iDealsChina has received design drawings that they believe to be for the upcoming iPhone 5. The drawings show a larger edge-to-edge screen.
We just got what appears to be mold engineering drawings for iPhone 5. These would be used by case designers to create plastic, TPU, aluminum, silicone and leather cases. A while back we hear rumors that iPhone 5 would have a curved back but these images show iPhone 5 with the same form factor as iPhone 4 but with an edge to edge screen.

Edge to edge screen means no bumpers. At least bumber case manufacturers will have to change the design because the actual design may cover a part of the screen.

this clearly shows the iPhone will still have the same design (glass front and back with bezel) and drops the rumors of the aluminum back.
