Lots of people complained about lagginess of the 6 Plus, esp. with iOS 9. This was corrected in the 6s Plus, presumably because it had twice the RAM.For me the 6P has been the best phone I've owned to date, it doesn't really have slowdowns (only really notice any if I'm updating apps) and everything runs mostly smooth and it gets by far the best battery life of any phone I've ever used despite what benchmarks say. I don't really play games but for everything I use my phone for it hasn't struggled for power. I will say I'm always impressed how much power Apple gets out of it's processors, can't say it really was noticeable when I had my last iphone (the 6) as there were apps that were still pretty choppy and it didn't feel too much faster than the Android phones I had at the time.
I cared much more about processor power and benchmarks like 5 years ago, back then a phone with better hardware would run noticeably better to me, nowadays it's not as noticeable.
Not buying into actually caring about performance for over a year now, but this was interesting
HOLY CRAP I should definitely spend 600 bucks to open apps a little faster and no longer use any of my headphones.
They include an adapter so you can use your headphones.
What phone do you use now?
Interesting. Thanks for posting that. This basically confirms why whenever I pick up an Android phone, it feels sluggish and almost unusable because of how slow things are compared on the iPhone.Not buying into actually caring about performance for over a year now, but this was interesting
I agree with you there. However, speed is a feature. And a major one at that.As someone interested in technology I always look forward to Apple's releases, in particular to see how much more they are able to squeeze out of their processors.
As a consumer, I buy my mobile devices based on what features they provide not how much processing power they contain inside. I don't need a lot of power or cutting edge hardware honestly on my phone. It doesn't take a lot of horsepower to make calls, send text messages or surf the web. I just want the ability to customize my device to my liking and of the two platforms only one meets that requirement. Would I like to have the SOC optimization Apple has in their devices? Sure, why not? It isn't even close to a requirement however.
