Rumours say Apple iPhone 5S to hit markets on September 6

Rumours and speculations, tons of them, have always preceded major Apple announcements, and the iPhone 5S is turning out to be no exception. After weeks of speculation on this unannounced smartphone’s specs, rumours have it that the smartphone will be “coming to market” on September 6.

Coming on September 6?

The rumours don’t end just there. iFun has information that Apple will also be making “two new types of devices” available, and by this it does not mean devices in two different colours or in varying memory sizes.

Like always, we’d suggest you take these rumours with a pinch of salt too, just to avoid any disappointment.

Interestingly though, we are not altogether unfamiliar with the September timeline. A couple of months ago, it had been rumoured that the iPhone 5S would hit stores in September, ahead of the iPad 5 launch.

In May this year, it had been rumoured that the iPhone 5S could come in different colours. At the time, Japanese website Macotakara claimed to have pictures of the iPhone 5S with different-coloured back panels. These back panels in the picture seem to have a very glossy style, which would be uncharacteristic of Apple considering the matte finish that the iPhone 5 had.

The website had also said that the phone will have a dual-LED flash. However, it wouldn’t be that much of a stretch, but as with all rumours and speculations, we’ll simply have to wait and see what the Cupertino-based company does.
