Hi, I'm Leander Caney, editor and publisher of Cult of Mac.com, and this is the iPhone
0:05
6S edition of Caney's Corner. I've been waiting all day for this
0:15
All day? Three weeks? What am I saying? But the last 24 hours has been a click-fest of reload at UPS to try and find out where
0:22
this thing is. Of course, it's manly and specific. Out for delivery. And I have no idea when it's going to show up
0:29
I just intercepted the UPS guy and here it is. So as everyone knows, this is iPhone 6S-mas when everybody gets their new goodies
0:37
This one, you know, at first blush I was a little bit, you know, it's not quite as exciting
0:41
as maybe the 4 was when you stepped up from the 3GS or the 5 when you were coming from
0:47
the 4. This being an S upgrade, you know, is it going to be worth the wait
0:53
Let's open her up. 6S-mas. Wow, look at that. Sleek packaging as usual
1:04
Everything perfect from Johnny Ive. I wonder how long he's sweated over this
1:08
This is the first unboxing video that we've ever done here at Cult of Mac and in fact
1:12
I've never even actually watched an unboxing video, at least not at real speed
1:17
So, forgive my amateurishness. There you go, right in front of the camera
1:25
Wow, look at that. Very, very slick. Here it is, in all its glory
1:32
Wow, it's got that new iPhone smell. These things, you know, they engineer it
1:50
I know that they've engineered it for this movement here. This is carefully calibrated in the design lab at Apple so that it doesn't just drop out
2:01
It slides out gently. Look at that. Isn't that a piece of amazing paper engineering
2:07
I could do this all day. Okay, here it is. The 6S
2:14
Well, you know, it's supposed to be chubbier and heavier, but I don't feel it's..
2:19
I can't, you know, you can't tell. I guess if I weighed it on a scale, I could
2:24
Maybe it's a bit thicker. It definitely feels sturdy. I mean, this thing feels solid
2:29
It's not flimsy at all. I'm not going to do a bend test
2:37
So I'm going to go and set this thing up and play around with it and get my greasy fingerprints all over it
2:42
Maybe I'll drop it and scratch it and maybe crack the screen. We'll be back next week to tell you what we think of it
