If I purchase a new iPhone 6s

You can't tell prior to purchase, nor should you care.

 

No way to know until AFTER you purchase it.

It matters so little.

 

You just have to install a free system app that can detect what type it is. I use the "Status" App and it tells me what type it is.

 

Don't worry about it. Just enjoy your new phone!

 

What, by 20 minutes? Lol

 

Yeah new updated tests indicate that the difference between the two processors is negligible; here's the story incase you missed it.

22% is different than 11%. Let's say for the sake or argument that you have a 6 hour battery a 10% difference could be 36minutes...if you can run your phone all day, turn it on, turn it off, music, video, random data downloading, brightness differences...if you can can set both phones up side by side and run the exact test over and over again then you have too much times on your hands. In ever day use I bet you can't tell the difference, which is why I used the word "Negligible".

If you need one that bad maybe you can find a used one?

 

Buy a 128GB model. Better chance of getting TSMC I believe.

 

You don't want Sammy inside you?

 

What is the 6 to 11% figure based on? Do you have an actual site/report that proves that?

You can try looking in the logs -- see my signature -- but a new phone likely hasn't run the battery down to a warning, yet.

 

My phone is perfect and I don't care wither way, but I'm curious. Which "status" app do you speak of? I don't see any free apps in the app store called "Status". I do see one that's called "System Status" and it costs $2.99.

 

I have a 128 and its TSMC

 

Same with both of my 128's.

 

I believe there is a free version of it.

 

I have a 64gb Silver S+ and its a TSMC

 

Here if you really must know. Lirum lite is back after the stunt the dev app pulled.

No, it doesn't. BTW, watch your aluminum foil hat as you walk in, too; it may hit the doorframe.

This has nothing to do with you or I or how we will ever use our phones.

 

System Status with the orange and blue/gray? (checkered) app Icon, there is a lite version. I suppose the lite version doesn't tell you much. I've paid for mine like long time ago.

 

I have a 128 and it's Samsung. And proud!
