They were announced on September 9 , 2015 , at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco by Apple CEO Tim Cook , with pre-orders beginning September 12 and official release on September 25 , 2015 . The iPhone 6S and 6S Plus were succeeded by the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus in September 2016 . The iPhone 6S has a similar design to the 6 but updated hardware , including a strengthened chassis and upgraded system - on - chip , a 12 - megapixel camera , improved fingerprint recognition sensor , and LTE Advanced support . The iPhone 6S also introduces a new hardware feature known as `` 3D Touch '' , which enables pressure - sensitive touch inputs . iPhone 6S had a mostly positive reception . While performance and camera quality were praised by most reviewers , the addition of 3D Touch was liked by one critic for the potential of entirely new interface interactions , but disliked by another critic for not providing users with an expected intuitive response before actually using the feature . The battery life was criticized , and one reviewer asserted that the phone 's camera was n't significantly better than the rest of the industry . The iPhone 6S set a new first - weekend sales record , selling 13 million models , up from 10 million for the iPhone 6 in the previous year . However , Apple saw its first - ever quarterly year - over-year decline in iPhone sales in the months after the launch , credited to a saturated smartphone market in Apple 's biggest countries and a lack of iPhone purchases in developing countries . Contents ( hide ) 1 History 2 Specifications 2.1 Hardware 2.2 Software 3 Reception 3.1 Sales 4 Hardware issues 4.1 Unexpected battery shutdowns 5 Timeline of models 6 References 7 External links History ( edit ) Before the official unveiling , several aspects of the iPhone 6S were rumored , including the base model having 16 gigabytes of storage , the pressure - sensitive display technology known as 3D Touch , and a new rose gold color option . iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus were officially unveiled on September 9 , 2015 , during a press event at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco . Pre-orders began September 12 , with the official release on September 25 . On September 7 , 2016 , Apple announced the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus as successors to the iPhone 6S and 6S Plus . On March 31 , 2017 , the iPhone 6S and 6S Plus were released in Indonesia alongside the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus , following Apple 's research and development investment in the country . Specifications ( edit ) Hardware ( edit ) The iPhone 6S is nearly identical in design to the iPhone 6 . In response to the `` bendgate '' design flaws of the previous model , changes were made to improve the durability of the chassis : the 6S was constructed from a stronger , 7000 series aluminum alloy , `` key points '' in the rear casing were strengthened , and touchscreen Integrated circuits were re-located to the display assembly . Alongside the existing gold , silver , and space gray options , a new rose gold color option was also introduced . The iPhone 6S is powered by the Apple A9 system - on - chip , which the company stated is up to 70 % faster than Apple A8 , and has up to 90 % better graphics performance . The iPhone 6S has 2 GB of RAM , more than any previous iPhone , and also supports LTE Advanced . The Touch ID sensor on the 6S was also updated , with the new version having improved fingerprint scanning performance over the previous version . While the capacities of their batteries are slightly smaller , Apple rates iPhone 6S and 6S Plus as having the same average battery life as their respective predecessors . The A9 system - on - chip was dual - sourced from TSMC and Samsung . Although it was speculated that the Samsung version had worse battery performance than the TSMC version , multiple independent tests have shown there is no appreciable difference between the two chips . Although the device is not promoted as such , the iPhone 6S has a degree of water resistance because of a change to its internal design , which places a silicone seal around components of the logic board to prevent them from being shorted by accidental exposure to water . Their displays are the same sizes as those of the iPhone 6 , coming in 4.7 - inch 750p and 5.5 - inch 1080p ( Plus ) sizes . The iPhone 6S features a technology known as 3D Touch ; sensors are embedded in the screen 's backlight layer that measure the firmness of the user 's touch input by the distance between it and the cover glass , allowing the device to distinguish between normal and more forceful presses . 3D Touch is combined with a Taptic Engine vibrator to provide associated haptic feedback . Although similar , this is distinct from the Force Touch technology used on the Apple Watch and Retina MacBook , as it is more sensitive and can recognize more levels of touch pressure than Force Touch . Due to the hardware needed to implement 3D Touch , the iPhone 6S is heavier than its predecessor . The iPhone 6S features a 12 - megapixel rear - facing camera , an upgrade from the 8 - megapixel unit on previous models , as well as a 5 - megapixel front - facing camera . It can record 4K video , as well as 1080p video at 60 and now 120 frames per second . The iPhone 6S and 6S Plus were originally offered in models with 16 , 64 , and 128 GB of internal storage . Following the release of iPhone 7 in September 2016 , the 16 and 64 GB models were dropped , and replaced by a new 32 GB option . For improved storage performance , iPhone 6S utilizes NVM Express ( NVMe ) , resulting in a maximum average read speed of 1,840 megabytes per second . Software ( edit ) See also : iOS , iOS 9 , and iOS 10 The iPhone 6S ships with iOS 9 ; the operating system leverages the 3D Touch hardware to allow recognition of new gestures and commands , including `` peeking '' at content with a light touch and `` popping '' it into view by pressing harder , and accessing context menus with links to commonly used functions within apps with harder presses on home screen icons . The camera app 's `` Retina Flash '' feature allows the display 's brightness to be used as a makeshift flash on images taken with the front camera , while `` Live Photos '' captures a short video alongside each photo taken . Reception ( edit ) Nilay Patel of The Verge described the 6S , in particular the Plus model , as `` right now the best phone on the market . ( ... ) There just are n't other companies that can roll out a feature like 3D Touch and make it work in a way that suggests the creation of entirely new interface paradigms , and every other phone maker needs to figure out exactly why Apple 's cameras are so consistent before they can really compete . '' Samuel Gibbs of The Guardian commented that the phone `` has the potential to be the best smaller smartphone on the market , but its short battery life is deeply frustrating '' and described the camera as `` not leagues ahead of the competition anymore . '' Tom Salinger of The Register praised performance , noting that `` we 're now using phones with the performance of current PCs '' , but described 3D Touch as `` just a glorified vibrator '' and `` no good ( ... ) you still do n't know quite what 's going to happen until you try it '' . Ryan Smith and Joshua Ho of AnandTech awarded the iPhone 6S and 6S Plus its Editors ' Choice Gold Award , based largely on the phone 's performance and the addition of 3D Touch . Sales ( edit ) On the Monday following the iPhone 6S ' launch weekend , Apple announced that they had sold 13 million models , a record - breaking number that exceeded the 10 million launch sales of the iPhone 6 in 2014 . In the months following the launch , Apple saw its first - ever quarterly year - over-year decline in iPhone sales , attributed to a saturated smartphone market in Apple 's biggest sales countries and consumers in developing countries not buying iPhones . Hardware issues ( edit ) Unexpected battery shutdowns ( edit ) In November 2016 , Apple announced that a `` very small number '' of iPhone 6S devices manufactured between September and October 2015 have faulty batteries that unexpectedly shut down . While Apple noted that the battery problems were `` not a safety issue '' , it announced a battery replacement program for affected devices . Customers with affected devices , which span `` a limited serial number range '' , were able to check their device 's serial number on Apple 's website , and , if affected , receive a battery replacement free of charge at Apple Stores or authorized Apple Service Providers . In December 2016 , Apple revealed new details about the issue , stating that the affected devices contained a `` battery component that was exposed to controlled ambient air longer than it should have been before being assembled into battery packs '' . The statement also said that customers `` outside of the affected range '' may also experience unexpected shutdowns , though clarifying that some shutdowns can occur under `` normal conditions '' because the iPhone tries to `` protect its electronics '' . Apple also said that an upcoming update to the iOS operating system would include additional diagnostic tools to help Apple find more information about different kinds of battery issues . In February 2017 , Apple released a statement to TechCrunch , saying that the iOS 10.2. 1 update , released on January 23 , had reduced the occurrence of battery shutdowns by `` more than 80 % '' on iPhone 6S devices . In full , the statement read : With iOS 10.2. 1 , Apple made improvements to reduce occurrences of unexpected shutdowns that a small number of users were experiencing with their iPhone . iOS 10.2. 1 already has over 50 % of active iOS devices upgraded and the diagnostic data we 've received from upgraders shows that for this small percentage of users experiencing the issue , we 're seeing a more than 80 % reduction in iPhone 6s and over 70 % reduction on iPhone 6 of devices unexpectedly shutting down . We also added the ability for the phone to restart without needing to connect to power , if a user still encounters an unexpected shutdown . It is important to note that these unexpected shutdowns are not a safety issue , but we understand it can be an inconvenience and wanted to fix the issue as quickly as possible . If a customer has any issues with their device they can contact AppleCare . Timeline of models ( edit ) Sources : Apple press release library References ( edit ) Jump up ^ `` iPhone 6S '' .
