Latest iteration of Apple versus Samsung

Singapore

OVER the weekend, the iPhone 6s went on sale in selected markets, including Singapore. The first week's sales figure will be awaited for with interest as it is a good benchmark to see if the latest iteration of the iPhone is even more popular than the previous one. Going by historical trends, that will most likely be the case.

The iPhone 6s, especially the bigger 5.5 inch version, is going head-to-head with its Korean rival, Samsung's Galaxy Note 5 that hit the stores a few weeks ago. The Note 5 will have some help from its sibling, the Galaxy S6 Edge+ which also comes with the same 5.7 inch screen as the Note 5.
