Based on how Apple has been naming their products over the past few years, it is largely believed that this year’s iPhone could be known as the iPhone 6s. Whether or not that is true remains to be seen, which we suppose come 9th of September all will be revealed. However in the meantime, it seems that at least one company isn’t too fond of the name.
This comes in the form of an ad agency in New York who calls themselves 6S Marketing. It seems that the company is hoping that Apple won’t name the next iPhone the iPhone 6s. However this isn’t so much a legal matter, but rather the agency who appears to be trying to capitalize on all the hype surrounding Apple’s upcoming iPhones.
Speaking to Vancity Buzz, the agency’s founder and president Chris Breikss said, “We’re not mad. Our brand hasn’t been destroyed, because I don’t think anyone is going to confuse a cellphone maker with a digital agency, but our name has lost the luster a little bit.” He also adds, “We think there’s a chance it won’t be called [the 6S], but if it is we want to be like ‘Hey we’re the little guy, don’t forget about us,’. There’s more to our name that just a model number.”
It seems unlikely that Apple will call it the iPhone 7, at least based on the company’s history, but what do you guys think? Will we be looking at the 6s or the 7 this year?
