A repair firm iResQ, who have showed us just showed us a taller battery claimed to belong to the iPhone 5, has given us a nearly fully assembled iPhone 5 laying, and now they added a front panel to the mix, providing a good overall look at the iPhone 5 with several closeup photos. As you can see via the photos, the iPhone 5 is significantly thinner than the iPhone 4S.
"Perhaps most notable is one closeup side-on shot showing the iPhone 5 laying next to an iPhone 4S on a table. The photo shows that the iPhone 5 is indeed substantially thinner than the iPhone 4S, by approximately the thickness of either the front or rear glass of the iPhone 4S. Apple's move toward thinner body components and a thinner distribution of internal components enabled by the larger surface area due to the 4-inch screen of the iPhone 5 have allowed the company to substantially shrink the device's overall thickness. Previous reports have pegged the iPhone 5 thickness at 7.6 mm, 18% thinner than the iPhone 4S at 9.3 mm. "
Apple is expected to introduce the iPhone 5 at its media event scheduled for next Wednesday, September 12. I still hope iPhone 5 would have a better design then rumored.
