iPhone 6s or 6s Plus: which model to choose? The criteria to decide!

It is Saturday September 12 that the
Orders for the iPhone 6s start, at 9:01 a.m. to be precise. So beyond

check which sites will sell it
, it is important
for having made your choice!

Like last year, the question of the model:6s or 6s Plus must
arise for many buyers
. There are differences between the two
new iPhone 6s, size of course, but also more subtle
deviations. SOwhich model is best suited, for what use
?
Size, weight, screen resolution, photo/video aspect or
specific functions of iOS, here are the differences to gauge:

A testimony was added, not immediately, but several weeks later
having used both machines. Heis at

.

Height and weight

Unlike last year, the format of the two machines is now
well known and normally it was possible for everyone to see what it looked like
an iPhone 6s and a 6s Plus, since they are identical in size to the 6
and 6 Plus.

So the choice there is extremely personal and perhaps so obvious
that the following criteria do not even need to be examined. These are two
very different machines physically.

then comes the question of weight: the 6s Plus like the 6s have gained
overweight compared to last year! In the end, we arrive with the
6s Plus to a machine that weighs almost 200g(192 precisely),
it's not insignificant in your pocket now. The iPhone 6s will only take up
143 g.

But that's not all... If the choice is not completely made, it is necessary
know that Apple has complicated the choice with technical differences not
necessarily obvious at first glance, between the two machines.

Screen resolution

the screens display another difference than the size: this is the
number of pixels displayed.

Thus, the 4.7-inch iPhone 6s hasa density in terms of points of
326 per inch
by displaying1 334 x 750 pixels.
The screen is also different witha contrast announced to be better
(400:1) on iPhone 6 vs. 6+
(300:1). It was the same
on the series 6, to the eye the difference is not really perceptible.

Theresolution of the 6+ is much higher, in value but also in
density
. These are1920 x 1080 pixels which are displayed for
a density of 401 pixels per inch
. This gives perfect sharpness,
not necessarily necessary, but always good to take especially with a good
vue.

The interest of the 6s Plus screen then becomes obvious for fans of
photo, video editing and other users of the new sensor who want
be able to examine the photos in great detail.

The photo

This is another element which can help to decide whether the heart is swinging
encore !

The iPhone 6s Plus has the advantage of havinga stabilizer
optical
which reduces the impact of movements in terms of blur or
jerks for photo and video now.

We now feel it: to make the best use of the machine in order to make
quality photos, videos and benefit from a large screen for
viewing and editing, without the hassle of another device or an iPad,
The iPhone 6s Plus is the choice to consider.

Autonomy

This is a major argument!The iPhone 6s Plus is bigger,
more bulky and this allows it to carry a much larger battery
more substantial than the 6s
.
An example from the data provided by Apple: the iPhone 6s displays a
autonomy of14h en conversation 3G, the iPhone 6s Plus is
measured at24 h en conversation.

From experience with the 6Plus, weeasily lasts the day
autonomy
where that of the 6 remains classic for the iPhone, a small
intensive day.

Differences even in iOS

These differences are not mentioned in the technical specifications
of the machine, but they must be mentioned!

The iOS 9 system works differently depending on whether it is used on the iPhone
6s 4.7 inches or on the 5.5 inches__.

So,l’iPhone 6s Plusoffers areal fashion
landscape
, the home screen rotates:

This is practical for those who have to use their machine in this
smell it regularly. This is particularly the case in the car: when
the iPhone is set for GPS in landscape, if you wish (during the break) to go
read your emails or other, you no longer have to go through a screen to read on the side to
access other applications.

It's unfortunate that this isn't available on the standard iPhone 6...
But hey, you have to go up to 5.5 inches to benefit from it.

Regarding standard apps, and those that are developed
specifically, theysome display a side flap,
like an iPad
:

But that's not all and some applications have specific features
on the 6s+ (and 6+): the contact app displays photos in the list of
contacts :

For the rest: colors offered and memory capacity, these are the
same, no questions to ask for this specific case.

Finally, nothing beats experience. So here it isthe
testimony after several weeks of using a 6 and a 6 Plus, as well
that the choice finally made
.

So, there remains one question for those who are equipping themselves this year:
Ultimately,6s ou 6s Plus ?
