Apple's Beats brand in April unveiled the Powerbeats Pro, a redesigned wire-free version of its popular fitness-oriented Powerbeats earbuds.
More Photos of Embedded Rear Logo, Rear Camera Ring of iPhone 6 Surface
Nowhereelse.fr (Google Translate) shares more photos said to be of various iPhone 6 parts, including images of the embedded rear Apple logo, external camera ring, Touch ID home button enclosure, flex cables, and more. The pictures of the embedded rear Apple logo and external camera ring also line up with photos shared last week by luxury modified iPhone vendor Feld & Volk.
Apple has not used an embedded logo on the iPhone since shipping the original iPhone in 2007. It was stated last week that the embedded logo may be made of an incredibly scratch-resistant metal, perhaps even a Liquidmetal alloy. Earlier this year, Apple renewed its rights to use Liquidmetal Technologies' alloy in consumer products, although no other evidence suggests that this logo or any other components are using such a material.
The external camera ring also makes an appearance once again, and may indicate that at least one iPhone 6 model may have a protruding lens. To this point, leaked design drawings, mockups, and rumors have pointed to the 5.5-inch iPhone 6 having a protruding rear lens, while reports have pointed to a flush rear camera for the 4.7-inch iPhone 6. It is possible that a protruding lens on the iPhone 6 would appear similar to the one currently on the iPod touch.
Other components such as the headphone jack, Lightning port connector, and Touch ID home button enclosure among others appear to be similar to those found in the iPhone 5s. Apple is expected to announce the iPhone 6 on September 9, with a launch likely coming shortly afterward. The 4.7-inch iPhone 6 will also possibly be released before the 5.5-inch model, as Apple is said to be experiencing issues with the larger device's display technology and battery life.

It better have one hell of a camera if it's going to have that ugly protruding lens.

Already dreading that camera ring :(
Likely only on the 5.5" model.. thats the one that showed this ring in the 3D rendering leaked months ago..
It does look like the 5.5" will have the OIS, Sapphire, and more storage (64/128GB) and a few other hardware 'perks' over the 4.7"..
I have a sneaky suspicion they are going the way they have with the Mackbook line..
We used to have
- Macbook Classic (White plastic)
- Macbook Air
- Macbook Pro
I think we're going the below with $50 bump between storage versions
- iPhone Classic (4", 16/32GB) $99/$149
- iPhone Air (4.7" 32/64GB) $199/$249
- iPhone Pro(5.5" 64/128GB) $299/$349
I say the $50 bump because they just did that with the iPod Touch line a month ago..
It's lining up to look like this anyway...

Is that a camera lens protruding from your iPhone, or is it just happy to see me? :cool:

They did it on the iPod touch 5th gen. There was no problem. Just get over it.

That's it! I'm done reading stupid posts on screws, logos, antennas and openings in metal casing. It's a smartphone, not an alien spaceship. :mad:

That's the product that you buy because you're too poor to buy the real deal, or because you're buying it for someone else (IE, a child that you don't trust enough to give an iPhone to).
Condescending much ?
I bought a Touch 5 because I wanted one.
