Another leaked case, allegedly for the iPhone 6, shows a repositioned power button corroborating recent rumors.

The case was posted by Nowhereelse:

Then notice the rectangular format of the volume control buttons (# 1) which differs from the format of round buttons on previous generations. Finally, unlike the cases revealed last night and as yet the rumored, the standby button of the device has been moved to one of its lateral edges (2 #).

In his Apple roadmap research note, KGI Securities analyst Ming Chi-Kuo recently detailed specifications for the 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch iPhone 6 and revealed that Apple may move the sleep/wake button to facilitate one-handed operation on the larger devices.

This case is just one of a recent flurry of leaks that suggests Apple may be ramping up iPhone 6 production earlier than expected. We've seen leaked schematics, molds and more molds, a 5.1-inch front panel, batteries, and mockups.

Is Apple planning to release the iPhone 6 this summer? Please follow iClarified on Twitter, Facebook, or RSS for updates.
