iPhone 6s Plus Touch ID Much Quicker Than iPhone 6 Plus in New Hands-On VideoWith the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus, one well-known hardware feature got a substantial upgrade: Touch ID. Apple improved the Touch ID sensor, allowing it to recognize fingerprints faster than it could previously. We went hands-on with the brand new iPhone 6s Plus and compared its improved Touch ID sensor to the one in the iPhone 6 Plus.

Comparatively, the speed of the 6 Plus' Touch ID makes it seem like a two-step feature, first waking up the display and then taking a user to the Home Screen.
On
first impression, some users think the new Touch ID is too fast, however.
Reddit user
MasterofLuiz notes that it's so fast it affects how he usually uses his phone.
I can't even click the home button to check the clock without it automatically unlocking the phone. It's crazy
MacRumors forum member
mykaluk has attempted to best the speed of the new Touch ID, attempting to tap the Home Button so quickly that it doesn't read his fingerprint. However, he notes that the Touch ID is able to read the fingerprint every time.
