Hi all. I recently bought a 6S plus and using my 5S phone doesn't feel "that good anymore". Is this because I have the latest? I guess the 5S's 4 inch screen is looking dated now (when compared with my 6S - so just wondering - is it because I have the latest?) Thanks.
Got a tip for us?

A deliciously ambiguous question that I fear only you can answer. The 6S has almost double the hardware performance of the 5S, so it does feel a lot snappier. Furthermore the larger screen may be more to your liking.
The 5S is still a very capable phone, one that I use, so the fact it "doesn't feel that good anymore" isn't likely to be down to anything other than the newer one runs nicer?

My wife has a 5s, and I have a 6s Plus. I use her phone sometimes and though it seems really tiny now, it still seems to perform quite well with the latest OS and I notice how light it is. I think they are two different devices with pros/cons each way. I hope that they produce a newly styled small iPhone at some point and don't just keep making that one or let it die off. My wife is a heavy iPad user, so the iPhone to her is not used nearly as much as I use mine. I've kind of retired my iPad since getting the iPhone 6s Plus.
You got it right. I *love* the larger screen and would never go back to the 4" inches. It's good having a backup device. I love the screen on the 6S Plus and can't wait to see technology improve as the years go on. The 5S is still quite snappy and good for it's age. I guess I'd rather use the newest if given the choice (both devices in front of me).A deliciously ambiguous question that I fear only you can answer.

What seems lighter to you? The 5S or the 6S Plus? ^^ Thanks for the detailed reply.
