Hmmm... Just a bit of flipping. Still look fake or possible?
(sorry forgot how to post in the window...)
Wonder why it looks like it was placed on a separate piece of paper than the photo taken. See the folded edge? Or...protective film?

A case doesn't have to run along that top edge. It could very well run along the top of the left and right edges...

understand perspective much?
Is my ipad fake because I didn't take the pic at an exact perpendicular angle?
Do you even know what a vanishing point is? LOL
How can this be right? A 960x640 resolution screen on a 10 inch screen would still be 960x640 resolution.
The DPI would be a lot lower, because the pixels would need to be bigger, to fill the greater screen size.
Surely resolution and DPI are different things?

My thoughts exactly, lol.
On the spy shot, the top part of the screen has the bezel increasing in size, as it goes away from you, even with perspective taken into account!
Bad fake is bad.
If Apple could pull off another engineering magic feat, I hope they could increase the screen size to 3.7 while maintaining the same form factor. I have a Samsung Galaxy S. It's a great phone and I love the screen size but it SOMETIMES is too big for one handed use, and I do have big hands. Plus, don't make it too thin. The SGS thinness is borderline awkward to use for me. Iphone 4 is perfect except the screen is too small. Surprising to me how 0.2 of an inch makes a difference.
it's a fake. if you look towards the top of the screen where the earpiece and front camera hole is, you'd see three white dots and a circular air bubble. now why is there another set of three white dots and air bubble practically next to the first set? clone, copy, paste. not to mention via photoshop cs2.
The error analysis indicates that the image has not been edited in any way.

It may have been cropped in Photoshop, sure, but edited/manipulated? No.
The angles outlined earlier that seem off are due to the camera lense.
If this is fake, it was manufactured specifically to be 'fake'.
Thanks
the line issue is one of perspective, the photo can look like that and not be fake if the subject was in the lower left corner of the photo and then it was cropped to the result that we see here.
Don't drop the home button!
You need hardware when the soft crashes. No home button no get out of jail card no easy screen grab. It also provides tactile and visual orientation cues.

The front bezel of what is claimed to be an "iPhone 5" part has reportedly been posted to by iDealsChina. The image was first discovered by 9to5Mac. iDealsChina writes:The screen could match up with claims that the iPhone 5 will have a larger 4 inch screen as well as a "edge to edge" screen which we mean to interpret as a smaller bezel (border). It's hard to tell for sure without a comparison with the current iPhone 4 next to it.
iDealsChina was one of the sources of the early (2008) iPhone Nano rumors based on some early cases from accessory makers. They had previously posted moldings for the then-unreleased iPhone 3G cases which turned out to be accurate. The iPhone 5 is rumored to be launching this summer.

If that is true, I am buying one. 3.5" is just too small for me these days.
You are correct. The resolution is horizontal*vertical pixels.
Where many have gone wrong (ahem, arn) is saying that resolution is along one dimension. It is not. It is measured in two dimensions (vertical x horizontal).
Pixel density is how many pixels per square inch, and can be anything. A 65 inch plasma has a resolution of 1920x1080. So does a 46 inch plamsa or LCD. So does a 21.5 inch cinema display. Etc. All the same resolution. Yet all have different pixel densities.
If the iPhone increases its screen size and keeps its 960x640 resolution, then the pixels will have to be a bit larger, and so the pixel density will be a bit lower.
Yet, oddly, when people were talking about the iPad getting a retina display of 2048x1536, it was referred to as a resolution "doubling". That is wrong. It's a quadrupling of the resolution. 4 times as much information is being displayed. 4 times as many pixels.
A *doubling* of the current iPad resolution would be roughly 1448x1086.
One more example: iPhone 4 has 4 times the resolution of iPhone 3, ie 960x640 is 4 times 480x320. 4 times the number of pixels. 4 times the resolution. Screen size is irrelevant.
One more time for the road: resolution is measured in 2 dimensions, not one. It is not dots per inch. It's vertical dots multiplied by horizontal dots.
