Want a first glance at the iPhone 6, Apple’s latest luxury smartphone due to be launched this autumn? Just take a look at Taiwanese pop star Jimmy Lin’s microblog.

Lin on Wednesday posted what are suspected to be “leaked images” of the iPhone 6 on his Chinese microblog platform.

Using three photos, he compared what he said is a silver-coloured iPhone 6 side by side with the currently available iPhone 5 and iPhone 5S.

The purported image of the iPhone 6 is seen to have a more rounded profile and a larger display in both length and width than earlier versions of the Apple smartphone. The images appear to confirm earlier speculation about the new design.

“[It has] a 4.7-inch screen. Its power button is moved slightly to the right, and an antenna is no longer concealed inside,” Lin said in his post. He did not respond to enquires on Thursday.
