The new phone, expected to be called the iPhone 5S, appears to have a thin silver ring around the home button.
The image seems to confirm rumours that the new model will have a fingerprint sensor embedded in the home button and the ring may form part of that.
The handset could be able to identify the owner by his or her fingerprints – making the phones far more secure than at present.
The recognition will be triggered when the user touches the home button. A fingerprint will appear on screen and change colour when it matches.
The pictures, rejected as bogus by some, were leaked by Chinese website C Technology before the phone’s official launch tomorrow.
Other rumours say the new phone will include a slow-motion camera able to record 120 frames-per-second video.
There are also suggestions Apple will launch a low-cost version called the iphone C.
