The New iPhone's Box LEAKED

Almost certainly fake:
1. It's nearly certain it will be called the iPhone 5, given the big 5 in the announcement.
2. Even if they went the route of the 'new iPhone', it wouldn't be printed on the box that way (the new iPad just has 'iPad' on the box).
3. The image is from a mockup that's been floating around. What are the chances the real phone will have the EXACT same home screen:

You could also say the 12 and 5 are an interplay between the current year 2012 and 5 years since the iPhone first came out in 2007. But I think that would be over-analyzing it.
How is it nearly certain?
5 could mean,
5 row of apps
5 years of iPhones
5 newly updated products(iPhone, iPod touch, iPod nano, iPod shuffle, iPod)
With Apple, NOTHING is certain!
100% fake, i work in the printing industry specializing in packaging and there is no way they would impose the boxes up like that. They would be nested. (interlocked) Not to mention the Apple logo and text would be a silver foil, not printed in CMYK as per that picture.

Given you are now the third person to post this in the same thread, maybe you could read the thread before posting. Just an idea.
Yeah, I thought it was a mock up picture I'd seen!
LOL same.My first thought when I see this picture: that girl will need a new job soon. Unless Apple sics their ninja solders on her first
A terrible idea... The OP has now learnt a valuable lesson in searching before posting.

Is it my imagination or does it say 6 on the front of the box on the side directly below the picture of the iPhone where on the 4s the box had a silver 4s???
Shouldn't this be the iPhone 5!!!
EDIT - It looks pretty much like the IOS 6 logo. If so, Apple definitely won't put that on the box so doubt its legit.

This can't be legit. It seems like the Youtube app is still there, this, as everyone knows, wouldn't be the case.
