New Supposed iPhone 5se Schematics Surface

SlashGear reports that new schematics have just leaked from a case manufacturer that purport to show designs for cases for the forthcoming iPhone 5se. The schematics, originally posted by 9to5 Mac, definitely show a phone that looks very similar to the iPhone 5s, which would tie in with previous rumours about the iPhone 5se being very similar to the 2013 phone, with identical dimensions. In fact, the source says that the phones are so similar that they would fit in and old iPhone 5s case. However, looks can be deceptive, of course, and it’s thought that the innards of the new phone are a big improvement on the iPhone 5s, with completely upgraded internal hardware and software.

Among the changes that are rumoured is the sleep/wake/power button being moved to the side of the phone rather than the top (which would make it very difficult to use your old iPhone 5s case, even if it could fit inside!).
