iPhone 6s, the first Apple smartphone equipped with more than 1 GB of RAM memory
According to information disclosed from sources with links among partners Apple from China, iPhone 6s It will be the first smartphone Apple equipped with more than 1 GB RAM. Use LPDDR4 chips should bring more consistent performance in terms of the games and iOS applications.
The use of LPDDR4 memory chips, being more expensive with 35% than ordinary memory LPDDR3, it was decided at the last moment, there are fears that traditional suppliers will not be able to keep up with the increased demand for this type of RAM. It seems that the iPhone 6s received the green wave for use this type of memory because the problem of sufficient stock supply has been solved. The LPDDR4 memory providers list are on the list of memory providers Hynix, Samsung and Micron-Elpida.
The LPDDR4 chips are twice as fast, compared to the RAM memory used by the current iPhone 6 model, while offering a low energy consumption. If we consider doubling the amount of RAM to 2 GB, we can expect that the autonomy of the iPhone 6S phone will not be affected by this change.
According to other rumors, the iPhone 6S phones could be integrated Force Touch, announced for devices Apple Watch. This function will allow compatible applications to measure the force when pressing the display, offering an additional parameter for interpreting Touch commands.
The introduction of the Force Touch support may need to replace the rigid shield used to protect the screen with a slightly deformable one, which will allow the force to be measured, respectively the integration of sensors suitable for this objective. Taking into account the complexity of the changes made to the iPhone 6S, it is very possible that Apple will maintain this function for the next important revision, iPhone 7.
