Leaked photo shows partially assembled iPhone 4S/5 components with Apple A5 chip

“Late last month, we reported on photos of what appeared to be the logic board for the iPhone 4S or 5, showing a form factor for the board more similar in appearance to the CDMA iPhone 4 than the GSM iPhone 4, as well as space for Apple’s rectangular A5 system-on-a-chip,” Eric Slivka reports for MacRumors.

“phoneArena.com now points to a new image that has surfaced on Chinese microblogging site Weibo appearing to show that same logic board with all chips in place and at least partially assembled,” Slivka reports. “A connection to what appears to be a white iPhone 4-like front panel/LCD display is visible, as are a battery and several other flex cables from the device.”

Slivka reports, “The image clearly shows an A5 chip, which is of course expected for the iPhone 5.”
