Apple’s iPhone 6 launch event is today and it will mark one of the biggest changes in tech giant’s smartphone strategy. Whether two big screen devices will help Apple regain control of the smartphone market remains to be seen, but there’s no doubt that expectations are high from today’s event. After all it’s not just the iPhone 6 that is expected, the world is likely to get a first glimpse at the iWatch as well.
In the past couple of months, rumours around the next generation Apple iPhone–which the press has named iPhone 6– are gaining more pace than ever. A lot more videos and images of the device are getting leaked. In fact, just a day ahead of the video we saw some live shots and four videos showing the Settings, Camera and Health apps. It also believed that Apple will include NFC-based payments system in upcoming iPhone 6.
A report by Feld & Volk also gave us a clear look of the device by putting together the iPhone 6 using parts and components and the completely assembled device that looked absolutely stunning, and in line with the leaks.
Another leak suggests that the iPhone 6 may feature haptic technology and some other talks about long-time rumoured sapphire glass display protection for the iPhone 6. With mere 24 hours for the event, let’s take a quick look at all we know about the iPhone 6.
Design
Leaks have suggested that Apple will be going for a more rounded body and the iPhone 6 will be even slimmer than the current-generation iPhone 5s flagship. Another leak that placed the iPhone 6 next to the Galaxy S5 hinted that the iPhone 6 could come with an iPad-like design. The picture also hints at rounded edges and the smooth brushed aluminium back of the iPhone. Apple has scratched out the capsule design of the current flash and has gone with a more traditional circular cutout.

The new leaked image, and the clearest so far, shows the iPhone 6 looks like the current generation of iPads, thanks to its rounded corners and edges. The image also shows iPad-like volume buttons and completely redesigned speaker holes at the bottom.
Another leak shows the front glass panels of the alleged 4.7-inch iPhone 6 model with thinner bezels and compares it to the iPhone 5s that has slightly broad bezels. The video also compares the single-hand experience with the iPhone 5s and the alleged 4.7-inch iPhone 6 model. It shows the models come with a curved display. Citing some sources related to the matter, the report further claims that the iPhone 6 models will feature a full-metal body.

Earlier this month, Taiwanese celebrity Jimmy Lin – who showed a pre-release iPhone 5 – revealed supposed images of the iPhone 6, and now yet another picture of the iPhone 6. He was soon followed by Sonny Dickson tweeting out the image showing both models. It was the first time we got a glimpse of the 5.5-inch variant. We also got a sneak peek into the leaked rear shells in multiple angles. Moreover, prolific apple tipster Sonny Dickson has also given a sneak peek of both models.
