New iPhone 5 video surfaces, gets turned on.

This is certainty fake (in my expert opinion). At least the turn on bit of it. Otherwise seems a dummy shell/mockup.

I almost downvoted this until I read who you were. I upvoted it instead :) What signs make you think it is fake?

There generally isn't one thing, but more a gestalt. But relatively easy to fake, the nonchalant - oh it works too - just tagged on at end, coming from just a guy on youtube. It also shows nothing specific. (others noted that iOS doesn't even require the connect to iTunes anymore) We see a lot of these fakes before every Apple event.

The turn-on part is a simulated screen image. It's CG

Definitely, as other comments have indicated the perspective seems slightly off and the whole display as a slightly unreal quality to it. And since iOS 5 there hasn't been a requirement to connect to iTunes.
