If the recent report holds true, we could be seeing the next iPhone launch sooner than expected. The report of iPhone 5 release date hits the web after the supposedly images of the next iPhone leaked via KitGuru.

The images you can see above or below were taken off of a “test sample” of the upcoming iPhone, claims KitGuru. Though the post now seems to be removed from the site, which leaves us believing it to be a rumor of course.

Speculations have been rife in the smartphone industry that the upcoming iPhone 5 will have a larger screen coupled with modified casing and micro-dock. The leaked images have also suggested that next iPhone could come sporting a liquid metal back.

Apple, however, has widely been rumored to unveil the iPhone 5 in either September or October. A report comes straight from KnowYourMobile via “reliable industry source” claimed that Apple will likely be holding a keynote on August 7 to announce the iPhone 5. The Apple iOS is also expected to launch at same time frame.

Oh, doesn’t matter, well, should I tell you that a Chinese site, namely Taobao, started taking preorder of iPhone 5 recently, according to a report.
