A new patent has been uncovered that shows an iPhone stand - presumably for the iPhone 5S.
Although not the most exciting patent we've dug up from Patently Apple, it does show a rough outline of the next iPhone and it looks identical to the iPhone 5.
There's no sign of any extra features such as the iPhone 5S rumoured fingerprint sensor previously mentioned and discovered in the iOS 7 beta 4 code base.
The patent was discovered at the Hong Kong patents office, alongside 14 other patents referring to the iPod nano, iPod touch loop and Apple earphones.
Patently Apple says the iPhone stand will include 'a much higher slanted pedestal style design than can be found in Apple Stores today.'
There's no word on when this patent will see the light of day as an actual piece of hardware, but we assume it will be alongside the launch of the iPhone 5S in the next month or two.
