Leaked iPhone 5S Box Shows Modified Home Button, Corroborates Fingerprint Scanner Rumors?

Newly leaked photos alleging to be of the retail box for the iPhone 5S show a modified Home button that corroborates rumors describing a ring around the button due to an embedded fingerprint scanner.


"Contrary to recent talk, the new Home button’s design will not be noticeably convex. Perhaps the shape has changed, but the tweaked button is nothing distinct enough for the iPhone 5S to be identified as anything but an iPhone 5 by the untrained eye. There’s the possibility, however, that the etching and border of the Home button could become more shiny and look slightly different."

Fox News' Clayton Morris has also 'confirmed' that the Home button is "it's an inny (concave) and it's gonna have a silver ring around it".
