First iPhone 5 Unboxing Photos Reveal Packaging Layout and EarPods Travel Case

smaller plug?

Is it just me, or does the plug seem to be smaller? Might be wrong but the one delivered with iphone 4/4S wouldn't fit in the box this way...

It has....depending on where its coming from. If from Foxconn, its probably in Anchorage, Alaska (like my wife's) whereas mine started in Nashville, Tennessee and is still there.

Use the phone number you put down for your billing info and enter your country/zip code on www.ups.com under track by reference. Should be able to find it there.

Great advice! My order still said preparing for shipment, but UPS shows that's in Louisville by way of Zengzhou, Hong Kong, Incheon, and Anchorage. :)
 
all boned up over here`

Well Great

I was just going to get up and walk around and then i saw a post about packaging layout and now i won't be standing up any time soon.

TRAVEL CASE!!!!! WOOHOO!!!! BEST COMPANY EVER!!!
 
Reflection at the top of the device is opposite on the purported box and the image of the box straight from Apple's site.

Ill say it.

This is fake.

The back of the phone doesnt have legal text on it. cant be real.
 
If Jobs were to magically wake up, Ive would be fired along with about 60% of the campus. Probably the worst-looking iPhone ever. In fact I generally think Apple is at risk of losing its edge at lest when it comes to design.

It will probably land in kentucky soon, and because it says Friday by end of day, there's virtually no shot at early delivery. Others have dates of Thursday by end of day, but may or may not be held back. I checked mine and it says friday by end of day as well.

This.

Mine is in Kentucky, tracked it that far. I think Fedex takes it from here/there.

Umm the earpods packaging shouldn't be a surprise.

they've had it on their website since announcing the phone.

It's a surprise because the original headphones in other iPhone boxes do not come with a carrying case. But, if you buy a replacement pair at Apple (the same ones), they come with a case in its retail packaging.

EDIT: I misread your post, you don't mean for the retail headphones either, but the actual headphones. Thanks for pointing this out.

so the protective plastic can change the font?
And it seems this will be one of the first Apple products without fcc and legal stuff on the back....

I don't see a change in the font. All I see is an air bubble surrounding the word iphone. Plus the camera they're taking the picture with is terrible so you most likely can't see the small writing underneath the plastic.

I guess Apple could sell you an iPhone 2G for an iPhone 5

LOL Don't be such a n00b.
 
this is not a fake . All the legal stuff is there it is under the protective covering you can see it if you blow up the picture a bit. The bubbles in back are from the covering also. It looks as this was taken at a apple store look at the table it is on.
 
Again, just compare it to the Images on the Apple Site (Features) and look at the font. This device just looks like one of the old prototypes we have seen leaking. And also notice how the glow effect on the Apple logo is different

^This is what the person mean by calling it fake. Everyone can see the plastic.

He was pointing out the missing FCC legal stuff Like person says quote

The legal stuff and the logos are probably being obscured by the protective plastic...

I still call fake. it wouldnt hide it that much.
 
I swear, the F, A, K, and E keys on some member's keyboards must be so worn down...

It's called the protective film that comes on it hasn't been taken off...
 
FAKE!! The design of the box and iPhone are completely unlike apple. This fake is so horrible it reminds me of a cheap chinese knock off iPhone 1.

that black box REALLY takes me back to the original 2007 iPhone....man i'm getting excited (and its been a while since i've truly been excited for an iPhone release)!

The original iPhone is still alive right now in my pocket, soon to be replaced with my highly anticipated iPhone 5–bittersweet.
