Finally, UDN’s supply chain sources also predicted that Apple would boost the storage capacity of the entry-level iPhone from 16GB to 32GB.

However, while the Force Touch feature on the Apple Watch simply provides another input method, UDN’s sources believe that the pressure sensors used in the upcoming iPhone model will enable the device to read a user’s pulse and blood pressure. As stated by Apple, “Force Touch uses tiny electrodes around the flexible Retina display to distinguish between a light tap and a deep press.” UDN’s supply chain sources also predicted that the iPhone 6S would incorporate the “3D pressure sensor” technology used in the Apple Watch that enables the device’s Force Touch input feature. According to Gruber, the rumored dual-lens camera module would allow the next-generation iPhone to take “DSLR quality” images. This rumor appears to be similar to a dual-lens camera rumor reported by Daring Fireball blogger John Gruber last November. According to UDN’s supply chain sources, Apple’s iPhone 6S will feature a new dual-lens camera design that will offer an optical zoom function and will improve overall image quality by increasing the amount of light that reaches the image sensor. The first rumors came courtesy of the Taiwan-based United Daily News (UDN). While the launch of Apple’s next-generation iPhone models is most likely still eight months away, multiple rumors about the so-called “iPhone 6S” have already emerged from the company’s overseas supply chain.
