Alleged iPhone 5S images suggest Apple isnt shaking up the design

A few pap snaps of what is claimed to be the iPhone 5S have made their way to the web, and suggest that Apple wont be shaking things up too much with the outer design of the new handset.


Theres been plenty of talk about Apple toying with different screen sizes for future iPhones, but if these leaky pics are anything to go by, Apple will be sticking with the status quo for the 5S as the dimensions appear to be identical to the 5.

Its on the inside that the differences lie, however, as we can see that one of the flex cable connectors is now facing vertically, while both on the 5 are currently positioned horizontally.

Not all that exciting on the face of it, but it could suggest that Apple is shifting parts around to make room for some new hardware, as previous info leaks have suggested.

The fifth dimension

The pictures came from both MacRumours and FanaticFone and appear to match up, but of course its worth taking with a decent dose of salt on the side.

If true though, it means that production on the iPhone 5S is very much underway, meaning the September/October release timeframe is looking good.
