One of the great new features about the iPhone 6s is improved camera functionality and performance across the board. Not only did Apple enhance the rear facing camera with a 12-megapixel sensor, the front facing camera was at long last upgraded with a 5 megapixel sensor, a significant improvement over the 1.2 megapixel sensor Apple had been using for years.

On the software side of the equation, Apple has been heavily touting ‘Live Photos,’ a feature which brings photos to life by capturing 1.5 seconds of video footage both before and after a photo is taken. As a result, users can subsequently use 3D Touch when scrolling through their camera roll to transform static photos into lively 3-second videos.

The most difficult decision that a modern console gamer has to make it when to upgrade to the new generation. I know, it’s not exactly a life-altering decision, but it’s typically not a cheap one, so some carefully considerations must be made ahead of time.

Although tens of millions have already made the leap, there are still plenty of gamers who are squeezing every last drop out of their PS3s and Xbox 360s, but it’s looking like the beginning of the end for the former generation.

Rather than further lowering the price of the Samsung Galaxy S6 or Galaxy Note 5, Samsung now says it’ll pay your phone installments through 2016. Unsurprisingly, you’ll get more money if you’re willing to ditch the iPhone in favor of a new Galaxy model.

Google is having a big event on Tuesday to unveil its two new Nexus phones.

I bought a pink iPhone 6s last week and was fortunate enough to get it right on launch day. The moment I took it out of the box on Friday, I had this deja vu feeling you get with each S generation — except for the new color, the design is similar, and nothing is changed. But that’s where most of the people trying the iPhone 6s after an iPhone 6 would be wrong. Nothing is changed design-wise — or at least the modifications aren’t perceivable to the naked eye — yet everything is different.

Apple was right on stage when it said that everything changes with iPhone 6s, even if that might not be immediately apparent to many users.

If there’s one thing Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P leaks haven’t really nail down yet, it’s pricing information. The general consensus is that the Nexus 5X will be the cheaper new Nexus 5, while the Nexus 6P will be an even better version of the Nexus 6, and thus it’ll be priced accordingly.

However, with a day to go until Google’s Android 6.0 Marshmallow event kicks off, there are reports detailing the cost and preorder plans for the devices.

The iPhone 6s is an absolute beast. With a blazing fast A9 processor and 2GB of RAM under the hood, not to mention Apple’s world-class integration of software and hardware, real world performance on the iPhone 6s has once again left competitors in the dust. Just a few days ago we highlighted how the iPhone 6s, in initial Geekbench 3 testing, absolutely destroyed the Galaxy S6 and other top Android handsets.

Now, in preliminary benchmark results compiled Joshua Ho of AnandTech, it’s clear that Apple’s new iPhones have set a new bar for performance across the smartphone industry.
