Now that the iOS 7 has been revealed with numerous new features, showing a complete overhaul in the software design of the iPhone and iPad, rumors swirl that it’s official release this fall will coincide with the announcement of the iPhone 5s and iPhone 6.

According to a report by the International Business Times, the tech giant will skip the low cost iPhone 5S release date to make way for the launch of the iPhone 6.

The iPhone 6 will feature a 4.8 inch screen display and will be the upgraded version of the iPhone 5, contrary to the rumored “budget phone” iPhone 5S.

Speaking with CNET, Glen Yeung of Citi Research said that he expects the handsets to be released with the 4.8 inch screen size early 2014. He claims that the much-rumored iPhone 5S “has been delayed by two to four weeks.” He also said that he is uncertain if Apple can meet a September launch, which could be the reason why they dropped the iPhone 5S release.

Other reports back up the claim that Apple will drop the iPhone 5S, breaking the tradition of launching “Plan B” phones.

Will Stabley of Stabley Times says that there are justifiable reasons that indicate Apple may break the tradition this year.

Five years ago in 2008, Apple dumped its rubber and metal iPhone and went to the plastic 3G iPhone. The company applied the same design again the third year.

Apple fans took that as an indication that the upcoming upgraded design, or the iPhone 4, was behind schedule.

Many note that the release of the iPhone 4S was due to the delayed development and production of the iPhone 5.

Stabley said that Apple has been trying to get rid of the S schedule for years as they aim to release phones with higher upgrades, leading him to believe that the Cupertino-based company will release the iPhone 6 this year instead of an iPhone 5S.

Lately, however, a series of leaked iPhone 5S from Taiwan shows that the model maybe going into production. It is reported to have the same screen size as the current iPhone 5.

French site Nowhereelse published the photos, as did Chinese-microblogging site Weibo.

Rumors point that the seventh iteration of the device will include a Retina or IGZO screen display, A7 quad core chip processor, iOS 7, 128GB internal storage, 13 mega-pixel camera, and longer battery life, according to the Business Times.

The lack of NFC support for the latest iPhone model, iPhone 5, was one of the biggest criticisms directed at Apple.

The Plan B phone iPhone 5S was rumored to have a plastic casing, 4-inch screen display, dual core processor and 8-megapixel camera, according to reports.

Many thought that the phones will be announced at Apple CEO Tim Cook’s keynote speech at WWDC 2013 Monday. Its absence was in line with an earlier announcement from Cook that Apple will not launch new products before the end of the year.

After the release of iOS 7, rumors point to a fall launch date that will coincide with the software’s release.

In keeping with tradition and known company behavior, Apple does not comment or discuss any new launches prior to the official launch date when the tech press and consumers actually see the product.
