The plastic iPhone has leaked enough times now that there’s nothing particularly unique about another leaked image – except for the one that leaked on Weibo today showing FCC markings on the back of the shell. Previous leaks of the handset have shown the same design, but only with theApple and iPhone logos.
The designof the handsetfeatured in theimage is the same as theone we’ve seen several times now, not theleast of which was thegallery that appeared comparingthe plastic model to the iPhone 5. The speaker holes, microphone, and such are the same, with theonly notable differencebeing metal edgingaround the headphoneand lightning ports.
Unfortunately, no details about the handsetwas provided with theWeibo post, but the image is interesting nonetheless.According to a leak that surfaced earlier this month – also on Weibo – theplastic iPhone will be available in two models, bothof which look the same but feature different hardware and will come in at different price points.
Reportedly, the lesser of thetwo models is codenamed Zenevo, and will feature a Samsung H5P dual processor and 1GB of RAM, as well as Bluetooth 4.0 and FDD 4G connectivity. The other model, according to tipsters, is codenamed Zegato/Bertone and will feature an H6P processor and 1GB of RAM, as well as Bluetooth 4.0 and TDD 4G LTE support.
Also leaked today was a rumor that thehandset would be announcedon September 6, but word has surfaced since then stating this isn’t the case. As with all the rumors, take it all with a grain of salt. Check out thetimeline below for more rumors that have cropped up on recent weeks.
