iPhone 6 already out

[RyanTheGeneral]

Just out of curiosity. What size was it. Could not tell from picture.

 

[ET iPhone Home]

I wonder how they got it.

I think she's a visitor from China visiting the US and got a hold of an iPhone 6 back home.

 

[The Doctor11]

Not what you you know its who you know

 

[jamets515]

I think it's a 6 not a 6+.

Take your iP5/iP5S and hold it the way she is in the picture... no way that's a 6+

Yeah, it's definitely a 6.
I just got my 6 Plus case and I put the 6Plus cutout in it and tried holding it like she is. It's a 6 not a Plus.
And BTW, I'm a girl too so unless she has man hands, it's a 6!

I wonder how they got it.

Any company that has been working on the NFC payments initiative has had dozens of the devices available for a little bit now. And I'm not talking the high tech silicon valley sector. People like McDonald's IT, Subway IT, Whole Foods IT departments, etc. Its required to certify the devices for payment security certification.

Now most are accompanied by pretty strict monitoring, usage restrictions and NDA's. But having seen an ip6 and 6+ myself side by side with my Note 3, I made my decision between which of the two I preferred easily.

I would say it´s most likely a china clone

Wouldn't be surprising to be fair.

I saw a couple on my weekend trip to Carmel/Monterey myself. And both were Apple employees.

Nice catch OP!

I actually saw two iPhone 6's last night at the 49ers game. One was in a case, the other just out in the open. Both users were taking photos with them. They were not the 6 plus. Being in that area of California it didnt surprise me, I was too into the game to care though. Go Bears!

Looks like you were in a museum or gallery.

 

[Dunbar]

When you think about it, what's the harm in the new iPhone's being seen out in the wild now that they've been announced?

Actually a teahouse. I'm sure the metadata gave that away (if that's your thing!)

 

[allthingsapple!]

Great! Then move on. There are hundreds more that will find it interesting.

No one says you have to believe it, or the visual proof for that matter. Does it matter that I saw a second? Why lie about it when I already posted proof of one? Does seeing the second make the first (with a picture) less credible. I feel for you.

i find it interesting and exciting so thank you for posting it! I don't get why some people have to be so damn rude on this forum. It's rather distasteful to be honest.

 

[thesiren]

That was definitely a 6+. I have the 6+ case right here in my hands -- I'm a girl and my hands are placed exactly just like her's when holding it. It's a 6+!!!!!

 

[noiceT]

Probably a reviewer.

Yeah that looks like a 6

 

[AceMason]

She looks Asian

 

[Killchain]

I've already spotted two 6's out in the wild (in San Francisco). Anyone else spotted any? Got a picture of one. The other would have been much, much tougher.

I bet a Cupertino worker...................

 

[thesiren]

Definitely a 6+!

 

[thesiren]

6+ case

 

[hipnetic]

This photo confirms it...you can't use these new phones one-handed. Damn!

 

[joeblow7777]

Crazy. I'd figure Apple would have done something to make them unusable until the 19th.

Why?

 

[danilko1]

Here's what you should do.

Accuse them of theft.

Then, they would come back and tell you... Oh no, I work for Apple.

Then you say, how do I know you don't work for Gizmodo?

They either pull out a business card, or they will run.

Then call 911.

With the iPhone 4 (I think it was that one), mine was accidentally delivered like 2 days before launch. I had to take it into AT&T to do a cross-upgrade and they couldn't believe I had it already.

Mine too!! My friends were so mad they had to camp out when I already had it!

And why not ask him for his iphone to make a call because you forgot your phone.

After that you could ask him how he get the new iphone 6 before every one else.

With 80,000 Apple employees it is not difficult to understand that of them already have it.
