Rumor has Apple iPhone 6s sporting display with 488ppi pixel density, 460ppi for iPhone 6s Plus

The Weibo account of Chinese serial leaker @KJuma contains a couple of items related to the upcoming unveiling of the Apple iPhone 6s and Apple iPhone 6s Plus. According to one diagram on the page, the Apple iPhone 6s will feature a resolution of 1125 x 2000 on its 4.7-inch screen, which works out to a pixel density of 488ppi. The Apple iPhone 6s Plus will carry a 1242 x 2208 resolution, according to this rumor, resulting in a 460ppi pixel density.

To put both of these figures in perspective, the current Apple iPhone 6 features a 750 x 1334 resolution (326ppi). The Apple iPhone 6 Plus offers an FHD resolution of 1080 x 1920, for a pixel density of 401ppi. Previous speculation had Apple keeping the resolution the same on the new handsets.

The Weibo site also contained an alleged Geekbench score for the iPhone 6s, reportedly done on Thursday. It showed the phone running the A9 SoC with the CPU clocked at 1.8GHz. It also revealed that 2GB of RAM was employed by the phone. The single-core score was 2248, while the multi-core tally came in at 4036.

As usual, in a situation like this, we suggest taking this information with a grain of salt. The good news is that we don't have long to wait for all to be revealed. This Wednesday, Apple will unveil its new products at Bill Graham Auditorium in San Francisco. As we told you last night, security was tight as Apple started hanging banners and making last-minute changes for the September 9th event.


Thanks for the tip!
