While Apple's next iPhone might still be far from hitting shelves, the speculation around it is endless. Now, an analyst has claimed that the Cupertino based company has finalised, or internally "locked down" much of the design of its next iPhone, believed to be dubbed iPhone 6.
Apple Insider cites analyst Timothy Arcuri from Cowen and Company, who says that Apple has finalised a 4.8-inch display for its alleged iPhone 6, in an attempt to counter the phablet competition in the global market.
Further, Arcuri, citing Apple's supply chain, has revealed that this year's iPhone, apart from hardware upgrades, will bring along key software innovations with the next major iOS platform release. Acuri has claimed that the alleged iPhone 6 will come with Wi-Fi (802.11ac), which will be an upgrade to the current 802.11n found on the iPhone 5s.
The analyst speculates that the Cupertino-based company will use features such as iBeacon, Touch ID and Passbook in the next alleged iPhone to push new services with mobile payments.
Acuri also expects that Apple, following its launch schedule for iPhone devices, will announce the alleged iPhone 6 in September.
Contradicting to the current report, a Chinese analyst recently claimed that Apple might launch an iPhone with 4.7-inch display at the WWDC event scheduled in June 2014, while a 5.7-inch variant would follow it soon after. According to the Chinese analyst, Apple would launch two iPhone models, much like the iPhone 5c and iPhone 5s announced last year; and this time, it has been believed they would be sporting different screen sizes.
The analyst also suggested that the Cupertino-based company would start trial-production of the alleged iPhone with a 4.7-inch display in February, and if things go Apple's way, the company would start mass-production of the 4.7-inch iPhone in May.
An earlier report had suggested that Apple has been considering use of alloys for its new iPhone, which was hinted at by a Liquidmetal patent filing.
