iPhone 6, 5S News: Design Components Leaked Show Internal Overhaul for the iPhone 5S & New Control Features for iPhone 6?

The fall launch for Apple's newest smartphone to date, the iPhone 5S, seems to be gearing up for the usual same-on-the-outside, tweaks-on-the-inside approach.

However, due to potentially the major releases of smarpthones this year and a potential smartphone battle as bigwigs Samsung, LG, and HTC may be planning to share the limelight with Apple's release, there may just be a major overhaul for Apple's next iPhone.

According to BGR, obtained leaked photos of redesigned internal structure of the iPhone 5S suggests that an overhaul that may include loud-speaker and ear-speaker brackets, a Wi-fi flex cable ribbon, a vibrating motor assembly, and a SIM card tray, among the many changes.

One of the potentially major changes is that, based on the leaked photos, the SIM card tray was shown in two other colors, pewter and a matte beige or gold.

BGR highlights the possibility that this can mean different color variations for the iPhone 5S, as previously speculated.

These are just the new speculations for the iPhone 5S, with other reports involving internal changes such as a fingerprint scanner, the AuthenTec technology, faster processor, and a rumored better camera with 12-megapixels and better low-light capabilities.

Potential new control feature for iPhone 6?

An Apple patent that was recently reported by Phones Review suggests possible smarter control features for the upcoming iPhone 5S and also the iPhone 6.

According to the report, the features would allow for taps to become command gestures to activate and operate the phone's many features. Basically, the new functions would be able to distinguish the different sound inputs so that they would execute different functions.

So this would mean that a different tap in a different area of the phone would execute a different command or operation compared to a tap in another area or a scratch in another area of the iPhone 6.

Phones Review juxtaposes this report to the possibility of a wrap-around phone that was also patented by Apple, ideally for the iPhone 6. This variability in commands would certainly be an innovation in terms of design for the next iPhone iteration.
