I have never put my phone in my breast pocket. Curious to know how many people actually do.
Got a tip for us?

I have never put my phone in my breast pocket. Curious to know how many people actually do.
People like to make wild remarks that's all.
Just think of all those people who said they'll move out of the US if Bush got reelected or Obama is elected or reelected and give it a few more months if romney gets elected.
Hardly any of them moved out. Celebrities got the most press on this with Bush. They all still living in the US.
These who claim they'll be going to android will likely be going OMG its the greatest thing ever once Apple shows it off.
Please look how rough the metal has been milled, no consumer product is finished like this. Also it seems the white version has been anodized like the black one, just not in the color white. This is possible. So judging by how rough the finish is on the inside this isn't a definite design. It is very possible that the final version will be anodized and painted in the color white.
Go get a Samsung SIII or Note then
. Unless you're prepared to have surgery on your hands to wrap round a wider phone.Now that would be a feature I'd upgrade for in a second. It may also be for NFC:
Mastercard/Paypass to be NFC partner with Apple on iPhone 5?
Don't forget, Ed McLaughlin, who heads emerging payments at MasterCard, had an exchange with Fast Company that went as follows:
Japan and other nations have been using NFC tech in mobile devices for quite a while, using them for store and vending machine purchases.
Doubt it, there are a few issues with wireless charging at the moment, I remember hearing various issues with electromagnetic radiation a while back.
Looks likelogo on the back will be able to glow.
Holy crap I think your right. Upon further review it does appear that the apple logo is not just printed on.
I do. Nowhere else to really put it, is there? Too heavy for shirt pocket, too bulky for suit trouser pocket.

And we needed it so much ... a glowing logo !!! That's why I'll spend a fortune and get it asap : because of the glowing
... thanks Tim !Like a dock connector to hdmi and dock connector - I don't believe even USB 3.0 can do that.
Now one wow possibility - is a micro thunderbolt connector - only problem ARM's cpu don't support thunderbolt - dreaming maybe one day iPhone will use low power Intel CPU's
Looks like
That would be cool but murder the battery
The black is pretty nice looking.
The design must serve some new purpose other than the antenna though. Either new accessories, wireless charging, or something else. It's not purely aesthetic.

Top: Wireless
Bottom: NFC?
It can't be all Aluminum or the signal won't go through, it can't be all glass or it will break, it can't be all plastic or people will call it cheap. So they did hybrid.
Some guys have that problem!
They don't want things carried in their pockets to make anything look small. The rest of us don't have that problem.

O by the way, seems this render is very accurate?

Looks much nicer in the render
Would you care to post here? My work internet is blocking the site.
Don't worry about it, the link he posted to was a site showing the photos MacRumors commissioned
why direct people away to a site that is reporting photos from this site? God only knows....lol..i don't get you( but apparently, lots of people here do).. why the h*ll are you asking him to stop..just why?
I wouldn't say massive? I think an extra 3 to 5 mm wouldn't hurt?
But I won't get so wound up about the design as considering last years total iPhone redesign rumours were bogus, and I thought the pictures of the iPhone 4 were ugly, then I saw one in the flesh and that was me sold!
Longer=Bigger battery
Battery will be bigger. Breaks in the aluminum are for antenna reception. Cool.....but I am going to try on the Samsung Galaxy S3. I am very interested to find out if the S3 can do the equivalent of Airplay, which I use a lot. Nothing wrong with my Ip4. Just getting a little bored.

Engadget is quite funny - it use to be a good area for tech information - now it just full of Android loving, Apple hating kids.
Comments on there are so out of normal - it can be just fun to read how bias they are and so wrong.
nothing like this ?
This looks stunning. Why did this get downovoted to -35? This site is full of weirdos...
If that's the new iPhone as on page one (doubt it), it looks like utter uninspired crap.
I don't think it's tall. If the speaker and rear camera apertures are the same size as on the 4S, then the phone is about 2.625" wide, and the bezels together are about 0.1875", so that leaves room for a screen that is nearly 2.5" wide, which would give a vertical dimension of nearly 3.75", assuming that the aspect ratio is preserved. I can't see the screen being taller than that.
The brushed aluminum plate on the back makes it look tall because the strips on the top and bottom that are made of plastic do not correspond with the front opening for the screen, if you look at the antenna band on the left side of the white open case.
Though the case appears slightly wider, I don't think this is a change in the aspect ratio of the screen; I think that's an effect of the camera angle. The overall height of the phone appears to be identical to the 4S. With a narrower bezel, a slight increase in overall width of the phone and an increase in the percentage of the phone's height that is occupied by the screen, it appears that Apple may be able to squeeze a 4.3 to 4.5" screen into the case in the pictures.
To maintain retina resolution, the new iPhone (no, I'm not claiming that it will be called that, but who knows?) would likely have either 1.25 or 1.5 times the resolution of the 4S. The latter would be an easier multiplier, making it 3 times the resolution of the 3G and 4, but would require a higher pixel density.
