With the October 22 event approaching fast, a new iPad 5 leak comes from China with love. This time around, we’re being offered a glimpse at the Touch ID sensor.

This image you see above comes from CtechCN and is part of a stream of leaks spanning several days. This last one is far more tantalizing (and, perhaps, really accurate).

The photo purports to show an iPad 5 equipped with a Touch ID sensor. This partial image of the tablet makes it hard to distinguish any design elements that can confirm this as an iPad 5.

It may also be an iPad mini 2. However, given the proportions (the distance between the Home button and the edge of the tablet), it’s probably the full-size tablet model. What do you guys think? Leave your impressions in the comments below.
