There\u2019s no way to know right now because, even if the prototypes are real, they may not represent the final production configuration. Things change, although it\u2019s probably close enough to final production that those pictures, again if they\u2019re genuine, ought to more closely represent the finished product.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, the critics who insist Apple ought to just follow what Google or Samsung does are missing the point. Google has not been successful at premium smartphones, not in the least. Samsung moves far fewer Galaxy smartphones than iPhones.
