Logic board for Apple iPhone 6 is spotted, reveals support for NFC and Wi-Fi 802.11ac

Out of France Saturday morning, comes a leaked picture alleged to show the logic board for the upcoming Apple iPhone 6. This appears to be for the 4.7 inch version of the handset. The board does reveal some clues about the next iteration of Apple's iconic smartphone, such as its ability to support NFC, along with the faster Wi-Fi 802.11ac technology.

And while the board looks similar to the one that graces the inside of the Apple iPhone 5s, there are some subtle differences, including a longer piece that is situated where the top of the device would be. That would seem to be another confirmation that the iPhone 6 will employ a larger screen.

Screw holes in the logic board match up with previous leaks that we've seen of the iPhone 6 rear shell, confirming the authenticity of both parts. We expect to see the 4.7 inch Apple iPhone 6 unveiled in September with the 5.5 inch variant getting introduced the following month.
