The 6 Plus was the most underpowered phone out of the box that Apple has ever released. I've had them all since the iPhone 3G (except the 3GS and 5C), and this was the only one that struggled with performance even on the iOS version that it originally shipped with. It became highly frustrating to be switching apps and have all of them refreshing constantly. Unable to hold anything in memory. It locked up, stuttered, and/or froze more than any other iPhone as well. I've never had to reboot an iPhone so many times before.
For instance one day I was at the store using the Mixology app to find some drink mixes and switching to Safari to find out where to buy the ingredients, each time I went back into Mixology the entire app reloaded and I would have to find the drink again, then in Safari the page would reload as well. Google Maps reloading on road trips and therefore erasing my route. Just ridiculous.
The 6S Plus on the other hand, is a performance beast and flies like no other. The poor performance (by iPhone standards) of the 6 Plus has made me appreciate the performance of this upgrade moreso than any other feature. Sometimes I even find myself waiting a few seconds when reopening apps or webpages anticipating a reload, but I have to readjust to the fact that this phone can actually hold everything in memory like it's supposed to.
