iPhone 5 Parts Dump Brings Together Rumored Features, Components
Posted by Michael Nace on Wednesday May 30, 2012 Under iPhone 5 Opinion, iPhone 5 Rumor
If 9to5Mac’s leaked iPhone 5 parts are the real thing, then the rumors have been amazingly accurate. But the key word here is “if.” (Also — do these new photos give the October release truthers pause?)
Just when it seemed like there’d be no significant iPhone 5 component centerfolds to gawk at leading up the WWDC in mid-June, big news broke over at 9to5Mac, whose purported leaked photos of what are said to be iPhone 5 parts has made quite a splash in the rumor mill. While the leaked photos of home buttons, sim card trays, and front panels for the iPod Touch have failed to impress many into believing that it could be enough of a component breadcrumb trail leading to a WWDC iPhone 5 announcement, the 9to5Mac photos — if true — reveal enough of the new iPhone’s design to suggest that production could indeed be far enough along to imagine a release date well before the fall.
Of course, that’s a big “if.” The fact is, leaked parts have always had to be taken with a grain of salt: while some of the iPad 3 part leaks turned out to be solid, most of what we saw last year led to dead ends — including a flurry of bogus iPhone 5 cases.
It is worth noting, however, that 9to5Mac appears to believe that what we are looking at is legitimate, for whatever that’s worth. For those conspiracy theorists who believe that Apple baits the rumor mill, it could be said that the appearance of these parts — so close to the ramp up of the WWDC — is meant to re-ignite the flame of the iPhone 5 rumor mill that has (with few exceptions) has no believe in a June-released iPhone 5.
Another interesting component to these leaked parts is that it makes good on the totality of recent rumors concerning the form factor and exterior of the iPhone 5: the taller screen, the smaller dock connector, the metal back (though no word on LiquidMetal), and a serious cosmetic redesign of the sides and overall look of the phone. It’s a perfect representation of the same rumors that 9to5Mac has been espousing. Skeptics might say too perfect.
Conspicuously absent from the story is how this set of photos impacts the release date rumors for the iPhone 5.
In 9to5Mac’s original article, they had this to say:
The iPhone repair experts at iFixyouri have forwarded a nifty new part that entered their catalog. It could be the back plate for the upcoming new iPhone or one of the early prototypes. We are told the Chinese parts supplier is a reliable one (not a fly-by-night) and that they are actually selling these parts (do not worry, we have one on order).
How did iFixyouri come upon adding these parts to their catalog? Furthermore, if the iPhone 5 is still five months away like most believe, then how could a Chinese parts supplier — which 9to5Mac believes is reputable — be adding these parts to their catalog? It suggests that — assuming the rumor is true — that there are lots of parts out on the Asian market that are obtainable. Not what you’d expect from an iPhone 5 that is practically a half a year away from release.
The deduction is simple: if you believe these parts are real, then you need to starting believing in a June iPhone 5 release. Conversely, if you believe that the iPhone won’t be released until the fall, then you cannot believe this story. We cannot have it both ways.

I was hoping for a little bit more overhauled design, but it looks pretty good. The only thing I don’t like is the back. On one hand the two tone look looks kinda cool, but on the other hand, I wish the entire back was metal without the two strips in the top and bottom.
Now we have an almost complete iPhone 5. The only things missing are the screen and the internal parts (battery, A? chip, ect.). At this point I’d be supprised if the iPhone 5 wasn’t revealed next month.

N.B.: Just read this about Tim Cook apparently quashing the possibility of a 4-inch iPhone 5: http://www.zdnet.com/blog/btl/apples-tim-cook-rules-out-iphone-5-with-4-inch-screen/78626 But I think that people are misinterpreting what he said. At present, what he said was true — but it doesn’t preclude Apple from expanding the screen size. You know me; I don’t have a big problem with the current iPhone’s screen dimensions. But I don’t necessarily believe that Tim Cook was telegraphing to use that the iPhone 5 will have the same screen dimensions as the current iPhone.
And if the screen changes in such a way that could impact current apps, I am sure that Cupertino will have developed a solution for it.

I don’t have access right now, but 9to5′s original article said that the supplier who had these parts was also the same one that had correctly leaked info/parts for the first white iPad as well. Again, I don’t have the original quote, but it was in that article.

To me this looks more like prototype. They may be doing tests with this chassis preventing leaks of the final product. The screen and what is in the inside may be the final hardware, but I think the design will be a little diferent, it looks to much like the Iphone 4 and 4S. You can tell that the ipad’s all looks the same but with the iphone the difference betwen the generations were bigger. We’ve seen so many great mockups preetier than that one lately that many people will be dissapointed if this is the final design…

Good to hear from you, dsiiist. You’re right that iOS and the new iPhone typically get announced together. But in my mind, if the iPhone 5 is going to be a big hardware overhaul and iOS 6 is going to be a refresh — which is what the prevailing thought points to — then why couldn’t the iPhone 5 ships with iOS 5.2, with some preliminary upgrades to Siri, the new Maps, etc.? I don’t think that is so unrealistic. Most average users, after all, don’t even know what “iOS” is.

I’m not completely sold on this to be 100% accurate yet.
If Apple moved to the Micro-USB connector as agreed upon between the majority of phone suppliers, it would not fit in the majority of dock accessories and speakers. Not that
Apple tends to care what supplies have to do to make their devices work.

@Core2: If Apple went to the micro-USB, would that take away from the control you get for the phone on the dock? I mean, with the current dock, you can hook it up to a TV, charger, alarm clock, and the communications go with it. I looked at
http://gfgsm.blogspot.com/2011/02/apple-iphone-1g-3g-3gs-4-dock-connector.html
and there’s a lot more there than just power and data xmit.
Any USB (std, mini, micro) are essentially data transmission services, and has no audio or other connectors on it.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Serial_Bus
But then again, there’s no reason that micro-USB can’t be used, and have smart attach points (alarm clock, boombox, etc.) just send the appropriate command to the iPhone 5, but that might require… an iOS upgrade.

Who says that better Siri will come with a new iPhone ? Siri get more languages and therefore they use little upgrades like iOS 5.1.
And the big features will show together with iOS 6 and only an exclusive feature of iOS was shown on the iPhone event. And I don’t think that Siri will be the exklusive features again

Personally, I hope this is bogus as although the chassis looks slightly longer, the shape is pretty much the same as the IP4s so just a refresh.
I think these may be to throw us off the scent, prototypes or maybe used by Apple employees with the guts of the new iphone inside to hide any new designs.

What I’d like to know: how many of these parts does the Chinese supplier have? Does he have one of each, five of each, fifty of each, or 300 of each? The 9to5Mac article originally stated that the supplier would be adding these parts to their catalogue. The larger the quantity, the more I think it points to a sooner release. If he only has one of each, then it could just be chopped from a prototype that got out into the open.

‘Just a brief note about our next-generation iPhone back-shell leak from yesterday: sources in position to know say that the structure of the shells do match up with what is being tested internally. Namely, the redesigned bottom portion of the iPhone with the moved headphone jack and smaller dock connector are present on at least one of the longer iPhones that Apple is testing internally.’

While I am of the mind that the new iPhone release is just around the corner, I am not a fan of these rear casings. IF they are real, my only hope could be that the metal plate on back is for inductive charging…otherwise the casings are not aesthetically pleasing at all. Speaking of the what I feel could be the mounting evidence for a June release, Michael what are your thoughts that Cricket/Leap Wireless has agreed to carry the iPhone for their prepaid customers?? Here is what I find odd about the offering…
The phones (4 & 4S) will not be immediately available on Cricket. On top of that when the phones do become available on Cricket the cost for the contract free unsubsidized phones will be $399 and $499 respecively. But if you visit the Apple online store, an unlocked iPhone 4S is $649…question is are we looking at the new price point for the handsets, with a new release around the corner?

The back metal piece to me almost looks like a place-holder. What if the back is going to be something made of LiquidMetal, and this is just a piece of regular aluminum? Just a thought. It’s just that the back metal pieces look mismatched, and I don’t know that Apple would do something like that.
@Michael DeCook: actually, I find the Cricket thing to be indicative of a sooner iPhone 5 release, and here’s why: for one, as you said, these seem to be adjusted prices (adjusted down because of a new iPhone model). And Apple would never allow its mobile partners to undercut their own prices to that degree. Second, this is kind of like the opposite of when Verizon got the iPhone 4. I always believed that the real reason why the 4S was released in the fall was because Verizon got the 4 so late in the sales cycle that they asked for a longer period of time to sell the 4 without the 5/4S overshadowing it. If I was the CEO of Verizon, and Apple was going to release last year’s iPhone in June, I would have said to Apple: “Why would we start selling the iPhone 4 now, only to have the new iPhone come along in just a few months? We’ll just wait to sell the new one.”
I think the opposite is true for Cricket. Instead of beginning to sell the 4 and 4S now, they might be waiting for the 5 to be announced, and then will sell the 4 and 4S along with the 5 all at once.
Just a theory.

@ Michael-Wow, what a response eh? Well I knew it would only be a matter of time before you caught wind of this. I’d actually like to shift gears a bit here. Along with comments Tim Cook made about the size/dimensions of the iPhone line, he had this to say about Siri: “There is more that it can do, I think you’ll be really pleased with some things you will see over the coming months.” Do you think this is any indication of an expected iphone release? Because Siri could be introduced in the new Mac line that would be demoed at WWDC and maybe even Siri integration in the iPod or even iTV line(s) but realistically, with the Voice Assistant being the main feature of the 4S (and supposedly a beta start-up experiment at that with clues hinting to a better, more improved assistant for future models), I suspect he may have hinted at the possible release schedule of the i5. The very words ‘coming months’ could also mean August-October, respectively, of course but in the context of the sentence, it almost seemed like he meant sooner than later. Thoughts?

Other than connecting an iPhone to external speakers or similar type device why would we need a dock connector at all?
If as @Michael DeCook says, the back plate is for inductive charging and Apple are pushing us towards the iCloud for all device synching, the iOS updates will come down without the need to be connected to a computer surely we could connect our phones and iPods etc to speakers using bluetooth?
Apple have signed the ‘treaty’ to standardise the connector to micro USB but what would we really use it for? In-car charging is all I can think of at the moment. Maybe it can be done away with altogether allowing more room inside the devices for the battery?

@Core2,
I forgot to add that about the smaller proprietary connector, but thanks for picking that up for me. The argument that you make on irking people is what we’ve enjoyed for the last 5 years on iPhone, and longer on iPods: Consistency on charging/interface accessories. And yes, it does look mini/micro USBish by size, but I’m hoping for an improved dock connector.
However, it may be time to move on, and there may be an interface adapter, but at some point, we have to go to something better/smaller/cheaper/faster. One of the anchors that the Windows world had hanging around it’s neck was DOS compatibility.
One other thing odd about this case is the headset jack on the bottom by the “dock”. IPods have the headset at the bottom, and iPhones had it at the top, so you could talk on the headset whil it was charging. Interesting…

The first obvious answer to my question would be that if Apple completely removed a dock connector completely it would make lots of existing devices unusable. This would also be true if they changed to micro USB although one would suspect that there may be a converter available.
Surely if a converter can be made available it could be made to fit existing external devices using the original dock connection but have a bluetooth transmitter/receiver built in?

’9to5Mac image of the front glass panel and the casing for the iPhone and the next was to be posted, I tried to check the front glass panel is presumably the same thing. and see superimposed on the iPhone 4S, width is still so unchanged, so that is vertically long. Although the aspect ratio change, because the length of the diagonal is 10.33cm, if eliminating the edge region of the liquid crystal screen, only to measure the length of the display area is actually a little shorter, about 4 inches can still sing with the liquid crystal This was expected possible. I see the difference between the size of the home button height, slightly smaller than the iPhone 4S, and paired with a glass side-by-side comparisons of the iPhone 4S glass itself, and have thinned by commas’

@Vernicularis,
The back being liquid metal would be interesting, but inductive charging works by having AC pass through the space between the coils, and having a piece of metal there would alter the electromagnetic flux lines, so Apple would have to take that into account. A SonicCare toothbrush uses inductive charging.
I like the way you think on the bluetooth converter, but don’t call me Shirley (sorry, couldn’t help myself on that one. Leslie Nielsen, you rock!).
Like I put before, the location of the headset connector is what bothers me about these parts. Any thoughts?
@Michael, Nice discussion, and without being Drudgestruck!

Mind you, Jeff in Everett: a DRUDGESTRIKE, while bringing in tons of trolls, is nice on the revenues every once in a while.

I’m praying this isn’t real. Am I the only one who thinks that phone looks absolutely hideous? I don’t believe this story simply for the fact of how ugly it looks. The two-tone design element in the back is just not apple, and I’d be surprised and very upset if that is the case. Furthermore, elongating the phone without widening it makes it look terrible as well. I feel like if Apple would be increasing the screen size, they would leave the aspect ratio untouched. They keep talking about how much they like the shape of their phone, well keeping the aspect ratio keeps the same shape, elongating it does not.
