After a number of leaks and rumours for the yet-to-be-announced next Apple iPhone, tipped as the iPhone 6, we now have another clear look at the alleged iPhone 6's dummy, courtesy a video from Vietnam.
The images show what seems to be the rumoured 5.5-inch screen-sized iPhone 6, which said to be similar in shape to the current generation iPod touch. Previously rumours also indicated the device has a current-generation iPod touch-like design because it is actually the next-generation iPod touch - though this seems a little unlikely. The grey coloured device seen in the video (via GSMArena) was found at Apple8, a Vietnamese store.
It has been reported that the handset might come with an aluminium body, and plastic lines on its back panel that are meant to separate the antenna elements. The iPhone 6 dummy was said to be lightweight, though of course, the weight of the dummy is not necessarily indicative of the weight of the actual iPhone 6.
While on Wednesday we saw some images giving a slight glimpse of what the dimensions for the next iPhone can be courtesy some leaked cases, from these latest images it has been understood that the dummy iPhone 6 measures roughly 6.5mm in thickness. There is still no word on the length and breadth of the actual device.
Furthermore, the back panel is said to sport a single-LED flash instead of dual-LED as seen on the Apple iPhone 5s (Pictures). The website also mentions that the alleged iPhone 6 will be introduced officially in September.
A recent report also states that the Cupertino-based company is testing a higher screen resolution of 960x1740 pixels on at least one of the two iPhone models (5.5-inch and 4.7-inch screen variant) likely to debut this year. It has been also speculated that the next generation handset will come with a pixel-tripling (3X) mode.
Previously it was rumoured that the high-end 5.5-inch iPhone model would boast of a higher screen resolution at 1080x1920 pixels (full-HD), with a pixel density of 401ppi, while the 4.7-inch model is said to pack a lower resolution screen at 750x1334 pixels and might offer a pixel density of 326ppi.
