Photos have leaked of what is allegedly an iPhone 6 prototype.

The images were first posted to Twitter by @mornray886. Sonny Dickson, ‏who has a track record of authentic leaks, has also been posting photos online. Apparently they were first leaked by someone in China who claimed that they show the 'iPhone 6'.

The device clearly has a larger display, a thinner profile, and a curved edge design more similar to the iPad. Current rumors have Apple releasing the iPhone 6 in 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch configurations. MacRumors was able to estimate the width of the display at 2.6 inches compared to the iPhone 5s display which is 2.31-inches wide.

Although impossible to tell from these photos, the iPhone 6 is also rumored to feature a sapphire glass display. The stronger glass may compensate for its lighter frame and 'bezel-free' display.

While we can't confirm the validity of these images, they are in line with what's expected of Apple for the iPhone 6.

Update: These have been confirmed to be fake.

To people (even the article) saying fake, why do you think it's a concept for a reason? We all understand it already.

Looks like a Samsung

Samsung makes the quarter of the parts of iPhones.

This is not confirmed as FAKE! The only thing that this confirms is that the fully assembled phone render is fake. I could see that before I found this article. The back plate is legit. The fake gold phone was done by someone after they got a hold of the back plate pics. Expect videos of the back plate next week. After that, tech sites will be buying them like the ipad air and mini back plates.

Apple oh Apple... I would love to see and owned the next iPhone if its come with 5inch built in 128GB Memory. Apple will decide the spec.

It's been confirmed as fake.

This must be the new ipad nano...

Apple stated - February 13, 2014 at 2:11am

Wow. That was fast!!

breezys - February 13, 2014 at 1:49am

Wow thats nice! S4 with touchID made by apple!

Galdamita - February 13, 2014 at 1:26am

Meet the iPhone Galaxy One!!

Yoi - February 13, 2014 at 1:02am

Agree looks like galaxy, only it has better material.

Fake for the following reasons: The speaker grill holes are too large. Apple wouldn't use large holes where a kid can puncture the speaker with a needle. That would cause too many returns. Cheap protective plastic. Whenever you order a cheap Chinese back cover for any phone, it always comes with this cheap plastic protection. Notice the air bubbles. Apple controls everything in the process to manufacture their phones.

Wow, thanks captain obvious pointing out what concept means. We haven't even heard the final look from apple yet, what else do you expect? It's a render from a fan.

Doesn't seem like a ''concept'' to me. I think this is the real thing, I hope it is not and iPod touch though.

gamerscul9870 - February 13, 2014 at 2:13am

Like I just said, it's not a damn iPod touch.

NYPD_23 - February 13, 2014 at 4:32am

Why is there a plastic volume buttons?

Mr s jobs - February 13, 2014 at 12:57am

Look like htc one max to me

skylander - February 13, 2014 at 12:33am

Looks real to me. I want one. I hope it's not iPod Touch.

gamerscul9870 - February 13, 2014 at 12:56am

Obviously not.

You do know this isn't the design, just a unit that'll be used for testing and troubleshooting issues. They do this every year, and we knew they were most likely coming out with 2 screen sizes next year.

031croat - February 12, 2014 at 11:54pm

it looks real

adityaprihandy - February 12, 2014 at 11:50pm

i think it's better if the the sixth gen a little bit wider

gamerscul9870 - February 12, 2014 at 11:49pm

Apple would never make edge to edge, doing this leads to s4 and HTC one copying.

jtern - February 12, 2014 at 11:47pm

Not saying it's a good thing or bad, but GS4 much?
