Apple iPhone 6 Actual Release Date after September 9 Confirmed 128GB Variant with New Resolution
Apple's September 9 announcement but not actual release of the iPhone 6 makes sense not just for marketing's sake. Apple's decision not to release the iPhone 6 on September 9 is not just about production problems rather, it may also have something to do with the company's stocks. Too many things going on September 9 will make Apple stocks a bad investment move. More importantly, new leak on the Apple iPhone 6 suggest it may come with a 128GB version and new resolution. Is Apple ready to make the big splash?
September is not just all about the iPhone 6. In fact, the flagship phone is part of the bigger picture and concern whether Apple stocks can perform well enough. According to Seeking Alpha, it may not be a good idea to sell Apple stocks on the date of the announcement. People have to look into tax considerations in relation to quick capital gains.
According to Seeking Alpha's Jason Russ: "Taking out the very first launch - I think it is reasonable to postulate that the first iPhone data tells us little about what to expect going forward - and averaging the last six years results in a post-launch loss of 1.3%. Using data from the last four years results in an average loss of 4.4% in the month following a new phone release."
Russ also adds: "Nonetheless, any investor who is on the fence about selling some Apple shares or is considering selling covered calls might want to think long and hard about September 9th, or whatever date turns out to be the iPhone 6 release date."
According to Forbes, the iPhone 6 has attracted immense attention that leaks and predictions about the device are on a much accelerated rate compared to previous years. Among the much talked about detail about the iPhone 6 is the 128GB model. Analysts say this should support the new phablet version. The resolution should also be comparatively different with the new sapphire screen. Other noteworthy features include the NFC payment and the thinner build. Apple has issued an invite on its September 9 event with the invitation bearing the words: "We wish we could say more."
According to reports and based from Apple's tradition, the actual release of the iPhone will be two weeks following the announcement. In this case, it should be around September 19 after the media event on September 9.
