          48 hours after getting my 6S…it's ok

          Battery life is impressive, screen doesn't seem like an upgrade to me from the 5S. If it is an upgrade, it certainly isn't the life altering experience as when I first saw Retina. I'm a little spoiled from my Macbook Pro Retina that I'm usually on.

          The camera is a noticeable upgrade. Pictures are definitely sharper and more vibrant.

          The "Hey Siri" function is weird at best. Maybe I'm old school, maybe I'm paranoid, but it feels like my phone is listening to me all the time waiting for me to address it.

          The new 3D press thing is less than useful to me. I'm pretty proficient with iOS already, so it doesn't add a lot of value to me.

              … Also, this afternoon I noticed a new folder in my photos titled "selfies". I didn't create this folder, my phone did. I opened it to find all five selfies that I've ever taken in my life and no other pictures. So my phone obviously knows what I look like, searched all my photos, and found all my selfies and organized them into their own folder. Wtf.

              there are just all pics made with the front cam of the phone in this folder….

                    From 5S to 6S day to day the screen has been what impresses me most. I just look and stare at the screen more than I should.

                    3D Touch will come with time, most apps don't support it. I like it on Photos where it pops up this time last year. It does save a little bit of time, but requires a consistent update in Apps before it's going to feel natural…

                          Hahahaha.  It'll take one trip with @Madame Buttonfly to find out for sure, but there are definitely less holes for her to inject (at some force) coffee into the innards…..

                              Nice. I definitely want to hear your thoughts after you have had a chance to use it.

                                A friend has one, he raves about how great it is.  The global cellular feature is great, we were abroad together, he switched it on and he was given a list of data plans he could use and what the price would be.  Brilliant if the country you are in does not have data roaming.

                                  price and data plans with a list, doesn't that depend on your subscriber back home though, for this feature to happen?

                                      anybody ever had any problems with a none functional touchpad and/or keyboard on their MacBook pro? :-\

                                      mine somehow isn't working anymore and after pressing the power button to shut it down and pressing it again to fire it up, I can't even move the courser or anything. a couple of seconds afterwards, a screen pops up and searches for a bluetooth keyboard…since it isn't even 6months old, this is pissing me off I have to say 😠

                                      maybe one of you guys can help...would be cool, thanks. :-\

                                        Never had that issue myself, but I always suggest going into the Apple store for hardware issues. Every time I've encountered a weird hardware problem they've fixed me up without a hitch. Especially considering that the computer is only 6 months old.
