A new video gives us an idea of how the
iPhone 6S will compare to the iPhone 6 in
terms of design.
Lewis Hilsenteger of Unbox Therapy, who is
perhaps best known for uncovering the so-
called "Bendgate" scandal around the iPhone
6 Plus, just posted a new video that
supposedly shows the iPhone 6S back plate
(gold, right) alongside that of the iPhone 6
(grey, left).
Sonny Dickson, who has posted accurate
images of unreleased Apple products in the
past, sent the component to Hilsenteger.
Although the two panels look identical,
Hilsenteger examined them both in detail
and measured them to illustrate the
differences. The iPhone 6S is ever so slightly
larger than the iPhone 6, according to
Hilsenteger's measurements. The iPhone 6S
is said to be 138.26mm x 67.16mm, while the
iPhone 6 is 138.09mm x 66.91mm.
This change in size is important, says
Hilsenteger, because it could prevent an
issue such as Bendgate from happening with
Apple's new phone.
The back panel shown in the video looks a
lot like one in photos previously published
by 9to5Mac's Mark Gurman. It's another
indication that the iPhone 6S will look almost
exactly like the iPhone 6.
We're expecting to learn more about the
iPhone 6S in September, since Apple is
rumored to be planning a media event on
Sept. 9.
