A video reportedly showing Apple's upcoming iPhone 6 charging and booting has been leaked. Despite this, the fact that the device appears to be booting on iOS 7 rather than iOS 8 suggests that the video could be a fake.
A video of the upcoming iPhone 6 has reportedly been leaked online. The video shows what is supposedly a prototype of the device charging and even booting up.
While the video certainly could be real, many suggest that it is in fact fake. One reason for this is that the device boots up on iOS 7, rather than Apple’s new mobile operating system, iOS 8.
This can be shown through the fact that the iTunes logo in the video is blue, rather than orange, as it would be in iOS 8. This, however, does not specifically mean the video is fake, and instead the device could simply be running iOS 7.
The video is one of many that are circling the Internet, building the suspense for Apple’s upcoming device. Apple has sent invitations out for an event on September 9, which is where the tech giant is expected to reveal the new iPhone as well as the company’s first wearable device, the iWatch.
Not only has Apple sent out invitations to the event, but it has also built a three story structure at the location of the event, suggesting that something truly big will take place at the event.
Not only that, but this is the first time in a long time that Apple has held an event at the Flint Center rather than Yerba Buena Center in San Francisco or its own hall at the Apple headquarters.
While we don’t know for sure if the video is real, the design of the device does run in line with previous rumors about the design. Still, we won’t know everything until the iPhone 6 is finally revealed on September 9.
