Speculation surrounding Apple’s upcoming iPhone 5 and iPhone 4S sure isn’t slowing down, and with Apple expected to take the wraps off the company’s latest smartphone lineup within weeks, more rumored iPhone 5 parts have started to leak out. According to the blog Greek iPhone, which published photos of what it is claiming to be new components from Apple’s upcoming iconic device, the iPhone 5 will be thinner than the current model and it will also feature volume buttons on the opposite side of where they sit now on the iPhone 4. Additionally, the camera module is “quite different” and thinner than the existing part, and it reportedly supports a higher resolution than the current module — it looks like an 8-megapixel sensor is all but confirmed. Hit the jump for additional images of the parts in question.
