“Steve Hemmerstoffer at Nowhereelse.fr claims to have obtained the image from ‘the catalog of a [Chinese] retailer who sells it as component replacement / repair for the future successor to the current iPhone 5,’ Arnold reports. “Hemmerstoffer points out that ‘unlike the iPhone 5, the camera and flash are connected by a single sheet.’ This suggests the camera module depicted in the image is intended for the iPhone 5S which — according to previous rumors — will feature a dual LED flash component that is independent of the camera module.”
