Apple Discussion Thread - iPad Air 2, iMac 5K Retina, OS X 10.10 out

They should reduce the 5s and scrap the 5c, so that if one wants to stick with the smaller screen they can get a premium iPhone... Mess Apple.

 

I know, it is a mess

 

I think they want the 5c to be a brand of "cheaper" iPhones which aren't actually cheaper

 

They may get rebranded to the 6c, but we will have to wait and see.

A video showcasing what is claimed to be the rear shell of the 5.5-inch iPhone 6 was published today by Nowhereelse.fr. While component leaks have been abundant for the 4.7-inch version, this is one of only a few leaks for the 5.5-inch iPhone, which is rumored to be entering production in September. The site's sources also claim Apple has selected "iPhone Air" as the name for this larger iPhone version.

 

The metal frame in this latest leak is similar in appearance to a rear shell that appeared last month. Both shells have thick antenna breaks, a rounded opening for an updated True Tone flash, a cutout for the Apple logo, a space for elongated volume buttons and a side mounted power button.

Apple is expected to unveil the iPhone 6 at an event scheduled for September 9th at the Flint Center for the Performing Arts in Cupertino, California. While it most certainly is an iPhone event, it is not known whether the company will announce both the 4.7-inch and the 5.5-inch models at this time.

If Apple introduces the 5.5-inch model on September 9th, the company may stagger the retail sales of the two phones, offering the 4.7-inch model sometime in September and waiting to ship the 5.5-inch version until the end of the year due to production issues.

Size-wise it looks the same as the One PlusOne, I wish they could shrink the bezels to make it more compact, kind of like the LG G3.

I have the 5s and love it! When i got the 5s, I got a deal that I can upgrade in a year's time without an early upgrade fee. So I'll decide once apple announces it, if its worth me getting tbh.

The title iPhone Air just makes no sense to me what so ever. 

 

I'm gonna get a 4.7inch version, because I want it nOWWWW

Mostly future-proofing so when 5.5" becomes standard for most Android/WP flagships, consumers will have the Apple route too. Also trying to snatch some Android/WP users who are using 5.5" screens.

I'll be probably getting one because I still have an iPhone 4.

I wonder if they'll continue the C line. Maybe they'll only release the C devices with the S devices.

So it's just bigger than the previous one, I ain't talkin' 'bout Eiffels.

What company are you with?

I think they should have adapted to a completely new design because the traditional look widened isn't very intimidating.

I honestly had no idea that iPhones are so popular in the US, literally nobody I know has one here, 90% has a Samsung phone.

Not sure why I posted this, anyway just ignore me

Except from reducing the bezels there's not much they can change.

They have to let the light in.

- ok sir, here is your iPhone, it is 800$.

- Thank you!

- Would you like a bag to take it? It costs 1$

- WTF? 1$? Are you crazy? That's too expensive for a bag!!

- It has an apple printed on it!

- Give me 10.

[soundwave 193]

I hope that both sizes get equally good features because I don't want a huge phone
