Leaked photos of the iPhone 6 showcase a phone that has rounded edges and are approximately one or two millimeters smaller, in depth.<\/p>\n<p>Apple is also having issues with the screens backlighting; they wanted to gain a profile design edge with a single backlight layer (most smartphones have two layers) in the 4.7-inch model of the iPhone 6, according to a report by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/2014\/08\/22\/us-apple-iphone-idUSKBN0GM0N620140822\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;\">Reuters<\/span><\/span><\/a>. The single layer caused the 4.7-inch screen to be too dim and Apple was forced to rethink the design and add another layer<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">.<\/span> <span style=\"color: #333333;\">Reuters<\/span><\/span> also stated that this issue happened during this summer and that production is on track for the 4.7-inch model.<\/p>\n<p>However this isn\u2019t Apple\u2019s only problem, they are also experiencing delays with the larger 5.5-inch model, as reports suggest it may be delayed until 2015 \u2013 again because of a \u201cthinness\u201d issue. Since the phone is so thin, suppliers are having a difficult time finding a battery that fits the phone properly.<\/p>\n<p>Of course Apple was happy to comment on these rumors\u2026NOT! That would only be wishful thinking. As usual, they aren\u2019t saying a word! But let\u2019s hope they don\u2019t postpone the date too far out, because Samsung\u00a0is ready for the launch of their new Galaxy Alpha phone, on September 12, 2014. Apple should really get it together, and fast.<\/p>\n<p>The iPhone 6 was expected to unveil on September 9, 2014. However, with the new delays, they may not be able to deliver after all \u2013 if the rumors are true of course. If anything, they may announce the new phone, and delay actual product availability. This would really put a damper on consumers who have been impatiently waiting.<\/p>\n<p>Until Apple figures out its master plan, you can check out <span style=\"color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;\">these leaked photos<\/span> that were released this week.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Source: <em><a href=\"Mashable,%20http:\/\/mashable.com\/2014\/08\/22\/report-production-glitch-could-hamper-iphone-6\/\">Mashable<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; If you have been counting down the days to Apple\u2019s release of the new iPhone 6, you may want to keep on counting!
