Artist draws renders of new Apple iPhone 5S home button

Now that a former biometrics executive says that the home button part leaked for the Apple iPhone 5Sis indeed genuine, it is now time to consider exactly what the enhanced home button might look like. Pictures of the leaked packaging for the Apple iPhone 5S show a circle around the handset's home button which one would have to think has to do with the fingerprint scanner.

3D designer Martin Hajek has come up with some renders of what the new home button might look like on the Apple iPhone 5S. We have put together a slideshow of some of those images and they do seem to match what the leaked iPhone 5S box shows.

The fingerprint scanner is supposed to make unlocking the Apple iPhone 5S quicker and easier while also allowing users to identify themselves in order to make safe mobile payments using the handset. Speculation has the scanner being this year's show-stopping new feature when the phone is unveiled this coming Tuesday, September 10th.
