What will people do if the top and bottom bezels are narrower than the 5S and the back doesn't have those thick antenna break lines? What will they complain about? The battery?
 
Am I the only one that thinks it's just silly to be posting pictures of electronic parts, cables, and other internal parts?

How about some performance specs, or features, or at the very least, some idea about pricing!!
 
Looks to me like the camera is still centered over the speaker, but what I don't get then is what that hole beside the speaker is for? pretty big hole.

For the ihealth App! IP6 now incorporates a breathalizer sensor! blow and Go!
 
I just searched for iPhone 5S screens and it is pretty much the same, where ear piece speaker is. What you see in the back (digitizer?) is bigger than the screen in the front.

Not really. On this "new one".. the top of the screen section is right where the outer borders start to curve. Now look at the 5/5s... the screen top is much further down. Nowhere near those curves. I understand what you're saying if you look at the internal shot of a 5/5s.. they have a cover that makes the screen portion look larger internally. This doesn't seem to have that.
 
Unless it's some new sapphire display tech, stick to regular glass because scratches > shatters.

Nice to see the bezels are likely to be smaller.
 
I hope the display is actually scratchproof.

I can't see a glass screen protector, or any screen protector for that matter, working with those rounded edges. Apple can kill the screen protector market.
 
Am I the only one wondering why there is a wacom branding in those pictures?
There is in one, and the human that took that photo just took some random thing he had close by to hold that flex cable, that happened to be a wacom pen, or is that to logical?
 
Wow. Those bezels, that curve...my excitement for this device is getting ridiculous.

My last big hope is that they've switched to IGZO screens to really make use of that limited battery. A combination of slimness and endurance that would crush the competition.

Heh. I know you are joking, but 9to5mac reported that HealthKit supports spirometry data. This would be for medical accessories, of course.

so naive. The huge Wacom pen is clearly a part of the front panel, it sticks out as a deadly weapon. The McGyver iPhone.
 
Ah, so I guess that's why we kept hearing rumors of the iPhone 6 having a "curved display" from way back in the beginning of the year!

...Well, I imagined the rumors meant an entire curved screen (much like the LG G-Flex and mock-ups included w/ the articles) and quickly dismissed those rumors. Now it all makes much more sense. I'm not sure about the design aesthetics of having rounded edges, but I will reserve judgement till sept 9th! :)

I`m looking at the attached picture, and it seems like trying to judge the front from the rear is not that accurate. (Happens to me all the time :p)

I wonder why the part of the cable at the tip of the stylus looks photoshop-smudged/blurred.

Good point...probably makes more sense to estimate the bezels given the photo of the front of the screen down by the home button. We can see there that the bezel is just a tiny bit larger than the diameter of the home button itself. Probably not as dramatic as what we're seeing on the top though. Shucks.
 
The aluminum looks extra sparkly, almost like how the aluminum finish on the 2010 MacBook Pro is more sparkly/reflective than later models.
