Following reports earlier this year that suppliers' struggles to produce an adequate volume of wafer-thin batteries for the rumored 5.5-inch iPhone 6 may contribute to an early 2015 launch for the device rather than a late 2014 launch alongside the smaller 4.7-inch model, a new report from Chinese media sources (via GforGames ) suggests the problem may have been solved as Apple has found a new supplier capable of meeting demand.

The report claims that Dynapack has been pushed to sidelines of Apple's supply chain as Simplo and Desai become the main suppliers of batteries for the rumored iPhone 6. While Desai reportedly is struggling to work within Apple's design constraints, Simplo supposedly has designed a workaround that allows it to produce mass quantities of the thin, but efficient battery module. If this report is accurate, then battery supply may not be an issue for Apple going forward.



Apple is expected to unveil the iPhone 6 at a media event around its usual September timeframe. The next-generation iPhone is rumored to feature a larger display, thinner design, improved camera optics, enhanced Touch ID sensor and a new, faster A8 processor.


















Wireless Net Neutrality

Though it has been diluted by the Federal Communications Commission in its current form, the idea of "net neutrality" was initially put in place in order to ensure that Internet services delivered to American consumers are kept fair and neutral for consumers and for content owners. The current proposal being batted around is anything but neutral considering the fact that it allows content owners to pay Internet service providers for "fast lanes" that will deliver their content to users more quickly and smoothly, but that is an entirely different issue. For now, we shift focus to a different part of the debate: Should wireless services be covered by net neutrality?

Apple Patent Biometric Communication

Touch ID might have been better in concept than as a practical security measure, but as with any template for future designs, Apple's fingerprint scanner is just the beginning of the company's exploration of biometrics. According to a recent patent, Apple wants to enable a wider range of functionality using your fingers, your eyes and even your voice in the future. The patent suggests that the owner of a device could store any user's biometric data within the device and then restrict or allow access to certain features depending on the user's identification.

More iPhone 6 details emerge in new report!

iPhone 6 Specs

While other smartphone makers continue to focus on megapixel counts with their new cameras, Apple is reportedly taking a different approach with the iPhone 6. Samsung's Galaxy S5 will likely feature a 16-megapixel camera compared to the 13-megapixel unit on the S4. Sony's recent high-end smartphones feature 20.7-megapixel cameras. And then there's Nokia's flagship Lumia 1020, which features a 41-megapixel shooter. But just like the iPhone 5s before it, Apple's iPhone 6 will reportedly feature an 8-megapixel camera when it debuts later this year.
