[Official] Apple iPhone 6S/6S Plus Discussions

New iphone user here, does anyone know if there is a way to defragment? I mean surely u will install some apps, find that they are not so useful or good or for whatever reason, then u delete them. As time goes on like that, surely the phone will slow down right? Seems like can't find a good app for this purpose in app store..

err defrag? smartphones all use flash storage. one should never defrag flash storage...

No such app or any need to defragment. The phone ises FLASH memory and not a mechanical hard drive. If you find the phone slowing down, just reboot it.

Oh I see, noted, will do, thank you for your advice!

Are any significant battery life differences between 6 and 6s? Planning to re-contract for 6s..

Both are definitely more energy efficient compared to previous generations. IPhone 6s Plus has a bigger battery capacity mainly becos of the larger screen. I am using 6s plus and the battery can last more than a day with frequent usage like playing coc, surfing hwz, fb & WhatsApp.

Here is my usage info.
Usage: 6hrs 48mins
Standby: 23hrs 20mins
Battery %: 34%

darren89 is comparing 6 and 6s, not any plus model.

If phone is getting slow due to memory, try this.

Press and hold the power button till you see the "slide to off" slider appears. Do not slide it. Now press and hold the home button till the screen disappears. I read that this will free up memory.

is anyone using a rose gold 6S Plus? i never dropped or knocked my phone before but recently I've been seeing small scuffs around the frame, and on the 2 sides some of the rose gold has actually came off and i can see the actual alu color underneath @_@

is this a build defect or is it common? they occurred when i was using microfiber cloth to gently rub the phone...

 

[Morugana]

I think its common for anything which is just painted/coated with rose gold or other colors will definitely peel or come off after awhile. It's not solid gold after all.

Anyone noticed that pull down to refresh no longer works on the latest version of Chrome?
