For the past couple of weeks it has been well documented that both the 4.7-inch iPhone 6 and the 5.5-inch 'iPhone 6 Plus' will be announced at the same event on September 9th. But while it has long since been expected that the smaller device would hit the retail market later on in September, the larger iPhone, we were told, was subject to delay and wouldn't arrive until October. Now, though, a new report has waded in on the eve of the big keynote to suggest that both next-gen iPhones will be released at the same time, with early adopters able to get their hands on either from September 19th.

Since it emerged that there'd be two configurations of the iPhone 6 - a 4.7-inch model and a larger, 5.5-inch variant - fans and commentators have offered numerous suggestions as to how Apple plans to differentiate between them through naming. There's been a lingering suspicion that the handset may follow the iPad's lead with 'iPhone Air', as well as the very plausible 'iPhone 6L', but according to information obtained by a fairly reliable source, it'll be called the 'iPhone 6 Plus'.
