Description
A breakthrough design. Pushed even further.
iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus take everything that made the previous generation great, and advance it to a new level. They’re made with 7000 Series aluminum, the strongest alloy we’ve ever used in an iPhone. They both feature Retina HD displays made from the strongest cover glass used on any smartphone in the world. And now they’re available in an elegant new rose gold ?nish.
7000 Series aluminum. Stronger from the outside in.
The iPhone 6s enclosure is made from the same grade used in the aerospace industry. This aluminum is created from a unique composition of elements that make it the strongest alloy we’ve ever used in an iPhone.
The world’s strongest smartphone glass. Now even stronger.
The new glass on iPhone 6s is made using a special dual ion exchange process, which makes it stronger at a molecular level and the most durable in the smartphone industry.
Software and hardware. A deeper connection.
If iPhone 6s seems like it’s tailor made for iOS, that’s because it is. Each hardware component — from the A9 chip to the Home button — is designed to get the most out of iOS. And likewise, iOS is designed to maximize the performance and functionality of the hardware it runs on. Together, they deliver a powerful and enjoyable experience because they were designed that way — together.
3D Touch
iPhone 6s was designed specifically to work with 3D Touch, the next generation of Multi-Touch. 3D Touch is a revolutionary pressure sensing technology that lets you get to the content you want simply by pressing the display. Capacitive sensors measure the pressure you apply on the glass. You instantly see a response on the screen and feel feedback from the all new Taptic Engine. 3D Touch is a perfect example of the magic that happens when hardware and software are designed together. 3D Touch can only perform because it was designed alongside iPhone 6s.
A9 chip
The A9 chip is made speci?cally for iPhone. By designing our own chip, we can tailor its performance to how people really use their iPhone. So the things you do every day — browsing the web, using apps, taking photos — work even better. This level of integration between the A9 chip and iOS 9 means that your iPhone performs better and works more e?ciently than if we used an off-the-shelf chip that we didn’t design.
