iPhone parts supplier TVC Mall has posted some new battery, camera, and audio flex cable parts which are allegedly for the unreleased iPhone 5, reports MacRumors.

The iPhone 5 battery looks similar to the iPhone 4's, its label shows 3.7V and 5.3Whr while the iPhone 4's battery shows 3.7V and 5.25Whr. The new part number is 616-0580; whereas, the old iPhone 4's part numbers are 616-0513 and 616-0521. The connector on the new battery is rotated in comparison to the old battery.


The iPhone 5 back camera module looks similar to the current iPhone 4 camera which could dispel rumors that the device will get dual LED flash. The iPhone 5 is expected see a bump from a 5MP camera to a 8MP camera.


Finally, TVC also lists a Audio Jack Flex cable which looks different from the iPhone 4's.
