- The images were published by French site Nowhereelse.fr
- They show a mould with curved edges that's thinner than the iPhone 5S
- It is also larger than previous models - hinting further at a bigger screen
- Rumours claim suppliers are gearing up to begin work on production of a larger screen as early as next month
Front panels of the rumoured iPhone 6 leaked online earlier this month, so it was only a matter of time before the back panel made an appearance.
Photos of the supposed dummy moulds appear to show Apple's next device with a larger and thinner case than the current flagship iPhone 5S.
They don’t hint at anything that hasn’t been seen in previous leaks, but they do add to a catalogue of evidence suggesting Apple is heading into Samsung’s territory with its new design.
It is unclear where the moulds have come from - and they may not even relate to an upcoming Apple handset - but the position of the volume buttons and camera seem to mirror current models.
None of the photos feature dimension information.
Nowhereelse.fr said: ‘With its curved edges to frame these two buttons for adjusting the volume size, and the elongated protruding optical picture accompanied by a circular LED flash, this model shows that overall aesthetic lines and features recently revealed by multiple technical plans seems to turn confirm the design of the iPhone 6.’
Pictures claiming to be the front panel of Apple's upcoming device were leaked on Chinese site Weibo earlier this month.
