iOS 9.3.1 vs iOS 9.2.1: Performance test and battery life

Every time Apple releases a new version of iOS, either beta or final version, the guys at iAppleBytes are dedicated to doing different tests with different devices to see if the new versions that Apple releases or is testing in beta phase, improve overall device performance, including battery, ignition time, performance, process speed ...

To do this, they usually always do the tests on the same devices, that is, they record a video with the different tests they undergo on the devices and later update them to perform the same with the latest version that Apple has launched on the market, already be it beta version or final version. But this time they have used two new iPhone 6s to put them through performance tests.

According to the tests they have subjected to the iPhone 6s with iOS 9.2.1 and iOS 9.3.1 the iPhone with this latest version is slightly faster. To perform the measurements, both devices have used the Geekbench 3 application and as we can see in the video, the results are somewhat higher with iOS 9.3.1 than with iOS 9.2.1. If we talk about the battery life, we can check how the version of iOS 9.2.1 offers us slightly more duration compared to iOS 9.3.1 It shuts down just a few seconds before the device with the previous version of iOS.

The first updates that Apple releases of each new operating system for iOS-based devices, always se focus on improving the performance of older devices in addition to solving errors, while subsequent updates, as in the case of iOS 9.2 and 9.3, focus on adding new functionalities such as the Night Shift function in the case of iOS 9.3, to give an example of the new features that have arrived. with this update.
