iPhone 6 is arguably the most awaited handset of this year. Both the Apple fanboys and Android loyalists are waiting to see what apple has to offer this time for its flagship phone. The Company is largely expected to make some major changes on its iPhone to ward off increasing competition from the Android camp. Recently, New rumours have started to surface online for Apple's upcoming iteration of the iPhone handset. These rumours hint the iPhone 6 will arrive with a much thinner body, better camera, super powerful processor and a higher pixel density screen.

iPhone 6 Rumors

The rumours come from Sonny Dickson. For those of you who do not know he is, he is the Australian teen who rose to fame by leaking largely accurate information about Apple iPhone 5S. So, It would be interesting to see if he gets it right this time as well! Dickson has bone to microblogging site twitter and posted information about the upcoming iPhone. Dickson, in one of his four tweets on the subject, said, "iPhone 6 will be 0.22 inches thick #JustSaying."

On the other tweets about the iPhone 6, Dickson mentioned the inclusion of an Ultra-Retina screen, which will pack 389 pixels per inch (ppi). His Tweet read- Ultra-Retina screen will be 389 ppi #JustSaying. This is as per previous leaks which had tapped sources in the display supply chain to analyze panel sizes and resolutions currently under development. Those leaks had suggested that Apple could be exploring a 4.7-inch 1600x900 with a 386 ppi screen and/or a 5.5-inch 1920x1080 with a 401 ppi screen.

He furthermore talked about the chipset that might arrive in the next Apple iPhone. His Tweet on the topic was - "The new Apple A8 processor will run at 2.6GHz #JustSaying," his tweet read. The iPhone 5s incorporates a 64-bit A7 28-nanometer chip manufactured by Samsung. Previous leaks on this had suggested that Apple's iPhone 6 will reportedly incorporate a 20-nanometer A8 chip from TSMC, which will be both smaller and more energy efficient.

Dickson finally tweeted "These specs could be the real thing #JustSaying." Well, we would have for the actual iPhone to arrive to see if that is the case but these leaks and various others do indicate that Apple is finally making some drastic changes on its iPhone line after iPhone 4. I, for one,  am very excited
