Where is the bloody phone????

    Fake. Touch ID is in the power button on the side of the device. Back is made of glass and not aluminum. I mean, look at it, do you even need someone to say this is fake? Would Apple release this, knowing what their iPhones look like for the last 10 years? Sigh

      rex, 07 Aug 2017damn. ugly back.. why didn't they put fingerprint in the ap... moreAgreed! It's a missed opportunity. If the photo is real, of course.

      And with a logo doubling as the reader, every phone case would still show the Apple logo.

          That picture is taken in a cargo terminal. A worker saw this coming from Foxconn and going somewhere and thought it'd be cool to open it. Apple should check the various logitistics companies that are involved in the supply chain... And make sure he gets fired and fined.

                The back panel does not look good. Because of the Finger print sensor.

                    My guess is what ever shit came out from Apple the Apple fans will still think is innovative.🤣

                        So... where are those copy-cat zealots to point the very obvious Nexus 5 (and forward) finger-print reader position.

                            Not sure what to say to that rear. Looks very minimalist. I see nothing else. Nothing ground breaking or anything, yet.

                              Kangal, 07 Aug 2017Doesn't matter. The iPhone just has to remain relevant, th... moreI can completely agree, just that the iPhone 7 also fixed another problem: unappealing back design, with fat plastic stripes and a non-flush battery hump which felt like it was misplaced. But you can see that they save up extras for the iPhone 8.

                              And then, the iPhone 8s will fix fingerprint, and there is still much room for improvements: bringing the sensors, front camera and speakers below the display for one, then they could additionally to that implement a quad-speaker setup like on the iPads. If they don't implement it in the iPhone 8, they can bring the 120Hz display, and microLED will sometime replace OLED as well. They can make a new form factor like we're used to from the iPhone 5 with sharp instead of round edges. Dual or even triple front camera is an option: normal, wide-angle, BW; of course a price drop from the 8 has to happen, when they made up that R&D cost. If they would at the same time include AirPods, it would really up the value. The aluminum or steel frame could be replaced with Titanium to make it more durable. 7nm processor, in-house GPU, newest Bluetooth standard, even faster and more storage are standard tech upgrades.
                              It's fun to imagine the features of the next iPhones.

                                Rear awkwardly placed touch id makes me wanna vomit even more, i guess it's not enough being ugly only from the inside.

                                    Even though it is not as pretty, I think fingerprint on the back is better than none, as "under the display" doesn't work yet. Function over form
