Not surprising why they are changing their workforce to mechanical robots with the help of Google. Some would say that there would be less suicide rate and less leak. I disagree. There maybe less suicide rate but less leak would only be possible when the production line only comprise of robotic. The future of an industrial nation would find robotic on the production line as human capital moves on to more higher value works. *Soon we may even see robotic at the counter of fast food chains with the rise of minimum wage laws.

If i were Apple, I will have a factory that uses robots to assemble and get foreign talents like US/UK workforce local foremen to run the robots from a command centre. And hire local security guards to patrol the parameter but have no access into the factory.

Also, I will control the warehouse and the delivery vans with foreign security firms as well. :s13:

Just upgraded my 5 to 5s. Haha. Don't like how the current 6 is looking. Esp if the camera lens/module protrudes from the back.

actually Apple (Jobs) already attempted something like this in 1984 during e time of e original Macintosh in Fremont California. u can google for "Macintosh Factory". but it failed n closed down in 92 for a myriad of reasons.

Maybe the demand for the Mac then wasn't high enough but i'm sure iPhones are a different monster altogether! :D

Eh.. 4.7 is screen size measured diagonally leh.. don't anyhow leh..

The easier way to compare is to look at current 4.7 and 5.5 phones in the market and do a rough gauge

find a ruler,
measure the diagonal of your 5S, (it should read 4 inches)
extrapolate it to 4.7"

If the next iPhone does come with 4.7"
It should be the size of HTC One M7
And should be still good for one hand usage
Maybe slightly smaller...

I am also excited about iPhone 6 though I don't use iPhone. Somehow, even Android users are excited about Apple's product launches.

somehow, I don't feel the exciting after Note Edge, NOte 4, LG or other android product launches or smartwatches.

I guess Apple really has that kind of charisma. Steve Jobs had most of it, but saying that the charisma is dead today is an understatement.

I owned the 5 2 months before 5s was released. And all the rumours going on about NFC and OIS in the camera and bigger screen and home integration and iWatch integration and sapphire screen don't entice me. It's all new and likely will take quite some time to gain any traction (e.g. how many people regularly use visa Paywave or what not). I used to be an early adopter but none of these features are attractive enough for me to want it. I changed to the 5s partly cos I like space grey better than I did the silver on my 5.

And hopefully it lasts me 2 solid years where hopefully all these new tech mature and the kinks have ironed out. I'm not even using Touch ID. Just saying.

Aiyah then must as well wait to see if the space gray iPhone 6 looks good a not first mah. Besides, you are already going to pay roughly the same price with roughly the same price plan already..

Still, at least you never considered the android camp. :D

I think the iWatch will definitely get some sort of sneak peak tonight, but...

Anyone thinks Apple will announce just the 4.7in model today, or the 5.5in iPhone 6 "Plus" as well?
