You mean Samsung is copying those iPhones which are just now catching up to the capabilities and speed of 2 year old Samsungs...apple fanboys, so silly ;)

REALLY?

Bench marks of the iPhone 6S:

Who needs octa-core CPUs and 4GB of RAM? iPhone 6s is the fastest phone on the planet
By Yoni Heisler—BGR (Boy Genius Report)—Sep 28, 2015

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.

Now seeing as how browsing the web is one of the more common smartphone activities, let’s start with a few of AnandTech’s web browsing benchmarks.
“Regardless of whether an OEM is optimizing specifically for these benchmarks,” Ho writes, “it’s hard to ignore just how well Apple has optimized Safari and the dual core Twister CPUs as they’ve effectively set new records for these benchmarks in mobile.”
With respect to graphics performance, the iPhone 6s is just as impressive, coming in second only to the Microsoft Surface Pro 3.
One slight blemish worth mentioning is that battery life on the iPhone 6s Plus is slightly lower than it was on the iPhone 6 Plus, a fact attributable to the 6s’ smaller battery.
All in all, Ho’s initial impressions from his preliminary round of testing are overwhelmingly positive. Make sure to hit the source link below for the full run down of all of AnandTech’s benchmark tests which are both extremely detailed and exhaustive.

iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus Preliminary Results

OK, that's enough of that. . .

And, still more:

Dual-core iPhone 6s obliterates Galaxy S6, Note 5 and other top Android phones in performance tests
By Chris Smith—BGR (Boy Genius Report)—Sep 23, 2015

The first iPhone 6s benchmarks have emerged from a lucky buyer who received her handset a few days before the official September 25th launch date. The Geekbench 3 tests showed the Apple’s new flagship is significantly faster than last year’s iPhone 6. Even more impressive is the fact that the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus have almost the same scores as this year’s Retina MacBook laptops, both in single-core and multi-core tests.
An iPhone 6s review further shows that the iPhone 6s handsets indeed have stellar performance, obliterating top competitors, including the Galaxy S6, Galaxy Note 5, and other flagship Android handsets from the competition.

Reviewing the iPhone 6s models, Apple blogger Jon Gruber used Geekbench 3 benchmark software to test them, obtaining the same scores. According to Gruber, the iPhone 6s got a 2500 in single-core tests and 4340 in multi-core tests – that’s 1.6x and 1.5x faster than the iPhone 6, respectively.
Gruber also noted that the iPhone 6s is in a class of its own, at least when it comes to single-core performance.
“In terms of single-core performance, there isn’t a single Android phone that beats the two-year-old iPhone 5S,” he said. “Android devices fare better in multi-core benchmarks, because they have more cores (some have eight, many have four — the iPhones 6S still have only two cores), but single-core performance is a better measure for the sort of things you can feel while using a device.”
“Apple is literally years ahead of the industry,” he added. “Even if you don’t agree that single-core performance is the more meaningful benchmark, you can’t deny that iPhone benchmarks don’t look anything like the benchmarks for high-end Android devices.”
Gruber posted the following image that lists Geekbench 3 single-core average scores for this year’s most popular Android devices, including smartphones and tablets. Notably absent, though, is the recently released Galaxy Note 5, but MobileSyrup‘s iPhone 6s review does list Geekbench 3 tests for the new Samsung phablet, and the Note 5 can’t even beat the iPhone 6 in single-core tests (second image below).

I could go on with test report after test report. . . all showing the iPhones blowing the Android phones, including all up-to-date Samsung phones away.

Android fanboys, so silly. . . when hoist on their own petards.

All the data....the data, the examples and the benchmarks.....ooooooh!

I just got an iPhone 6S + and from using it for two days, here’s a “benchmark”.

I’d like to get hold of that stupid ergonomics engineer/team that said “let’s move the button from the top to the right side so it can be used with the right thumb - much easier”...They stopped there. They left the “down volume” button directly across from it, and now to turn it off one has to make a conscious effort to reposition the fingers on the left away from the volume buttons.

This could have been fixed with a setup option to lock ALL the level functions, but apparently none of that whole team even used the phone enough to find out it’s a problem - they let you lock level on everything else but main level.(BTW, I Googled this, and it IS a problem many people have). I’d kick those idiots in the butt if I could.

Second, my other complaint is size and ability to hold it. I came from a 4S and with its rectangular box shape, it was easier to hold without a case. This phone HAS to have some sort of case. Right now I have the thing in the original box until the case I ordered comes.

Functionality? It has some new bells and whistles, but I’m not that impressed over a 4S, frankly.
