iPhone 5S packaging shows slight redesign to home button


One of the most iconic parts of any iOS device is the physical home button, but for the iPhone 5S we might be in for a redesign.

Purported leaked photos posted by Foxconn employees on Sina Weibo show the packaging for the forthcoming iPhone 5S. At first glance there is nothing out of the ordinary. The box is your tradition iPhone box, and the image shows an iPhone shaped device running iOS 7.

Some have suggested that the iPhone 5S might finally do away with the physical home and could even incorporated a fingerprint scanner in to a new touch design. This is a possibility and a great addition for security conscious users, we just hope this isn’t going to be the only big feature from the new iPhone!
