iPhone 6s: Customer gets Apple smartphone FIVE days early, reviews new smartphone

One lucky AT&T customer got an unexpected world exclusive with the Apple iPhone 6s

IT TURNS out you don't always have to queue outside the Apple Store to be first to get the new iPhone.

 

The first iPhone 6s orders are scheduled to start dropping through customers' letter-boxes at 8am on Friday.

But one lucky customer got her hands on the latest Apple smartphone some FIVE days before Apple retail stores open their doors to the hordes of faithful customers camped outside.

Adrienne Alpern, of San Diego, USA starting posting photographs of her Rose Gold iPhone 6s after it arrived unexpectedly last night.

Unsurprisingly, the Twitter user quickly became an online sensation – with users peppering her with questions about the latest Apple handset.

According to her tweets, Adrienne – dubbed @MoonshineDesign on Twitter – ordered her iPhone 6s through US mobile carrier, AT&T.

Thanks for the world exclusive

Twitter User

The US visual designer posted photographs of the Rose Gold iPhone in its packaging, and after she had unboxed it.

At the request of fellow Twitter users, she then posted images of the packaging, headphones, a photo with the new 12MP camera, shot some test 4K footage with the rear camera and ran a Geekbench test score.

"Thanks for the world exclusive," one Twitter user thanked @MoonshineDesign as she posted her images and video through the night.

In her first handful of Geekbench tests, the iPhone 6s appeard much faster than its predecessor.

Apple touted its latest smartphone's improved performance during the announcement, which it held earlier this month in San Francisco.

The iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus boast "performance once found only in desktop computers," according to the Cupertino company.

The new handsets also sport stronger glass, a new aluminium alloy case, dramatically-improved front and rear cameras and Apple's new 3D Touch technology.

3D Touch detects the amount of pressure applied to the display, allowing programs to add perceived levels of depth to software.

Gently press on an email in the Mail app to see a preview of the contents, push harder on the preview and the email will pop into a full-screen view.

The technology was first implemented in the Apple Watch, which recently received its first major software update.
