iOS 9 vs iOS 15 on iPhone 6s - Original iOS vs Latest iOS!

[@LUKAS-bb4jc]

Some phones have been deactivating on their own, but some iPhone 6s don't have this issue at all, for that check order number and check on everymac to see which carrier it originally had, I am not sure but the ones without the issue are the ones that have/had US carriers (but not all). This is due to the fact that on iOS 9 on A9 it would have too much frequency which is illegal in some countries, it's not the exact explanation but you get the idea. For instance my SE iOS 9 is unlocked but was Verizon and I was able to setup and it never deactivated (and I did the activation after the issue was known).

I owned the 6s for 5 years before I upgraded to an iPhone X and the reasons why i upgraded was the old design, small display and small RAM, apps used to reload very often when I multitask and scrolling through Safari used to crash and reload a lot on twitter. In fact I'm not noticing that much of a difference between the 6s and the X in terms of performance, probably should've upgraded to the Xs instead.

[@dybefapi8694]

@@RatbagTheCoward I searched the web and indeed, this device will receive this update. One of the reasons could be that an iPad has a bigger battery and this new OS could be more energy consuming. Moreover, the iPhone 6S has never had a good reputation in terms of battery. Secondly, your claim that there is no difference between iPadOS and iOS is unjustified. Both OS have similarities but there is a clear distinction between the two, and it will be even more so with iPadOS 16 which will offer, as example, a feature called Task Manager, as well as a computer-like window interface, which you absolutely don't have on an iPhone. So I suggest you update your point of view on this topic because it must be since iOS 10 that the two OS are not unified anymore.

With an iPhone 8 (256 GB) still running as my "daily driver" I am hesitant in getting one of the newer ones, I find those very chunky. Might go for an iPhone 12/13 mini one day hence it is said to be not as good on battery capacity.

Given the age of the phone, it would be best to avoid ios 15. Instead, use an older version of ios with antivirus or additional protection.

So there was something different about scrolling after all!! Before switching to Android, the last iOS I had used was iOS 6. I recently switched back to iOS but felt that the scrolling physics were different from the last time I used iOS 6. I like the new scrolling.

Glad to see Apple has also implemented it

@@Eddy_E. scrolling on Android is not laggy wtf. If you are using a flagship Android phone, scrolling is buttery smooth and has been since Android Lollipop.
