In previous months, the press named the next-gen Apple iPhone as the iPhone 6. Plenty of images and videos were leaked and there were even live shots showing the device's camera, settings and health apps just a day before the release.
It was also believed Apple will have an NFC-based payment system in the iPhone 6.
Feld & Volk gave the public an early look of the device by assembling it with the use of components and parts suggested by the leaks.
A couple of reports suggested the iPhone will have a new design with a rounded shape and an aluminum housing. There are rumors about a 4.7-inch and a 5.5-inch display, new A8 processor, 1 GB of RAM, Touch ID and a bigger battery.
People expected the iPhone 6 to come in three colors such as silver/white, space gray/black and gold/white. A new 128 GB storage option was also mentioned, as well as a sapphire glass display cover rather than Gorilla Glass from Corning.
Apple introduced the iOS 8 at the WWDC this summer but it saved several things for the iPhone 6 event.
It unveiled how the Health app will integrate with the Apple iWatch. iOS 8 will be released in the coming week ahead of the iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6 Plus release on Sept. 19.
