The packaging for Apple's iPhone 6S has reportedly leaked, and it reveals a new detail about the phone

A new photo that reportedly shows the retail packaging for Apple's next iPhone has appeared online.
It provides more evidence that the so-called iPhone 6S will look nearly identical to the iPhone 6. And it reveals that the next iPhone might have a smaller battery than the current iPhone.
Cnbeta, the website that posted the image, claims that the larger version of the next iPhone will have a 2750 mAh battery capacity compared to the current iPhone 6 Plus' 2910 mAh battery.
That's not necessarily a bad thing, however. It could mean that Apple has made the next iPhone and its iOS software more power efficient, so it doesn't need a battery that's as large as the one in the current iPhone. The image also backs up the rumor that Apple will release its next iPhone in two sizes, just like it has with the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus.
It's important to keep in mind that there's no real evidence that this leak is legitimate, however. Cnbeta doesn't have the solid track record we've seen from other sources, such as 9to5Mac's Mark Gurman, independent blogger Sonny Dickson, KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, and others. It's very possible that the packaging is faked, but we'll know for sure when Apple unveils its new iPhone.
The company is expected to hold an event on September 9 to introduce its next iPhone(s) and a new Apple TV, although Apple has yet to send out invitations.
