A supposed leaked back panel sheds more light on the iPhone 5

2021-05-06

We've already seen a similar back panel leak. Unfortunately that doesn't make these parts any more authentic. However, if we assume these are the real deal, this leak brings a few new facts to the table:

• The 3.5mm audio jack will be moved to the bottom of the device.
• The new panel is a unibody unit and includes both the back panel and the middle plate, which houses all the electronics components.
• The SIM tray on the new iPhone will actually be smaller, so Apple might be moving to a new SIM standard.

Furthermore, this new leak provides some hard evidence to backup previous rumors as well:

• The new iPhone will have a bigger screen but it's only taller than the current one, not wider.
• The new iPhone will have a smaller proprietary connector.
• The back piece is made out of metal, but there are patches of glass top and bottom.
• The new iPhone will be slimmer than the current 4S model.

But enough talking here's the video that shows all of these:
