Feld & Volk claims to have gotten a hold of a 'real iPhone 6 body' and is sharing video and photos of the rear shell in silver and a new darker black.

So it finally happens. We got this real iPhone 6 body. We will show it to you with the most popular news website about Apple-tech. Check us for upd. iPhone 6 is much closer than you think.

MacRumors offers some background on how Feld & Volk came across these parts:

"Feld & Volk says it has been working with the same factories that make spare parts for Apple products for more than six years, enabling it to get a head start on modifying the device for its customers. Feld & Volk has been using sapphire crystal on its high-end modified iPhones for several years, and says that its sapphire suppliers are the same ones Apple has begun working with more recently."

The part as shown isn't quite complete. There are still some holes to be punched out and some screw holes are from the manufacturing process and would be removed in later steps when the part is cleaned up.

Apple is reportedly set to release the iPhone 6 in September. It's believed the company will sell a 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch version of the device; however, it's unclear if both will launch at the same time.

Will Otterbox be able to make a cover for it that will protect it?

gamerscul9870 - July 11, 2014 at 5:02am

Yes. There were cases revealed before for the 6.

No speaker grill on case!!! Fake!!!

gamerscul9870 - July 10, 2014 at 6:12pm

That's the point. The shell has been revealed, not where the final camera, speakers, mic, etc. is.

Yucon - July 10, 2014 at 11:28pm

Big deal, the speaker grill is just some holes.

Hot chocolate - July 10, 2014 at 8:51am

there is no speaker Grille in this...

Noooooooooooo pleeeeeeeease not side power button, it's so Samsung!

gamerscul9870 - July 9, 2014 at 9:47pm

What choice do they have for one hand use? Other phones have it to, only iPhone doesn't have side power button.

M!Do Space - July 9, 2014 at 9:51pm

But that never was a problem! Have you faced any problem dealing with top power button? I guess not, because let's face it, when you click it that means you already done using your phone, so it's okay to adjust your hand to click the top power button! Plus, I swear I've never handed a Samsung phone or caught it without getting the power button pressed by mistake!

gamerscul9870 - July 9, 2014 at 9:52pm

Then just pass it on by the palm, like slide it into the other hand.

M!Do Space - July 9, 2014 at 9:54pm

There will be a risk of falling since its shape is more like a soap bar with those silly rounded corners! (speaking on Samsung devices)

gamerscul9870 - July 9, 2014 at 10:00pm

Then grab it by the top and bottom even if the sides close to it count then lay it in the other hand.

M!Do Space - July 9, 2014 at 10:51pm

And why should it be so hard?! I'm using iPhone since 2011 and handing it was never easier!

gamerscul9870 - July 9, 2014 at 10:53pm

It's how you're used to it, these are tips I am thinking the best I can go solve the issue, you have to at least grab somewhere without touching the button. I once owned a side button phone but every time I grabbed it, I didn't turn it off or didn't even touch the button.

cciev - July 9, 2014 at 11:18pm

Power button could be anywhere. who cares. They need to implement a double tap on screen for wake like the nokia lumia.

gamerscul9870 - July 9, 2014 at 11:21pm

Why? Saying "hey Siri" wakes it up but also immediately starts a command, so does the home button but it's just an alternate tap, but what purpose does double tap serve?

iHA69 - July 9, 2014 at 7:28pm

That looks more like it

sameisung - July 9, 2014 at 6:49pm

the flash will be from the apple logo. dont mind me im just a troller

gamerscul9870 - July 9, 2014 at 9:20pm

Unless you judge apples style and stuff they do.

Josh Newton - July 9, 2014 at 6:39pm

The antena breaks are on the outside but not the inside no production. Nice though.

MEDA - July 9, 2014 at 6:12pm

Camera or flash hole are missing . !!

gamerscul9870 - July 9, 2014 at 6:22pm

That's the point, leaked look of what the shell yet, some parts aren't finalized yet.

Luix - July 9, 2014 at 6:27pm

Probably the camera & flash will be in the apple logo hole.

gamerscul9870 - July 9, 2014 at 6:31pm

No, it's like rearranging everything. The logo is used for notifications that it lights up what it is to match the app icon.

gamerscul9870 - July 9, 2014 at 6:04pm

Ugly or not, still buying.

gamerscul9870 - July 9, 2014 at 6:03pm

Damn that's the thinnest I've seen yet!
