iPhone 6 fever is in full swing with reports of the unannounced device appearing on an almost daily basis. Mockups of the smartphone and accessories are on display at the Hong Kong Electronics Fair.
Now that Samsung has launched the Galaxy S5, all eyes and attention has shifted to Apple's upcoming iPhone 6. Apple will finally give iPhone fans what they've been asking for, a smartphone with a larger display. The company is actually expected to launch two iPhone 6 models; a 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch model. The 4.7-inch iPhone 6 will allow Apple to better compete with smartphones like the Samsung Galaxy S5 and HTC One, which both have screens in the 5-inch area, while the 5.5-inch iPhone 6 will compete in the phablet arena with devices like the Galaxy Note 3 and HTC One max.
There have already been multiple leaks of what the 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch iPhone 6 will look like thanks to leaked schematics of both devices. Accessory makers in Hong Kong have used the schematics to create iPhone 6 mockups to allow them to get a jumpstart on designing cases for the smartphones.
A video and new images have come out of the 2014 Hong Kong Electronics Fair that show various accessories like lightning cables and cases that have been designed with the iPhone 6 in mind.
The video also shows an iPhone 6 mockup to give attendees an up close and personal look at Apple's upcoming smartphone. The device's measurements match the dimensions listed in the leaked schematics and show a larger iPhone with very thin bezels and rectangular volume buttons instead of the circular ones found on the iPhone 5s. The mockup also matches previous claims that Apple has moved the power button on the iPhone 6 to the right hand side of the device to make it easier to access with one hand.
The back of the iPhone 6 mockup also shows another design change that matches information found in the leaked schematics. Instead of the oval-like camera flash found on the iPhone 5s, the iPhone 6 is believed to use a circular flash next to its rear camera.
While there's no way of knowing if what we're seeing in the video will actually be the final design of the iPhone 6, it is the first physical mockup we have seen of the device using the measurements listed in the schematics. You can be rest assured this won't be the last time we see the iPhone 6 before Apple unveils it.
