The lightning port looks recessed. Looks like only official Apple cables will fit in there? Not even MFI cables would fit it looks like

The Walls of the Garden are about to get another layer of bricks laid upon them...

Also, this seems like it could be another bean-counting move by Cook to force people to buy official Lightning cables. Or this mockup could be just that, a mockup that is not accurate.

There's just a part missing from the socket. Take a look at a 5S.

Oh for gods sake! These are clearly prototype parts someone got a hold of and put together to try and depict what a finished product would look like. Heck, for all we know these could be Chinese knockoff parts. Someone gets a back and a display, slaps them together and throws them up on the internet.
 
Not liking that plastic rim on the audio port at all. It's honestly getting hard to boast about build quality when decisions like that are made. I was disappointed enough when the MacBooks changed from metal.
 
Oh, way to go, Apple. Make iOS 8 perfect for a new device and camera, with a nifty new Timelapse feature, for a device with rounded edges that can't be stood up steady on a flat surface to record timelapses out of a window, on a window sill, etc... D'oh!

Genuinely miffed about that ha I quite like filming sunset lapses on the window sill, or cloud movement from my desk at work. Looks peaceful.
 
Am I the only person worried about this thing being slippery as all hell to hold? Super light, super thin, more glass, rounded edges, metal.
