Yay and another iPhone "5" case that contradicts the above one:

:rolleyes:

I'm praying that the one I linked is true. Would be a great upgrade from the 4!
 
Just got another report from an ATT employee that the next iPhone will have a new back like the iPad 2. Jives with above report. And the OPs mentioned report seems the most legitimate we've seen thus far.

I'd bet money on the 5 having a curved back.

Because we all know that Apple reveals unreleased products to ATT employees :rolleyes:

He was most likely speaking about the rumors as if they are true.

Thanks for the -1.

At this point it's like a circumstantial case and all the arrows seem to point to a new back.
 
I'm welcome for a design change if Apple should do that this year. If not, then I'm fine with that too! :cool:
 
I'd bet we do get a curved glass back if Apple can pull it off. Let's not forget all the glass cutting machines Apple purchased.

You'd think they'd want to stay away from glass though, with the bad rap it got.

A curved non glass back would solve all of the controversial aspects of the 4 though: get rid of the glass, fix the antenna and make the iPhone comfortable to hold again.
