A new report from TrendForce predicts that the upcoming iPhone 6s and 6s Plus will be updated with 2GB of LPDDR4 RAM, 32GB of storage, and Force Touch. Both the 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch models are expected to begin mass production next month.According to the latest reporting by the global research firm TrendForce, both the 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch versions of the next iPhone will enter mass production in June. They will be shipped in the third quarter, with the quarterly shipments projected to reach 24 million units. By the fourth quarter, the next iPhone will be released in greater quantities with the estimated quarterly shipments surpassing 50 million. The new model will help drive the 2015 shipments of all iPhones to go over 230 million, resulting in a yearly shipment growth of 20%. The next iPhone is also estimated to represent more than 35% of this year’s total iPhone shipments. TrendForce says the biggest highlight for the next iPhone will be Apple’s shift to LPDDR4 DRAM from LPDDR3. The iPhone is expected to get double the RAM, going from 1GB to 2GB. Using capacities of 25nm or 20nm processes as references, the iPhone 6s with its 2GB of memory is estimated to consume an additional 20K wafers per month. Worldwide DRAM capacity is at around 1,080K wafers per month, so an additional 2% of it will go to the next iPhone.Share Article:Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google Plus, Email, Reddit, Digg, Delicious, StumbleUponFollow iClarified:Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google Plus, Newsletter, App Store, YouTubeAdvertise Here
