2GB of RAM is essential for jailbreakers, i know i know your 1GB iPhone 6/6+ works fine and you couldn't be happier, but after a 2GB iPhone i won't care if the next iPhone boosts 4 or 6GB of RAM, i won't feel left out or need to get the next iPhone, 2GB should be more than enough to enjoy animated widgets and tweaks or a lag-less safari experience without apps reloading on launch.
2GB ram doesn't keep safari from crashing or reloading pages on my iPad. It's a software issue.
Our family will be getting two iPhone 6S units, one from a 4S and one from a Samsung 4 whatever.
We are slow or late adopters, but this welcome change might tip quite a few folks off the indecision stump.
My main goal is to find a carrier far less expensive than Verizon with reasonable coverage in the places I actually go.

I can't be the only one that thinks "Force Touch" is a creepy name and should be rebranded...
As for "DSLR quality camera" that everyone is bugging out about. That's an incredibly vague statement. It doesn't say DSLR quality photos. What part of the camera is going to be DSLR quality? It could just be the glass or interior framing taking their queue from the quality of a DSLR. The statement really doesn't mean anything at all without being qualified...

I have a hard time believing all your problems, and if you do why don't you return the phone or get it fix. I doubt if most iPhone 6 have that much problem as your claim, people would put up with it. We have 4 iPhone 6 in the family and don't have ANY problem with ours.
Contrary to what what many current iPhone owners may think, more RAM is always welcome!
To those who are getting their undies tied into a knot over the dual-camera/DSLR claim, the reference is likely to the amount of bokeh that can be added to and adjusted in photos and videos taken by the new iPhone, similar to the HTC One M8.

"DSLR quality" is a term used in this rumor article. It's not a marketing term used by Apple.
That and by the time the 6S is released, plenty of apps will support the bigger screen.
& for me, Apple Pay will have (hopefully) launched in the UK
The S model camera upgrades have always been marginal at best, but they have to build hype every year so they will say what they can to reel people in

But think how much better an iPhone 6S Plus will be coming from a 5C
5C to 6 Plus is already 2.5x faster CPU, 3x faster GPU and the 6S is only going to be faster.
It is laughable, as are comments from people about lack of ram who backup those comments with benchmark scores. Lack of ram certainly has issues that make the experience less enjoyable, those experiences have been documented many, many times here and other forums and the negative effects of lack of ram do not show up in benchmark scores.
I was thinking the same thing! Kinda ironic when the iPhone 4 non s and twice as much ram as the 3Gs and the iPhone 5 had twice as much Ram as the iPhone 4s. I really don't understand this "I only buy the S model" logic.
Funny my phone has none of this problem even with 1GB RAM. Oh right Android phones have 2GB so it must be better.
Everyone is scoffing at the "DSLR - like" camera, but keep the big picture in mind: it may not be true DSLR quality, but to the average consumer there won't be much of an appreciable difference and the choosier consumer will still end up with a better camera. I'm an opportunistic photographer; i rarely take pictures and when i do they aren't planned. I will likely never own a respectable camera in many peoples' eyes, but i do appreciate a quality camera in my phone for those moment when I want to record something.
