With Apple in talks with the leading Chinese mobile network carrier I am not surprised that we have seen A leaked photo of a so called iPhone 5 running on the Chinese mobile network. Now to me this looks like a total load of bull, the picture is very unclear as it has a massive flash mark in the middle and it looks very much like a 3Gs with the rounded corners. Although it does have a front facing camera and looks to be running a yet to be released firmware version. Like always I would take these rumours and pictures with a pinch of salt but here is a quote from the source why they are so convinced it is a new iPhone 5

The phone appears to run baseband software with version number 06.10.01, which hasn’t been released yet. It also lacks an IMEI number, just like an iPhone 4 prototype we spotted on eBay. Evaluation devices normally have no IMEI number
