I would guess, that the logo only glows, when the backlight of the Display is also on. Just like in a MacBook. That way no extra battery is consumed.
Got a tip for us?

Alleged iPhone 6 Back Cover Shown Off in New Photo

Except, unlike in a Macbook, all the internal hardware of the iPhone is between the display and Apple logo.
The point of the tru-tone flash wasn't to have two individual flashes. It was to be able to dynamically adjust the color of the flash to each photo. Moving forward would be combining those two flashes into one singular unit that can adjust it's color dynamically. This IS moving forward.
This. Combining the current two-tone into a single light. Say it with me now, "innovation".
I'm sad to have to agree,,,,,,,,Man, If thats accurate, its gonna be one frickin' ugly looking iPhone. Cases are a wonderful thing!!
I hope Apple won't stop producing 4" phones.
I use "normal" pants, and not skater clothes, fitting this into pants seems to be a challenge itself.
I use a phone with a 4.7" screen currently and wear "Normal" (including a suit everyday) pants and don't have any trouble with it in my front pockets. It appears the 6 is going to be longer than my current phone but still doesn't seem it will be an issue.

If you really think this is a problem, you're either a petite female or wearing pants that are far too small.
THE APPLE LOGO WILL NOT GLOW. That cut out will be filled with a black plastic apple logo insert which serves the purpose of allowing Wifi signals to pass through the aluminium body of the phone.
<------ The Mac mini has this, and the iPad3 (and 4?) also. If you disassemble the mac mini the black plastic Apple logo can be popped out revealing an apple shaped cut out in the metal.

Not all of us. I don't blindly believe everything the rumour train says. I think it's a possibility and leave it at that.
High Percentage That's It's Not Apple's, If There's No Wow-Factor & Elegance
Hi. It looks good but Apple's requirement is it should be above good (aka: great). There's no wow-factor and elegance which is what Steve Jobs described a great looking product. It's probably a China clone. There are no FCC and things like that on the cover.
Have a great upcoming sunday mass/great upcoming weekend. It's good WWDC is almost here, so thankful to Apple.

Wow, are you still under the delusion that Apple makes stuff for your pleasure and you should be grateful... Sorry to burst your bubble fella, but they make stuff to sell..PERIOD!.. they rely on you more than the other way round..
In a Macbook, the logo is on the back of the thin display. Nothing to block the light. The iPhone on the other hand is cram packed with battery and electronics. No room to have empty space between the display on the front and gratuitous illuminated logo on the back.
The logo will not be lit.

I personally don't need a large phone. The 4" display is reasonably comfortable. I have an iPad Air if I want a bigger display.
I think the design looks cheap compared to the elegance of the iPhone 4/4s/5/5s.
I'll wait to see if they come out with other features. I may not upgrade although I need to get a phone anyway planning to switch our other line from Verizon to Tmobile.
Um, no...
You must be new to this. Welcome.----------
Didn't get rid of it, just re-engineered it. Relax.
This is the most ridiculous overstatement. I mean, who really buys iPhones as holiday gifts?? Once your mobile carrier contract is up, you upgrade your phone plain and simple.
The recent September release schedule may sync up nice with back-to-school and holiday season, but it's more to coincide with Apple's Chinese manufacturing cycles.
