As far as the launch date of iPhone 6 is concerned, the analyst predicted that Apple will likely to announce the newer phone in September. Moreover, the iPhone 5S was an attempt to unlock future possibilities, therefore, the upcoming model would make use of 64-bit A7 processor and Touch ID fingerprint sensor to the fullest.

It also seems that Apple already broke 50 million mark with its latest iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C. Reportedly, analysts have started predicted that Apple managed to shit 50 million units of iPhones in last quarter alone. This month Apple has started selling both the iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C in China's largest carrier - China mobile. Apple hasn't officially announced its fourth quarter results just yet.

In India, Apple recently reintroduced four-year old iPhone 4 at a price point of Rs. 22,990. It is largely believed that due to falling sales of high-priced iPhone, Apple took this decision of re-launching iPhone 4 in India. Apple discontinued iPhone 4 last year, when the company officially revealed the iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C.
