I often dread the odd years for Apple launches - the iPhone 3GS, 4S and 5S have all been rather dull compared to the phones that sat either side of them.
That's because there's usually very little difference in the "S" models from their predecessors, thus making it hard to get excited.
This time around it's a little different: the iPhone 6S is both a great upgrade from those'stuck' on a 5S, and a decent phone in its own right. If you're ready for an upgrade from the old design and are desperate to stick with Apple then this is a great handset to go for.
Design
The same stick that some use to beat iPhone fans still exists: yes, visually this is almost identical to last year's redesigned iPhone 6, with the same ceramic metal feel and slightly protruding camera that means you can place it side by side with the iPhone 6 and not really notice the difference
3D Touch but old screen
Now onto the biggest change for the iPhone 6S, 3D Touch. This changes everything for Apple users, and while it's not enough of a reason to upgrade from the 6, it's a pretty nifty trick that again promises to make current iPhone 5S owners feel like they're getting a real upgrade with their new phone.
Camera
The expected upgrade from the iPhone 6's camera has arrived: the iPhone 6S has a 12MP snapper and it looks like it'll deliver in spades. The need to jump in megapixels was rarely warranted for a brand beyond the need to impress consumers with higher numbers, but this year things are starting to jump forward.
