In your opinion, which is better overall? My wife is almost due for an upgrade and she wants an iPhone. Is the 6s really much better than the 6? MTN has a sweat deal on the 64 GB iPhone 6 for R450, which is more in my budget, but the iPhone 6s 64 GB is still R600. I know it has a better camera and processer, but is it really worth an extra R150 each month. She wants an iPhone mainly for its camera

If you can afford it, yes, it's much better. It's the phone the 6 should have been.

If money's tight, and that extra monthly expenditure really would count then go for the 6 as it's still a good phone coming from a 5 or 5s, though I would be inclined to buy an iPhone SE if I couldn't afford the 6s...

My wife uses my old 6. I have to say when I play with it I hardly feel a difference. It runs iOS 9 smoothly. I'm unsure what will happen when iOS 10 launches. I have a feeling the 6 might struggle so the 6s is definitely more future proof.

*not sure if it's called a Taptic Engine in the phone or only the watch.

They did put the taptic engine in the 6s. Instantly noticed it when I got mine. It's dead silent and very powerfull :p

I don't think I'd spend the extra money on the 6S. If you want the new internals, get the SE

Congrats, impressive service from MTN

Which version IOS came pre installed on your new phone?

If I recall correctly it was 9.2.1
Got the Istore to upgrade to the latest so I can restore my backup from my Mac.

^ the old logo was starting to look dated but I don't know... logo design has regressed so much into generic shapes and gradients that anyone could recreate in photoshop.

Good find, seems to work really well.

Though it doesn't effect me, there isn't a UK VPN for people who might want BBC iPlayer or other UK streaming services. I'll keep a free TunnelBear account for when I'm travelling.

I noticed, and that is something that I most definitely need to listen to the Scottish football on a Saturday :)

Hopefully they'll have one soon so I'll keep my unlimited Tunnellbear for now.

Tweet them @opera with the hashtag #OperaVPN and ask them to include a UK server, if enough people do so we might get one included.
