Newly leaked photos posted by evasi0njailbreak purportedly reveal the rear shell of the larger 5.5-inch iPhone 6. The shell is pictured next to the smaller shell of the 4.7-inch model.

As stated by the original source who provided these images from "deep within Apple’s supply chain in China," the component is very limited and could simply be intended for testing purposes.

While we can't confirm the validity of the source, the rear shell's screw holes do line up with a previous logic board leak.

Apple is expected to unveil the iPhone 6 on September 9th; however, it's not clear if both the 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch models will be launched at the same. Some reports have the 5.5-inch version launching in December.

Take a look at the images below and please follow iClarified on Twitter, Facebook, or RSS for updates on the iPhone 6.

I stated earlier that Samsung is making all their products in full plastic. Never forget that your favorite objects in your everyday life is made out of plastic. Just like your your sport shoes, your remote controls, your coke bottles, your shampoo bottles, supermarket bags and even your beautiful Hyundai car. Embrace the beauty of plastic in your everyday life just like you do with the rest of your products.

I stated earlier what better material makes even who is upcoming to following the other. Remember how we afford many things that involve metal compared to worthless junk, who wants something that easily ignites with fire. What if I has a magnifying glass anywhere I went. Let me skip ahead and conclude this is how the shit4 crisped up the apartment from last year, so can't we all learn from these mistakes of being away from shit to starts roasting shit up? Power metal enforces us like music does in our daily routines even for what can be made out of anything we use it with today just like apple products. Heavy metal power!!!

Ah Wah? ooohhh the power of online language translator. thanks for the effort though.

Aren't all of you sick and tired of Apple making their products out of premium materials like aluminum? Samsung has always been using plastic and is currently best at it.

@sSpew: What did you said?...quit using free online language translator, you're giving me a headache.

Both are copy of Samsung so if you have tried or see Samsung with similar size then its the same. So iSheeps can decide now itself

Even if I wanted the small I would wait to see the larger one. Hold both and try both out. Initial 6 release might be bad if they stagger the release dates. Stock will tank but it usually does on release. Buy on rumors , sell on news.

I think I want a bigger one. I also worry 5.5 is too big. But It seems 5.5" iPhone 6 is slimmer than Note 2/3. If that's the case, I will get 5.5". I definitely want to see the spec before pre-ordering it.

They have to announce both size in the same time. Otherwise, I cam imagine there will be a lot of upset customers.

If they release the larger phone a few months later without making it clear that the larger one is in fact coming a lot of people will buy the smaller one and then be mighty pissed when the larger one they would rather have bought comes out.

Yep. Hence why I'm thinking on holding off incase....

gamerscul9870 - August 21, 2014 at 2:39am

The survey says a lot are looking forward to the 5.5" so I doubt there will be that many pissed off. They could at least nor row the 5.5" shell to finalize their decision of buying the 4.7" then the 5.5".

will announce both size models at the same time but different shipment schedule.
