Please explain, 3D Touch is a hardware thing how can jailbreak help with that??

It's not real 3D Touch

(And not as good)

But it sort of works similarly and simulates it as well as software can. Not the same as the 6s though. It's a software tweak to give similar functionality and a neat feature for those who have no interest in getting a 6s to experience a "3D touch-like" feature.

You need to jailbreak your phone though.
 
I went from the 6 to 6s and yes there are improvements but none really "must have" or mind blowing. The biggest is the 2GB of RAM that makes it much smoother no more safari and app refreshes when multitasking. Live photos and 3D touch are nice but im sure most people can get by fine without it. I only upgraded because I'm on T-mobile Jump so it didnt cost me anything and it was the same monthly payments I was paying already so i said why not. If you have to buy full price its not worth it IMO.

This. The ram has made a huge impact for people like me who use safari a lot.

Unless you can afford it, it's not worth a upgrade over the 6. If you have the 6+ which was the worst iPhone I've ever owned (which has been all) then you should get the 6S+

I've seen a few people on here say the 6+ was so bad but everyone I know that has one loves it. I never owned one so i cant speak from experience but I've used them briefly in store and with friends it seemed fine to me. Why does it get such a bad rep?

Because it was extremely ram limited, which resulted in frequent reloading of apps and occasionally crashes. I personally was extremely frustrated with the phone and wished I had stuck with my 5S.

6S Plus is so far the best phone I've used.
