iPhone 6C accidentally leaked on Apples UK website

Apple have accidentally leaked a picture of the iPhone 6C on their UK website. Much like the 5C it has a coloured plastic back but now sports a Touch ID home button. Picture in links below.

Uh oh.

Makes sense for Apple to do this as I've always thought they sold quite well for what they are and give Apple a model to go up against the mid range Android phones

Slow day for you Everything? This was reported by the Apple rumour sites a few days ago.

Gigabit · 23-05-2015, 23:53

Apparently this is fake as it has too few rows of icons.

I love my iphone 5c, i like the plastic back, plus its blue, my fave colour, hope they do launch an iphone 6c

The icon rows are 4 Across and 6 Down. This the same on the the iPhone 6 and iPhone 5/C however the gap at the bottom is smaller on an iPhone 5C which suggests it has a smaller screen.

Did you mean the 5S? The 6 has more rows than the 5S and 5C.

The iPhone 5S has same 4 Across and 6 Down icons as the 5C. But don't take my word for it. Direct link to Apples website again.

The 6 and 6 Plus do support an extra line of Icons. But wasn't obvious from the images Apple placed on their website as they only showed 6 instead of 7 Down.

An iPhone-shaped ripple of excitement has been cruelly smashed out of existence. A leaked photo of the iPhone 6C in a dock on Apple’s website has reportedly turned out to merely be a Photoshop cock-up.

According to one of the Mac rumour sites, someone at Apple messed up selecting layers before exporting the image, resulting in all the other rumour sites getting quite grumpy about having reported on the rumour in the first place, perhaps momentarily even considering getting out of the rumour game entirely. (OK, that last bit clearly isn’t true — when the sun goes supernova, this planet will comprise only deserts, cockroaches and Apple rumour websites.)

I can't help thinking of the american car industry in the 1950s, when there was much publicity centred around how many 'portholes' each new model had.

Really hope they don't do this the 6 is such a lovely looking device why ruin it with cheap tacky plastic.

Regardless of what you read on the U.S. websites, the 5c did sell well here in Europe so I wouldn't be surprised to see a 6c.

Gigabit · 25-05-2015, 11:25

I don't see many 5cs around. I see a lot of 5ss and 6ss around. A few 6 Pluss too.

I see a LOT of 5cs at work as the cheap entry level 4G iOS device.

'Accidentally'

Stereo Steve · 25-05-2015, 21:03

I can't recall but was the 5C cheaper than the 5 when it came out? Or did it come out at the same time as the 5S?

Same time as 5s and had same 4g capabilities for O2 & Voda for UK.

The Lord Lucan · 26-05-2015, 10:34

Why are folk mentioning the iPhone 6 and being negative in this?

The 6C will be a 4in with the internals of a 5S or a 6 with a slight battery drop from the 6.
The 6S & 6S+ will be the same as today but with upgraded internals.

All iPhones will therefore be be A7/A8 or above with 64bit, Touch ID & Apple pay compatible.
