In a video featured on the fan sight, a reporter is shown placing the iPhone C case into a bag of coins, keys, screws, nails, safety clips and various other sharp metal items. He then proceeds to shake the contents of the bag and remove the iPhone case after a minute, showing the smooth, unscathed case. He also attempts to use a key to scratch on the back of the phone to little effect.
Additional rumors have claimed that the low cost smartphone will be available in multiple colors including red, blue, yellow and green, with possible variatiosn on how light or dark the color is. The chosen colors were spotted in a leaked picture showing a range of plastic colors.
There is increased speculation that Apple will stray from providing the iPhone 5S in just black or white, with a gold option possibly in the works.
Apple is expected to unveil their next iteration of the iPhone at an event on September 10.
