If Sept. 10 is too long of a wait to see how the iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C look next to each other, leakers are more than happy to help spoil Tim Cook's surprise with a sneak peek.
Side-by-side photos of what are billed as the two forthcoming Apple smartphones appear on the website of known Apple leaker Sonny Dickson.
"You're looking at our most extensive iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C part leak yet," claims Dickson on his blog.
There are a total of 68 photos of the nearly complete iPhone hardware, with up-close pics of what he alleged are parts like the screen, back housing, SIM tray and front and back cameras.
It's what's on the inside that matters
Sonny admits that while nearly everything is intact, both the iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C in these photos are missing the all-important logic board.
That means there's no photographic evidence of the full iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C specs in these new pictures.
Nevertheless, previous rumors fill in the gaps, pointing to an speedy Apple A7 processor for the iPhone 5S. That's a step up over the A6 SoC used in the current iPhone 5.
The higher-end smartphone is also said to contain a fingerprint sensor and NFC technology, but it may stick with the 1GB of RAM and an aluminum body.
This is where the cheap iPhone is said to differ. Instead of an aluminum frame, it will reportedly be made of plastic to bring the cost down. Internally, the iPhone 5C specs are thought to resemble the iPhone 5.
All eyes on Sept. 10
These latest iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C photos offer a clearer view of what Apple's next device will look like, far better than the quality of the blurry snapshots from factory floors in China.
However, we won't know the final specs of the two smartphones until the expected launch event on Sept. 10.
On that date, we're bound to know it all of the vital details, including how much the new iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C will cost.
