Apple gets government approval to sell Apple iPhone 6 in Thailand
While we await the September 9th unveiling of the 4.7 inch Apple iPhone 6, the Thailand government approved two variants of the device. The country's National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission has approved two versions of the Apple iPhone 6. The two versions of the iPhone were given identifying numbers of A1586 and A1524.

Apple had filed with the agency on August 5th, and received approval on August 8th. The August filing date in Thailand could indicate an earlier launch date in the country this year. Last year, Apple did not file with the commission for approval of the Apple iPhone 5s and Apple iPhone 5c until September 25th, and the pair did not start shipping until a month later.

Just because two variants received identifying numbers, does not mean that there will be a 4.7 inch iPhone 6 and a 5.5 inch phablet version of the handset. The tech titan ships six different versions of  the iPhone 5s, for example, depending on the region, and the network being employed.
