Maybe on the next iPhone they will reveal the innovation of the flush camera lens. I'm not looking forward to the thing rocking around when I try to use it lying on my desk.
 
I'm sorry the icon layout isn't even good it looks horrible just have iPad size icons on iPhone that would look much better IMO.
 
I don't know if its a good fake or real. I'm leading towards real but a couple things make me question that. Regardless these leaks are getting me pumped up for Tuesday.

Now I need to figure out if I should go the contract route or ATT Next. Decisions decisions.
 
I bet you think those antenna breaks are really slick style features too?

Antenna break is beginning to be a slick style. A good design characteristic of iPhone 6 and I'm not even kidding. It improves so much from previous leaks. I'd bet in a year time there'll be many phones with similar band and people like you will come here and say oh it's from HTC, not iPhone.
 
Apple used to pull mockups and stuff before, but after the iPhone 4 they haven't really done it because it generates more press than doing nothing because it confirms whatever is leaked is actually from Apple. If Apple pulled all these photos and videos all the people claiming "fake" in here wouldn't have a leg to stand on.

Streisand Effect
The phenomenon whereby an attempt to hide, remove, or censor a piece of information has the unintended consequence of publicizing the information more widely, usually facilitated by the Internet.
 
I don't have OCD and none of my iPhone's have ever had a screen protector on them- and they have never been scratched once! Even looking under bright sunlight at an angle- zero scratches. Perhaps you are just a careless OCD? Sorry, I'm kidding. I just don't see the need for them myself. It's the choice of the user and how likely they are to scratch it.

Agreed. Screen protectors were once necessary but they haven't been since at least the iPhone 5. Mine has yet to scratch and I don't even use a case.
 
thats why he doesnt work at apple or anywhere as a designer. people think they are smart and know it all but they don't know ****. apple is this rich for a reason it wasn't by luck

Apple grew massively because they made huge steps forward (under Steve Jobs) and some amazing products, that doesn't mean they always will, they're falling behind in the market they helped pioneer. The iPhone helped Apple get where they are now, the iPhone 4 was a great design but since then they've been slipping - everything is about being thin and design language has stagnated. The competition have caught up.

They'll sell loads of iPhone 6's, break all the records, but that's because they've built up a massive customer base who'll just get the next upgrade unless it's seriously flawed (myself included). I'm not going to worship poor aesthetics in their new products just because though.
 
Then it needs to be thicker. If this is real, that camera ring is enough to keep me from buying the phone.

It would help a lot if this came with significant camera improvements, including the addition of optical image stabilization. That would make me more forgiving of the protruding lens.
 
Hey all you IP6 leakers....please do a video of the black IP6. I am really interested to see that one. All the videos so far have been the white IP6! :)
 
I think Apple customers are a wee bit more demanding about design than Android customers.

Incidentally, here's a leaked photo of Samsung's original prototype for that Galaxy phone:

They kept that back design for the S5, didn't they... :D
 
yepp, me too. I want a premium styled product. It must be timeless and flat in every direction.

Guess the "bubble level" apps won't work accurately on iPhone 6 ;-)

Well, at least there's a precedent for premium products having prominent protuberances...

I'm sure the touching of screen edges could be fixed with software, just as with multi-touch gesturing etc.

So you're all saying the iPhone 6 looks better with thick bezels and huge length due to the top and bottom borders? I see. I bet you think those antenna breaks are really slick style features too? Protruding camera? Amazing!

If Samsung released a carbon copy of the iPhone 6 last year most people on here would be saying how disgusting it looks. I forget it's a fanboy site first and foremost.

Part of the reason apple hasn't changed the blocks at the top and bottom is because it's the iPhone's iconic look.

Yes the iphone 6 looks better.That aquos phone looks awful.
 
About 15 reasons all of which have been mentioned in this thread.

A recap or no response at all would have been nice; don't have the time to read through 350+ posts, sorry.

Me, its because of the finish of the phone, look how it reflects light. Not the same as aluminium. The second reason is the touch ID button which looks not at all like the one on the 5s, Volks leak or the parts leak. It doesn't look like there is saphire on it. It looks like simple plastic.

Doesn't mean the real iphone doesn't look almost like that, probably does. But, the actual finish of this phone is the reason people buy iphone usually, not just the design, and there seems to be something off here.

Thanks for the feedback! Interesting.

No, it looks bad. That's part of the reason no-one else does it, or in the case of HTC does it better.

I dislike the break very much when the leaks initially began. It's actually grown on me substantially.
