Foxconn will begin production of the 4.7-inch iPhone 6 this month, according to Taiwan's Economic Daily News via Reuters.

Mass production of a 4.7-inch successor to the wildly popular iPhone 5 series of smartphones will begin during the third week of July, Taiwan's Economic Daily News said, without citing sources. Production of a 5.5-inch version will begin during the second week of August, it said.

A China state run news service said Hon Hain is planning to hire 100,000 works to meet manufacturing demands for the smartphone, citing comments made by the chief of the Henan Provincial Commerce Department. This corroborates a report from last month saying the same thing.

Pegatron is also said to be hiring 10,000 workers to help in manufacturing of the phone.

Apple is expected to unveil the iPhone 6 this September. Please follow iClarified on Twitter, Facebook, or RSS for updates on the device.

Isn't is strange that there's no news about the "iPhone 6C" ? Not much about the Air 2 either.

Because air 2 was mentioned months back, but there is nothing about 6c, there was 5c because it was the only way to go cheaper.

This is why IBM joined, to get the bigger screen with real functionality that many have been waiting for, many that more than a 3/4 of the world cares about that it.

NO, IBM is partnering with Apple because it makes good business sense to align with a company that makes profits from innovative products. They could care less about a cell phone that is 5.5", (otherwise they would have partnered with SamScum!)
