Okay okay, it’s not a dummy, but what you are about to see is a prototype of the iPhone 8 based on leaked specs.
Since its inception, we have heard plenty about what Apple’s anniversary model is going to entail, but just like every other iPhone generation they have released, we won’t really know until, well, we see it for ourselves.
The company is rumoured to be indecisive about the final version, as well as holding concerns over a few more technical issues like, as Mashable reports, “how to embed a thumbprint sensor beneath its touted OLED display”.
One source, though, shared a set of images “purporting to show a rough mockup” of the final design:
So what did you just look at? I’m going to hand the mic over to Mashable for this one:
The device shown in the pics, which the site obtained “exclusively” from unnamed sources, was supposedly based on schematics leaked from the factories that will actually produce the devices. It’s not a working model or even a prototype — just a physical proof of concept.
Though chances that this is the actual design are slim, the rough mockup shows some features we’ve been expecting based on other leaks: an edge-to-edge screen with no visible bezels, no physical home button, and an all glass and stainless steel sandwich design that harkens back to the iPhone 4.
The mockup’s rear has the expected vertically-oriented dual camera rig, but what’s more important is what we don’t see: a rear fingerprint scanner, like Samsung had to settle for on the Galaxy S8.
Still, there’s absolutely no way to confirm whether this is the iPhone 8 – we will just have to wait until September for when Digicape has it in stock. Yay.
