Report Claims Apple Will Launch 4.7-Inch iPhone 6 in August, Larger Model in September

A new report from Taiwan's Economic Daily News (via Reuters (http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/05/09/apple-iphone-idUSL3N0NV12X20140509)) claims that Apple will unveil and launch the 4.7-inch iPhone 6 in August, with a larger 5.5-inch or 5.6-inch model to be released in September. The report also notes that Apple will produce 80 million iPhone 6 units this year, with Apple suppliers Foxconn and Largan Precision aiding with assembly and camera module production, respectively.

 An August launch of the iPhone 6 would be a different strategy for Apple, as the company has launched the past three versions of the iPhone in September or October. The news also contrasts prior (http://www.macrumors.com/2014/03/27/iphone-6-september/) reports (http://www.macrumors.com/2014/05/07/pegatron-4-7-inch-iphone6-orders-september/) claiming that the 4.7-inch iPhone 6 will launch in September, with the 5.5-inch version not launching until later this year or early 2015 due to issues with the device's battery life (http://www.macrumors.com/2014/04/22/apple-delaying-5-5-iphone-air-battery/) and display (http://www.macrumors.com/2014/04/01/4-7-iphone-6-fall-5-5-version-delayed/) technology (http://www.macrumors.com/2014/05/06/sapphire-display-iphone-6/).
 
 In addition to a larger screen, Apple's next-generation iPhone is expected to include a thinner profile, a faster A8 processor, and an improved camera. Jefferies analyst Peter Misek also claimed last month that Apple is negotiating (http://www.macrumors.com/2014/04/14/iphone-6-100-price-increase/) with carriers to raise the price of the iPhone 6 by $100.
