Holds Up Great Even In 2021. Of Course The Is Lag Sometimes (Especially When The Battery Is Low Or Low Power Mode Is On) But Performance Wise It's WAY Better Than ANY Android Phone Out There. And It's FULLY Up To Date On IOS 15.0.2 (Os Of Me Typing This) But The Battery Life Is....Not Good. It was Never Good To Begin With. When It Came Out On IOS 9 The Battery Lasted Around 6 Hours. But On IOS 15 (With An APPLE Replaced Battery) I Only Get Around 3 Hours Of Usage. (Light To Moderate Usage) The Build Quality Is Honestly Pretty Good! The Back Is Made Out Of A Stronger Type Of Aluminium To Prevent Bending (AHEM bendgate...) The Front Camera Is Actually Pretty Good! Apple Still Uses A 12MP Camera On Their Newest iPhones And The 6s Isn't Any Different! It Has A 12MP Camera That Can Record At 4k With EIS (Electronic Image Stabilization) But The 6s Plus Comes With OIS (Optical Image Stabilization) . And The Display Is Still GREAT Even Today. The 2020 SE Uses The Same Screen. And Also 3D Touch. OH BOY IS IT FUN TO PLAY WITH! It's SUPER Satisfying To Play With! And It Also Has A 1st Gen Taptic Engine That Can Make Little Clicks And Can Make SUPER Strong Vibrations While Being VERY Quite At The Same Time!
