On the 9th of September 2015, Apple announced the official launch if its phones: the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus. The phones, being the most advanced iPhones ever, come with a powerful new dimension to iPhones’ revolutionary Multi-Touch interface. The phones also feature Retina HD displays made from the 7000 series aluminum, the same alloy used in the aerospace industry. Speaking at the unveiling, Philip Schiller, Apple’s Senior Vice President of worldwide marketing stated that “The only thing that has changed with iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus is everything, from 3D Touch, which lets users interact with iPhone in entirely new and fun ways, to the innovative Live Photos … Customers are going to love them.”   SPECIFICATIONS 3D Touch: iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus introduce new ways to navigate and experience iPhone by sensing pressure to enable new gestures: Peek and Pop, so you can dip in and out of content without losing your place. Press lightly to peek at a photo, email, web page or other content, and press a little deeper to Pop into the content itself. With Quick Actions, 3D Touch provides shortcuts to the things you do most, so you can send a message or take a selfie with just a simple press from the home screen. Camera Innovations: iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus introduce Live Photos, which goes beyond snapshots to capture moments in motion. Live Photos are beautiful 12-megapixel photos that, with just a press, reveal the moments immediately before and after the shot was taken, so you can enjoy a living memory rather than an instant frozen in time. Advanced Technology:  A9, Apple’s third-generation 64-bit chip powers these innovations with 70 percent faster CPU and 90 percent faster GPU performance than the A8, all with gains in energy efficiency for great battery life. The A9 chip and iOS 9 are merged for optimal performance where it matters most, in real world usage. M9, Apple’s next-generation motion coprocessor, is embedded into A9, allowing more features to run all the time at lower power, including “Hey Siri,” without the iPhone needing to be plugged in. With advanced wireless technologies including faster Wi-Fi and LTE Advanced, iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus users can browse, download and stream content even faster. The new iPhones also support up to 23 LTE bands — the most in any smartphone — for better worldwide roaming. iOS 9, the world’s most advanced mobile operating system, brings more intelligence to iPhone with proactive assistance, powerful search and improved Siri features, all while protecting users’ privacy.

I bet my fellow gadget freaks are already looking forward to their availability in Nigeria. Well, we sure hope that will be soon enough. Till then, we will just keep ourselves company with our old phones.   About the Writer: Eniola Adeniji is a woman after God’s own heart, a motivational Writer, Speaker, Fashion and Photography addict.
