In the past few months we’ve seen an infinite number of rumored shells for Apple’s next generation iPad (iPad 5). And today, we’re adding to the pile. This morning, two new videos hit the web of an alleged iPad 5 and the low-cost ‘iPhone 5C’…
The clips come from notorious part and product-leaker Sonny Dickson, who appears to have spotted and reposted the videos from Youku—an Asian version of YouTube. And, if legitimate, they show a partially assembled iPad 5 and the so-called budget iPhone.
One interesting thing of note here is that unlike the part leak shown in photos earlier this week, which appeared to have a silver Apple logo, the rear shell in the above video appears to have a translucent logo. Don’t get too excited though, it’s still pre-production.
Just like with the iPad 5, reports and rumors regarding the low-cost iPhone have been very consistent. We learned back in January of this year that Apple was planning on bringing a plastic handset to market, with a design likened to that of an iPhone 5 and iPod touch.
And this report has since been backed up by a number of [purported] leaked plastic shells, which we’ve now seen in at least 5 different colors. In fact, it’s believed that Apple will call the handset the ‘iPhone 5C’ or the ‘iPhone Color’ as a way to differentiate the device.
