There is a Russian video which looks pretty real - if it really is a fake - it's an incredibly detailed and very time consuming one.....

A video and photos have appeared on Chinese websites purporting to be "real" shots of the iPhone 6 – just days ahead of Apple's latest iStuff showcase on September 9. Vulture Weekend notes that this is potentially pure tittle tattle and understands only too well that on the internet nobody knows you're a dog. Yada yada ... But …
After hiring all these design gurus, the top of the phone still looks like crap... How about combining those tiny holes into one area? Or put the sensors in the edge of the glass like nokia managed 5 years ago with the n900 (granted, behind the plastic screen, not glass)
When the iPhone 4 came out I did feel that it was a beautiful thing. I never bought an iPhone, I felt that the screen was too small. I think the screen size is a large improvement, it's what the market wants, but I can't help thinking that the new iPhone looks like a bastard lovechild of Apple and HTC. To me it's lost it's sexiness in design.
When Apple, the people who really got this party started, when they start imitating their cheaper competitors, what happens then?
This one's going to be an interesting one to watch.
Best reason to buy Apple as far as I see is that they have much more stringent app store 'curation'.
Best reason to buy Android is the exceptional bang for buck on offer and the huge variety of choices.
Best reason to buy Windows Phone is.... erm.... hmmm. To 'think different'? :P
Author thinks some video is fake because guy is hiding serial no. but i think he is hiding serial no. to protect himself, so handset can't be traced back to a person or manufacturing plant.
i remember because of similar video leak of HTC Mobile by a kid on twitter they traced him with serial no. and fired his father.
Agree with that. The worst looking iPhone since the 4 (I wasn't a fan of the plastic 3G / 3GS, though I didn't hate it). Even prefer the 5C to these mock-ups.
Guess I'll still be buying one, though - I want the 128GB and can hide the ugly with a case and looks aren't everything after all - but if they don't have that storage option I may well stick with the 5S for a cycle.
Come on, with the amount of downvotes re anything non-derogatory said about Apple, your commentard demographic obviously sleeps easily without all this pre-launch hype, gush & speculation.
Really, who cares? It's a phone, just that. And it's not out, yet.
And I don't even mind Apple myself.
Catch some rays, down some suds, chat up up <person of interest>.
Write up launch review @ launch, plenty sufficient.
We're going to get the real scoop in less than 48 hours. Why bother checking these out, when we can't even be certain they're real? A leak is a leak when it is a month or two in advance. When it is a day or two in advance it seems like a giant waste of time to follow Chinese and Russian links and pore over them trying to find evidence that it is faked.
Not to mention you're probably a bit more likely to pick up malware from these sites than you would from Apple's site streaming Tuesday's presentation (if one thinks it is that important to find out right away, rather than just waiting for the 500 articles summing up the presentation that will be available Tuesday evening like I will)

The parts have been leaking for months. There were photos three months ago of a fully constructed one. I think this is the real deal.
I'll still watch tomorrows announcement though purely because I believe Tim Cook will give it the old 'do we have time for one more thing?' then look at his wrist as the iWatch appears on screen and the entire audience swoon at the same time
I have no interest in this new phone. No way I will spend £600+ on a new device.
I am very happy with my iphone 5, now 2 years old. Its a really good phone for me. Its fast, great camera and browser, OK email, great maps. Nothing to fix.
OK, who am I kidding: Double the battery life, make the camera awesome, a bigger/better screen, a 65bit processor (1 better than 64). Must resist...
...and wait for the 6s.
