Well, we know the next iPhone will has a chassis at least. /s
Haven’t used a case with my iPhones since the 5s.

Indeed, I couldn't remember the exact function, but weren't there conflicting rumours as to whether this would actually materialise in this version?
I can only assume it will double down as a charger in some grim portless future.

Because as a Foxconn employee working in the production area, you don’t want to get caught. You’re sneaking the chassis into the washroom or the parking lot for a quick video before anyone knows it’s missing. Sorry the video isn’t 4K filmed using a RED camera with production lighting.

This is the same comment you posted in a different article today. Don't spam please.
But will it work with a COVID mask and have Touch-ID under the screen? This is the most important thing to me.
So far Apple is not listening to science.

Like the iPhone 5/5S/SE case really. almost like a modernization of that.
And those too felt cheap and 'tinny' when dinged with your fingernail.
The shiny edges make it look generic/cheap/plastic. Come on, Apple....
Is this the first iPhone Apple would have designed since Ive left?

The 4 was not stainless steel, it was aluminum, just like the original iPhone. I’m surprised they went with plastic after the original iPhone. I remember my friends iPhones 3G/3GS were all scratched and cracking while my original iPhone was intact.
iPhone 4 features a 5 megapixel camera with LED flash, HD video recording, Apple’s A4 processor, a 3-axis gyro and up to 40 percent longer talk time—in a beautiful all-new design of glass and stainless steel that is the thinnest smartphone in the world.

I would like to gently remind you that the iPhone 12 Pro’s frame will be made of stainless steel which is a lot harder than the aluminium frame of the iPhone 5 and 5s. I doubt there will be any warping issues just because of one drop on the corner. But unfortunately the same can’t be said for the iPhone 12 non-Pro models.
Depends what grade of aluminium is used.If it’s aircraft grade like the 6S/6S Plus were,it should be a bit more durable.
In what way is Apple not listening? That Touch ID doesn’t work with gloves and face id doesn’t work with masks?....So far Apple is not listening to science.
That camera layout is really bothering me.
The iPhone X/XS layout looks astronomically better.

You’re probably thinking about the 5 and 5s because those phones were aluminum which is very mailable. every little thing would nick it and its chamfered edges. But I don’t remember having this issue with the 4 that had a stainless steel frame, which is a much harder metal
If this is truly the design I will definitely be going with a dark color so that the lenses can blend in better, and I’ve been going with white since the 6 came out. The 5 black holes on the white background look terrible, the camera array can definitely use a black glass cover a la iPhone X
As someone who loves the white color, I do wish that the silver would actually have a white back versus the pearly color it is today. They do this for the lower end models without the frosted glass. Wish they’d do this for the Pro models.
If this is real I’ll eat my hat. 🧢
Come on people, Apple wouldn’t release anything that looks so horrid. This is nothing more than a dummy model designed to look like ***** on purpose.
