Alleged iPhone 6 Prototype Depicted in New Images

So again same 58.6mm like iphone 4 and 5 but again more tall? 123mm to 129mm it will look ugly and not like in these photos. This device is not bezel free!!!!!!
 
controlled leak for sure. Apple made it look like an S4 so Samsung couldn't steal any new ideas for their S5. Very clever really. Watch samsung either come out with the same design as S4 or something else just as bad. Then the iPhone will release and all the haters will go quiet.

it will be very clever and nice

but lets face it, if is the real thing, i think there is no 4.7" device as compact as this at 129x63.8x7
 
This is obvious fake, but nicely made though :)

- the font (im convinced apple wont go back to regular Myriad)
- the copied texture overlay of martin hajeks render
- The fact that it is unibody with no place to emit radio signals.

3 reasons why Im 100% sure its fake.
 
I hope they don't make it any thinner. I would much prefer the same thickness. That way, in addition to a larger surface area from a slightly larger phone and screen size, the battery can be that much bigger and last even longer. If they make the phone taller and wider, sure it makes sense that they could fit a larger battery in. But if they make it thinner, the thinness of the battery could mean that the overall battery capacity won't really change all that much.
 
Sonny Dickson basically admits the gold phone is fake.

So you want a battery to last say 13-15 hours instead of say 10-12? You are going to charge it overnight in either circumstance... If you could get 2 full days of use by keeping the thickness and adding more battery then you have a case, but that certainly wouldn't happen.

Unibody Liquidmetal would allow for antennas, and in fact it can act as the antenna. Whether or not they are able to bring that to market yet is unknown. Here is a link from a few years back:

Its a shrunk down iPad AIR..hardly anything original on part of the design team. I'd rather take other concepts listed earlier..this almost has to be fake for that reason alone :D

I agree. Apple did never use the iPad Design for the iPhone. The iPhone had always a unique Design and I think the new one will also have a new design that's not similar to the iPad.
 
There's be problems holding the phone with that design... too similar to the iPod touch as well.

Are you Mr. battery expect? Didn't think so. Do some research. Phones already exist with similar thickness, dual core CPUs, ~4.7" screens that last 2 full days of average use. An iPhone in its current state definitely won't make it. But similar phones do.
 
you all know it's not fake, so don't live in a lie. This is what the new iphone will look like so get used to it
 
It looks too detailed to be fake, but at the same time it would be foolish of Apple to be stamping it's logo on the back of prototypes. Also, that unsymmetrical front face looks very un-Apple like.

If it really is fake than kudos to whoever built it. Very professional.
 
I had a feeling these were fake the moment I clapped eyes on them.

Why? The design language is the same as the 5, 5S. History has shown that with each major number change, 4, 5, etc the design also changes. The 4 and 4S has the steel band sandwiched between two pieces of glass, the 5 and 5S had the unibody with tapered edge. However the phone in the photos has the same look as the current phones (unibody with tapered edge).

SO, Id be expecting the iPhone 6 to have a NEW chassis design.
 
they look like a crap samedung device,fake or not,
I hope the iphone6 doesn't resemble this.

that prototype image going around also looks more like a samedung than iphone.


they will not lose the home button.
