Claimed 5.5-inch iPhone 6 picture shows off new design

A claimed image of the heavily rumoured 5.5-inch iPhone 6 has leaked, showing off a heavily revised handset design.
One of two iPhone 6 models expected to launch later this year, the 5.5-inch iPhone has been tipped to line up alongside a 4.7-inch offering as a direct rival to the likes of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Note 4 phablet.

iPhone 6 leaks have been ramping up in recent weeks with a number of early looks at the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S5 and HTC One M8 rival emerging.
It is expected that the iPhone 6 will touch down this September or October, with the 5.5-inch model hitting retailers shortly after its 4.7-nich sibling.
Both devices are expected to boast QHD displays alongside a revised camera and new A8 processing unit.
