5 Defining Ways Apple's Iphone 6 Can Transform A Business Model


A number of recent reports have suggested a variety of different resolutions for Apple's larger 5.5-inch iPhone 6. Though a lot of critics are eavesdropped, it is expected to transform the business model.

Apple’s "Fab Fall" series of product launches will revolve around the iPad and what analysts hope is an iTV even though app and music revenue tops $10 billion annually.

Here's a look at five ways Apple's model could shift...

Larger the Screen Size, More the Value:

In precise, large iPhones could result in more high-value applications as well as revenue growth for Apple's software business. With better NFC and sensors, it is rational to expect significantly more utility from a broad variety of apps. The company was able to sell $10 billion of apps in 2013- mostly simple games on relatively small screens- how much more will the new hardware and sensors enable growth?

Ads:

 Apple has started an ad business but hasn't really pushed it. Coverage from desktops to tablets to phablets to phones to TVs and watches, it offers programs that would appeal to big advertising players like Amazon. Any ability to move the needle on advertising could diversify Apple's revenue base.

Cloud services:

 This hardware platform is to roll out a bevy of services, notably iCloud. It has to reverse a slide in software and services revenue per user; part of the fall could be attributed to iTunes.

Ecommerce fees:

One of the greatest aspects in wearable Apple is that it'll enable NFC payments and mobile payments. If reports are true, Apple has lined up credit card partners and will serve as a wallet juggernaut which eventually tempts merchants to use whatever mobile-payment platform it provides. Although the comparison isn't perfect, more ecommerce can via its wearable and iBeacon technology.

More Revenue from the Enterprise:

Another thread to the launch of big-screen iPhone 6 devices is been talking to payments networks. 

Merchants will be accepting mobile payments at the low fees assigned to transactions using an actual plastic credit card instead of the higher charges presently vivid in online payments.

As of now, the critics have revealed that app developers can move the needle diversifying Apple's revenue base.
