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 16GB option still exists
Why?

The iPhone 6S is a strong and stylish phone, but Apple continues to neglect some problem points
Compared to iPhone 6, it has improved speed everywhere (new processor, faster wireless, quicker Touch ID sensor); a sturdier body; better front and rear cameras; and a bold new 3D Touch pressure-sensitive display which offers new iOS shortcuts
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
The newest iPhones are top-to-bottom better phones with lots of enhancements; iPhone 6 owners don't need the upgrade, but everyone else should seriously consider it...

If you want or need to buy a new iPhone, buy this iPhone. Everything else aside, the faster guts will make it last longer than any other before it. 3D Touch and Live Photos are equally fantastic. But they're not reasons to upgrade from an older (but perfe...
While both phones bring something unique to the table, we've got to go with the iPhone 6s on this occasion. The premium look and feel of the iPhone is great, and the addition of 3D Touch really does open up a new world of interactions on your mobile. Howe...

Abstract: The Apple iPhone 6s has landed. Just like clockwork, Apple has launched its latest flagship phone, and this year's version looks like a tweaked, souped-up version of last year's model - but there's more than meets the eye. With new features like 3D Touch...

Smaller battery than iPhone 6, Entry-level 16GB model is insufficient
This is a good year to upgrade your iPhone. Apple has retained the winning outward design of the iPhone 6, but packed in a bunch of cool upgrades like 3D Touch, Live Photos, a 12-megapixel camera, a 5-megapixel selfie cam, double the RAM, and a much spe...
