Looking good iPhone 6
After 2 years of of the 5 and 5S, I did think that the design would be altered with things such as an almost invisible bezel, super retina display, and front facing speakers...
That being said, in the land of patent lawsuits and profit, it is also not that surprising that overall it keeps it's iconic iphone looks (same way in which you recognize a Nokia or a Galaxy phone).
All they really had to provide people was a bigger screen for people to say, "Ok I'll buy it because it's different." It'll sell like crazy.
It's not the "perfect phone" that I want, but I'm an iOS/OS X guy and they practically already have my money. The 4.7" looks bigger than I thought it would, and that's a good thing.
Here's hoping the 6S is a polished version of this phone with increased RAM and a bigger battery -- unless this one already has those things which would be awesome sauce.

The more i look at the iPhone 6 the more i beginning to think hmmm maybe the Note 4 will be a much better option for this year at least.
Reason being 5.7" QHD display
3GB of ram
SD card slot for music and movies ect
Notification LED
Slim bezels
16mp OIS with real time HDR & 4K video & F1.9 lens
Decent build & at last better looking
And finally....cheaper than the iPhone 6
Luckily I have plenty paid apps on Android aswell as iOS, so that wouldn't be a problem, and i think i stick with the 5S as a night out and work's phone, until Apple buck up their idea's and give us a phone worthy of the price premium they charge which the 6 just isn't it im afraid.
Maybe the 6S will change my mind again we have to see.

Also, the iPhone is not running iOS 8. Below are screenshots of the settings menu, one from the video and one from my 5S running the latest iOS 8 beta. If this was legit, why would it be running iOS 7 (iOS 8 would surely be tested and shipped on new devices)?

Or you could just wait for the real iphone 6 to be revealed, and decide from there.
Do you think the, say, font on the iPhone logos on those two phones look exactly the same?
Now that there is no evading the truth any more the sheep will follow
Do you feel better about yourself when calling other people sheeps or look down on their opinions?
Not a good size for the back pocket of someone's skinny jeans. I showed a woman I know a mockup photo of a iPhone 6 next to a iPhone 5/5s (her current phone) and she's actually scared about buying one now. She asked me if she could still get an iPhone 6 similar in size to her current iPhone.
I'm so tired of people mentioned RAM in a phone they haven't even seen or used. You will sit out this one and hope the next iPhone has more RAM? Sorry, but GFY. That'd be like saying before the latest redesigned Nissan GT-R came out in 2009, "oh it's gonna have a V6... guess I'll get the new Mustang since that has a V8"... specs are just one tiny part of the whole story. It's annoying to constantly hear these things. Also... it's a PHONE. What the hell are you people doing on PHONES to think you need 3 GB of RAM?????
That what I plan on doing before i make the ultimate decision to switch back to Android as my daily, maybe Apple will surprise us all next Tuesday.
I think that video is of something completely different. It was posted a few days ago, and the flash is different to this set of new photos (can be compared at 0:40 in the video).
Also, it appears to be running a skinned version of Android - from the brief glimpse of the OS on this phone, all the fonts and icons seem to match with iOS.
There are some irregularities - the clock and music icons are odd - but it's definitely a new, better clone if indeed that's what it turns out to be.

Yeah there are countless 'mistakes' in that vid that makes it evidently a fake.
There are such good fakes out there I'm begining to think all these leaks are baseless and the final product will be almost completely different.
I don't know if its real or fake but I really like what I'm seeing. Those antenna bands don't bother me. If it is fake the real will definitely be even better.
