7 will be an evolution of the curved form factor. I know this is just a ripoff from the current ipad line. I don't know really why they didn't just copy it since it was an excellent design language. I bet this will be spot on tho.for those who love the 5 series, chamfered edge will make a comeback along with the curved edge. looks sleek imo.

That's basically the iPod touch 1g design

I don't think that Apple would want only the border to be the colour differentiation between silver and gold.
 
I doubt we will ever see the chamfered edge again. Looked nice out of the box (sometimes) but was an absolute scratch magnet. Owned both a 5 and a 5S as well as the iPad mini and now the iPad Air. The only place any of them picked up scratches was on the chamfered edge.

Beautiful aesthetic choice, not particularly practical in day to day use.

Agreed, I also doubt it will come back.
 
Really? Has next week's iPad keynote already come and gone and I missed out? LOL. How do you know what the new iPads are going to look like?

They aren't going to redesign it after one year. Mark my words. Next iPad will look just like the current one but with Touch ID and maybe a gold colour option.
 
I want a case that looks like the original photo. Someone please make this.
 
A cross between the 4/4S and 6. Sapphire glass back and liquidmetal border.

This design looks great I like it a lot and also if this is true the liquid metal border will make the iphone 6 and 6+ almost impossible to bend because liquid metal is 100% stronger that titanium.

So basically it's just the iPod touch design? Especially the space grey one looks almost EXACTLY like an iPad with a protruding camera lens ... :eek:

Why can't this be the next iPhone?

With Samsung changing their designs to basically copy the iPhone 5 chamfered edge, I seriously doubt Apple is going to move back to using it in their design.
 
for the love of god STOP MAKING THINGS THINNER. MAKE IT THICKER IF ANYTHING AND GIVE US A BETTER BATTERY.

i feel better now :cool:
