. A Touch ID that works in milliseconds instead of seconds. Vastly improved cameras and video recording capabilities
Though it lacks the dual lens camera of the iPhone 7. That 3D Touch display is goin

The editors didn't like
Too large for one-handed use
Apple's made the iPhone 6S Plus bigger (slightly) and heavier (considerably)
Meaning it's still a beast to hold and very difficult to use one handed
For those who walk down the street tapping away on their iPhone with one hand and sipping from a frappe
IPhone 6s Plus is too big to exercise with
Both models are expensive
Still hefty
Loves fingerprint smudges.
Too big for some
Expensive
It's really big. It costs more than the smaller iPhone. Other phablet-sized phones offer longer battery life
Cost
It's big and heavy which simply won't be suitable for everyone
Screen resolution behind the flagship curve
No hi-res audio support
One-hand use is tricky
16GB base model just doesn't have enough storage space
Live Photos a bit gimmicky
No progress on the facade to screen ratio
Photo quality not up to the standard of the new leaders in the field
A few practical settings get lost in the iOS labyrinth
No Quick Charging
No wireless charging
Screen resolution could be better
Still expensive
Live Photos
While cool
Probably won't be used much by most people. Only two storage options. Verdict
No question about it
The iPhone 6s Plus is the fastest
Most advanced iPhone ever. If you are thinking of upgrading
Now is the time. Apple might as w
Slightly underwhelming battery life
Live Photos seem likely to fill up storage quickly

Performance, Screen, Fingerprint scanner, 3D Touch
Price, 16GB base storage, No OIS
If you want a phone that's easy to use with one hand and easily fits in your pocket, the iPhone 6s is a good option. It shares most of the same hardware as its bigger brother, but the lack of OIS, a required feature at this price point, holds the camera...
Very good exposure overall, Fast and generally accurate autofocus under all test conditions, Reliable and pleasant white balance under most conditions, Good detail preservation in bright light
Some luminance noise visible, especially in low light, Some color inaccuracies and color shading visible with indoor lighting, Occasional bluesky saturation and other artifacts, With flash, chroma noise and visible reduction of illumination in corners

Like its predecessor the Apple iPhone 6s Plus produces very good exposure and color across all light levels but, especially in bright light, image detail lacks behind the best in class. On the plus side panorama and slow motion video modes are currently t...
3D Touch, New and improved cameras Blazing fast performance
Slippery design still mandates using a case Base model is still 16GB, Very expensive
Apple always prices the iPhone at a premium, and that's ok. Apple loyalists will upgrade to the latest iPhone, irrespective of the price, provided they can afford it of course. For everyone else though, price is a huge factor, and we feel that Apple has b...

Abstract: "The iPhone 6s Plus packs in new and improved snappers. Is it still the best camera phone?" Even though Apple has stoicly refused to indulge in the megapixel count game, the iPhones have widely been regarded as having one of (if not the) best smartphone c...

Abstract: To be perfectly honest, this past year has been remarkably boring in the mobile segment. For whatever reason, phones have either stood still or regressed when it comes to overall quality. There are a few stand-outs that have been worth talking about like...

Abstract: The first is its camera. Simply put, this is the best iPhone camera yet, noticeably better than even the iPhone 6s camera, which shares many (but not all) of its components and is a fine camera itself. The secret sauce is the 6s Plus's exclusive optical i...
