iPhone 6 leaked photos may confirm the device's design weeks before the September release date.
Recent news offer the latest iPhone 6 leaked photos, and the source claims these as legit. TMZ got first crack at the leak, from a source who had a friend smuggle the device from the Foxconn factory in China.
Foxconn is a confirmed partner of Apple in the tech giant's previous releases. The Chinese company has manufactured various smartphones in the past, and the person who smuggled the device is reported to be collaborating with Apple in conceptualizing the design and the casing of the new iPhone 6.
One of the device's more notable features is the sensor on the front face. It's yet to be determined what the sensor's function is, although very prominent on the leaked photos from TMZ.
The new iPhone is also claimed to be significantly lighter than previous models. The iPhone 6 leaked photos is a step in the right direction if confirmed, but it's really too early to jump the gun and believe it as the final design.
TMZ has also stated the device isn't running on official iOS, which is strange considering the betas already available to developers and users. Security reasons were offered, but a genuine iOS installed in an alleged authentic iPhone should make the leak more legit.
Another explanation for the leak is the phone is actually a clone of the iPhone 6, which makes sense considering the bootlegged iOS. The smartphone's actual design, specs, and features are still up in the air, with a few weeks remaining before the September release date.
One of the rumors surrounding the new iPhone 6 is an improved battery life, welcome news for heavy users. The iPhone 6 leaked photos have yet to be verified, and will possibly wait for the September release date to be confirmed (tmz.com).
