Specs mean little when the whole os is built purely to fit that one and only phone. That's why it performs so good.
And no, I don't use Apple. I recognize their devices are very good, at looking good and being smooth. I like productivity though. SD card, torrent, full os control, PC friendly, etc.
Apple is faster and smoother despite specs because it was made to be faster and smoother, not useful.

They're decent phones but just not worth the price.
It's like 1100 dollars here last time I checked.

Just because you can afford a more expensive product doesn't make it a better buy. Lots of Android or windows phones will do exactly what you need. Some will do it better, some will do it worse.

Why don't you lInk the rest of the review where the iPhone 6 scores consistently near the top?

Literally physics is the only benchmark the 6 performs poorly in, it's easily in the top quarter in almost all if the benchmarks, even in late 2015.

Not to mention the 6S flat out destroys every other mobile phone.

I work at a very busy phone store for a very large carrier. I promise, 75% of all phones that come in to be fixed (meaning software as my store does only minor physical repair) are iPhones for some of the most retarded reasons. Had one guy have to hard reset his iP6S+ because his voicemail decided it wasnt going to work anymore. Had a guy today have his just die. No reason, just died and nothing got it to come back on. GSX tool and charging it had no avail. Apple cucks dont want to learn what "manufacture cannibalism" is. Yes, they intentionally fuck your shit after a while with mandatory updates. Lie to yourself all you want, from a business stand point, its not a bad idea. Not a moral one, but this is business baby, come on.

You realize you can change the battery on an iPhone in about 4 minutes flat right?
It's actually one of the easiest batteries to change in any phone.
Meanwhile samsung and HTC are making it impossible to change the battery by gluing the phone together instead of using screws.

>>
>>52086906
It's a great device, although I think going for the 6s or waiting a year might have been a better idea. You're missing out on two key features: a much better camera and 3D touch. The former is pretty important if you like taking pictures on-the-go, but the latter is where it's really at. Out of all the innovations that have been stuck into phones over the past several years, this is by far the most important one as it directly affects usability. Android phones with a similar feature will follow soon, as will WP if they don't close down the whole fucking division for good by that point.

Camera isn't much different and 3D touch isn't getting much support at all, besides homescreen right-click functionality.
The most important upgrade on the 6S however is the RAM, pretty much turns constant reloading into instant resume for everything except games.
