The Samsung Galaxy S5 has been leaked so often and regularly at this point that we've already developed a pretty good idea of what it's going to look like on the outside.
Now new photos have surfaced purportedly showing what the next Galaxy is rocking on the inside.
The latest leaks comes by way of Nowhereelse.fr. The French tech site alleges the Galaxy S5 will come with a metal interior frame for some much needed rigidity after a line of Samsung phones classically known for their chintzy, all-plastic bodies.
Rockin' body
Based on the frame's measurements - 143.8mm (5.6 inches) tall and 72.2mm (2.8 inches) wide - the new Galaxy S5 could very well feature a larger screen than the Galaxy S4's 5-inch display.
Compared to the Galaxy S4's dimensions, 136.6 x 69.8mm (5.38 x 2.75 inches), the new metal frame is slightly longer. This could mean the Galaxy S5 will have a widescreen aspect ratio display.
The images of this completely straight metal frame don't match up with our renderings of a bending Galaxy S5, but it gels with our theory about it having metal accents.
What we know so far
The new shots are also just the latest in a long string of Galaxy S5 leaks and rumors.
We've heard unsubstantiated reports that the S5 will have an eye scanner as well as a 16-megapixel camera to watch you. Inside, the smartphone could also come packing one of the very first 64-bit chips for an Android system.
On top of that, the Galaxy S5 supposedly will come with a 560ppi display as well. Again, we're going take all of these specs with a grain of salt until we get more definite proof, but the rumors are certainly swirling for Samsung's next handset.
We may even see it as soon as CES 2014, so the days until the Galaxy S5's release may be waning.
