To find out, the intrepid host of EverythingApplePro built a wooden holder and placed into it eight phones, including three iPhone 6 Pluses, two iPhone 6s, some smaller iPhones, one iPhone clone and a Samsung Galaxy S6 at the very end for good measure. But having a sapphire glass iPhone 6s variant (akin to being able to opt for a sapphire glass version of the Apple Watch) would be useful for people who aren’t prone to dropping their phone and are instead more concerned about screen scratches.

CNet has also reported that there is a possibility Apple will turn to a new Qualcomm LTE chip that will open up increased speeds of web-connectivity all the while saving on battery life.
The initial word out is that the iPhone 6S will have minimal changes. These prognosis and comments are being made while Apple has not officially disclosed its sales figures since its new device has been launched.
New iPhone 6S images show updated NFC, 16GB base storage, fewer chips + design tweaks. However, 9to5Mac believes that the iPhone 6S will be 0.13mm thicker, 0.16mm taller and 0.13mm wider than its predecessor. We are expecting the new iPhones to go on sale some time in September and both devices will launch with iOS 9.
Additional changes expected to be seen in the system is Force Touch display and an upgraded camera.
According to the latest reports on a China based website, Micgadget.com, Apple has now finalized the official date for presentation and the subsequent launch of the upcoming iPhone 6S.
Reports from 9to5 Mac say that one section of the board that had an excess of 10 components has been reduced down to 3 main chips, cutting the number of parts and increasing the power of the ones that remain. Many people have complained that the device does not have enough juice to run on full usage for a whole day.
Business Insider got word that the iPhone 6S would start at an entry-level storage capacity of 16GB.
The iPhone 6S’ front camera will feature a flash, panoramic capability and 1080 pixel resolution as against 720 pixels in the iPhone 6.

It is entirely possible this casing isn’t the final one, but as the next iPhone is already rumored to be in production and Gurman has a strong track record with Apple leaks, it’s best not to get your hopes up for a radically redesigned iPhone 7 this autumn. As to what these changes will be, we can only speculate until September.
