Mockup Mania!

I don't know why so many of you are bitching about mockup news. There is dick-all going on with Apple right now, so until WWDC, all we have is speculation to keep sites like MacRumors going, unless you want this place to be like iMore and post articles about how to change your wallpaper in iOS.

These mockups are a great way for potential upgraders or purchasers to get an idea of what the next iPhone may (and, let's face it, probably will) look like.
 
Honestly...not really revolutionary or different. I guess the upside is now the ipad, iphone and ipod touch all "match" assuming apple actually goes with this.

I don't know what people are expecting for an "innovative" or "different" form factor. There's not much leeway for touchscreen slate phones, unless we take a cue from Dwight.

The amount of effort that went into making these physical mockups is astounding. Seriously? Nothing better to do with their time I guess.
 
Has anyone even considered that it may just be a new IPOD rather than an new IPHONE.
 
And next time, compare an phone who has a 4,7'' ( like Moto X for example ) vs iPhone 6 dimensions... and not other clueless S4/S5
 
I know a lot of people like bigger phones, but there are also people who want something small for something they have to carry around all the time. If this is the only model (they don't continue to offer one the current size) then that will be my cue to go to a dumbphone and my iPad when I upgrade my iPhone 5. Well, at least I'll save a little money.
 
So, someone speculates on the next iPhone design based on a fairly obvious assumption that it could follow the styling cues of the iPod Touch. And oddly enough the mock-ups based on that speculation look astonishingly like.... an iPod Touch!

You heard it here first guys.
 
Please, enough with the mockup articles. I have rarely visited the site because of this. :(
 
The iPhone 6 at 7.0 mm thick based on the design drawings is clearly thicker than the iPod touch at 6.1 mm, although the iPhone 6 would still be noticeably thinner than the iPhone 5s at 7.6 mm.

0.6 mm is noticeably thinner???
