Yesterday, an alleged leak for partial rear casing for iPhone 7 with the antenna band along the edge was widely spread rumor across multiple tech blogs (e.g. Apple Insider, TechnoBuffalo), looking to possibly confirms some prior leaks of iPhone 7 designs and renders.

However today, Li Nan, Vice President of Meizu Technology, confirmed on his official micro-blogging Weibo account (see below) that the casing belongs to their upcoming Meizu Pro 6 to be announced in August. According to Li, the leak was a mistake by a factory worker and they have been polishing the design for a year already.

So what’s your take on this? Is Meizu taking advantage of making similar possible design with iPhone 7 and leaked it for marketing purpose? Let me know in the comments.
