Faster LTE.
Faster Wi‑Fi.iPhone 6s features LTE Advanced with speeds up to twice as fast as the previous generation.* It supports more LTE bands than any other smartphone. And when you’re connected to Wi-Fi, iPhone 6s lets you do things like browse the web and download apps at speeds up to twice as fast, too."
Lies. All lies...

May 13, 2016 11:08 PMby H18limon,Im also having problems with wifi connection at home. theres 4 different iPhones 3 iPhone6 and 1 iPhone 5s my iPhone (6) is the only one that drops wifi and Bluetooth. If im next to the router i have full bars as soon as I step away 3 ft it starts decreasing by 2 bars. At 6 feet away I have no wifi connection. This is killing all my data and I'm really annoyed. I tried resetting network connections, iCloud back up, resetting the phone i went to Apple Store and they said I would have to buy a new phone or repair it. I really don't want to get a 6s when we're a few months away from iphone7. Same thing happens with my bluetooh. I have it connected to my beats by Dre and it gets disconnected 3 feet away with nothing in between phone and headphones. I do the same with same headphones but connected to another iPhone and connection is perfect. Idk what to do anymore. Any suggestions. Please help

Jul 2, 2016 4:41 PMby Lesliemak,Apple tech just helped me fix this nagging problem of my iPhone 6S dropping my home wifi after a few minutes by going to Settings>Cellular>Wifi Assist and turning OFF Wifi Assist. We also reset the network settings by going to Settings> General> Reset> Reset>Reset Network Settings and clicking on Reset Network Settings in Red at bottom screen, typing in my password for my home router and router extender. Now problem all solved!

Very frustrating and annoying this and no-one seems to know the solution. Not even the people from Apple!
Sad really.

Aug 21, 2016 12:28 AMby Hvs94,I've been having constant dropping wifi and inaccurate gps signal for a few months now on my iPhone 6. I had it reset 3 times, nothing seemed to improve it. It was an intermittent problem sometimes it worked fine for a few hours other times it didn't work all day. I took it into Apple yesterday and they were amazing. My phone is not under warranty with them, I purchased it from eBay second hand, however I was told because of consumer law (this may only apply in the uk) for the first 2 years the company who sold the phone (in my case it was originally purchased from an Apple Store) have to replace any products with faulty softwear issues free of charge and was given a new phone there and then.
I Know this isn't a conventional solution but if your phone is less than two years old I recommend you looking into this with whoever you purchased your phone from. I'd never heard of this law myself and it was only the Apple employee who told me about it meaning I finally now after 3 months have a working phone again!
