iPhone 6 Leak Puts Display In Focus: Thinner Bezel, Bigger Screen Coming [Rumors]

We may have our best shot yet at the iPhone 6's display.

BGR reports credible photos from Taiwanese blog Apple.club.tw have surfaced showing the upcoming Apple smartphone's actual display and other internal display parts — giving an even clearer idea of the device than previous leaks of its alleged front panel.

Like the earlier leaks, what appears to be the 4.7-inch sixth-generation model will feature a thinner bezel compared vs. the iPhone 5S, along with rounded edges and an opening for Touch ID, its front-facing camera and ambient light sensor. Different flex cables than those we saw in the 5S are also pictured with Apple logos.

The images show displays for both black and white models.

A convincing video from Youtube user iCrackUriDevice shows the iPhone 6's alleged rear housing for the 4.7-inch model, 9to5Mac reports. 

As the website notes, this is clearly not a final production unit since it does not feature the "iPhone" text, but it does fall in line with previous leaks of the alleged device. In the video, the back housing is shown compared to the iPhone 5S with the same antenna breaks shown earlier.

Meanwhile, one of the iPhone 6's hottest rumored features might not be a feature after all, CNET reports.

In a report published Monday, LEDinside analysts from market researcher Trendforce noted that they have not seen enough orders for sapphire glass passing through the supply chains to suggest the device will have a large-scale rollout in time for the September release anticipated for the 4.7-inch model:

"The sapphire material is still being applied in new generation Apple smartphones camera lenses and fingerprint recognition readers. If the new iPhone keeps up Apple's previous smartphone models hot selling records, sapphire demands will be driven by the smartphone's applications till the end of this year. However, the much anticipated sapphire cover glass remains missing from the picture. Analysis of the iPhone 6 supply chain indicates related component suppliers need to ship products to OEMs for assembly in June 2014 to meet the September launch date. Yet, the research institute did not discover demands for smartphone cover glass. The sapphire glass version new iPhone will be issued in limited volumes this year, mostly because sapphire ingot manufacturers yield rates were lower than forecasts and issues involved in sapphire glass processing."

The analysts did add, however, that it is still possible Apple could opt to release an iPhone with sapphire glass in limited numbers.

Specs rumors for the sixth-generation iPhone include an Apple A8, Near Field Communication (NFC) for mobile payments, Touch ID and an improved camera. The same color options offered in the iPhone 5S (Silver, Gold and Space Gray) have also been tipped in a recent alleged leak.
