Rose Gold it is!

The latest report confirms that the new gen iPhones will actually come in a new colour, which is Rose Gold not only in appearance but name as well.

This new Rose Gold color is believed to be a variation on the gold option with a copper-like tone, and have a white colour front panel, similar to the standard gold iPhone. It is also mentioned in the report that this new colour resembles the shades of two gold variants for the Apple Watch, including a premium edition that costs over $10,000. However, the Rose Gold iPhone will not be a premium edition, and instead don an anodized aluminum chassis. It is also suggested that the company has worked on animated wallpapers on the lock screen for the Rose Gold colour variant of upcoming iPhones.

Force touch has more features

The Force Touch on iPhone will work similar to the force sensitive technology on new MacBooks and in the Apple Watch. However, the force touch technology on iPhone 6S' will mainly be used to short-cutting iOS features, instead of working as an additional menu overlay for buttons.

Another interesting part is that Apple may call the Force Touch display on the iPhone by their name.
