Huge changes coming to iPhone 6S — here’s what to expect
- 9 years ago
Apple has formally announced that the iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus will be a huge departure from previous versions of the popular device.
The formal announcement won’t come until September 9th, but a recent Forbes report breaks down the difference between the older versions and the new 6S.
For one thing, Apple will alter the iOS input method to allow for what is known as “Force Touch.”
This will bring additional controls by using a strong press on the screen — a bit of a risk not just because of the changes to the iOS, but it must be intuitive or it may be a big drawback for consumers.
However, if successful, it could provide consumers with a range of additional ways to use their iPhone.
Another new innovation is a 12 MP Rear Camera with 4K video capabilities.
Previous generations have used an 8 MP camera, but Apple is aiming for a 50 percent sensor increase for its iPhone 6S and 6S Plus versions, allowing it to provide greater detail in shots and improved video that will, for the first time, be shot in 4K Ultra HD.
