UK iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus Thread

GrumpyTrucker said:
tbh I hadn't noticed it until that post. But a few videos that have side by side comparisons of the 6S Plus and 6Plus (for speed etc) do show a warmer hue to the S version. Probably Apple have been tweaking again. If anyone read that as twerking you need help ;)

Hahaha and yes! Same. Now I'm starting to get paranoid about a yellow screen when it's probably fine!

Yes, that. It refuses to backup! The backup wheel spins but it never starts. The little blue indicator line has never moved either! I've tried doing a quick reset and nope.... Nothing.

Download the google drive ap on the phone and laptop.

Save the photos on the phone to google drive and they'll sync to a folder on your laptop.

Not idea but better than losing all your photos.

D'OH I'm so anti Google (in so much as I don't use their apps much) I didn't even think of Drive. I just suggested essentially the same thing using iCloud Photo Library. I'm a muppet.

I knew it would be a bit less than actual 128GB but was surprised at the the actual drop to 113. But as it is the norm I am fine with it. Was that moment of panic when you think something's wrong.

At moment my only issue is battery which is draining a bit quick for my liking6% in 20 mins. Hopefully a few cycles will see it right though.

How much have you been playing with it? I unplugged mine this morning at 08:00 and I've used it off and on through the day, messing with 3D Touch etc, iMessages, a couple of calls, Airplay streaming, browsing and it's on 84% as of now, almost 11 hours later.
 
Now I feel like a noob using an iPhone, But at the same time I am thinking how did I manage to survive 2 years with Android?
 
Hows the battery life holding out for the people who have bought a 6s?? Maybe a bit early to pass judgement after only a days usuage? you won't have put them down yet so battery usage will likely be increased more than normal! LOL

It's actually quite good, I'm at 70% since this morning with moderate use today.

Just got an email from John Lewis about the service guarantee for my new iPhone. First year is with Apple as expected and the second year is with JL, covering the breakdown of any functioning part of the 6s.
 
After 24 hours with my 6S Plus, and starting at 100%, I'm now down to 7%. Rather disapppointing as I haven't used it much today, no more than I usually did with my 6, hopefully things will improve after a couple of cycles.

Not happy with my screen (6S Plus on the left)

Been trying to live with it but can't help but notice it.

Called them today but everyone seems to want me to return and order from scratch and wait 4 weeks. Applecare wanted me to go to the Genius bar, which i despise with passion...especially the London based stores.

Can't be asked really, not in the mood to try and play a lottery. Think i'll just skip this generation and stick with my trusty 6 Plus. Unfortunately means more outlay for iPhone 7 but so be it.

I've seen a few tweets about a yellow tint to their 6+ screen.
 
This is how my current 6 is holding out since the last full charge. Be interesting to see how the 6s performs!

Bit of browsing and some Siri messing about. Nothing special. I think it is just a cycle thing at this point.

I will see properly tomorrow how the battery is after a good charge.

Is anyone else experiencing lag and dropped frames when scrolling quickly in the multitasking view?

No ...it's buttery smooth here, even with live wallpapers active. Did you restore from an older backup, i.e.: pre iOS 9.0.1, or did you update before restoring from back up?
 
I've noticed a massive different in battery life going from a 6 to a 6s Plus. I've hammered my phone today, I've been out most of the day, taking photo's, a couple of video's I streamed the F1 qualifying. 47% at 19:25. Unplugged at 7am. No way the 6 could have handled that much usage.
