Apple's Larger Phones May Be Called iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus

[69650]

That's just stupid to have different naming systems. What are they going to call the update next year, the iPhone 6 Plus S?

For heavens sake this just shows what a bunch of numpties the marketing team are without Steve at the helm.

Drop the freaking numbers and letters and just stick with names. At least people can relate to them. iPhone Colour, Nano, Mini, Air, Pro, Plus, etc.

Let's just call the 5.5 inch iPhone iPhone 5.5, so people can say that nothing really changed since the iPhone 5.

People may want the 5.5 " phone for internet etc. but I think they look very foolish holding a large phone to their face and making calls 😀.

So not only does it look like HTC's design, now in will also be borrowing the "+" moniker ala HTC One and HTC One+

 

[MacsRgr8]

Hmmm, Apple never used ''plus''. Not too sure about this, maybe.

I'd see more something like the iPhone 6L.

Like Mac Plus...?

Nah, I like iPhone and iPhone 6 L more too.

So, next year we get iPhone 6 S and iPhone 6 SL.
Added the "Cheap" one: iPhone 6 CSL (as a BMW liker, I like CSL 😛)

Why would the bigger iPhone be called iPhone Air? The renaming of the iPad to the iPad Air was Apple's first stupid mistake since their small/light/slim notebook was the "Air".

Well air this and that seems too be the mobile tread at Apple.

As speculated in this thread, looks like things are coming together.

Bigger Pockets

This is going to throw off the clothing industry.

4.7: iPhone Air
5.5: iPhone Pro

Taking bets........NOW.

 

[KdParker]

4.7: iPhone Air
5.5: iPhone Pro

Taking bets........NOW.

iPhone Pro?

Cause it is bigger? doubt that.

 

[w00master]

Sounds un-Apple like.

Ahem...

Apple ][+

Ahem...

 

[macnerd77]

I cloud see iPhone pro for the 5.5 model if they add landscape apps.

 

[FrankySavvy]

iPhone 6 Big and Tall edition

Thats a good marketing headline! 😉

Why iphone 6 running an A8 processor?

1. Edge
2. 3G
3. 3Gs
4. Iphone 4 A4
5. Iphone 4S A5
6. Iphone 5 A6
7. Iphone 5S A7
8. Iphone 6 A8

So logically should be iphone 8 as number 8 and A8 processor


==> going to troll away 🙂

 

[taptic]

Iphone 6 plus iWatch = Samsung nightmare

 

[BornAgainMac]

Other Apple products don't have Plus label because they are bigger. I hope this rumor is false.

Ahem....

Apple ][+


Ahem....

So then we are going to start using a few year old chips to match up with the iPad?

 

[w00master]

I just hate the fact that there's a 5.5 inch iPhone.

So, don't buy it. Why is this so hard? And who made you god of all phone sizes?

I can't wait for the 5.5, iPhone 6+.

Steve Jobs would have come up with a cooler name. "iPhone 6 Plus" sounds like a something from a Big and Tall store. Plus sizes for men and women!

 

[PocketSand11]

Not "iPhone" and "iPhone++" or "iPhone#"? 😛

Like he did for the Apple ][+


Oh.... that's right....

With classic Apple computers, they used "Plus" in product names. It does sound really dated, though.
