I don't recall the flash being "pill" shaped in any previous leaks.



Also, where's the anti-reflective screen we've heard rumors of :D





:apple:
 
If I get this, I'm getting the 4.7" model. But I'm starting to think they should have made a 4" iPhone 6 too. Down the road (in 2 years) the 5C and 5S will most likely be gone from their lineup, and it's weird to think a 4" model won't be available at some point.

Or maybe in 2 years they'll release a Mini iPhone. Who knows.

Also I really like the look of the silver backplate, but I have no desire to use a white bezel phone. It would have been cool if they made the silver model with a black front bezel.
 
i dont think the guy would show his face in the videos if it was fake, seems very legit. still excited for tuesday to see about the wearable possibitly, or the 5.5 if it exists and any new features that we dont know about.
 
Uh, sure they will. Where else can they go to get near-slave labor? Oh right, probably the US within a couple decades.

Vietnamese are as diligent as the Chinese. The world doesn't have only US and China, you know. Or you don't know?
 
But 5 turned out to be a super gorgeous device unlike the inaccurate leaks.this one if true far from being an attractive and appealing design.also don't forget people freaked out about the 5c and that wasn't really successful sales wise.

Lol...oh boy. The iPhone 5 leaks accurately showed what the device would look like. But just like these iPhone 6 leaks they were poorly lit shots taken with bright flashes that made it inevitably look worse than it would in real life.

On Apple's site, in glossy product shots, the iPhone 5 looked great - and it looks great in person...the same will be true of the iPhone 6.
 
Lol are you kidding? People flipped their ***** about the two-tone back of the iPhone 5 when it leaked. Now everybody thinks the 5/5s is the height of elegance. It's hilarious.

But really though...I'm sure you have better taste than one of the best industrial designers currently working :) You should use that to make millions of dollars!
So because he is one of the best designers he can't make a bad design? He also designed the awful 5c and those ridiculous croc style cases.
remember? or maybe you found them awesome designs because they were designed by him! lmao
Jobs in no longer around to disapprove his design and push him to try harder.
 
Anyone notice the photo's have a yellow tint while the display is clearly white with more blue? That doesn't make sense unless I missed something in photo's 101.

The screen is lit from inside - the light falling onto it has very little impact when it comes to the white balance because of this.
 
At one point I wondered if the bands were thicker because they had antenna wire embedded in them, but no evidence of this has emerged. As for why there are two of them at each end, it's possible that the insert panel is coupled to internal antennas and thus requires full isolation. Neither explanation is complete, but we'll know soon enough. Right now, it's satisfying that the new design is starting to "take", making the 5/5S appear dated to me.

I also thought that some antennas could be embedded into the plastic bands (Feld & Volk breaking them revealed that they are full)

The "insert panels" are actually connected and part of the main back shell, though there are gaps under the sides of the straight line part of the band but not in the middle part. But the top and bottom "end caps" though are indeed insulated from the main shell, as they probably serve for the twin cell antennas like the iPhone 4S/5/5S.

NFC normally needs a large RF-transparent section to be efficient. Since the Apple logo is reportedly solid metal (even if it's liquid metal, it's a myth that this material is RF transparent) I don't think they can put it there.

Apple has a patent to use the top and bottom end cap cell antennas for NFC. I think this is what they're doing here, and that it may require the cell antennas to be further away from the main body to avoid interference because of the lower frequencies used by NFC (13mhz vs. 450mhz+ for cell).

if a 5.5 inch exist with this i must say apple is out take android down with these phones. most people went to android for customization and screen size only and ios now has most customization its had and bigger screens and beautiful devices. what if they surprised us and said they had a new battery that lasted 2 days! one can dream and i know it wont happen but imagine the sales if they were the first to have a phone that lasts for more than a day.
 
They should include jeans w/ this new phone so that the phone can fit in your pants pocket. The 5S is a tight fit when I have to sit down in the car, etc.
 
Leave it to the Chinese to leak the actual working phone. Thanks for completely ruining the surprise...

Ps thanks for the leak lol
 
If this is what the iPhone 6 looks like I will NOT buy it. Those ugly thick antennas and pertruding make the phone hideous and my hands are too small for this screensize anyway

Get ready not to buy it then.
