They will as they always do not mention how much RAM is in there because nobody cares anymore as long as everything works.
Yea except not everything works. Not when my 6 plus can't even keep 2 apps or more than 3 safari tabs in suspended state without constant refreshing
You say that as though animated wallpapers is the only new feature of the iPhone 6S.
I was gonna say. No 2GB of RAM, Force Touch, better camera's and faster chips.
Ah well. I'll look forward to the animated wallpapers then.
It's not that anyone doesn't care, it's just that they don't mention those type of numbers.
That's not exactly true... people dig through the SDKs trying to find changes all the time for unreleased hardware. All it takes is a code comment or new reference/api somewhere to "verify" a leak and suddenly Apple's secrets are out of the bag before anyone has the hardware.
Like Force Touch isn't going to be called Force Touch, someone found code and thinks it will be named Deep Press for the upcoming iPhones.
Internally (as in within an SDK) it can be called something other than by its commercialized (basically marketing) name.
Doubt it would be Deep Press. That would be like Touch ID being called Finger Pattern Identifier
RAM will be mention because one key feature that will be exclusive to these new phones is split screen multitasking like the iPad Air 2.
That doesn't mean that RAM will be mentioned, and that's assuming that that feature even comes to the iPhone to begin with.

I agree... They NEVER mention ram. Its more: The iPhone 6S is up to twice as fast as the last generation, sort of stuff.
Didn't they mention 2GB RAM for the iPad Air 2 on release or was that iFix It that did it for them after a tear down?
Sunday and close of September 9 it will be really surprising if a new beta is released today...
It could be preparing for a Monday GM release? Maybe a pre GM build or the GM build and 9.0 being released on the 9th. (Which would shock EVERYONE)
