iPhone 6S and 6S Plus Hit the Market Today with iOS 9.0.1 Update Now Available

The much anticipated iPhone 6S, new from Apple’s stable, and its larger counterpart, the iPhone 6S Plus, go up for sale today. Industry analysts are making optimistic projections over the initial sales figures, contemplating a potential upper hand for the iPhone 6S and 6S Plus over the iPhone 6’s sales during its launch weekend. The worldwide excitement for these new handheld marvels is palpable as lines start to form outside Apple stores across the globe. Experts speculate about a whooping sale of 14 million units this weekend alone.

In addition to the arrival of these sleek powerhouses, Apple also introduces the latest iOS 9.0.1 update. Previous versions of iOS 9 were met with reports of apps crashing and other software malfunctions leading to a hit on user experience. As Apple enthusiasts flock to secure their new iPhones, they can simultaneously breathe a sigh of relief to learn the tech giant has actively addressed these issues, releasing a more streamlined iOS 9.0.1 version to alleviate the problematic glitches.

For Apple-aficionados residing in Nigeria and elsewhere in Africa, these shiny new devices are not beyond reach. The iPhone 6S starts at $199 (approximately 36,000 Naira) while the 6S Plus is being offered at $299 (about 59,000 Naira). However, these prices are viable for users keen on contractual acquisition, a prevalent practice in highly developed economies. Without a contract, the iPhone 6S is expected to fetch around 130,000 Naira in Nigeria. As the competition rages on in the smartphone arena, Apple’s iPhone 6S and 6S Plus stand as robust contenders directly facing Samsung’s latest offering.
