Apple's iPhone 6, which made its debut in September 2014, came in 16GB, 64GB and 128GB internal storage option. The device is now available in a 32GB-based gold hued body in select Asian markets including China, Taiwan, and India (via Amazon). 

American technology major Apple, which was rumoured to hold a product launch event in March to unveil a new line of iPad and iPhone SE series, has instead quietly introduced the new iPhone 6 storage model exclusively in Asia. Now, the new iPhone 6 (32GB) is available via Taiwan Mobile, reported 9to5Mac. Except the storage, rest of the features are the same as seen in the original model.
