According to the latest reports, the iPhone 6c will hit store shelves before summer. It has been tipped to feature an A9 processor, 16GB of internal storage, 2GB of RAM and a 1,642 mAh battery.

Other rumors suggest that the lineup of 4-inch iPhone 6c devices (which will likely mirror the iPhone 6 in terms of design) will be available in a range of colors similar to that of the iPod touch. On Sunday, 9to5Mac published several mockup images of what the device might look like, courtesy of artist Ferry Passchier:
