iPhone 5 design drawings spied on web

iPhone 4 lookalike

Engineering schematics for the upcoming iPhone 5 have slipped out onto the web.

That's certainly what the white-on-black wireframe pictures are claimed to be by Asian site iDeals China to be.

They drawings are said to have been produced for case makers to give them a basis on which to sculpt their own offerings.

Indeed, the pics show what looks like an iPhone 4 with a thin bumper wrapped around the sides top and bottom.

A render also shows a screen that goes right to the edge of the handset. The display is also taller, coming closer to both the home button and the earpiece speaker, to ensure the same aspect ration as the current model's screen.

It's a look that matches the alleged iPhone 5 faceplate that appeared in another snap recently. ®

More importantly

Are they ditching iOS for Symbian?

meh....

What it wont come with is a realistic price tag. Even my macbook Pro owning partner is looking at android units to replace a Nokia (that hasn't lasted well) and has discounted the bruised fruit as being ridiculously expensive for what it is.
