To start off with, the iPhone 6S is a slightly more upgraded version from the iPhone 6.
Compared to its predecessor, it does have better graphics and faster CPU speed
overall, but there was not really much to distinguish it from the iPhone 6 in terms of
function. The camera, while it does take clearer photos than the previous one, has
features that have people questioning their use. The ‘Live Photos’ feature lets you string
together a few photos with audio to give a
somewhat disjointed video snippet (or
moving pictures). While the function is
entertaining, it does not seem to provide
much use in day to day life. The video
function would work just as well. Apple
also incorporates the ‘3D’ touch feature,
which lets you push on the screen to
allow for pop-up menus to open, which is
supposed to let you accomplish small
tasks. This feature is the same as the ‘Live Photos’ one; it is
redundant. There is no actual need for this. There have
also been complaints with the battery, that it is not long lasting enough compared to
other smartphone brands. To top it all off, the iPhone 6S also goes on sale for about
$1000. That is not a price tag to pay when you just want to upgrade your phone.
The Samsung Galaxy S7 is the opposite of the iPhone 6S in that it is for more practical. The
new features added make it ideal for travel. The battery is miles ahead of the iPhone 6S,
lasting well over a day with constant use, meaning there would be no need to
remember to bring a charger along for long
journeys. The camera is also miles ahead of
the iPhone 6S, where pictures come out crisp
even in areas with low light. One of the only
critiques for the camera function would be
that selfies taken would come out looking
rather plastic, even when taken from
different angles. The different features in
the Samsung is also fully customizable to
one’s own personal tastes suitable for
people like gamers, who use their phones
differently. Also, the startup storage space
is almost twice that of the iPhone, offering
up 32 GB to the iPhone’s 16 GB. Not to mention, the screen size
