Apple will launch the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus at some point in mid-September, with the devices already in production, according to some reports. As a result, it’s not surprising that more and more pictures showing alleged iPhone 6s components are popping up all over the web.

MUST-READ: Why does every Android phone company think it can be Apple?

After two recent leaks showed us the metal case and the glass screen from the iPhone 6s, a new set of images published by French blog NowhereElse displays various other components that are supposedly from Apple’s next-generation iPhones.

The following images show various flex cables that are similar to the iPhone 6’s corresponding components, but, as you can easily see, they have been tweaked to occupy even less space.

Furthermore, an image shows what seem to be rear camera rings — you know, that camera ring that’s slightly protruding outwards from the rear.

It’s not clear whether this year’s iPhone will also have a similar protruding camera, or whether Apple fixed that “issue” by making the device slightly thicker. According to this leak, however, reports that the new iPhone 6s camera would sit flush with the back of the phone seem to be off base.

Finally, a different image shows us what appears to be the metal enclosure of the Home button, painted in a gold hue.
