iPhone 6 Rumored September Release Date; Tech Giant to Begin Production Next Week

iPhone fans have learned that when Apple hires thousands of extra workers in a short amount of time, an iPhone release is probably in store. And now Foxconn, a manufacturing company who assists in the production of iPhones, has allegedly hired on extra hands to deal with the demands of having 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch iPhone 6 orders completed by September.

With all the hires, tech analysts have speculated that the 4.7-inch will begin mass production this month. The 5.5-inch iPhone 6 is slated to begin production next month in a staggered schedule.

Apple has yet to officially confirm the September release date, but if past releases tell us anything, the best bet is for sometime in late in September. Unlike past years, there will be two different screen sizes, which makes production more tricky.

The staggered production time line makes it difficult to know if the 5.5-inch iPhone 6 will be ready in time for consumers. As previously reported, some analysts believe that the 5.5-inch iPhone 6 could be pushed back to 2015.

The initial report that Foxconn was hiring an additional 100,000 employees came from Taiwan's Economic Daily News. With no cited sources to back up their claims, it is still unknown if these reports can be trusted. Whenever a new iPhone is about to break ground, there are always rumors floating around.

While the Foxconn report cannot be confirmed, Pegatron, another key company in iPhone production, has hired on more than 10,000 extra workers. All signs point to a massive production buildup that may mean a new Apple iPhone is in store.

Aside from the screen differentials, the iPhone 6 camera has also gotten a much-needed upgrade. the iPhone 5S camera has 8-megapixels, while the new iPhone 6 cameras said to be at 13-megapixels. Every pixel is important when it comes to taking the 'perfect selfie.'

As the clock ticks down to September, keep an eye out for official Apple news. Rumors come and go but the real information is going to come from the tech company itself.
