I agree it's not too much different than my iPhone 4 or my Galaxy S2, I will be so happy when smartphones resemble.... oh never mind.
Samsung is giving me a headache.
This is what they said about the iPhone 4 when it was coming out: "Oh my god, it's uglier than the iPhone 3GS, Apple would never sell this piece of crap."
And what do you know - it's the best selling phone in history.
Deja vu anyone?
Because they get lots of clicks for it on their website.
How could this possibly not look like an Apple product. It's basically a mixture between iPad and iPod Touch...
Do you really think the masses will default to the Galaxy just because of the way an Apple product looks?
Apples products are dead sexy and it's the user interface that draws people in...

That is really nice. It's tough to make a classy, sleek looking phone with a big screen stuffed in there. I see it as a middleground with the common sense to change the weakest parts of the phone, the antenna and the glass backing. People still probably have a **** ton of repairs still going on with the 4. One would think they'd like to avoid that issue entirely with a redesign. And I doubt they want to give the media more antenna fodder. That **** was blown way out of proportion anyways. Give the media an inch and they take it a mile, Apple does not want that. I don't see how they could stay with the same design without the media at least questioning these things and maybe customers too.
Man i can't wait til the 4th. I really like that design and i would rather see the iPhone made out of aluminum because its much more durable then the glass iphone 4
It is wider. Look closer... because of the thickness of the iPhone 3G and 4... they look thicker than they are.
Looks ugly to me. It's a step backwards in aesthetics in my opinion. Hope it doesn't look like that.
Samsung is gonna sue over a mock-up of phone made from measurements taken from an unconfirmed document making its way around the interwebz?
Couldn't agree more.
If they want to change it, I'm ok with that. But create a product that looks better than it. This is mediocre by Apple's standards.
yes, i do. Most would remain loyal to apple and buy their quality products, however, there are a lot of people out there who are expecting something big (as far as a redesign goes) and depending on their character they will either accept a slight disappointment and buy the new iPhone 4s or they will take their business elsewhere. im not saying apple would go bankrupt, just that it would lose a lot of customers.
