If this is real, it seems like the home button which is now integrated into the screen takes up a portion of the screen on the bottom. Not sure how I feel after watching this, but it's best to wait until the 12th. If anything I know the 7s or whatever they are calling it will be available. I should be getting my Note 8 later this week which I can keep or return once the announcement is made.

It's fake. Look at 1:16 on the second video. There is a page that says "iPhone" when the user tries to access the recently taken picture.

Also, the notch doesn't even take up screen space (the screen starts BELOW all the sensors). Same with the first video. These are all fakes.
 
are we kidding with this? lightening EarPods aren't packaged like that anymore, iPhones aren't wrapped in cheap plastic, and this clearly the box from a matte black iPhone 7
 
Most likely a clone running heavily skinned version of iOS

Edit :- I checked the Serial number of this device and Apple website doesn't recognize it, So it's totally Fake!

This is 100% fake. It doesn't even follow the iPhone 8's basic shape (the notch).

could be real.. may be an internal build. the notch isn't final, so we don't really know anything until apple reveals it.
 
I can't see how it's real considering iOS 11 beta isn't even at the Release Candidate stage yet.

They have to load some Version of the software on the phones that have already been made. Not saying this is real, but they have at least some version of a GM on the phones that have already been manufactured.

How could anyone think that’s real, there is so much wrong in that video it’s not even funny...well a little funny.
 
Insanely fake. You think a brand new phone is gonna take 5 hours to start up, camera app took awhile to load, slow choppy movement with the camera... lol
 
Though everyone says its fake, I am glad it doesn't have the cutout at least which I prefer for usability at this point unless somebody says more on how that design could actually work. Aside from how ugly it looks compared to the latest Samsung or LG phones.
 
I think this is Real but not Special Version

it may be 7S

the 8 much diff and more beautiful design:apple:
 
100% real Chinese fake

Look at the status bar of your iPhone. See how it takes about 1/8" of screen real estate? What if you put it in two spots beside the sensors and earpiece at the top of the phone? It gives you space you otherwise would not have.

Fake!! Or I hope so because it looks stupid and messy where the virtual home button, (rumoured to not exist on the iPhone) and the camera shutter button next to each other with no gap!! Not what Apple would do.
