Every day, new details about theiPhone 6 find their way onto the internet.
Today, pictures were leaked claiming to be from inside the Chinese factory assembling the iPhone 6, showing detailed measurements, schematics and behind the scenes information.
This week we've seen some of the most detailed images yet of both the 4.7" and 5.5" versions of the Apple'snext generation smartphone.
So as the tech giant's biggest launch of the year draws near, here's a roundup of everything we know - and think we know - so far.

Will there be more than one iPhone model?

We're expecting Apple to release two models of iPhone 6 with 4.7" and 5.5" screen sizes - though it's not certain they'll both be released at the same time

Pictures apparently leaked to French website Igen from within the Chinese factory assembling the iPhone 6, show detailed measurements and specifications of two distinct models - with the iPhone 5s included for comparison.

There's been talk of a delay between the two versions - either because of delays in the supply chain, or as a deliberate move to prevent competition between the devices when they hit stores.
There'll be the usual storage capacity and colour option. While it's thought the space gray/black and white/silver colourways will remain, the fate of the gold version isn't certain.
There's also speculation that the super-strong sapphire crystal display will be reserved for a premium, more expensive model.

When will it come out?

We're expecting an announcement event on September 9th, with iPhones hitting stores soon - perhaps as soon as a week or two after. Though initial estimates suggested the release date wouldn't be until mid-October.
If the rumours of a staggered release for the two models are correct, we can expect to see the larger version about a month later.

What will the new iPhone look like?


The iPhone 6 is expected to have a more rounded body than the 5S - with a design that harks back to the original first-generation iPhone.
An alleged schematic leaked today suggested the new phone will be 7mm thick - and the 4.7" model has a codename of N56.

What new features are we expecting?

The  iPhone  6 will feature a new super-fast WiFi chip and an improved Touch ID fingerprint sensor, according to reports.
It will also feature  Apple's  next generation A8 processor, which should give the  smartphone  a huge performance boost, according to tech website Venture Beat
Apple's new device is also expected to have a vastly improved camera, with a 13-megapixel sensor provided by Sony  .
There's also speculation that the phone's new Lightning connector cable will work either way up - at bothends.
The iPhone 5's cable was Apple's first charging cable that would work regardless of which way round you put it in - and it's thought they've come up with a solution for how to make the USB end reversible too.
The new screen - on the 4.7" version, at leasty - is thought to have a higher resolution than previous models.
The Retina screen on the current iPhone 5S has a density of 10.5 pixels per mm. The 1704x960 display suggested by Feld & Volk would be a much sharper 16 pixels per mm.

Will the battery life be better?

Photos have emerged purporting to show the new iPhone's batteries.
The leaked pictures show batteries with whopping 1810 and 2915mAh capacities.  That's much bigger than the current iPhone 5S battery, which is just 1560mAh.

Will it have Sapphire glass?

A size difference is rumoured

The inclusion of Sapphire glass on the iPhone 6 has been the subject of speculation ever since a video purporting to be the phone's screen appeared on YouTube.
Analysts have inspected Apple's supply chain and say it's unlikely that all of the phone's unprecedented production run will feature the near-indestructible crystal displays.
