The new 6s and 6s Plus still have the same body design of the last year’s iPhones, however Apple has made the bodies of the new iPhones stronger by using 7000 series aluminum.

Both devices kept their 4.7” and 5.5 old displays, however now they have HD Retina displays with 3D Touch. In addition to familiar Multi‑Touch gestures like Tap, Swipe, and Pinch, the 3D Touch introduces Peek and Pop. The 3D Touch display, means the device’s touchscreen can detect three different levels of pressure. There are sensors embeded within the screen allowing it to react to each touch differently based on the amount of pressure applied to screen. It is designed for easy and simple access to apps, menus, email and so on.

Peek and Pop let you preview all kinds of content and even act on it — without having to actually open it. For example, with a light press you can Peek at each email in your inbox. Then when you want to open one, press a little deeper to Pop into it.

The new iPhones are powered by a 64-bit A9 chip with an embedded M9 motion coprocessor and are equipped with 2nd-generation Touch ID, LTE Advanced and faster Wi-Fi connectivity. Apple has even pumped up the RAM to 2GB instead of the last year 1GB of RAM. Additionally, the new devices have the biggest camera jump ever, competing with rivals, the likes of LG with the G4 and Samsung with the Galaxy S6.

As for as battery goes, there is no improvement in the battery department for the new iPhones. Both the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus come with lower mAh battery capacities, in fact lower than last year models. The “mAh” is an abbreviation for milliampere-hour, a measurement of a battery’s power capacity; the higher the number, the better.

The iPhone 6s packs a disappointing 1,715mAh battery, which is lower than the 1,810mAh inside last year iPhone 6. Things do not get any better for the iPhone 6s Plus, the device is expected to host a 2,750mAh instead of the 2,910mAh. Despite the lower mAh battery power capacities, Apple claims that both new devices still have the same talk time and standby time of last year models.

The rear 12-Megapixel iSight camera has a ƒ/2.2 Aperture, optical image stabilization, and dual tone color flash. The 5-Megapixel frontal camera has a Retina flash; where it uses the display to work as a flash when shooting photos. The iPhone 6s and s6 Plus main cameras now can shoot 4K videos (3840 by 2160) at 30 fps.

With the new iPhones you can take Live Photos; “You don’t do anything different. You just take a photo as you always have,” Schiller says. It simply works by capturing a 1.5s of video movements on either side of the photo when you take a photo and then play it back as a live photo.

The Live Photos can be viewed on Apple’s entire ecosystem including; the Mac, iPad, iPhone, and can even be set as a watch face for the Apple Watch. The feature is enabled by default and you can disable it via the camera’s menu.
