Apple might have accidentally its two most important upcoming products. Images found by blog 9to5mac appear to show the brand new iPhone XS as well as the redesigned Apple Watch Series 4. The two products are expected to form the central part of Apple's event next month, for which invitations were sent out the same day the pictures leaked.

The naming system of the new phones has reportedly been a point of difficulty for Apple, and already some joked that the name appeared to be "excess", though Apple prefers that the X is pronounced as "ten". While the design of the phone appears to be very similar if not identical to the existing iPhone X, the leak shows the larger version of the handset as well as suggesting that it could come in a brand new gold colour. Apple only offers the current premium phone in black or white, both of which have silver edges. (9to5mac (9to5mac) The new gold colour appears to tie in with the invitation that Apple sent out to press attending the event on 12 September. And the leaked marketing shots are in line with Apple's look in recent years. Recommended Apple confirms launch date for new iPhone Apple is expected to unveil three new handsets at the September event. As well as the updated iPhone X and the larger version of the same phone, the company is expected to show off a cheaper version that will look similar and be sized somewhere between the two – that phone was not a part of any of the leaks. The site then went on to reveal what it said were pictures of the new Apple Watch Series 4. It shows a much larger display, which sweeps right across the front of the thinner body, and allows it to show far more information than the current models. (9to5mac (9to5mac) Both of the pictures appear to have some from some kind of marketing materials: it has been suggested that Apple might accidentally have broadcasted footage that was intended for the September event onto a public channel. Perhaps because the information is taken from product videos, there appears to be no details on the internal specifications or working of the new models. Last year, Apple also accidentally revealed just about everything about its upcoming products when it accidentally uploaded secret software onto its public servers. In that software was drawings of the new phones, as well as information about how features such as the removed home button would work. This time around, leaks have been much more scarce. Until now, it appeared that Apple's plan to lock down possible leaks had worked – but the latest leak and any more to come could threaten to cast a shadow over the September event. As well as the phone and watch, Apple might opt to unveil updates to its iPad and Mac lines, as well as launch new products like the long-awaited AirPower charging mat.<doc-sep>A website has leaked images of what it claims are Apple’s upcoming iPhones, two weeks before the company is scheduled to officially unveil the devices. Apple news site 9to5Mac published a photograph of the devices on Thursday and said that it expects them to be called “iPhone XS”. It claimed they are "not a mockup". The apparent leak comes after Apple shares hit a record high on Thursday of more than $228, ahead of the expected launch of its newest smartphones in California on September 12. The iPhone XS will reportedly come in a new, gold colour scheme in addition to the standard black and grey designs. 9to5Mac reported that the upcoming phone will be available in two sizes of OLED screen: 5.8-inch and 6.5-inch. The information published by 9to5Mac fits with rumours of what’s to come in Apple’s next iPhones. It’s expected that this is an “S” year for the devices, meaning Apple makes incremental improvements rather than a major design overhaul. Those devices are typically given an “S” designation in their name. However, analysts also expect Apple to release a new, lower cost 6.1-inch iPhone which will use a cheaper LCD screen rather than Apple’s OLED screens. That device was not seen in the image leaked by 9to5Mac.<doc-sep>
Earlier today, we learned when the new iPhones will debut. Now we also know exactly what they'll look like, too, thanks to a leaked image straight from Apple itself. (Image credit: 9to5Mac) Say hello to the iPhone XS, and a larger model we can only assume is the iPhone XS Plus. This render was obtained by 9to5Mac and represents the first official-looking shot we've seen of the devices yet. According to the report, "iPhone XS" is the name Apple as indeed chosen for its two range-topping 5.8-inch and 6.5-inch models this year, and both will be offered in gold. The picture provides a fascinating look at both devices, though it doesn't reveal much that rumors already haven't told us. These devices will reportedly boast designs almost exactly the same as the current iPhone X — save for the size upgrade with the Plus model, and the gold option, of course. The midsize 6.1-inch iPhone is the lone outlier in this photo. That phone will reportedly be powered by an LCD display, in lieu of the OLED panels in the more expensive variants. It is also expected to have bezels slightly thicker than those pricier models, as well as a single rear-facing camera and smaller battery — though Apple's flagship A12 processor and Face ID should be featured in every new iPhone.

With about two weeks to go until then, this surely isn't the final leak we expect to see regarding the upcoming handsets, so be sure to keep an eye on our rumor roundup for the latest.
