Those aren't Philips screws. Look closer - they're star-shaped holes.So guys, I'm looking at my iPhone 4 and it definitially has visible philips screws in the bottom. And unless the internet is wrong, the iPhone 4s looks the exact same.

As Steve Jobs says it "It looks like *****". And from the start of the iphone 5 rumor this design is ugly. It looks like a brick. A long skinny brick. I liked the tappered design when before the iphone 4S was released. This design looks a lot better than the current one.Image

Is Apple trying to lose to Android on purpose?
This device needed to be extraordinary, only sounds like it's going to be extra ordinary

The more we see the more I don't believe it. Tim states they are doubling down on security and we see more leaked than ever before. I am 100% there new tactic is to release red herrings to keep the news busy rather than let it be all quiet as this tends to cause people to go to extreme lengths to gain any information such as steeling prototypes from staff in bars, by keeping a slow release of info going out it takes the pressure off what's really going on.
And, as other people have pointed out, there's no way apple uses phillips head

I like how they have the screws right by the dock connector
Philips (+) head screws on the bottom?
Somehow I doubt it. Someone made a rough mockup from internet images on the off-chance they're valid. It certainly won't be an Apple sourced test molding.
Philips screws - fakeApple loves their pentalobes.
I can't wait until that giant gaping hole in the bottom gets stuffed to hell with pocket lint...

Well that's odd. I got my iPhone 4S on AT&T's release day and the screw holes are star-shaped.As a man who owns an allan/hex set of sockets sockets, as well as a torx socket set for both regular and inverse, I know what a Philips head looks like. I also have above average vision, so that aint the problem either
I would not doubt that Apple used two different types of screws on these things, but I have one of the earliest iPhone 4s, and it is certainly a regular (albeit tiny) Phillips head screw.
