Update on Apple iPhone 6 – Some of the Internal Parts Leaked
Morning isn’t a morning if you don’t have anything to hear about Apple iPhone 6. The rumor mill of this long-rumored flagship smartphone doesn’t seem to be ending instead it’s getting on the peak. Anyways, there’re some things that supposed to be real when we talk about Apple’s next big thing. Larger display is one of them where all of the different rumors and reports intersect each other.
We have seen Apple’s competitors launching the devices with larger display. So, it could be the reason that we are expecting a larger iPhone that might hold a screen size of 5.5-inch. Those who really don’t like bigger display shouldn’t get worried as there’re also some reports over the web saying Apple has two iPhones for the September launch; one with 4.7-inch screen size while other with 5.5-inch.
Now come to the latest update on Apple’s next-gen iPhone. A Japanese tech blog ASCII.jp published some of the images of iPhone 6’s internal parts that could be of TouchID sensor. Apple first introduced this technology in iPhone 5S last year that lets users unlock their handsets and verify App Store purchases simply putting finger on the scanner.
From the leaked images, we can see a clear difference between the two parts. The top one is from iPhone 5S while the bottom one is said to be from iPhone 6. We aren’t sure about the authenticity of these images; it may or may not be real. There’s still no word from the company for iPhone 6 release date, specs and design.

Handy Tips to Save Your iPhone Battery
How would you react when you had to make an urgent call or text but couldn’t do so because of the low battery life? Obviously, no one would like to experience this situation. It’s a very common problem that most of the smartphone users are dealing with. But now, we’ll try a bit to resolve this issue as it’s happened mostly due to the negligence in use. We bring you a handy guide that may help you boost your iPhone battery.
Turn On ‘Reduce Motion’
The iOS 7 brought a slew of new options but there’re some new features like Parallax causing headache as it makes the background moving when your iPhone or iPad is tilted. We haven’t come across anyone saying anything good about this feature. So, it’s far batter to get rid of this moving background. You need to go to the General > Accessibility > and then Enable the ‘Reduce Motion’.
Disable Location Detection
If there’s any valid cause on putting GPS ‘ON’, then we won’t ask you to turn it off. And if you put it ON just for nothing then we’ll better suggest you to get it down. Doing so could really give a boost to your iPhone’s battery. Go to the Setting > Privacy > Location Services and then disable it.
Turn Off Wi-Fi and Bluetooth (when not in use)
You aren’t going to get a reward on keeping the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth ‘ON’. It’s better to turn them off when not in use. Visit Control Center and give them a rest. This might also help you improve your phone’s battery.
Reduce the Screen Brightness
It’s one of the main things that you can do reducing your battery’s consumption. If you are interested in bumping up your handset’s battery life then there shouldn’t be any issue with reducing the brightness of the screen. Go to the Setting > Wallpaper & Brightness > Brightness.

Apple Hires a Sales Director of Renowned Watch Company For its iWatch Launch
Apple according to a report at Apple Insider, hires the sales director of a well-known watch manufacturer TAG Heuer to get assistance for its much-anticipated iWatch launch that could happen anytime in the fall of this year.
The Jean-Claude Biver (Head of the TAG Heuer) said in an interview to CNBC that the company’s sales director has left for Apple last week. He further says, he would have been disappointed if the marketing chief had joined another watch manufacturer. Biver also hopes that Apple will provide him a great working experience.

What Rumor Mill Says Regarding iWatch?
According to the different reports and rumors, Apple will be releasing its next-generation iPhone 6 along with its much-awaited iWatch later this year. It was being supposed that Apple will surely hint about its upcoming lineup for 2014 at its annual WWDC event but unfortunately, there was nothing except the announcement of the new operating systems, the iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite.
One thing that puts weight to the story saying Apple is prepping for iWatch launch is Apple’s focus for health issues. We have seen it introducing HealthKit at the Worldwide Developers Conference on June 2. With this app users will be able to track their sugar level, heart rate, steps, sleep and all that’s needed for being well.
Obviously, Apple will need a device for this purpose. So, Apple iWatch is supposed to be the one which will be doing that job. Anyways, we can’t say anything for sure especially when we are talking about Apple. We’ll let you know if there comes anything official from the company. So stay tuned!
