I own my 6S since March and have been experimenting with plates. R1 works as long as pull my skin taut and as long as I shave every day. 6S R1 is the only razor I have had where cuts are impossible.
I typically do not shave on weekends and on rare occasions skip a week. For 1-day stubble, I prefer R2 - very comfortable and quick. Still haven't found out whether R3 or R4 is best for 3+ day stubble, but I definitely feel R5 too much.
