I don't know what you mean by 'blocked'.
That's actually the first half descent mockup I've seen.
If it's really much larger, I could envision them moving the standby button to the side, just like that, sitting above volume.
It also still has insulation gaps in outer metal band providing separation for chassis and antenna parts. Still has the dual flash. A return to a full glass back opens up more antenna possibilities for more antenna... MIMO WIFI, cellular?

Good but I would like the back to be more aluminum. I really like how now they have the glass on the top and bottom and the aluminum.
It looks sort of bland, say compared, to the 4 and 5. I hope that's not what it's going to look like.
Ugh, I hate the rounded edges! It's harder to grip, and also makes phone cases uglier, since it's harder to design a case around those edges that looks good.
They really should continue with the current design with flat sides.

Awful looking render. Those matte black edges look absolutely horrible, as if the phone was wearing a permanent bumper-case. Secondly, I doubt Apple will go back to a glass back.
I for one hope that the recent "Foxconn leak" is legit. Full aluminum back!

I hate sharp corners! A slightly curved back and sides won't stick out so bad in my jeans pocket.
Everyone has different likes. I still prefer my model 3 shape (used w/o a covering case but stored in a pouch). Reluctantly got a 4s for LTE speed. Since I pay per MB for data & VOIP the faster connection is a big plus.
