How will the new iPhone 6 be different to previous models?

If the rumours are true, Apple will unveil its new iPhone 6 in August.

A 4.7-inch screen version of the popular phone will be released first with a 5.5-inch or 5.6-inch model out a month later.

But what will be the main differences between the iPhone 5s and the new iPhone 6.

According to gottabemobile.com, the new images of the phone were leaked today by Sonny Dickson, who has previously leaked information which has been proven correct.

So, if the images are of the new phone, these are some of the new features and changes we can expect.

    The power button is on the side of the phone rather than on the top

    It will have rounded volume buttons

    At 5.5mm, the new iPhone 6 will be thinner than previous versions.

    Some rumours suggest it could even be 26% thinner than the iPhone 5s

    It will have a larger display, with 4.7-inch and possibly 5.6-screen version's thought to be on the way

    Both versions of the phone could have full HD resolution

It is believed a total of 80 million iPhone 6 handsets would be produced this year.

Industry watchers have said increasing the iPhone's screen size from 4 inches would help Apple regain market share from competitors such as Samsung, who they say have responded to consumer desire for more screen size.

Apple has not made any official comment.

Last month, a picture was leaked which apparently showed the new iOS 8 operating system for the rumoured iPhone 6.
