“Whether it’s an ‘iPhone 4S’ or an ‘iPhone 5,’ new components show an updated iPhone with a design similar to the current-generation model, while the packaging for a third-party case refers to a ‘4S’ model,” AppleInsider reports.
“The latest next-generation iPhone components were leaked to Indian iPhone repair site iRepair.in and shared with AppleInsider. They show a front glass screen the same size and design as the currently available iPhone 4,” AppleInsider reports. “Internal components, however, suggest the screen is accompanied by new hardware, making it a version of the handset that has not yet been announced.”
AppleInsider reports, “The new parts come as a third-party Otterbox case for a next-generation handset, labeled ‘iPhone 4S,’ were leaked on Thursday by iPhone hacker ‘Chronic.’ The case itself is not shown, but the back of the packaging appears to show the volume buttons on the right side of the device, above the SIM card slot. He also claimed that Otterbox has produced 3 million cases for its initial run for the ‘iPhone 4S.'”

I can’t wait for the first Tuesday of October to get here so we can stop being bombarded by all of these iPhone 4S/5/case rumors. I’m not even excited any more, just getting numb to it all.
