IPHONE 6
IPHONE 6
The new iPhone could be one of the most pivotal devices in the Cupertino brand's history - with the the iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C simple updates to previous models, there's a lot of pressure heaped on the iPhone 6. One thing is for sure, with the Samsung Galaxy S5 and Sony Xperia Z2 launched (plus HTC One M8 review now out in wild showing a truly stunning phone), Apple will need to be on its game with the new handset - and many believe a bigger screen is simply a must. The iPhone 6 release date will be in 2014, although exactly when that will be in the year is still a little unclear. Here's what we think is most likely to happen: at WWDC in June this year we'll see the obvious release of iOS 8, but also a larger-screened iPhablet as Apple looks to bring itself to the fore in Asian markets and rivalling the likes of the Galaxy Note 3. After that, Apple will launch the iPhone 6 in September, along with the iWatch and the first view of iOS 8, to allow it to both bring a new product to market as well as keeping its schedule safe. Suggestions of both sizes arriving September could also hold water - but only if Apple keeps both products under the iPhone name. If if splits the larger device under a new name (we can't see 'iPhad' being a thing) then a June and September launch could make sense. According to Business Insider, of the many iPhone 6 prototypes Apple has made, one has a giant Retina+ IGZO display and a "new form factor with no home button. Gesture control is also possibly included." It will surely include Apple's new Touch ID finger print tech. The Retina+ Sharp IGZO display would have a 1080p Full HD resolution. The power button will be moved to the side of the phone to make it easier for one-handed use. The power button on top of the phone would make it too hard to use. Apple may include a near field communications chip (NFC), which we doubt happens. Apple has never had NFC. One more detail: It's getting an A8 chip, which is a bump from the previous generation's processor.
