Pretty neat and well deserved! Anandtech has awarded Apple's new iPhone 6s and 6s Plus the site's "Editors' Choice Gold" ranking, the first iPhone to ever rank that highly and only the second phones to receive it since the site began in 1997.
Read the site, and seems OK by me. Must be the individual reader. People are different and that is why I take with a grain of salt many posts on this forum
BGR is pretty much a pure clickbait site, reposting news from other sources, sloppily rewritten.
Yep, and I assume their staffers astroturf on reddit, as seemingly all of /r/technology's top posts link to bgr. Of course, I never click and just downvote 'em all.
God, I remember going back and forth with those guys and they kept saying '1gb is enough' Sheesh, where are those people now? lolThere's no question this is the biggest bump in power and usability. Aside from CPU and GPU power, going to 2GB RAM means it's the biggest RAM jump in iPhones history. Previously it was only a 512MB jump from 512MB to 1024MB. Going from 1024MB to 2048MB has been exceptionally meaningful (and should have happened last year, of course - but then the 6s would have looked less impressive).
It makes me laugh when I think about those who said the Safari tab reload issue was nothing to do with RAM and just needing an update etc. WHAT SAY YOU NOW?
Those folks
Same place the ones that thought we didn't need MMS, or Copy and Paste, or a Notification Center are...
It WAS enough at one point, but arguably not as long as Apple stuck with it. I'm happy I've got 2 GB on both the units I use on a regular basis, no doubt.
It was enough for the iPhone 5 but with the switch to a 64Bit processor the following year Apple really should have upped the RAM. They absolutely should have done for the iPhone 6 and 6+.
Agreed. At least regarding the 6 and 6 Plus. Never really felt my 5S struggle. Sure, it was a bit annoying having to reload tabs ever so often, but other than that, nah.
Sure with the 5S it was debatable whether it needed more RAM, but with the 6 and 6+ it was a necessity. What bugged me about the 5S was that it effectively had less RAM than the preceding i5, thanks to the 64Bit processor using more RAM. So if you were a multitasker and had got used to the way that the iPhone 5 held apps & browser tabs in memory, coming to the 5S felt like a backwards step. I actually went to the 6+ from the iPhone 5 and it was a massive backwards step when it came to multitasking. I felt like I'd gone from a phone with 2GB of RAM to one with 512Mb.

I carry a salt lick with me for this forum.
