iPhone 6S

[Ben.Block]

Mine doesn't seem to run very smooth. Seems to be quite laggy opening up apps. Email for example hung for about 4 seconds and transitioning between apps isn't very smooth.

Anybody else experiencing this?

Mine is being delivered tomorrow, expected delivery date was 13th-19th so a nice surprise

Seriously though, try that, then try a hard reset... Then I don't know, as I hate rebooting.

Not sure it's entirely related to 6S my 6 is laggy ever since I upgraded to IOS 9

Tried both, seems to have improved slightly, doing it sporadically now.

Funny thing is I didn't notice any lag on my 6, with iOS 9 or 9.0.1.

The 6s went straight to 9.0.2 so I can't make any comparisons.

 

[Knuckles]

As if 9.0.2 is out already! 9.0.1 was released on release day.

[AdDaMan]

My 6s was also laggy. When opening camera from lock screen sometimes it would pause for 5 seconds.
Back to my 6 now on the latest update and it's fine.

 

[C.J]

This 6S battery is insane. I'm guessing those with the Plus get an extra day?

The only setting I have off, is the background app refresh.

 

[Goodj]

if I put iOS 9 on a 1st gen iPad Mini....will it proceed to immediately s**t itself to pieces?

You mustn't have any friends.

Most likely.

I'm not putting 9.0.1 or .2 onto the 6s for fear of it shitting itself.

 

[C.J]

It's true, although only my Mum uses WhatsApp

Shouldn't do, seems to run ok on my iPad 3, certainly no slower than iOS8 was

Confirmation of good battery life on here and from someone at work with one (I was concerned about smaller battery & 3D touch making the battery life suffer), so buy it now button pressed, just ordered a 6S to replace my 5S :up:

You'll not be disappoint to be fair.

 

[Rich-D]

Nah, good jump for sure, need to get a case now...

 

[C.J]

I made the same move. Give it a couple of charges/run downs and the battery is great.

Apple cases are worth the money.
Also, Zagg Invisiblesheild. It's not as bad as your normal screen protector and saved me a screen many, many times over.

I always go for the official Apple cases now, they fit perfect. I have had two leather ones and wouldn't recommend them as the corners wear really quick and start to look used. I've had a silicone one on since February and it's great. Only just started to show signs of wear and it generally ends up in pockets with keys / money on often.

I bought a silicone red one to go onto my 6s yesterday, I didn't realise there was a difference in thickness to the 6. It's only a small amount but I could notice it with the case fitting.

I had the leather case on my 5 and, yes, after 2 years the corners have started to degrade, but compared to the other offerings from Griffin et al, it's a good sight more long-lasting.

as for "start to look used", if you mean the discolouration, that's the patina you get with using leather. Still looks better (in my opinion) that wrapping it in rubber. my old 5 case has a completely different colour on the outside than it is inside...again, 2 years of daily use.

But, anyway, yes, apple cases only...also, it means you can use the desktop dock, not all the "aftermarket" ones will let that happen.

 

[Rich-D]

I don't particularly like cases that leave exposed areas, such as at the bottom like the Apple ones and I don't use a dock, so I'll probably be getting something else.
Has anyone got one of those tempered glass screen protectors? If so good/bad?

 

[GarethM]

I use bestskinever screen protectors. By far best and long lasting ones I've had. Just waiting for one to be delivered for my 6S.

 

[riz]

Spigen cases are excellent. Check YouTube reviews, I have a Neo Hybrid...

 

[riz]

I'm not sold on 3D Touch yet. Especially for opening quick links....

I had one of my 5s from pretty much day one, and it's still going strong. Two corners are slightly chipped because the female is a long, but, assuming you're not a month, it'll last ages. The phone screen underneath is immaculate.

I've got one waiting to go on my 6s when I get bored of this case I have on.

 

[Rich-D]

Picked it up this afternoon, not played with it yet

 

[botfch]

Well at least my case has arrived.. Cmon Apple/EE pull your finger out.

 

[Lou]

Battery life has been great on my 6s Plus. This still had 17% left when I took the screenshot.

 

[Scott™]

Genuine conundrum... Going to get a 6S plus but do I get Space grey, or white and silver. Always had a Space grey since my IPhone 5 and then 6 and fancy a change but I don't know how keen on the white I really am.

Are you a female? Or inclined to do things Liamm would do?

If so get a white one.

Lol that's that decided then.

 

[botfch]

Finger prints show up less on the white as well but space grey looks nicer.

 

[C.J]

I've always had white since the 4. I'm bent though.

 

[Knuckles]

I've had black 4 then a space grey 5s (because the cow at the shop wouldn't show me a gold one)... So got a gold 6s for a change.

It's a really nice change

 

[CrippsCorner]

I swap each time I get a new iPhone...

4: Black
4S: White
5S: Black
6: White

Shame gold and rose gold both look a bit shite

 

[C.J]

Been using this cheap screen and rear protector on mine and my wife's: http://www.ebay.co.uk/ulk/itm/331643973674

Worth the couple of quid.

I still don't get why people buy a £600 phone and then cover it with £2 of plastic, just why?

I've not got a single scratch on my 6, the glass it ultra resilient, such a shame.

In terms of a case, very simple.

I drop my phone on an almost daily basis. It's not got a cracked screen, or any damage for that matter.
Almost everyone I know who rolls bare, has smashed their screen.

No matter how careful I am, the rear of my iPhone's always scratch.

No matter how careful I am, the rear of my iPhone's always scratch.

Why not just protect the rear then?
The screen is the most important thing, I want to be touching that glass!
