Siri doesn't do the double vibrate when activated on my 6s. Anyone else with a 6s confirm if this is the case or have any ideas to get the vibrations back.

Yes, I can confirm as well. Siri doesn't vibrate on the S but does on my old 6.
 
I'm guessing that with the iPhone 6s and 6s plus the vibration isn't needed anymore. It alerted you when Siri was ready to listen, but if you notice, she's ready all the time.

Also, with 9.1, Hey Siri can be used when not plugged in. I wonder if older devices feel the vibration again if Hey Siri is turned off.
 
Siri doesn't vibrate when activated on my 6s Plus either. Is this a bug? I find it very strange not to have any indication of when Siri is ready to listen.

I find it weird too. I thought it was a bug, but maybe that is the way it is intended now. I still use my 4S as a secondary phone and it often takes several seconds before Siri is ready to listen. If that is not the case anymore, then maybe it makes sense for there to be no alert tone or vibration.
