There's loads of videos. Including the photo he took that has the meta data for an iPhone 6 back camera. But it could be photo-shopped still.
I agree that I he competators have been making very good hardware lately. The only drawback (for me) is that they are running androids, which is a deal breaker for me.
The iPhone 6 is such hotly awaited release that it's impossible to contain leaks. It's gonna be the most popular iPhone yet - millions of people were holding off until a larger screen was available. Granted, I wasn't one of them but to many size matter the most.
I didn't mean that. What I meant was that the bluetooth icon (next to the battery indicator) appears after he unlocks it, which I thought doesnt happen. But I just tried it on my iPad and it happens on that too after leaving it on standby for a long time.
I think it's real now.
I don't understand in what it makes it easier to use it really
If you grip the phone slightly higher then you can reach all the icons with your thumb because they are closer together. Just a theory. Why else would the vertical space between the icons differ between the video and the photos here?
My impression from the schematics and close-up photos is that the "insert panels" are attached to the main body of the shell with an ultra-thin sandwiched layer of insulating material. I could be wrong about this, but if correct it would raise the possibility of them being used as the cellular antennas and the "end-caps" for NFC (or vice versa). Two isolating breaks, two antennas?
Honestly though, who really cares? (besides Apple). Internet has been showing leaks non-stop and you want this person to pay for taking out the surprise for you? ...
It's real. Some (Chinese) one got a hold of a prototype and bragged. Hope he got canned ASAP.
I will get the phone, no doubt, for the obvious reason of mobile payments and slightly bigger screen. But other than that i am SO disappointed in Jonny Ive.
With all the technology and finesse Apple has (or used to have) they came up with the same huge bezel around the phone between the edge and screen and ear piece and screen or home button and screen.
Ridiculous to say the least. They were so busy making the phone thinner that they lost their sense for design completely. Not to mention the antenna bands on the backside are hideous.
Personally i think if it was only the iPhone coming out, the Apple stock would crash like 20-30%, luckily they will announce the iWatch and perhaps even the new updated iPads, it's their only chance to convince shareholders of continued money coming in.
So to sum it all up: 100% disappointment so far. I hope none of this is true, and i hope they will reveal a whole different look and this was just a bait (or a bad dream)...
See ya on Tuesday

I mean, it looks alright but not as near as nice as the iPhone 5. Those thick antenna lines are awful whatever way you look at it, no idea why they decided to go with that design. It could have looked a lot nicer IMO. Also the bezel size could have been much thinner.
No doubt the black one will be my pick.
Am I the only one who thinks its fake? The icons look too close together .... would apple really make a larger display, only to cram more icons on there? That'd be a first, given the iPads have plenty of space between icons...
I wish they'd just ditch this obsession to keep the bezels symmetrical and make the top one the size it should be (slightly thicker than the speakerphone/camera assembly) instead of making it look ridiculous just to keep the thing the same size as the home button area.
Yesterday, I picked up my friends Galaxy S 5 to see what it would be like to try and use it with one hand. Surprisingly... it wasn't a problem.
As for the comments a larger phone won't fit in your pocket... Come on. Be reasonable.

It has nothing to do with us. If no one would have leaked the info that apple was working on making a watch, samsung / lg / motorolla would never have went all-in on making smart watches in the first place, and thats exactly what its about... Having an edge about a product segment, just like the first iPhone came out. Capish?
Im happy no one was able to leak any info about the look of the iWatch so far.
