iPhone 6S could get the Apple Watch's best feature

Force Touch and the Taptic engine that is found in the Apple Watch and on certain Macbook Pro models, could come to Apple's upcoming iPhone refreshes; the iPhone 6S according to a new report by 9to5Mac.

How Force Touch works is by adding pressure sensitivity into the Multi-Touch panel in the display. When a user uses enough force an action can be triggered. Such as fast forwarding video on a mac and unlocking extra options on the Apple Watch. The Taptic Engine is Apple's version of haptic feedback. If the rumor is true, and Force Touch comes to the iPhone, it could greatly improve the user experience. Such as pressure sensitivity for drawing applications, and many other uses.

We could see more information about the new report at WWDC in a couple of weeks, but we will most likely have to wait until Apple releases the 6S to get official information when it comes out this fall.
