10 reasons to still buy iPhone 6S instead of iPhone 8 and iPhone X

Although being a 2 – year – old device, iPhone 6S is still one of the most favorite smartphones from Apple. And it’s worth to buy. Here are 10 reasons why you should pick this one instead of iPhone 8 or iPhone X.

1. More affordable

The first reason we have to mention is the price. It is one of the most important factors affecting customer’s decisions. The new iPhone 8 and iPhone X with the new powerful chipset must come with a higher price. iPhone X price (64GB ROM) comes at about $1000, iPhone 8 price (64GB ROM) is about $700 while iPhone 8  Plus price (64GB) is set at $800.

On the other hand, iPhone 6, as well as iPhone 6 Plus, is more affordable. With $450, you can own yourself an iPhone 6S with 32GB of inbuilt storage. iPhone 6S Plus price for the 32GB ROM variant is $100 higher- $550.

2. Different color versions

If you are an iPhone fan, you can easily recognize that iPhone 6S and 6S Plus have more color versions than the two new handsets. IP8 comes in 3 colors: silver, gold and space gray, iPhone X even comes with fewer color: silver and space gray. Meanwhile, the predecessors have 4 color variants: silver, space gray, gold and rose gold.

 

3. Metal rear panel

One of the new cool iPhones this year is wireless charging. The glass backs allow these phones to charge wirelessly through Qi standard. However, this also means that the rear panel can easily crack after a fall. The aluminum panel of IP 6S won’t shatter or break easily like that. It, of course, may have some dings and dents.

4. Nearly identical to iPhone 8

If you’re looking for an iPhone with a fresh new look, there’s no doubt that iPhone X will be the first choice. However, you want to buy iPhone 8, then you might want to look at iPhone 6S again. IP6S, 6S Plus and IP8, these devices have the similar design. They all come with the same size of bezels, same shape, same screen size and same screen resolution.

5. Fast charging

In case you may not know, both the new iPhones have the same charging speed as iPhone 6S. Apple said that iPhone 8 and iPhone X can be refilled up to 50% in 30 minutes. But to get that speed, you have to buy extra accessories like USB Type C to Lightning power cable and. To use wireless charging function, you have to buy a separate charger.

6. Runs smoothly

The A9 chipset of iPhone 6S  is still one of the powerful chipsets. With this Apple A9, you can update your phone to iOS 11 and there’s barely any slowdown. The performance, of course, is not as fast as iPhone 8’s but it is still good enough to use.

7. Fantastic main cam

It’s is undeniable that iPhone 8 is one of the best camera smartphones in the market with a 7MP selfie snapper and a 12MP cam on the back with f/1.8, OIS and quad LED flash. However, IP 6S can still give you the great pictures while the other handsets can’t.

8. There is a headphone jack

When releasing, iPhone 7 was complained about the inconvenience of the lack of headphone jack. And Apple still keeps this feature on the new iPhones. So, if you don’t want to use the airpods and the headphone jack still matters to you, iPhone 6S is a perfect choice.

9. The great screen

With the two new products, Apple added a new feature to the screen, containing TrueTone. This can adjust the color temperature to suit the lighting in your environment. iPhone 6S, of course, don’t have this feature. However, you will find it difficult to recognize the differences. The screen of IP6S has the same sharpness and resolution as iPhone 8’s.

10. iOS

The last reason is the OS. These handsets run on the same operating system. There are some great software-based features which can only be found on IP8 and iPhone X. For the most part, you will have the same experiences on iPhone.
