Almost as common is the top speed on the rumor mill ahead of an Apple launch, and online almost runs over alleged photos, videos and design studies of new models.
Before today’s launch starting 19.00 Norwegian time, there is no shortage of those who claim to know what comes from the secretive manufacturer in Cupertino, California. And many media jumps on the Apple marketers big smile on his face.
The time has come for an iPhone 6 is there are few if any are in doubt. But if Apple actually launches two models such belief, remains to be seen. Most tips go in the direction of a 4.7 inch variant plus a model with a bigger screen.
Could it be Apple has decided to go into the throat of Samsung’s Galaxy Note burly 4? What we do in this case could trigger something of a “phablet-wave.” Mobiles approaching the smallest tablet size.
NFC and mobile payment
And what about NFC allowing for simple wireless transfer of data between two devices, which can be found at Most Android phones? Apple has so far chosen to focus on Bluetooth low energy, but with the iPhone 6 can NFC be an Apple reality.
An argument often used to substantiate NFC support, is the ability for mobile payments. Many therefore believe that both NFC and a separate mobile payment solution is on tonight’s launch menu.
Many believe also that a larger battery is on the cards, not to mention the increased phone size. Not only require larger screens more power, battery capacity of the current iPhone 5S with its 1560mAh example, less than half of what Sony Xperia Z3 can show.
Scratch resistant sapphire crystal is another rumor, though here the rumor mill twofold. Too expensive, according to those who have faith.
The hardware generally become more powerful is a natural part of technological development. How powerful is the processor, what about the quality of the fingerprint reader, and Apple has made significant grip on the camera side? The evening will show.

Smart Watch
The last few weeks have also circulated growing number of rumors that Apple will pull the veil of their long-awaited smart watch that probably will be named Iwatch or mari time applica- tions. Though it is not the first time it has been expected a clever clock launch from the edge, and there are those who think a clever clock-first launch will come later this fall.
Apple will still get something to contend with. Both Samsung and Sony have gained valuable experience in the smart watch market and recently we have seen exciting models from both LG and Motorola.
So the question is then, if Apple manages to come up with something new and revolutionary ala what they did when the iPhone was launched in 2007 and the mobile market changed overnight.
More about Ios 8 will probably be related to the iPhone launch. A new Ipad Air which is also speculation, we think probably will not show up tonight. And what is today’s big surprise that Apple does not deliver as expected?
