Too many jealous samsung chip owners on this thread!

Probably an equal number of happy Samsung chip owners... my battery life is better than on any previous iPhone, and easily gets me through the day (and then some)... of course, some just have to keep the pot stirred, I suppose.

Stir the pot, keeps the chips from sticking and burning on bottom of pot
 
Due to my indecision I have owned 3 iPhone 6S Pluses and I didn't think it would matter but I do notice a difference in the TSMC vs Samsung in terms of battery life. Both got great (better than any Android) battery life but the TSMC is amazing.
 
I have a brand new 64 GB, iPhone 6s Plus, Space Gray waiting for me at home...have had it for a few days but just haven't had a chance to set everything up and get it activated (busy with work, family, etc.)

I am looking forward to checking the chip when I get it set up...I honestly won't care which one it is...I just think it's fun to check (from a geek standpoint)

But I've had TSMC and Samsung iPhone 6s's...I did not notice a difference in battery life...however, I did notice that the TSMC model seemed less laggy though..that's the only difference.
 
Guys... I bought last saturday a new iPhone 6s and it tourned out that it has a Samsung chip. Well I did not really care until the moment I realized that my phone started to get hot, without having a sim card and I was just surfing on safari. Battery Life is crap compared to my 2 year old iPhone 5.
Did any of you exchange your phone against an iPhone with a TMSC chip and if so how did u do it? Furthermore I would like to point out that I bought mine through my operator...

6s + Samsung chip = No over heating = Very good battery life. Just because you have a samsung chip does not mean it over heats because of it.

Yes but in my opinion ur bigger phone makes it easier to cope with the heat. That's from what i read and figured out. But currently my battery direftly overheats once i start using my phone. It's really not normal and moreover, my 2 years old iPhone 5 coped much better with the heat and the battery lasts also longer.

I exchanged my Sammy 6s for a TSMC. The genius sympathized and actually had to open 2 to get me a TSMC. Get a genius that's a geek and they will know. They also know that the Sammy is subpar. The genius that I dealt with said that was one of the first things that he checked for on his personal phone.

That would be grest, however in my country (Luxembourg) we do not have an official app store. Only premium resellers . So at the moment i really don't know what to do
 
I take it - this is pretty bad lol

6s - Samsung Chip -_-

And yes - my phone definitely overheats.

We are sitting in the same boat. It s ridiculuous this battery life. Weren't u thinking about bringing the phone back? Because you have a legit proof that your phone does not last even 6 hours...

Does any of you has facebook and messenger of their iphone? Did you see any difference when you first had the two apps on your phone regarding battery life and then without the two?
 
Well these stats are definitely not for me All day on wifi, 35% battery and only 4h45min battery usage.. 1 week old phone
