Are the 6s and the 6s Plus calling your name?
While there are some flashy upgrades to the new iPhone (like fancy 3-D touch and "live photos) that might entice some to switch over, others need some more convincing. Is it really worth it? Here are some things to consider:
A faster A9 processor is a boon for everyone, and the speed is most noticeable when switching between apps. Whether your main focus is playing games, getting work done, or maybe a bit of both, the increased speed is definitely a plus.
Apple also increased the speed of its Touch ID feature. It continues to keep your phone secure, but enables you to log in quicker when you're on the go.
An unlikely feature to take advantage of: Always-On Siri. The idea of a device that's "always listening" is a scary or exciting prospect, depending on how you look at it. But when you're behind the wheel of a car and need directions is when it will come into use. Another thing it's useful for? Locating your device when it decides to "hides" somewhere, like in the crack of your couch.
