Leaked document details iPhone 5 components

29.08.2012
The components for Apple's new iPhone that have been leaked online appear to be legitimate.

New Zealand PC World has obtained a document sent to a New Zealand retailer detailing the iPhone 5's components. The components pictured in the document match the images already leaked by repair company iResQ.

The document comes from a trusted source, and was originally sent by a reputable supplier of iPhone components in China.

The document shows the iPhone's two-tone rear panel, as rumoured. The black version of the iPhone will come in grey/black, and the white in white/silver. The phone appears to be a similar shape to the iPhone 4/4S despite its obviously taller screen; however, the document does not say how large the screen is.

The battery is the same as the one pictured in iResQ's images, and the power/dock connector is smaller than in previous versions of the iPhone, in line with rumours of a 9-pin connector.

There are also several flexible sensors that appear to be the ones shown in iResQ's images.
