Apple Meets With Thai Officials to Discuss 'iPhone 6' Approval Disclosure

[ILikeAllOS]

Apple had better not scroll through the latest entries on the MR home page then.

Apple already knows about MR and their devs frequently visit this site.

You don't pay attention much on here if you believe that.

Clearly you are the one not paying attention. Macrumors showing you two variants of a home button and saying it MUST BE from a 4.7 and 5.5 iPhone is ridiculous, and pure fantasy.

Show me a schematic, display part, front casing, back casing, or any interior shot of the the mythical 5.5" device. You can't, because there are none. Conversely, you can find ALL of that as it relates to the actual, real, existing 4.7" device. Like I said, clearly you are the one not paying attention.

iPhone 5CS? I wonder if they'll position the 5C as the low-end in developed markets, the "5CS" where the 5C is now, and the "6" as the new high end? Sales of the 5C haven't been radically different from previous "old model" iPhones, and FoxConn has gotten really efficient at making the aluminum cases, so it's still conceivable that they will keep the 5S around as the mid-range.

We haven't seen any leaks from the purported 5.5" model, but we haven't seen any "5CS" leaks, either (though that would be easier to keep a secret since it just involves putting the 5S innards into the 5C case).

Putting the 5s internals in the 5c shell is exactly what will be happening, and precisely why there is very little 'new' to indicate it happening. Your whole first paragraph is wrong.

----------

Did you miss the stories where the parts leaked for a 5.5 version??

1. Home Button Flex - August leak
2. 14cm (5.5in) LCD display component - June leak
3. 5.5 inch Logic board - July leak

So what are you talking about?!? There have been even more parts leaked then what I listed.

So how do you think parts haven't leaked?

Sorry but you need to pay closer attention. Not a single one of those part leaks has anything to do with a 5.5" device, nor do any of them actually indicate anything related to a 5.5" device. You, and macrumors alike for fantastical reasons, assume that because they are showing 2 parts, it must from THE ONLY TWO new iPhones it could be. But no, in fact they actually indicate nothing. They are from iPhones, upcoming iPhones, but for the third time....nothing to indicate what size the device will be. Far far more likely one of those home buttons/logic boards is actually from the 4.7" device and the revised 5c-esq model that will occupy the $99 price point.

Like I said, show me ANY of the parts we've seen that explicitly indicate a 4.7" device in the 5.5" flavor, and you have a argument. Lacking that, you have fantasy.

----------

You are not Apple. Only Apple can say whether there is or not. I bet you would go back and say you were always thinking Apple was going to release a 5.5" phone if Apple announced it.

What would be the point of that? I am not a sniveling little child that must always be right on the internet :roll eyes:

Apple is not realizing two flagship iPhones. They are not releasing a 5.5" iPhone at all.

If that were to happen, I'd be wrong, but they won't, so I'm not.

Seriously, banning sales is the most absurd thing any company would do. Like shooting his own foot with ibullet.

Do you think Apple would behave like America which forcing sanction on other countries ?

Apple doesn't need to do stuff like this to generate buzz. That's as silly as those who claim Apple intentionally restricts supply to artificially create demand.

I take it you never worked in Marketing & Sales in any reasonably sized company then. EVERY company looks for new ways to get publicity, no matter how big they are, or how much/little they really need to. You don't stop marketing and building buzz for your brand any way you can, just because you got so big and rich. That's ridiculous to think they wouldn't take positive publicity/buzz any way they can get it.

BTW, do you have reg human hands?

Yes, why? Note, hands, plural. I do have two regular, working human hands. Capable of easily operating any touchscreen device that I've tried, up to 12".
