iPhone 5S pictured on Chinese production line?

Although still far from official, a selection
of claimed iPhone 5S pictures have hit
the web, seemingly showing Apple’s
next-generation handset on the
production line in China.
Hinting at a potentially imminent
unveiling, the mooted iPhone 5S pictures
show the front panel of a device
remarkably similar to that of the current
iPhone 5 , suggesting Apple’s seventh
addition to the iPhone line will feature
only minor updates over its predecessor.
Hitting the web courtesy of Chinese
news outlet SJBBS, the collection of 14
claimed iPhone 5S pictures show the
handset in various stages of construction,
with the only discernible difference being
a change in the handset’s vibration
enabling motor, hardly the headline NFC,
improved camera or larger screen hoped
for by many.
Whilst it has been widely reported that
Apple will unveil an incremental iPhone
5S release ahead of the eagerly awaited
iPhone 6 arrival, the latest leaked
images, which coincide with these
reports, should be taken with a hearty
pinch of salt given their less than official
route.
iPhone 5S Rumours
Said to be a device that will play host to
a selection of hardware features Apple
wished to incorporate with the iPhone 5
but could not implement in time, iPhone
5S rumours have been rife ever since the
current Apple blower entered the realms
of reality back in September.
With the iPhone 5S release date having
been tipped as everything from Apple’s
annual September release to a surprise
Q1 arrival, reports prior to Christmas
suggested that “facing low yield rates in
the production of the iPhone 5, Apple
has accelerated the certification
processes for related parts and
components for the iPhone 5S.”
Whilst the iPhone 6 is expected to see
Apple once again add inches to its
smartphone line and make a jump in
screen size, latest iPhone 5S rumours
have claimed the next-gen device will
play host to the same 4-inch display
introduced by the iPhone 5.
Far from a carbon copy, it is believed
that unlike the iPhone 5, the iPhone 5S
will feature a new “super HD camera, a
better battery, and NFC.” What’s more,
building on the black and white models
of Apple’s existing smartphone and
tablet lines, the iPhone 5S has been
tipped to land in “6-8 colours” much like
the 2012 iPod touch .
