Apple is notoriously tight-lipped when it comes to giving out details of new devices to the public before they are officially unveiled. It has become a pastime for people in the technology world to make guesses - educated or far-fetched - about what the latest Apple product will look like. For the past few months, Apple has given out some information on what they have coming down the line, the Apple TV and new CarPlay system among them, but have not released anything about the next version of the iPhone.

So what do experts think we can expect from the company regarding the iPhone 6? Here are a few popular theories:

• Name: Although it is very likely the next smartphone will be called the iPhone 6, some think that Apple might drop the number, as they have with some of their recent products such as the iPad mini. Whether Apple wants to play around with the name is something that we will have to wait to see.
• Release date: If history is anything to go on, the next iPhone will be released in either September or October of this year. Although iPhones used to be released in the summer, for the past few years the company has waited until the fall to unveil their new products. Although some believe they could return to the summer release, Apple has not indicated either way.
• Software upgrades: According to reports, Apple is going to release the iOS 8 operating system with the iPhone 6. Because of the imminent release of CarPlay, 9to5Mac believes the company will have an upgraded maps feature to ensure that it works seamlessly with the smart car systems.
