Hahha - iPhone 6 Is Coming in August

Is Apple engineering its next version iPhone 6 to have a beach body?

It had much better be, if recent reports verify true: According to a report in Taiwan's Economic Daily News, the supposed "iPhone 6" will come out in August, a month or more earlier than many Apple watchers had actually anticipated.

The last three iPhones-- the iPhone 5s, the iPhone 5, and the iPhone 4s-- were all launched in either September or October. Credible Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has actually forecast a September release date for the iPhone 6; news sources like Reuters and Nikkei both published reports pegging the iPhone 6 for a fall release.

If the release date rumor comes true, Apple might be trying to stem the stagnation in iPhone sales that occurs every summertime. Smartphone shoppers have actually become conditioned to Apple's yearly cycle; typically, iPhone sales crater in the summertime as everyone awaits the more recent design, a fact that Apple constantly explains in its quarterly results calls each summer's end.

That behavior, in addition to stiffer competitors and increased release cycles from rivals like Samsung, may trigger Apple to speed up the release of the iPhone 6 a bit.

The Economic Daily Information likewise states that the display on the iPhone 6 will enhance to 4.7 inches on the diagonal, which an even larger iPhone, with a 5.5-inch screen, will follow in September.

The part about 2 new iPhones 6 coming this year-- one with a 4.7 inch screen, and one "phablet"-sized iPhone later on, has been previously reported. The iPhone 5s and iPhone 5 function 4.0-inch displays, while contending phones like the Galaxy S5 and Galaxy Note 3 had bigger displays that cross the 5-inch limit. Those phones with larger screens have shown popular with shoppers, particularly in Asia. In order to compete with Samsung, Huawei, and others in the huge Oriental market, Apple has to bring out a larger screen for its iPhone. And, according to a lot of reports we've seen, that's specifically what's willing to happen.

The August release date rumor, on the other hand, could be baloney. Taiwan's Economic Daily Information is a respectable newspaper, though it has no history of forecasting Apple reports-- aside from a recent prediction that Apple would launch its so-called "iWatch" later on this year. That lack of track record makes it difficult to examine the probability of this report coming true.

For now, I 'd state that September is still more most likely for the iPhone 6. Up until another established source of Apple rumors-- the Wall Street Journal, Reuters, Ming-Chi Kuo, The New York Times-- signs up with the Economic Daily News in reporting that the iPhone's release date has been risen into summer season, I'll be working on the assumption that we'll be seeing the brand-new iPhone in the fall.
