Apple has officially announced its big press event for September; however, that isn't stopping the iPhone 6 leaks from coming in. New photos posted to weibo show a rear shell with color matched antenna breaks.
The antenna breaks seen in previous leaks have often been criticized as ugly design elements. The color matched breaks are a bit more subtle giving the shell a more attractive appearance.
As with previous leaks, the shell features rounded edges, an embedded logo, a relocated power button, redesigned speaker holes, and an opening for a round True Tone flash.
What do you think of the new shell? Let us know in the comments. You may also what to check out these two takes on what the iPhone 6 rear shell will look like.

Not very cheap, sapphire screen, even more performance, and maybe new material for the shell= final cost! but no it's not greed. Samsung does the same thing but because it's way cheaper, its materials is also cheap.

Or comparing to how much thought is put into a gadget and how rare the materials and what it does it. There are thousands of geniuses even if Apple is involved. Look at the vsauce2 channel where mind blown videos are, tell me they're gone after that.

I'm really sad, I waited so long for the iPhone 6. I hope they fix this with the iPhone 6s, I don't want to wait 2 more years for iPhone 7. Steve Jobs must be turning in his grave. The back is so ugly, how was this approved?

Over a fucking design?!? Why would you give up your hopes that quick, besides just cover it up or maybe apple has a reason it's like this just like past products, but come the hell on, as long as Apple remains in their victories, I never turn.

Can't be more ugly. Uglier with round edges. Little difference from Samsung now.
