iPhone 6s Plus Opens Apps Slightly Faster Than iPhone 6 Plus

law of diminishing return...
what's 70% faster on 0.2s to open something..
the test should be done on some apps that takes maybe 10 seconds to open.

depends entirely on your location.
Plus UPS/FEDEX are insanely busy today.
Also, "end of business day" means 8PM for UPS
Right because one video from one person determines it. I guess everyone who doesn't have their phone yet should cancel their order now.
Mods/Editors: Can someone please edit the title of the article?
EDIT: And Just as I posted this, voila!

Totally confusing, usually MR writes:
It is not clear......
On a side note, what if, (just what if) the guys right hand finger is slightly longer, i.e. it gets to tap
a split millisecond sooner.
7 1/2 minute to demonstrate 6/10 of second speed improvement.
Next test will be how fast he can pick up the 6s vs. the 6 from the desk.

It just demonstrates that the speed improvement is something people will generally not notice all that much. It only really matters when loading heavy apps.
Probably a combination of things - Networking/WiFi would be faster if you have an AC router- that guy has very slow WiFi - technically this phone is faster (2500/4340 (Geekbench) - in reality most people will not see a difference.
To me all of this speed test crap its irrelevant
if you are on 4/4s/5/5s - you are probably on a regular 2 contract - for you, this would be an enormous upgrade
If you are 6/6 plus - you are probably on an installment plan - this would be a no brainer - it will cost you nothing (at most taxes) to upgrade
Why do people keep comparing the 6 and 6s when upgrades are most likely coming from a 5/5S/5C? Dumb dumb dumb.
Most likely not true.
I disagree; Apple boasted 70% faster CPU performance and up to 90% faster graphics compared to the previous iPhone. This article and embedded video are evidence that theses spec. differences don't equate to a very significant increase in speed when opening apps.
Why go to all the trouble of showing the backs of the phones, and the settings screens to prove that the left phone is a 6+ and the right phone is a 6s+..
And then have a really dodgy cross fade to another video with two phones in ( roughly ) the same places.
I'm not saying that I believe the video is a fake, just that if I'm gonna trust he hasn't swapped one of the phones in the 2nd part of the video, then I'm just as likely to trust him from the beginning and he could just skip the entire first part.

How did he lie, he said it was fast. Thats not a lie, it is fast. Maybe not a ton faster then the 6, but he never compares its speed to the 6.
Loading stock apps and clearing them out of the app switcher is probably the worst way to show off the speed difference. He should've loaded a game with 3D graphics or several Safari tabs or several apps simultaneously.
Processor-intensive apps, app switching, and multiple webpages will show off the 6s Plus, not loading Weather with nothing else running!
Anyone know if 2GB RAM will allow me to keep tabs opening Safari without the need to constantly auto-reload data? One of my frustrations with existing mobile Safari.
Ha. Both have the same specs, do they not (425 HP)? That's a terrible example.
Yes, that is what additional RAM does.
News Flash:
Next iPhone will be faster than 6s and 6s Plus.
