Apple iPhone 6s 3D Touch

Apple’s 3D Touch technology will allow the phone to tell the difference between light, medium, and hard taps – which will enable new dimensions to app and OS functionality. For example, within emails you will be able to hard press to preview emails. Addresses texted to you can be previewed by pressing. Then you may continue holding to enter full-screen.

 

Apple Live Photos

The internet has already dubbed the Apple Live Photos feature as “Harry Potter-like”. For those unfamiliar with the books and films, this means that all photos will become… well, moving. They can be tapped to view a 4 second moving video… but it’s not a video or gif? Okay.

Also new is a 12 megapixel iSight camera. Check out the detail and color in the sample below (which is a screenshot from the Apple event, not an actual iphone 6s photo… we know, but you get the picture). There will be a flash on the front camera as well, which will be bumped up to 5 megapixels.
