Screen lock button gone?

seriously?

there has never been dual speakers on an iPhone.. EVER.

It's actually the same pattern on the 5C.

See:

And the 5c has awful outgoing call quality, much worse than the 5s. I don't know whether it's because of the single hole , a worse mic, or combination.

 

[Agent OrangeZ]

are you really going to do this every freaking time?

Why not? It is a valid comment. This IS ONCE AGAIN a 4.7" iPhone 6 leak with no 5.5" leaks emerging with it. Makes people think there isn't going to be a 5.5" iPhone 6... no?

Which means there are going to be a slew of bad case designs that don't have enough of a lip and will not protect the edges of the screen when dropped.

can we get this part of the article in big shiny red letters? Because its obvious by the comments that most idiots on here don't even read, they just look at the pictures and make obtuse comments about them..

Seriously people.
This is a Frankenstein phone. A bunch of leaked parts assembled together to get a rough idea of the final product.. Yes that is the same back casing that Sonny posted, with the broken off plastic parts.

Stop getting worked up over the "quality", or the "colors"..

/rant.

^This.
In fact, the rear shell is the same part they "leaked" last week or so. The one that was all beat up and they tore some of the plastic bands out of it. You can still see where they removed the bands in these new pics.
Can't wait to see the real thing. I'm sure it will look nothing like this.

What the actual ****. Are some of you people actually this dense?

so, this is a real image ?

 

[jayducharme]

I can see why Apple is looking at using the lightning connector as a headphone connection. That 1/8" jack now looks positively huge.

This could be something altogether different, right? It's not necessarily an iPhone at all.

 

[Jack snakeskin]

No matter how much more they polish it this design will feel less classy than the 5s one

 

[aevelasquez]

I dd a slight manip on it to reflect the space gray black sheme

I think it makes that model look a lot more in keeping with there recent stuff and not as antiquated as the original iphone

 

[Tech198]

Reminds me of my bulky phone.

Looks more like slate. Space gray is much lighter.

Don't need to protect the screen...it's sapphire...

 

[Blorzoga]

Reminds me of the 3G / 3GS

By far, the most comfortable iPhone to handle and hold.

 

[chrisbru]

Screen lock button gone?

It's on the side now, opposite the mute switch.

People said the same about the 5 vs the 4S. And the 3G with the original. And remember the outcry when the iP4 was leaked, and people said how ugly the antenna break was?

 

[Blorzoga]

I don't think sapphire is shatterproof. Scratch proof, maybe.

 

[fallenjt]

Got to say I much prefer the completely black glass front with the silver back plate.

including the White antenna band (on the black glass)? That's is Zebra Wow factor.

 

[Moto G]

Ive an idea this is half cooked... or half-cocked...

 

[fallenjt]

Reminds me of the Samsung Galaxy phones

Which one because they all look the same?

----------

Looks pretty good turned off as you cannot see the (potentially large) bezel... apple please surprise us by making the bezel really really thin!

Looking from the side, the edge of the display to the side of the phone is still as big as iPhone 5/5S. Because of the rounded edge, the glass screen bezels actually get thinner without making the phone sides thinner. This is brilliant because your fingers wouldn't touch the screen when holding the device. I wonder how the white front would look like.

 

[burgundyyears]

This reminds me more of my 5th gen ipod touch than anything else.

So this would be why we have seen rear shells with both black and white antenna stripes, because the lines are meant to match the front panel, not the metal. We saw a gold rear shell because it is too hard to tell that it is gold if the only gold part is the antenna.

Wait, where have you seen a black shell with black stripes?
Every one i've seen has been the silver/white one.

edit:
I've seen several "mock-ups" in black.
But I don't believe anyone has shown a black shell actual parts leak.. The only legit-looking back shell was/is the one from F&V/Sonny (this one in this post)..

 

[dav1dd]

What's up with the dodgy power switch? I really hope apple has gone to great lengths to fool us, by leaking this instead of what is coming on Sept 9...
