Market analysts have predicted that Apple's 2014 marquee handset, dubbed as iPhone 6, will feature a significant upgrade from its predecessor. Now, scoop from an trusted Australian tipster has surfaced online corroborating previous reports.

Popular Apple devices spy, Sonny Dickson has revealed in his series of Tweets that the Apple iPhone 6 will boast of Ultra-Retina display with a pixel density of 389 ppi (pixels per inch) and run on A8 processor having a staggering CPU speed of 2.6GHz, faster than the recently unveiled Samsung Galaxy S5's Qualcomm Snapdragon 801chipset, which clocks 2.5GHz speed.
