The folks at SonnyDickson.com have done it again, revealing yet another fascinating first-time leak related to Apple’s upcoming iPhone 5S. As the post notes, “up to this point, it has widely been thought that the iPhone 5S will only come in 3 colors: Gold, Slate, and white with silver trim.” But according to a new report on the site, the device will actually come in a 4th “grey” or “graphite” color. And they’ve got the pictures to back it up!
A few of the nicer images can be found below, including a few showing the grey or graphite 5S backing next to the gold iPhone 5S. While their authenticity cannot be verified, most pundits agree that SonnyDickson.com leaks to this point appear to be fairly credible. We’ll all find out for sure soon enough!
Recently, well-sourced analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, iMore editor in chief Rene Ritchie, 9to5Mac reporter Mark Gurman, and MG Seigler of TechCrunch have added additional weight to the idea of a gold iPhone, which is practically confirmed at this point. The device is also expected to feature up to 128GB of storage, significant under-the-hood upgrades (including a new custom Apple A7 chip with 64-bit processing), dual-LED Flash, a larger battery, a vastly improved camera, and more. The device is expected to launch sometime this fall, with the most recent reports suggesting it will be unveiled at a September 10 media event.
All of this is in addition to the leaked components that have already surfaced showing shat such a device would look like (many of which have also leaked from SonnyDickson.com). Previous reports have also all-but confirmed that the new high-end iPhone will launch in an additional gold-like color, and will feature We’ll keep you updated as we hear more!
