I bought a £12.50 cex voucher today for £9 so ordered a black leather Apple case and my Spigen ex metal has arrived just hope the band doesn't mess with the signal
 
Down to 17% after this much up time, low power mode been on since hitting 20%. 6S, Not bad?

Congratulations :D, what did you go for in the end? :)

I went for 16GB. Itll do me for the year as I don't have a huge number of apps but the extra storage over my 8GB 5c will let me take more pics and have some music playlists!

Just unboxed it, is it heavier than the 6? Feels a bit more weighty. More balance too which is good. Could just be me imagining it though I haven't held a 6 for ages!

ah fair enough, the 6s is heavier, I think it's supposed to be about 20g more then the 6

Ah that makes sense then! The added weight is extremely welcome!

I need a case now. I like the black Apple Leather Case. Tempted by that. Think itll look great with the black front.

How do you find out which apps use location services and manually turn them on and off?

You turn them on or off in settings.

Settings -> Privacy -> Location Services

Scroll down and every app that wants to use location settings is listed. I leave many as "while using" but the apps wanting "always" get turned off unless I know I need it on.
 
How much battery life you getting on your 6S?

Mine isn't great...scared I have a faulty handset
Should I return it

Oh dear! I've read a few other users are having the same problems, don't think the cause has been established yet... Have you been in touch with Apple over this issue yet?

Just a shot in the dark. Did you set your phone up from a backup when you got it or did you set up as new.
I set mine up as new and have not had this problem. I am also on 9.0.2. Might be worth a try.

Set up as new

Very strange. Maybe reset and backup is my best option. It's the only downside from a great phone

Luckily it has never switched off at night only during the day
 
My lock screen is taking up 20% of my battery...is that normal ?
over what period of time? you mean overnight?

I was getting 8% over night which I thought was way too high but yesterday it dropped about 5% which i thought was acceptable.
