The launch of every new iPhone is eagerly awaited in the technology world, and while Apple is incredibly secretive about its new devices, rumours of its design and capabilities and even supposed images of the new model inevitably creep out onto the internet.
The iPhone 6 is expected to be revealed on Tuesday, here’s a round-up of what you can expect from Apple’s new smartphone.

Rumours of an iWatch as well. Can't say I care about either.

Rumours of an iWatch as well. Can't say I care about either.

My son who's a self-professed technology geek has a Google watch. He was demonstrating its capabilities the other day when he and his wife were here for Fathers' Day. I have to admit it's pretty impressive.
I wouldn't buy one but the voice recognition is amazing. And it didn't need training to his voice or his Australian accent.

So, basically anything from a simple "capital of France?" to "please select the shortest route home" comes up with an answer on his phone within seconds. Oh. And "what is 470 multiplied by 63?" No problem at all.

My Moto G smartphone does that sort of thing very well, not that I use it for that very often.  In the old days voice recognition software didn't always handle my Lancastrian accent some of the time.   I suppose having an 'extension' of the phone on your wrist could be 'handy' if you use that function a lot.

Though it will make you look a bit geeky.
