Claimed Rear Shell with Sides for Next-Generation iPhone Surfaces [Updated x2]

[ajvizzgamer101]

To each their own I guess. I bet if you tried it for a day, it would start to feel natural. I like being able to withdraw my phone and use it immediately. The headphone port on the bottom would be perfect for me.

Either way, if you've ever plugged in the dock connector wire and a headphone wire at the same time, you'd know how annoying having wires on both sides of the phone is (which is my current car setup). It's worth changing just for that reason in my opinion.

What if the phone is docked but you still want to listen to music via headphone?

Use the port at the back of the dock?

Didnt the guy who posted the leaked shots of the iphone 4 also have those super long finger nails? hhmmnnn....

Just shut up and... noI'mgonnakeepmymoney.

I'm gonna be way more excited about iOS 6 than this.

The back looks horribly ugly, totally not Apple-like. Sir Ive, what did you smoke there?!

Highly appreciate the headphone jack moving to the bottom, though.
I always wondered why they and some other manufacturers put it on top in the past - it's just stupid seen from the user-friendliness perspective. Someone a couple of posts before me also explained why exactly.

those nails make me vomit

If the back were a solid colour, I wouldn't have a problem with it, but the metal going across the back looks weird to me.

Uhh...

I find it hard to believe apple would make a design which runs aluminum and plastic together on the back like that... It looks hideous. I really hope this isn't the design...

No, no -- because of the continual threat from Zune, there will now be a brown iPhone.

My post still stands in that it doesn't make sense for Apple to release an iPhone in June/July.

What you said, iOS 6 released to developers abut 90 days prior to general availability with iPhone makes more sense.

The only reason Apple would be forced to release a new iPhone on June/July is to Support 4G LTE, otherwise it will be left behind their competitors

We both know that Apple acts alone and doesn't usually react to forcing measures.

 

[maverick786us]

looks like an elaborate decoy for Apple to unveils something totally out of whack

Depending on the Pic with the hand holding the new iPhone, I guess it's a fake iPhone.

Check the letters saying "iPhone". There was no difference in between the previous generations and this one doesn't look like original apple-used font.

Does the band in the middle have a frictional surface to give a better grip?

Or is it perfectly smooth?

 

[KanosWRX]

Yeah, Apple would never release an iPhone with a two-tone back. Never.

It was their first attempt, a learning process. They have come a long way since when the first iphone came out. Its much sleeker and clean lines I can't see them going back to that.
