Michal Marek Of course, when presenting iPhones, Apple cannot spew out all the information about its new phones on stage, and some additional information is revealed only in the last days and hours before sales of the new models begin. Important fragments are traditionally brought, for example, by experts from iFixit, who always take apart a new product and publish what is actually inside it.
With the iPhone 6S, the biggest design difference compared to the iPhone 6 is probably the size of the battery. It has a capacity of 1715 mAh, while last year's model was powered by a battery with a capacity of 1810 mAh. But this reduction has a simple explanation. The space under the battery is occupied by the new Taptic Engine, which, together with a special display layer, is the hardware background of the new 3D Touch function. X-ray from the workshop iFixit then he also shows the inside of this "motorcycle" and thus reveals the special oscillating mechanism hidden in the aluminum case.
The mentioned new display with the addition of the 3D Touch function is quite heavy. It weighs 60 grams and thus exceeds the weight of the display used in last year's iPhone by 15 grams. Most of those extra grams go to the new capacitive layer, which is located on the bottom of the display panel. Furthermore, the new iPhone 6S display is distinguished by cable reductions and a slightly different design of the LCD panel.
However, apart from the internals themselves, the fact that the body of the new iPhone is cast from a completely new Aluminum 7000 alloy, which is stronger than last year's, is also worth paying attention to. Affair "Bendgate" should not be repeated. After all, this is also proven by an already existing video on the YouTube channel fonefox, where the iPhone 6S Plus undergoes a bending test.

In the video, the main actor of the video, Christian, tries to bend the iPhone 6S Plus with all his strength, but he does not succeed at any cost. And if it manages to bend the iPhone at least a little, the phone will subsequently return to its correct shape on its own without damage.
The video blogger from FoneFox then takes his even stronger colleague to the test and when they both press on the phone (each from one side), the phone finally gives way a little and bends, although it continues to work without problems. However, it is extremely unlikely that such pressure would occur under normal circumstances. The difference in the strength of the iPhone 6 Plus and the iPhone 6S Plus is therefore huge, which is also shown in the video below. This shows that last year's model was relatively easy to bend. It was enough to use one's own strength and the bending happened in a few seconds.

So I'd say Apple won't have any *Gate this year since the greens and their DieselGate overtook him :-)
Just wait until Apple doesn't have too loud speakers on the green :)
Hi Kaspar!
What's the joke? Kaspar or a jester?
Scrotum - maybe no one can even call themselves that
Otherwise, I'll wait for the ip7
Sko's models are for the poor
Did they say at the Keynote when "it" will be available to order in countries other than the first wave of the chosen ones?
Toast? Scrotum?
Everyone is here!!
That's a bunch of stupid names
Unfortunately, they didn't say :-( But I reckon that the turn of October and November, if they didn't also push us out of the second wave...
