Is this the iPhone 5?

Taiwanese pop star sets off excitement with pictures of 'new smartphone' with smaller USB port (or is it just another knock off?)


A Taiwanese pop star casually shared photographs of his brand new 'iPhone 5' with his 13.5 million followers this week on Weibo, the Chinese micro-blogging equivalent of Twitter.
'Today I confirmed that the iPhone 5 will be longer and have an aluminum back like the iPad,' Jimmy Lin wrote, sharing that the new Apple phone will indeed have a smaller USB connector, much to many's chagrin.
Though information has been known to leak about Apple's secretive phone updates, many have dismissed Mr Lin's new toy as just another knock off.

Probably false. I've seen this model before as one of the many possibilities of the iPhone 5. We won't know until it's released.

I really hope Apple doesnt go with a smaller USB design. It would end up being very bad for many companies and people.

This has happened many times before, and most of it has ended up being a hoax. The only one that turned out to be real was the iPhone 4 prototype that was left in the Cupertino bar by Apple employees on accident.
