There was more to it than just the increased RAM. Opening apps was also significantly faster because of the NVMe storage on the 6S which made drawing to memory really fast as well. The A9 was a quite healthy improvement over the A8 as well. All of those together were why the 6S was only a year newer than the 6, but got two years more OS updates(iOS 15.7 vs 12.7).
That and the A9 chip was also a huge jump and the addition of NVME storage. The 6s/6s plus are actually still decent phones. Other factors are at play besides ram.
I'm still using the 6 until now and I gotta say it still runs as good as modern phones, some issue are that most apps are now unsupported requiring mostly iOS 13 and later, launching an app takes about a 10-30 seconds, and battery life lasting only 6 hours.
my iPhone 8 would last like 6 hours max lol id be sick o had a iPhone 12 but my son destroyed that and now all it does is over heat and dont turn on @@rakefn7803
I’ve had my iPhone 6 for 4 years now and I really like this phone because the form factor is definitely one of apple’s best in my opinion. It’s kinda sad because app support has been lacklustre as of lately. This phone also had a headphone jack which is really quite useful. I might try upgrade to the iPhone SE 3 this year because of the fact that it keeps the same form factor with the newer A15 bionic chip.
Pretty well any modern smartphone has a decent enough camera for most people; people complain about single cameras like the new iPhone SE but they’re all honestly fine unless you’re a photographer
Agreed. Any photographer is more than likely going to start with an iPhone, and upgrade to a bigger DSLR as well. At least that was my videography path
I am glad I am not the only one that hates new phones and am trying to find the perfect balance in a phone. Currently using 2016 SE and am enjoying it.
😂🤷🏽♀️There are people still use an iPhone 6 including me if you are low income or struggling iPhone 6 is are a blessing right now no one can afford the newest versions great video though
I bought the iPhone SE 2 128gig on Black Friday brand new from cricket wireless for only $99 dollars! And it even came with two months of there 60 dollars unlimited plan included! I love the size of the 4.7 inch screen and the home button. ✌🏼😎👍🏻
im currently using iphone 6s plus now..no problem so far even at 16gb i managed to disciplin my downloads to least..this puts me to offliad unusable apps and put me in a situtation to focus more on whats important to work
I use an iPhone 6S Plus 64 GB and it works excellent, just a little slower then the newer versions. But I do not play games, so the difference is not huge.
What iPhone do you recommend Looking for something that doesn't break the bank that's not extremely fancy but just gets common apps done like RUclips and stuff You know the essentials and also has tap pay My budget is around 200 to 300

I loved my iPhone 6. The mother board burnt out and died. My husband won’t let me use his. I would have chosen the iPhone 8 with maximum storage. I have a iPhone 14 and my back up phone is an 11.

@@techno_eclipse i can't tell you how much i lost oh boy. i had bad depression 2.5 years ago i lost countless money now im broke. but luckelly menthally im good again thats more important for me
Idk why people think if they have an older or smaller phone it’ll keep them from using it as much. I use old and small iPhones all the time and I’m practically always on them.
I bought one didn’t know about the s model, stuck on iOS 12.... other wise it would have still been able to do almost all basic apps, messages and pics, I have to use web browser to view eBay, email, and such and even sometimes it dosesnt load correctly all the time lol
totally nothing wrong with the 6. I used the iPhone 6 for soooo many years , I can’t remember exactly what year but I got it forsure 7th or 8th grade after having my first iPod touch in 6th grade. I’m 19 now turning 20 in june and I used that iPhone 6 forever! I barely upgraded to the the 13 pro about 8 months ago and damn I felt like a grandpa using it , I didn’t know how to do a handful of things on it i was lost without that home button trying to control that thing 😂😂😂 iPhone 6 gang tho fasho 👌🏼❗️I wouldn’t mind using it again at all just the screen is way to small now for me I would want at least the 6splus that phone is amazing too with it’s size 💯
ur bald

This made me laugh so hard haha.
@@techno_eclipse are you really pinned comment

The 1 GB of RAM really crippled the 6. That’s why the 6s (went up to 2 GB) saw such a boom with improvements.

I used the iPhone 6 Plus as a backup for 2 months. It worked well for the most basics.

The form factor is the first thing I noticed about the phone. Just wonderful to hold in the hand
Wait I’m same with you, I’m upgrading from 6 Plus (I use) to SE 3 (2022)..

Try The I phone SE 2 Or SE3
My great grandma had a 6 all the way up until Christmas of 2022 and did a fine job for all those years until there new 14
Try google photos to store videos and pictures that what I use on my iPhone 6
Have you ever thought of moving to android? They have minimalist launchers

An iPhone 6s or something newer is significantly better for T-Mobile since they get LTE Band 12 (which improves T-Mobile's indoor signal).
Got a 32gb iPhone 6 trying it soon

Why not get an iPhone 7 with 256GB? Still old enough to be inconvenient but could solve your photos issue and has the same form factor etc
My iPhone 6s has 32 GB
Can I use app store, I cloud and other iOS apps in iphone6 in 2023
It’s a bit of hit and miss
Im wondering the same if i should purchase one
Hi Scott. Your videos are different and i have a similar taste. Keep going
I still use my 6, my only problem is the battery health, I've gotta replace it soon
give us a sitrep pls

I cannot use the Apple iPhone 6, as it does not support the payment apps in India. Hence, using an Apple iPhone 7 128GB, got it for 50$.
I got the 11 pro in 2023 and I got no lag, a lot of people tell me the 11 is lagging a lot but I have iOS 16.6 on my 11 pro and I got no lag😂😂🎉
Use an iPhone 6S with 64Gig and it does all I need. Has iOS 15.8 on it right now!
I think the iPhone 6S would have been a better choice, even the 32GB model…I am currently using an iPhone SE 3rd gen and I love mine
In 2023? I’m using a 6 plus in 2024! 😄
I got a 6s for a side phone it’s a 32g and they don’t bend like the reg 6 lol
Just upgraded from my iPhone 6 to the 12

It is good to be able to acknowledge your mistakes and learn from them.

Did you know that you can upgrade the storage on that phone on the iPhone 6s to 256GB
How ?
@@danwilks8481 you have to take it to a repair shop to do it i saw some videos on RUclips about it
I have that phone!
il est décent, mais il est un peu lent sur les applications comme youtube ou discord
Im watching this video on my iPhone 6 in 2023 and i jailbreaked my iPhone 6 by using a iOS 16 theme on it and run really well in 2023
1:10 *storage*
Can I watch movies on this phone for long?
What is 3D Touch
One flip phone is the Jazz Digit 4G. It is a nice little thing to use. Get it and you won’t regret it.
I will look into this, thanks for watching!
I'm using one right know, i jailbroken it and its a fun thing
One question... Does RUclips still work?
Yes it lags but it still works
im using a iphone 6 for a daily purpose and for me its just fine really.
Idk why people think if they have an older or smaller phone it’ll keep them from using it as much. I use old and small iPhones all the time and I’m practically always on them.
I’ve been using a 6s for a few days with very positive results
@@techno_eclipseyeah the 6s was a huge improvement over the 6. I use one.
I use android phones. 200$ dollars is my limit.
With 200$ i think u can get a 7 plus
Apple planned that to be obsolete. Buy a samsung instead
I would say the iphone 6s Plus was the best plus right now its on ios 15.8.2 which aint that old
When it starts overheating it’s totally unusable yunno.
It’s pretty much 2014 🆚 2021
Yeah, even in 2014 reviewers were complaining about that borderline useless 16gb variant.
try a 6s it will be much better experience
I just replaced the battery from my iPhone 6 for cheap it was really easy to do
