While we’ve seen a number of physical mockups and case leaks for the iPhone 6, we haven’t seen very much in the way of actual components. There was the front panel, the tray full of batteries, and this recently-leaked backlight panel, but that’s pretty much it.
We’re adding another part to the pile
tonight, though. Macfixit Australia says it has obtained what is
believed to be the back cover of an iPhone 6. The site says that it
belongs to a 4.7-inch model—one of two rumored to be released this
year—and is silver in color…
Here’s the full image, again via Macfixit Australia:
The cover appears to have a thin green
film on top of it, but otherwise its design matches up nicely with
previous intel. Note the cutout for the rounded flash and the iPad
mini-like rounded edges, and the antenna breaks near the top and bottom
also look familiar.
From what we’ve heard so far, the so-called
iPhone 6 is going to come in both 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch flavors, and
bring about higher resolution displays. It’s also expected to feature an
improved A8 processor, a better camera, multiple new sensors and possibly NFC.
The consensus is that Apple will begin
ramping up production on at least the 4.7-inch model over the next
month, with a launch event slated for September as usual.
