Apple is expected to announce the iPhone 6s in a little less than three months and, if the latest rumor is to be believed, the Cupertino giant has already started an early production run for two models.

Citing sources familiar with the matter, Bloomberg reported over the weekend that not only has Apple already started production on two models, the 4.7 inch iPhone 6s and 5.5 inch iPhone 6s Plus, but that the new iPhones feature Force Touch technology.

According to Bloomberg’s sources, Apple is slated to start volume manufacturing of the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus as early as July.

Force Touch was first introduced on the Apple Watch and more recently on the new MacBook. Apple describes the technology as using “tiny electrodes around the flexible Retina display to distinguish between a light tap and a deep press, and trigger instant access to a range of contextually specific controls.”

Force Touch capable iPhone now almost a certainty

This is not the first time rumors have suggested that the next iPhone will feature Force Touch. Apple has been working with suppliers to get the technology into handsets as far back as 2013 and, in March this year, The Wall Street Journal reported it had learned from sources in Apple’s supply chain that the next iPhone will include Force Touch. In April, KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who has a respectable track record at reporting on Apple’s upcoming plans, told investors that the next iPhone will include Force Touch technology similar to that in the Apple Watch.

Recently sources familiar with the development of iOS 9, Apple’s newly announced mobile operating system, told 9to5Mac that iOS 9 is Force Touch ready, indicating that the feature will likely be included in the iPhone 6s models slated for release alongside the new operating system in September.

Same design as iPhone 6, potentially same limited supply

Bloomberg’s sources claim the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus will have the same exterior design as their predecessors and that this is likely to lead to a hassle-free final assembly process. However, they go on to caution that production volume of the Force Touch-capable iPhones may be impacted by the number of displays available from the supply chain.
