Backplate images of rumored iPhone 6 have been leaked

4.6

Since the release of the iPhone 5S, consumers have been speculating about how the newest addition to the family of smartphones would look. There have been many leaks concerning the rumored iPhone 6, such as larger screens, different button placement, and pretty much anything else you could imagine. Most recently, there has been a set of leaked images posted on NWE that depicts a supposed backplate of the iPhone 6 that features an all metal design. It looks like Apple is moving away from the glass aesthetics that were introduced with the release of the iPhone 4 back in June of 2010.

In this picture, you can see where the MicroSIM card would be inserted as well as a new location for the power button. Due to the rumors of an increase in the size of the screen, Apple may have moved the wake/power button to the right side of the device to maintain ease of use while in one hand. Despite that there is different button placement in this image, nearly everything else appears the same as the previous iPhone models except for the cutout Apple logo which UberGizmo speculates could be used for an LED notification light.

slapshot101 The LED apple logo that functioned like a notification alter would be awesome. It would look a lot like the MacBook and Mac Air Laptop cases. I am really excited for the iPhone 6 but I personally don't want a bigger screen, I think that the Galaxy's screens are just too big.

I agree. I like the iPhone 5 series phone screen size. They are bigger but not too crazy with the size. I do agree that metal phones and an LED notification feature would be nice though.

I hate big phones, this just seems stupid to me in all honesty

Gossip I don't like it, reminds me of the S5 with how big it is and the rounded edges.

Oh rounded edges are the worst. -facepalm-

Looks decent but it would be a bad idea to keep going further in their design
