anyone else?

Doesn't happen all the time but I don't recall it happening before (just had the iPhone replaced by Apple a few days ago).

I press the home button and there's a serious delay, at least 2 full seconds. It happens here and there but it's not something I noticed before. This was happening on 9.2 and now 9.2.1.

This happens on my iPhone 6s quite frequently...in fact, it's very annoying. The phone has more memory and a "faster" processor, and it lags and delays when unlocking it. If it were just the status bar not showing up right away, I probably wouldn't mind as much..but it's actually the whole OS that's delayed when unlocking..I have to wait 3 seconds until I can finally press an app icon and begin using the phone.

Now, this is definitely a "first world problem"...is it really that big of a deal in the grand scheme of things? Of course not...given that some people don't even have a hole to crap in

Anyhow...here are my thoughts...

I had to get my iPhone 6s replaced a few times already (for various hardware issues) and 3 of the 4 I've used have had a Samsung A9 chip. One was a TSMC chip.

Now, I will say this, I did notice my phone was much snappier and I rarely experienced this status bar delay on the TSMC A9 iPhone 6s...however, each Samsung chip phone experienced this issue.

I am not imagining this, nor am I trying to bring up chipgate again for no reason..I'm simply going by what I experienced....all the phones were set up as new and configured the same way...and the 1 TSMC iPhone 6s I used was very snappy and responsive.

I did NOT, however, notice any difference with battery life between the two chips. Just the lag/responsiveness.

Just out of curiosity, do you know what kind of A9 chip is in your phone?

Have the same problem, also sometimes the screen is zoomed in like by %10 sometimes and I cant see the status bars.
 
It will go away give some time

Yes. I've noticed this too. Seems to happen for the first few weeks of setting up or restoring a 6S+ and then it just goes away. I've seen this happen on 4 phones now.

Never seen it on a 6S so it must be a Plus thing.
 
seems like i fixed the issue. when i first got the replacement, i restored from iCloud.

i backed up to my mac and did a clean install and restored from the mac. the issue is gone. maybe the iCloud file was corrupt
