The Complete iPhone 6S Rumor Guide Revealed

Rose Gold Color Option
Various sources have speculated that the iPhone 6S will be released in a new color option, rose gold. The fourth color option would create an enticing option for people with slightly more eclectic tastes. Sources have been back and forth regarding the rose gold option, some say we will have it, and some say the opposite. Hopefully Apple does release the new color option, the more the merrier.
Super Strong Materials
Another exciting rumor is the supposed reinforcement in Apple’s new iPhone 6S back plate. The dimensions are only slightly thicker than the current iPhone 6 and 6 Plus models: 1.9mm on the iPhone 6S versus 1.14mm on the iPhone 6 according to measurements done by Unbox Therapy. Furthermore, despite the additional thickness, the new iPhone 6S shell will weigh in approximately 2 grams lighter than its predecessor. For those concerned about a heavier new iPhone model, this will put their concerns to rest.
The difference in weight, it seems, comes from Apple’s move to invest in and use 7000 series aluminum in their iPhone casings. 7000 series aluminum is touted to be “60 percent stronger than most aluminum, and one-third the density of stainless steel.” This is the same material that is currently being used in the Apple Watch Sport, so it would make sense that Apple would carry the successes over to its iPhone device.
iPhone 6C
Prominent leaker, Evan Blass, stated yesterday:

Blass, notorious for leaking information regarding several HTC, Motorola, and Samsung devices ahead of their launch, has an extremely accurate track record when it comes to leaking information on mobile devices. So while, we are hearing rumors that the 6C will not come out and will be discontinued, it is possible that there will be a release. However, judging by the failure of the previous C series, we would not be shocked to see it get dropped completely. The truth will be known on September 9th. Would you guys like to see a C series?
