Suffer Android? Talk about first world problems... Boohoo I have to use Android, my life is so hard
I have to click twice to get to a setting I only have to click one to get to in iOS. The last thing I need you doing is running around here making light of my terrible plight.

Apple leaks have been going on since practically the dawn of time. You get a select few insiders getting a first peek at some up and coming product, and one of them has the forethought to quickly snap a picture whenever the chance arises.
Hence why most of these leaks are blurry, dark, and out of focus. I'd be more suspicious of them if they were perfectly framed and shot in perfect lighting conditions.
Um yeah looks fake as H*** to me too. But really you choose a phone based on what the icons look like? I agree it would be a shame to loose all your app purchases but if the icons are not any different then it will definitely be worth it.
It was called a joke. But it is a bit strange that the only leaks out of iOS 7 are about the icons. Apple has way bigger problems in iOS than the looks of the icons. And btw, my guess is the teams responsible for each app do have a designer that designs the app icon. This is most likely why none of the Apple stock apps have any synergy.
There's enough there to see it doesn't look exactly the same. You can spot a few differences if you look closely at it.
But you're otherwise right. There's not nearly enough information in those shots for anyone to be able to make an informed decision as to how fantastic/terrible the change is.
Nah, in this case, more people will start spilling over to Android and other non ios platforms.
Live tiles are the way of the future. I could not imagine living without them.
You "feel sorry" for us? You really don't need to. I feel sorry for the companies who paid for those icon designs... I'd feel ripped off!
Design is more than drawing a square, chopping nice curves into the corners, and putting a sheen layer over it.
I find this thread to be hilarious for some reason...
-Multiple instances of people saying that it's "fake" because the icons are not aligned with the screen (duh, it's a picture of a picture)
-People having fun with the concept of taking a picture of the picture of the picture.
-People being disappointed (from a very blurry picture)
-Entertaining the idea that iOS 7 will actually look exactly like that (blurry and grainy)

This person should be ashamed......
...If you're going to try and leak a false photo, at least spend more that 30 seconds in photoshop putting together photos of an android apple theme & an old iphone!

Listen. I know this friend of a friend of a cousin who knows a guy who works for Apple. Apparently that's exactly what it's going to look like. Don't believe me? Here's a shot he gave us showing off one of the new iOS7 advertisements they're going to place on the store front after WWDC.
cut us apple fanboys a break. its been a slow news day, we are getting impatient for ios 7 and wwdc for all the goodies and we need to vent our emotions.
also, unlike last year, this is the 1st Apple Press Event this year. so yeah...thx for understanding.
I've been reading almost all of the posts here and couldn't resist to make one observation which seems (and correct me if I'm wrong) no one mentioned here - if you read the previous articles about iOS 7 you can find an info saying that people who are internally testing iOS 7 at Apple are using a protective layer over the screen which reduces the viewing angles of the device, ergo making in almost impossible for other to see anything if they are not directly looking at the screen.
This being said, perhaps the light refraction is really messy and when taking the photo of it you get the "potato level of clarity" of the image.
Not saying this can't be fake, but I think this could be a legitimate case of Apple's protective layer over the test devices at work preventing the image to be clear.

i have been thinking about this more and more lately, what with interesting divide between those that favor the icons present in the leaked image and those that absolutely hate the icons. It would be interesting to tally up the results of those that hate and love the icons and see how it is distributed...i know, i am totally bored....

couldn't have said it better myself
i think this was supposed to be a video but the whistleblower got scared and chickened out... and posted a blurry pic
