Hands On with a Physical Mockup of the iPhone 5

Can you re-read everything you just said? You sound foolish. I personally think the design looks awesome, and the more I look at pictures of it, the more I like it. You do have to remember that this mock-up was made by an unknown source... And Apple's FINISHED product will look a lot more polished.
And I hope the bigger speaker grill means better sounding music... Because the volume loudness and quality on the iPhone 4/4s is terrible. I'm excited for this.
September 12th seems like it's years away!
I know so much about it, I'm already sick of looking at it. Wonder what the next one will look like.
you know its already been in the works for months!
I was wrong about the camera and the 2 tone back being too near where it'll show even with a case, it should just be outside of the case cutout shown in the link.

Still too close to the camera imo, and how many colors ARE there? I still want that design to be fake.

Sorry, but you're wrong. And yes, people do care about GPU power, which enables them to run more sophisticated graphical apps smoother. Are you stupid?

I'll be giving mine to my parents actually; I can't stand seeing them use a $35 POS Samsung dumb-phone any longer.
Sure

Btw I didnt mention this as barely anyone uses the full power of these GPU, unlike for example browing
Superior image is debatable, I actuall like amoled displays a lot better then the 4s but the 4s has a screen that is just as good, doesnt change the fact its a lot smaller with lesser resolution .
I would suggest to get your own facts straight , again the 4s is a very very good smartphone, dont know why some take any criticism as a personal attack on them, but that still doesnt change the fact that there are plenty of smartphones out there better or equal. So any innovation apple is bringing its already out there .
Saying then its "incredible and great " it is how apple keeps updating its smartphone slower then other are doing isnt really a smart thing to say.
You mistake your own preferences for those of every consumer out there.
Apple has failed(either by choice or lack of trying) to deliver on several area's. Screen size for example (if the 4s had been 4"+ I would have bought one) others dont like the non expendability with sd cards, or 4g or its form factor or ...
Its still the view of the average consumer wether you like it or not. They just care about what they see not whats in it.

Calm down , no need to get worked up about something like this.
And how many apps out there need to full graphical power of a dual or quad core GPU ? Indeed not many
As hard as this is to believe, there are some people who do not define themselves by the phone they use and a '$35 POS Samsung' is all they need or want.
That reminds me of last week where a local store had Nokia dumb-phones (even with color screen and camera) on sale for $13 unlocked
Amazing they can make them so cheap.
I guess this will truly be the "hipster" phone if it is two-tone and nobody really likes it because if there is one circle that likes "unpopular-popular" things it's the hipsters *pushes up oversized glasses*
Bad reason. Android app store is just as powerful.
And bad iOS design if it is limited only to one screen size. For another screen size (iPad) they had to design the whole new OS. Android 4.0 works with any screen size including tablet or Android camera.

Well, even when polished the camera placement will be the same and the bottom part of the phone will still look messy - just a "nicer" mess. The iPhone 4 was the best design ever - and it's clear even Apple couldn't top it.
I do agree that the iPhone 4/4S design was beautiful and it was the best looking design in my opinion. It will be hard to top it, but at the same time, I'd like a more sturdy phone. The iPhone 4 is just too fragile. I guess that's what comes along with beauty.
I just hope the new iPhone will feel less slippery than the current iPhone 4's design.
I find it amusing that you interpreted my comment that way, as though I'm defining my parents on the phone they use. Nice length of bow there.
My parents, fyi, have expressed displeasure about using said Samsung, and want an iPhone. So, drop the sanctimony.
Ah, yes, introduce more facts, then play the victim.
You inferred that I was criticising and defining everyone who has a non-smartphone by the phone they have; that's insane, and I called you out on it. Get over it, and stop playing the persecuted.
