5.5-inch iPhone To Be Called ‘iPhone Air’

We are already aware of the fact that the iPhone 6 is soon going to come and Apple has planned two different variants for it; a 4.7 inch version and another 5.5 inch version which is more of a phablet. The release date has been suspected to be in September and is also widely accepted that the 4.7 inch version will come earlier than the 5.5 inch version which is also facing some manufacturing issues. But the recent news says that Apple is also going to release the 16 GB version of the 5.5 inch iPhone 6 on the same date when it will announce the 4.7 inch version.

This information has come from a couple of Chinese publications which also suggest that the new iPhone 6 is going to be known widely as the “iPhone Air”. The name game sounds familiar and it seems reasonable on Apple’s part because the design resembles the iPad Air/ iPad mini product line. The special launch is scheduled to take place on September 15th and Apple is reportedly going to be sending out the invitations for the event.
