Leaked image confirms button positions for the Apple iPhone 6s

With 48 hours left until the Apple iPhone 6s and the Apple iPhone 6s Plus are unveiled, a leaked image confirms where the buttons will be placed on the iPhone 6s. With the power button on the right side of the device, and volume controls down the left side, there are no changes being made to this year's model concerning the placement of external controls.

Also part of this leak are images showing the SIM removal tool that will come in the box of an iPhone 6s or iPhone 6s Plus that does not come with a pre-installed SIM card. A paperclip is a good substitute if your iPhone does not come with the tool.

By now, the changes coming to the new iPhone models should be as familiar as the back of your hand. Force Touch, possibly called 3D Touch with three tiers of taps, will be the killer new feature for the new handsets. Both will be powered by the new A9 chipset, made using either a 14nm or 16nm process for improved performance and battery life. Series 7000 aluminum, used on the Apple Watch and in aerospace construction, will be employed to prevent a repeat of #bendgate, and the amount of RAM in both units will double to 2GB. Both rear cameras are expected to get a bump to 12MP from the current 8MP, and the front-facing camera will now use a 5MP sensor. Both models will also be made available in Rose Gold.

More leaks lie ahead. Keep your browser right here!

An article to tell us that the positions of the buttons on the iPhone haven't changed since the last one? I'm all about just skipping past the articles I'm not interested in, but you guys are really fishing today. Was anyone expecting otherwise? ***BREAKING NEWS*** Apple moves iPhone buttons to the rear of the phone! Yeah...no.

Fair point about the article. That being said, you'd have to be a paste eating special needs kid to move your buttons to the back of the phone. Oh... Um... Sorry LG. Here, go sit in the corner and have some more paste...

This is only the beginning. Expect Apple related news (good and bad) for the next month (pre announcement, announcement, post announcement, release and post release). I expect one "Gate" issue but not a huge one on the S model. Then in about 5 months expect "real" iPhone 7 rumors. That's going to be the big one right there.

Other leaked image confirms the same beautiful plastic inserts on the back, and same fancy bezels as on the best selling iPhone6, and same huge body to screen size. All the best selling points. Happy now?

Apple always copying. They had to move the power button to the side just like Samsung. Apple is just a shameless copycat company. This phone will look just like that Ativ S from years ago.

If they were Apple they would patent it though. In US this is possible. Especially for Apple. Right? /not s

Samsung patents more useless s**t that never sees light of day than any other mobile company. Nobody reports it (like when Apple files a patent) because media doesn't give a crap about Samsung

Hm, patents the gear s2 in 2013 and look at it now the best smart watch going and showed Apple how it's done, now Apple will always be a copy when it comes to smart watch unlike the phone Please do not go down the sales numbers the apple watch is a mess of an OS and looks crap, if it was Apple who came up with the gear s2 it will have sold that 300000 they was looking for in sales that's 100%

So Apple patented find my friends - and look how well that works. Do you really want to go patent by patent here? This is stupid. Stop taking my posts out of context - it will help you comprehend things if you read what I'm replying to first. Geez...

It only makes sense to put buttons on the side for phones bigger than 4.x inches.

Everyone knows Apple copied the Ativ S, because they steal designs from others. Apple copied the side power button from Samsung. Apple owners are shameless.

Apple iPhones look like all the iPhones before that - Samsung releases a new phone every freaken week - it's will eventually have a phone that looks like any phone ever produced. I really really doubt that Apple was chasing the success of Ativ (lol) to mimick that design. But the success of iPhone 6 may have pushed Samsung to mimic that design as they are loosing big time in the mobile market. THINK LOGICALLY FOR ONCE. stop skimming the surface just to fart a pun out.

How does it feel to be caught and called out as a liar in every post that you make? Does Apple pay you to troll and astroturf? Why do you feel the need to lie and make up stories? You must be blind or just plain ignorant to think that all Apple phones look the same. Apple stole the Ativ S design, but you are too delusional to see it. Just give up, you are just another loser who trolls for Apple.
