New photos of the iPhone 5S' components have been leaked, indicating that Apple's newest mobile device will have a color scheme beyond the simple black and white options available in the past. The images come from Chinese website Weibo and NoWhereElse.fr, and reported on by Apple Insider. The photos compare the component pieces from the iPhone 5S, such as the volume buttons, to the 4S and original iPhone 5. The pieces shown are gold colored, showing that Apple may try to branch out and try different color schemes for their line of mobile phones in the future.
The collected pictures show off the the power button, SIM card tray, volume rocker, and mute switch for the iPhone 5S, with a ruler and comparison pieces of the previous models to show their size. From what the leaked pictures tell us, it looks like Apple will not be changing up the design of their mobile devices anytime soon, as the iPhone 5S components look very similar to their predecessors, with the exception of their color.
Another picture showed some of the internal components for the iPhone 5S, but very little can be determined or interpreted from this image. So far it is hard to say what, if any, special features the 5S will have in store for Apple users.
The original iPhone 5 has been out less than nine months at this point, but rumors about the 5S have circulated around since that device's launch. Many thought Apple would close the gap between new devices and try to put out the 5S in time for summer, but so far there has not been any indication from Apple regarding when they plan to launch the rumored device. Apple likes to reveal new devices at special one-off events, so readers should look out for announcements for iPhone 5S reveal events in the near future.
