  • Apple iPhone 6 Malaysia Release Date & Specs

    Apple iPhone 6 Malaysia Release Date & Specs

    Apple's upcoming Apple iPhone 6 still has yet to be announced but the rumours are already swirling in the rumour mill. This includes rumours that the iPhone 6 will have a 4.7-inch edge to edge screen, a home button physically integrated into the display (meaning it wouldn't be a separate button) and have an organic radical battery that has a high energy density and a recharging time of nearly 30 seconds. This battery will feature higher power, smaller size and be more environment friendly.

  • Rumours: Apple 2014 roadmap outlines 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch iPhone and dual-size iWatch?

    Rumours: Apple 2014 roadmap outlines 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch iPhone and dual-size iWatch?

    A roadmap stating when we might see Apple's upcoming products has appeared from KGI Research. Granted, it isn't a leaked semi-official roadmap from Apple but it does come from a source that has generally been accurate when it comes to predicting what Apple will do. The roadmap reveals that Apple may come out with a 4.7-inch Apple iPhone 6 in Q3 of 2014 while a 5.5-inch Apple iPhone will come during Q4 of 2014. Before that, the analysts go on to predict that the Apple iWatch smartwatch could be coming before the iPhone but still in Q3 of 2014. No news yet on pricing or Malaysia release dates but do remember that this is very much a rumour still, so do take it with a good pinch of salt.

  • Rumours: Apple iPhone 6 schematics and sketches leaked?

    Rumours: Apple iPhone 6 schematics and sketches leaked?

    The rumour mill continues on as more details about the Apple iPhone 6 crop up, this time in the form of schematics, sketches and even some renders from said sketch. The schematics in particular seem to confirm a 4.7-inch version and a 5.7-inch version, right down to the exact measurements. The 4.7-inch version will have 137 x 66 x 7mm measurements while the 5.7-inch version will go for 157 x 77 x 6.7mm. Apart from the schematics, sketches of the Apple iPhone 6 have also appeared, which designer Martin Hajek promptly turned into renders. None of the images, be it the schematics or sketches have been confirmed though so do take this with a good piece of salt. No news on Malaysia release dates or pricing as well but these are still very early days so stay tuned for more updates.

  • Apple iPhone 6 (iPhone Air) concept video seems very close

    Apple iPhone 6 (iPhone Air) concept video seems very close

    You know how people predict all sorts of radical changes to the next Apple iPhone and Apple almost always deadpans them by just adding on a little bit here and a little bit there to the overall design. Well, Sam Beckett here is a designer who seems to be following that Apple spirit to the letter as he has come up with an Apple iPhone 6 or iPhone Air concept video which looks and sounds very close to how Apple would do it. Tech specs and features listed in the video include a 4.7-inch sapphire crystal display with full HD 1080p resolution, a chassis which is 7mm thin and a design that is just 8% larger than the current Apple iPhone 5S. A 10MP OIS camera is the only tech spec which seems far fetched in this case, but you can check out the video for yourself in this article.

  • Rumours: Apple iPhone 6 coming with 8MP rear camera and f/2.0 aperture

    Rumours: Apple iPhone 6 coming with 8MP rear camera and f/2.0 aperture

    A fairly realistic rumour has cropped up about the Apple iPhone 6, which should be announced in a couple more months which say that Apple will probably keep the 8MP rear camera it already has but change the sensor aperture to f/2.0. Previously the camera sensor on the Apple iPhone 5S was set at f/2.2 while the Apple iPhone 5 had an f/2.4 aperture. The change for the Apple iPhone 5S resulted in more light coming in to the sensor and improving low light shots. A change to f/2.0 aperture would mean even better low-light performance. Other rumours indicate that the camera would have a 6p sapphire lens with the CMOS sensor expected to be manufactured by Sony. This rumour certainly sounds like something Apple would do, despite so many users asking for a 13MP rear camera upgrade. However, since it is a rumour still, do remember to take it with a good grain of salt, as a rumour is still a rumour until proven.

  • Larger 5.5-inch and 4.7-inch Apple iPhone 6 rendered in this concept video

    Based on current reports and rumours, Apple could be making or looking into a larger screen size for the Apple iPhone 6. These rumours point towards a 4.7-inch display with 1080 x 1920 pixel resolution and a 5.5-inch display with 1280 x 2272 pixel resolution. While there aren't any other tech specs, the displays will probably be made using IGZO technology which has better colours and energy efficiency. Based on these reports, the Concepts iPhone team of Enrico Penello and Ran Avni has come up with a concept video looking at how a larger screen could appear with the Apple iPhone 6. While the main design remains the same, the screen size is much larger and could offer Apple more opportunities in the larger screen smartphone market. However, Apple are also more likely to retain the 4-inch standard display form factor rather than replace it. Check out the video in the article for yourself.

  • Rumours: Apple iPhone 6 tech specs leaked - 10MP+ f/1.8 aperture camera + interchangeable resin lens

    Rumours: Apple iPhone 6 tech specs leaked - 10MP+ f/1.8 aperture camera + interchangeable resin lens

    While we think it is still a bit premature to speculate on Apple iPhone 6 tech specs, this hasn't stopped the Apple iPhone 6 rumours from coming. This batch of rumours comes from an online retailer saying that it was from checking out Apple's supply chain. These tech specs and features include a 10MP+ camera with f/1.8 aperture. The rumour also says that the camera will have interchangeable resin lenses which were not only covered in a recent Apple iPhone patent but also actually exist already in the form of ARTON resin lenses. It seems plausible that we could see the interchangeable resin lenses then, but it seems unlikely that they'll just offer a 10MP camera as the next model after 8MP camera sensors tend to be 13MP and above. That being said, take this rumour with a good amount of salt as Apple tends to be very conservative when it comes to hardware upgrades.

  • Rumours: Wall Street analyst says Apple iPhone 6 will use 4.8-inch screen

    Rumours: Wall Street analyst says Apple iPhone 6 will use 4.8-inch screen

    Amidst rumours that Apple is testing 4.7-inch and larger screens for the Apple iPhone 6, one Wall Street analyst thinks Apple have finally made a decision. According to said analyst, Timothy Arcuri, Apple will make the Apple iPhone 6 with a 4.8-inch screen. He says he reached this conclusion based on Apple's supply chain. This matches with other rumours which said that the iPhone 6 would indeed go for a larger screen but not go as big as 5 inches. Arcuri goes on to say that the iPhone 6 will offer tech specs that include the latest WiFi which is 802.11ac. While the operating system will still likely be iOS 7, the software will be updated to include integration with iBeacon, Passbook and more TouchID. He also expects more 64-bit features asides from the TouchID fingerprint scanner. These analysts predict the Apple iPhone 6 coming in June with a possible 13-inch Apple iPad expected in late 2014.

  • Rumours: Apple iPhone phablet coming in May 2014?

    Rumours: Apple iPhone phablet coming in May 2014?

    The giant rumour mill continues, this time with a rumour about the next Apple iPhone, which many are saying could be coming in 4.7-inches or going phablet-sized with a 5.7-inch display. Recent reports have come up saying that Apple may announce these new iPhone models in May 2014 with a Malaysia release date expected later in the year (probably Q3). Other tech specs and features that may come with the new models include rumours that they will be using the same A7 processor in the Apple iPhone 5S but no news if these processors will be tweaked or overclocked or just the same old 1.3GHz. Other rumours indicate that these larger sized Apple phones could be a completely new range rather than the next version of the Apple iPhone, which would be iPhone 6. As always, do take this rumour with a pinch of salt, as the jump in display size is rather large for Apple, who are fairly conservative when it comes to a design that isn't broken.

  • Rumours: Apple iPhone 6 and 12.9-inch iPad coming in May 2014 and October 2013

    Rumours: Apple iPhone 6 and 12.9-inch iPad coming in May 2014 and October 2013

    While we've yet to hear any concrete reports on the rumoured Apple iPhone 6 and possible 12.9-inch Apple iPad, rumours about the release date have surfaced quite regularly. Just like before, the latest release date rumours come from the supply chain or the manufacturers making the parts of these upcoming Apple devices. According to these sources, the Apple iPhone 6 could be coming in May 2014 with tech specs that include a 20nm 64-bit processor, beating the previous 28nm fabrication process of the Apple A7 processor. No news on naming for the processor yet, but it could just as well be an A7X or overclocked version of the previous processor. Others are saying the new iPhone could also bump the screen size up to 4.7-inches or 5.5-inches but these larger sized models are rumoured for Q3 of 2014. The supposedly larger 12.9-inch display Apple iPad version supposedly known as the iPad Pro may be released in October 2014 and is headed for select business and educational markets. As always do take this rumour with a pinch of salt.
