More rumors and images of the upcoming Apple iPhone 6 have been leaked onto the Internet, showing what appears to be a more iPad like inlaid logo complete with a metal casing that should excited potential customers to pick up the new smartphone when it becomes available later this year.
The new device has already sparked ongoing debates and rumors over what it will look like. Will Apple launch the larger 5.5-inch display in time for the holidays, or will they push it off into the following year? As the time approaches for when the new iPhone 6 will be launched, undoubtedly, new images of the phone are likely to appear online.
In the latest rumor mill hut, new image leaks show a phone with what analysts and observers argue is a much smoother appearance than previous models.
The inlaid logo will be akin to the iPad. The reasoning for why Apple appears to be going this route remains unclear, but some observers point to how the company's MacBook line of laptops allows the logo to illuminate, which could be a nice feature for the iPhone. However, others say it is likely Apple is looking to allow the device to use a number of antennae to connect with other devices in range.
Another theory being pushed is that the inlaid logo can be a convenient means of using the phone for purchases, especially if the company moves forward on its iTune-backed mobile payment system, where the phone could be the means to deliver all those payments in a "tap-and-go" format.
Tech Times reported last week that Apple is reportedly preparing for the manufacturing of the new iPhone and factories could get to work as early as next month.
A Taiwanese news report also indicated Apple is buzzing with rumors over the delayed launch of the phablet-sized model.
