Anyone mentioned that this is actually the Goophone i6?

http://www.goophone.net/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=60

The guy opened almost all apps but never opened the AppStore. We all know what AppStore is hiding underneath.

He did open the AppStore. Try browsing through the pictures. Almost all apps are pictured. Well, this phone looks too perfect to be a clone. Everything seems in place.
 
Well maybe it's just me but I prefer some bezel on handheld devices as they are supposed to be just that, held with the hand. No bezel means covering up bits of the screen when you're holding it, either that or you have to rather uncomfortably cling to the edges.

Bezel-less is great for TV's, mind - and for things you don't have to hold.

Edge to edge displays are great for TVs but not for touch devices.
 
The reason I think these leaks are real is because of the animations and transitions. They are PERFECT and I've never seen a fake get those right. Plus the phone just looks so polished. Voting for real. We know Apple has already shipped out millions of these. 1-2 are bound to get out somehow. Right?
Tuesday is going to be a great day.

In reference to an earlier comment.....my body is so not ready so so not ready. There now when Apple reveals maybe the bezels will have shrunken some.

HAHA! Let's all say it together... "OUR BODIES ARE NOT READY!!" haha.
 
Fake or not, it really doesn't matter to me, it's pretty much a given at this point what the phone is going to look like.
 
[/COLOR]Yeah. But it's disappointing that the leaked model seems bland. Can't really feel the game changing hardware+software when the iPhone 4 was unveiled. 2007 and 2010 was apples peak. I hope 2014 will be special but so far, leaks are pointing to another incremental update.
 
Depends on your usage I suppose, but I've never had a screen protector and I've never had scratches on my screen. I also make a point not to do things like placing my phone on tables upside down.

Screen covers change the appearance of the display, resulting in glare, distortions and less saturated colors, and they mess with the responsiveness of the touch screen.

I do use Apple's fitted leather case for my phone, which not only protects the scratch prone aluminum housing but also makes it more comfortable to hold and less prone to split out of my hand.

The screen protector also stops the olephobic coating from wearing. I guarantee if you held up a new phone side by side with yours you’d notice miniscule wear patterns and scratches.
Yes, I did say miniscule and somnetimes it makes a difference. Some people buy things that are well designed but want them to remain looking absolutely perfect. I am one of those. Call it OCD or whatever you want but as soon as you get but the tiniest of scratches it’s almost as if your eye is drawn to it everytime you use the phone and it appears to some that someone has carved a gorge in the front of it.
 
I think that most of us can agree that the iPhone 6 glass will have a curved edge. This in fact makes the bezel appear thicker or wider than it actually is, so judging from the leaked photos and videos (if they are authentic) we will be quite surprised to see how thin the bezel is when we handle the real thing.

But they won't look absolutely perfect once you've put them in a case and with a screen protector on?

My friends mother keeps the plastic on her sofa's, they're in great condition but really noisy and uncomfortable to sit on when it's hot/cold. But when she gets her next sofa these ones will still be in perfect condition to move on I guess... :confused:
 
Look carefully at this video before deciding. There are several descepancies Why is his hand covering the model number when he goes into settings etc
I'll just wait till Tuesday
 
Also, I don't think it's too thick. But to know for sure I need to know the material and color they use. From the latest leak color seems to be OK. Apple always use premium material so if that's the case I think the band will be alright.
And nothing's clumsy about it. Are you for real? Ha. Ha.
Of course like I said, I'm beginning to have a sympathy for your employer already so I'm not surprised at all if you find it hideous. :)

I gotta go with Jim. I’m not a designer but I remember studying technical drawing at school and especially remember enjoying Tangency.
It detailed how good designs had a profound effect of the size of Radii and positioning of curves. The iPhone 6 lens, (it APPEARS to my eyes from the curernt evidence), is badly positioned/sized.
 
It's reported it's a 1704 x 960 resolution screen. That's not 1080p either. Not that it matters but the original comment was disparaging the other phone for not being "full" hd.

Disparaging comment it wasn't. Disappointing yes and also first and foremost I said having a plastic back which is meh.
 
Let's put it this way. I can't see any scratches on my phone but I can see and feel a screen protector on friends' phones.

Yep, but the point is they maintain a pristine phone.

Yep. It’s weird I know. I liken it to being able to read that 1st edition comic and never actually getting any creases in it.
I’ve probably seen my phone twice but strangely how it looks is very important.

not on the 4.7 inch model, it still has 326 ppi
 
the arms of clock are too long

the long arm of the clock app goes through the figures. Thats not happening in the last beta of iOS 8. It's definitely fake!

I'm talking about the band, not camera len.

Nope. On the Yosemite beta the clock looks exactly the same (in notification center). Also the new iTunes logo in Yosemite has the gradient changed - exactly like it's on this phone.

Aye, everyone has their "thing", I used to be really bad with OCD but I've gradually forced myself out of it in most ways - oddly I'm the opposite with the phone, I never put a case on it because I like the design. Not broken one yet but I have dinged the odd corner here and there! I dropped my iPad (in a leather case) on holiday last month and the aluminium corner is dented up into the glass, pushing it away from the casework, now I can never remove that leather case because I'll see the damage - as long as the case is on I can pretend it doesn't exist! :D

i'm not talking about yosemite .. an iphone doesn't run on yosemite but on iOS 8 and even on yosemite the long arm is not that long .. in the fake picture the long arm reaches all the way to the black area .. that can't be right!
