"We also forecast the new model will add a new look, a golden casing, and a new option for larger 128GB storage, to offer greater differentiation from iPhone 5," said Kuo.
The news follows rumours last month that Apple's next-generation iPhone will include a fingerprint sensor, which could be used for unlocking the homescreen or confirming identity for payment from the App Store or other outlets.
If the rumours are true, the latest iPhone will be the first Apple product to feature such a sensor. Motorola released the Atrix 4G in 201, which featured a biometric fingerprint sensor, but customers reported mixed levels of success with the scanner, with many saying the sensor failed to recognise their fingerprint.
Apple is expected to unveil the iPhone 5S at a media event on September 10. The company is also believed to be near to announcing the release of a 'budget' iPhone designed to target developing markets.
