The launch of the iPhone 6s is just around the corner, and we've only seen two or three component leaks and a bunch of reports from analysts and factory sources for the pair of phones to date. In short, this year is very poor in terms of leaks, but it seems that the first more comprehensive leaks are starting to appear as the show date approaches. But the latest one is very interesting – it's not quite a leak, nor a preview of the finished phone, and it's certainly not a Chinese fake. This time we have a look at a kind of frankenstein-phone, which was created after a source fitted a leaked motherboard and display from an iPhone 6s to an iPhone 6. As it turns out, the board is functional and the device can be turned on, but instead of iOS only the gear icon is loaded here.
But this is enough proof that componenties that had escaped from the factory earlier were genuine. What is debatable is the presence of Force Touch technology in the leaked display. There is currently no way to confirm whether the display offers two levels of compression, but the metal cover of the display is no longer attached to it, but glued. The leaked motherboard also revealed some secrets, namely the new Qualcomm MDM9635 LTE modem, which will iPhone 6s to support even more LTE networks and also has a newer radio frequency receiver inside.
The new chip is made using a 28-nm process, which is a big leap from the 65-nm chip inside the iPhone 6. Additionally, in iPhone 6s no longer has a chip for operator aggregation, as its function was incorporated directly into the new receiver. Combining two chips into one and using a more advanced manufacturing process will have a positive effect on consumption. The processor is also new Apple A9, but this is a pre-production sample and no information is written on it. But the chip is roughly 10% larger compared to the A8, which may indicate that the processor will have three cores, or it may have hidden some componenties that were previously distributed in separate chips on the board.

So now I happen to be on spigen.com, and in addition to the 6 and 6plus, the range of accessories for iPhones also includes the 6S and 6Splus. And as the cover image is iphone6 in rose gold. Spigen has already published a photo of the new iPhone several times ahead of time, maybe even now.
That's how it is every year, mostly on dx.com and many other Asian e-shops, I always come across the fact that they sell accessories for new and nesteven the unreleased generation of the iPhone
In the article you have some nonsense about the production processes used.
The A7 was made with a 28 nm process, the A8 is made with a 20 nm process and the A9 will be made with a 14 nm process.
Marek Mikuš: But this is not about processors, but about a chip that is in charge of telecommunications. I mentioned him in the previous sentence.
nostradamus: Can you please send the link? I can't find it there at all.
Daniel Pražák: just click on the shop on their home page. http://www.spigen.com/collections/iphone-6s
chips07:
spigen is an american manufacturer of mobile phone accessories, no china but really quality. I've had a few things from them and they've always been really quality accessories.
Jaromír Miko: so why is it in the new paragraph, when it is related to the last sentence of the previous paragraph? ;-)
Marek Mikuš: Mainly for better readability. But the text was tied to the previous three lines, which talked about telecommunication chips from Qualcomm
nostradamus: Thanks a lot, I was looking for it everywhere in those photos of the individual covers.
