Wow...talk about a complete shut out for iPhone 6 Plus users.
FINALLY!! Don't really want to upgrade my iPad, but this, I feel, is worth upgrading for.
Still no multi-user account or "kid" mode though...sigh.
I'm sure iPhone 6s Plus users will be ok
Im sure its the RAM limitation, apps can barely run in background without refreshing.
Yes, as I said, I'm sure 6s users will be ok. New iPhone is bound to have more RAM this time.
Predicated that split screen would require minimum 2GB DRAM so iPad Air 2 only for now and future models.
I thought that too, but I guess slide-over is only when the other screen is darkened.
They need to hold something back for the new iPhone launch!
Who would split screen on an iPhone anyway? It would be small even on a 6 Plus.
I see no point in that whatsoever other than the fact it might save you 2 seconds or less to look at emails or something. Are you sure it's darkened? Maybe it's just not active but still open and visible.
I'm getting the air 3. No need to just get a small upgrade for iPad. I'm sure the 3 will have even more features as well. Love the multitasking features though. And the picture in picture is badass as well
Me too, although I predicted it also needed the third core in the A8X chip, so if the A9 in the iPhone 6s is also tri-core, then we'll know for sure.
can you actually open anything useful in the other side though? Like can i have safari open twice or netflix on one side and safari on the other?
