The additional ram helps a lot especially in browsing with many tabs opened . There is no reloading issue unlike ip6
I don't do gaming but I am sure the 2gb memory is an added advantage
3d touch I rarely used as I find is half baked effort from Apple. I rarely hit it correctly 100% !!
Get a feel of it in the store to assess better
I will not recommend an upgrade unless you had the budget for it

Yours is 6s or 6s plus?

Actually in a way, I think the color demands would affect the resell value. This is one example of a refurbished set sales thread for 6 plus.

64 GB :
Space Grey - RM 2450
Silver - RM 2600
Gold - RM 2650

128 GB:
Space Grey - RM 2500
Silver - RM 2630
Gold - RM 2650

Note that difference in color can go up to RM200 in pricings. But having said that, I would still go for the color that I like rather than focusing purely on the resell value

Taken some live photo. Can view it in iOS devices obviously but when I sent it via mail and check on my PC, it becomes a JPG (meaning not animated)

How can we take/view live photo and then able to view it from the PC?

then home button lor.

older apple devices tend to have problems with home button after a year or two, not with newer devices.

Agreed. Have issues only on the rather old idevices (pre-iphone 5). Don't have this problem since iPhone 5
Occasionally also I would use virtual home (touch the touch ID to simulate a home button action) after I jail broken my phone.

Idk how to explain it exactly. Lets say im downloading something in an app, then i want to open another app, the first app will be suspended and my donwnload will be paused also. Its really annoying to me. Last time in android if i download something from an app, it will still download in the background.

Yup. Ios do not have true multi tasking. Only if you jailbreak your device then you can have it

How is the camera then ?

Coming from 6 to 6S, I would say the camera for both were largely the same. It was bumped from 8MP to 13MP
If you view the photo from your mobile devices, then the quality are pretty similar. If you view it from a larger screen eg. PC or for printout then the higher res. is much better of course.
And I really like the Live Photos. Excellent for taking short video for moving object.

For those using 6s plus, is it abit too heavy to be used one handed? I know 6 plus is already quite hefty and 6s plus is another 20g heavier.

Haha. get used to using it or get used to using it one handed?

Had a 6 plus before but after few months.. find it abit too cumbersome (and again.. bit hefty) so switch back to the smaller 6 and later 6S.
Now again feels like going back to bigger screen - especially with the 3d touch. The bigger screen will benefit more for the 'peek' feature rclxub.gif

I have used a lot of phones and in fact still have quite a few of the latest flagships. Transitioning between them is not difficult. Immediately, you can feel the difference but after a short while, you will not even notice the size and weight difference. But for bigger phones I tend to use 2 hands to operate, just for precautionary measure.
*
Yeah. Agreed. Getting used to the size is easier than getting used to different OSes

Thanks for the feedbacks. I'm actually now torn between going from 6S to either 6 plus or 6S plus.
Like I said, i've used 6 plus before and find it abit cumbersome at times. But the extra screen and battery sure makes up for that (or also due to the same reason iit's cumbersome in the first place)

Budget is not an issue blush.gif so I can go for either 6 plus or 6S plus. The thing bothering me is if it's worth the 1k upgrade now (already into the annual iphone mid cycle release) and the extra weight which in most online sites are saying it's the heaviest phone in it's class (5.5")

Of the incremental upgrade for the S model
- Live Photo - Good to have
- 3D touch - Like one of you have pointed out, don't even notice it's there most time
- 2G RAM - Think it's faster for multi taskings or apps loading. In-app experience and speed would be mostly the same
- Siri always on - I kinda use this alot these days especially driving smile.gif
