I don't think this picture is on the forum but I just found it on HuffPost this morning.



edit: Bigger picture.

Doesn't match the rumors of a centered front-facing cam. Yes, I know they're rumors, but evidence so far would suggest these pics are not real or accurate.
 
I would buy it in a heartbeat.

Why do you say it looks photoshopped? Just because it's different from the other RUMORS doesn't mean it's not feasible.

i never understood the "leaked" photos. If I had that thing in my possession I would upload every angle of the phone..probably the main reason people scream fake
 
you can see the poor photoshop work on the carpet around the perimeter of the phone. its the most obvious on top by where the lock button is

+1. Also if you look VERY closely to where the adapter plugs in, it has the normal iPhone connector, where the other leaked photos have the mini adapter.

very true, and that is one thing I am almost certain is true....they changed it on the macs, so it makes sense
 
Dock connector is also the same size as the iPhone 4/4s. Doesn't match rumors suggesting a smaller region there
 
Eh, I would need to see more angles (and the back). If its a Photoshop (easy to do) I doubt they would think to hide the model number.

I think wider is much better. Any iPhone I've used has been a little uncomfortable to use in portrait.

Ahh, I love the size of the current phone, but I think the rumored 4" would be perfect. I don't want a mini tablet in my pocket!
 
Definitely fake. It's an enlarged iPhone 4 (photoshop) with the old dock connector, old speaker (as we saw in the leaks), old iPhone 4 (not 4S) antennaband and the front facing camera location does not match other leaks.

Conclusion: fake.
 
I'd prefer the elongated model, I like typing with one hand when the other isn't free.

I agree...i like to use my phone with 1 hand if I need to, and that is risky and hard with the wider phones (granted I have small ass hands).
 
I have an iphone4 and i say:
iphone5 with same design as 4 = fail (doesn't matter if it's elongated or whatever). Apple has to change the design...
 
Looked pretty good until I saw the bottom with 30 pin connector.

Fake. Try again. :rolleyes:

When people say fail....i think they forget it will still be their best selling phone to date...always is. They are so good at marketing that they will make you "think" you need the phone. Like they did with siri in the 4S

I have a Galaxy Nexus and it's far from a mini tablet. Its very easy to pocket and its thin and light. The Note is a mini tablet. 4.3"-4.5" is a good size for a phone.

It might sell, but it can still be a fail. I believe the iPhone 4's antenna was a fail, but over-all the iPhone 4 was one of the best, if not the best, smartphone in 2010.
