A separate pair of part leaks out of China are showing off the back shell of the iPad Mini along with the apparent confirmation that the iPhone 5 will not have a near-field communication (NFC) chip as previously rumored.
Photos posted to Chinese website digi.163.com appear to reveal the rear casing for a seven-inch iPad, which we expect Apple to reveal in October.
The bottom of the shell resembles recent leaks for the iPhone 5, including a smaller dock connector, but also reveal a potential rear-facing camera.
Curiously, the headphone jack appears to remain on top of this smaller iPad, despite iPhone 5 leaks showing the same jack relocated to the bottom of the handset.
NFC no-show?
Recent photos showed an unidentified metal square which was initially presumed to be a near-field communication (NFC) chip, which could possibly enable wireless payments through apps such as Passbook, which will be included with the new iOS 6.
On Wednesday, those hopes were dashed with by a new report offering a closer look at the internal components of the sixth-generation iPhone.
The square is now believed to be a bracket used to hold the front-facing FaceTime camera in place, along with the proximity sensor and earpiece speaker.
The same report claims Apple may have chosen to leave NFC out of the new iPhone over security concerns, although this hasn't stopped Android competitors from adding the feature to a number of high-profile devices.
