Latest purported iPhone 5 case pictures....

If the screen isn't bigger..I probably won't buy it. I switched to an android based phone recently..and it is too hard to switch back to the "small" screen..just SEEMS so small to me now anyway.

Usually in June, but they didn't and the rumour is either the end of this month, September, or October. Most believe it'll be in September (early to mid September).

OP: All the images show the front which proves nothing. The only thing I get out of these images is that the cases will have a different camera opening in the back. Get some side shots of the case.

those images also show the silent switch moved to the opposite side....
 
Perhaps he is preparing/editing an article about the iPhone 5 info like Gizmodo did with the iPhone 4 leak.. you never know! :cool:

I doubt it, but it would be very interesting if he is...

Well I'm just not sure why he would tweet about it, then delete the tweet saying later this week if it wasn't a big deal. There has to be some reason he's refraining from posting the info.

Ummm, based on a case design you know the actual phone design has already exceeded your expectations? In what way exactly? Please tell us because we'd all love to know what the new iPhone will look like exactly.

I'll explain, it's quite simple. The case design shows that the iPhone 5 will have a rounded edged (iPhone 3GS-like) design. Also, it'll be a bit bigger than the iPhone 4 and will boast a bigger screen. It will also be thinner than the iPhone 4. This also means that the antenna design is likely to have changed as well.

So we can make good rough mock-ups based on this info. Now the only thing we need to know is what material is used for the back and we'll have a pretty close to legit mock-up. Provided these cases are genuine.

On Topic: I really hope Mark wasn't BSing about the "major iPhone 5 news", why wouldn't he just post it on 9to5Mac? Why the wait?

A very good point, but maybe he is refraining due to legal reasons.

Yeah, I doubt he wants the legal troubles that Jason had hahaha.

I don't think anyone would want all of that trouble for the sake of a mobile phone unless there would be some sort of serious reward!
 
Don't know if it is related, but he did tweet this a few days ago...:

Literally there is someone 10 minutes from me with an iPhone 5
