iFixYouri will have a vendor booth set up at the 2016 Honda Classic Golf Tournament from February 24th until Sunday, February 28 at the PGA National Resort & Spa in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. So if you are out enjoying the golf tournament and resort, stop by and say hello! If you have a question about smartphone, tablet or computer repair, we’d love to help you out.

We will be handing out some cool (and free) iFixYouri schwag as well as doing on-site smartphone repairs.

From water-damage or shattered displays to complex technical issues, iFixYouri is your fast, affordable, reliable repair solution.

This is a question that many people are starting to ask.

The short answer is, not exactly.

To better answer this, we went ahead and ran a quick test. Like other videos you may see, we submerged it in water for about 1 min 58 seconds. The phone seemed to work fairly well after we pulled it out of the sink, with the exception of the microphone and the loudspeaker.

We wanted to find out what exactly is making this phone hold up so much better than other generations when submerged in water.

The simple answer is a thin piece of adhesive that is factory applied between the glass, LCD assembly, and back housing that effectively seals the top part of the phone and makes it somewhat impermeable, but not completely. This adhesive is not found in any other generation/model iPhone. It is similar to the Apple Watch, where the glass is sealed with a strong adhesive, which prevents water from penetrating the internals of the device.

When we cracked it open, we found some moisture by the ear speaker, on the rear camera, and in the charging port. But it was significantly less than what would have been found in a previous generation phone under the same circumstances.

While we don’t recommend that you take this phone swimming or take a shower with it, we will say it is a lot less likely you’ll suffer water damage should you spill a drink or drop your phone in the sink. Are the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus waterproof? Probably not, but definitely water-resistant.

Should you have any questions regarding liquid damage or devices in general, please feel free to contact us at 888-494-4349 or email us at [email protected]. iFixYouri carries a full range of iPhone repair services as well as iPad services from cracked screens to water damage and more.

The iPhone 6S is here, so we decided to do a boot-up time comparison across several generations of iPhones (6S, 6, 5S, 5, 4 and 3GS). The method was as follows:

• Power off all phones.
• Simultaneously start a digital timer at the same time (manually) as pressing the power up button.
• Compare the boot up times

Obviously when the human element is involved in timing, there is a small degree of error. Despite that, and since the results are not that close, the results are pretty interesting and surprising.

1. iPhone 6S – 20.99s
2. iPhone 6 – 22.31s
3. iPhone 4 – 26.83s
4. iPhone 5S – 30.11s
5. iPhone 3GS – 30.73s
6. iPhone 5 – 34.16s

Not surprisingly, the iPhone 6S, with its high powered custom-designed 64-bit A9 chip, took first place. This chip claims a performance level once found only in desktop computers, up to 70 percent faster CPU performance, and up to 90 percent faster GPU performance, according to the Apple website. The iPhone 4 had a good showing, coming in third. Also of note is the last place finish of the iPhone 5.

Do you notice your iPhone 6S being faster (or slower) than previous generation iPhones? We’ve heard from many people that they felt like iOS 8 was a bit faster than iOS 9. Now that iOS 10 is out, as well as the iPhone 7, maybe people will have more to say about their iPhone speed. Let us know in the comments. If your phone is slow and beyond saving, iFixYouri offers cash for used phones through our buy-back program. We also offer a full range of iPhone Repair Services.

For this iPhone 6s Wifi Speed Comparison Test we pitted the brand new iPhone 6s against the 6, 5s, 5, 4s. The Ookla SpeedTest app was used on WiFi.

Here are the results, showing average download and upload rates in Mbps.

What do you think? Scientific or worthless? What have you found about the Ookla speedtest app? What other speed testing have you tried?
