LOL people went for white/silver with iPhone 5 (scuffgate), and then gold for 5S. Now they'll be going for the black (space gray?) because the white and gold aren't looking good so far :D

There is no reason there would be more space between the home button and the screen at the bottom or between the speaker and the screen at the top. I'm certain these are just more fakes/mockups regardless.

It would be hilarious if this was an intentionally bogus design by Apple intended to weed out leaks though up until now the design seems to have originated from the same source from several weeks ago. This is the first we've seen the 5.5" model though there are all sorts of oddities with it.
 
Camera Wrong

:apple:

Hey guys, this is obviously not the final version. The camera is from the original model, and no two tone flash... I have a feeling after apple spends time and money making better tech, they won't revert to an older version :)

Also I have a thought, what if the exciting tech they keep eluding to is really a wearable iPhone? What if using OLED's, they have created a bendable device? Or knowing apple, they have to use something different... so a new tech all together? Because remember, under Tim Cook, they are a lot more future tech focused, and the updates between phones have been larger...

I can see the Lightning port on the 4.7" model, but unless I'm mistaken, there doesn't seem to be one on the 5.5"?

That and the dimensions of the screen on the surface of each phone makes me think these are Photoshop jobs.
 
And what about 4-inch screen? Any news?

:apple:

Personally I would love a 4-inch... my brother has a GS4, and it is huge... I would never want a phone that big. I like being able to hold it in one hand

Need to see the 5.5" model compared to other phones like HTC One M8 and Samsung S5 for comparison. I think the 5.5" might be around the same size. If that is the case; I getting the iPhone 6 5.5" size.

You should be happy if the 4.7" iPhone with its massive bezels will be the same size as the S5 or M8.

"Sonny Dickson has sent us photos of a 5.5-inch iPhone 6 physical “dummy” mockup in the Space Gray color (above and below), and he has posted photos of a white and gold model on Twitter."

-and-

"Again, these are dummy models likely manufactured by resellers or case makers and are not photos of an actual, fully produced next-generation iPhone."
 
Looks great to me except for the back. But I'm sure Apple won't release something that ugly. If the black one does in fact look like an actual black phone again this time around then I might grab it over the Gold. Not a fan of the ugly Space Gray crap.
 
Dual flash seems gone based upon these photos and mockups. What gives?
I don't have a 5S, but how much of a difference does the dual flash make?
If it was an improvement, surely they'd keep it.

The black mockup with the back lines/breaks looks bearable. This gold one (and the other white ones) however, don't. Unsure about the appearance - especially as someone who has never used a case on an iPhone ever.
You don't need dual flash. I'm almost certain that Apple acquired a micro LED company earlier in the year. This may be a multi colored LED.
 
Hmm...I think I might trust Apple/AuthenTec engineers over people here who claim things can be easily done. If it's so easy to do, how come Samsung's fingerprint scanner was also implemented into a physical home button?

I think I might just trust my brain here and say that there is no need for the scanner to be a clickable button.
 
I think Apple should bring back the iPhone 4 design, but with sapphire glass on the front and back. :cool:
 
I'm going 5.5" because I know Apple will pull off a large device better than anyone else can.

In the same way that the 4in iPhone is a marvel of minimal bezels etc... Small body, large screen goodness.

If you can't hold a s4 in one hand, you must be about 6 years old...

Ok, but i don' t believe sonny dicksons early mockups.
Perhaps they were mockups based on leaked dimensions, but not based on facts.
Look at this:

Is defintely more refined, smaller bezels and looks like something apple could release.
According to macfixit, this is not a dummy or mockup.
 
It's plastic, to allow the Bluetooth and wireless antennas to receive signals (which is normally blocked by the metal case). My guess is that Apple will probably colour them to make them blend in with the casing better and not stick out so much.

What if they're part of the unibody enclosure...made of liquid metal! :eek:

Yeah, I know... :rolleyes:
