iphone 6s featuring force touch is reportedly starts production by Apple

Force Touch iPhone 6 and 6 Plus

If all things go as expected, later this year Apple is expected to introduce yet another member to the iPhone lineup. That device is expected to be called the iPhone 6s.
Of course, that’s just one of the two hypothetical handsets, considering that Apple is more than likely going to introduce a follow-up to the iPhone 6 Plus as well. Now, according to a report from Bloomberg, Apple has gone ahead and kicked off the manufacturing of the iPhone 6s, which the report states will indeed feature Force Touch.
Force Touch was introduced with the Apple Watch last year, and allows for another level of interactivity with apps and other interface elements. Apple brought the technology to the new 12-inch Retina MacBook as well, along with the 13-inch Retina MacBook Pro.
This isn’t the first time that Force Touch has been mentioned alongside the next iPhone. In fact, it’s been a pretty common rumor/report since January of this year. In February, for instance, it was reported that Apple would include a Force Touch-equipped display, but lack a dual-camera setup. After that, a pair of reports in June indicated that the iPhone 6s would be slightly thicker and heavier than the current iPhone 6 due to the inclusion of Force Touch; and, that Apple recently ordered flexible circuit boards for the next iPhone.
Considering the timing, it’s not all that surprising that Apple would have kicked off manufacturing for its next iPhones, but it’s still good to hear that, without any actual confirmation of course, that things seem to be on track.
