The first set comes from luxury iPhone product manufacturer Feld & Volk, which claim to have images of the finished 4.7-inch iPhone 6 (the smaller one).
They offer good close-ups of the new handset, in particularly its logo which the company claims is made of a "very extraordinary" scratch-resistant metal, meaning no matter how much you (or rivals) assault the Apple, it can't be hurt.

The leaks, which should be taken with a huge vat of salt, also show the volume button cut-outs, which appear to have been recessed slightly to make the phone slimmer and less likely to cause accidental volume adjustments:

Apple is widely expected to unveil the iPhone 6 at a launch on September 9.
