One of the nicest new iPhone mockups....and realistic

[GeekGirl*]

1. this concept has already been posted, even though it does look nice the "old" 3g is probably closer to the real thing.
2. the concept doesn't necessarily have a different screen/bezel, since the screen is off you can't really tell what's going on, can you?
3. ain't happening
4. if you drool over bigger screens Apple ain't for you, check out the new Samsung

3.7ish in. AM OLED HD capacitive screen and Toshiba TG01

4.1" and the hand model better be a man
5. there's a lot of studying ergonomics and such behind Apple's design choices, it really is perfect, no need to change that.

it's running windows so not perfect

now that is nice evolution of the design......

Looks a bit boring really. The iPhone is angled so much it's nearly pointing away from the viewer, and there's no color in the picture. The product is turned off, and thus no icons are showing.

Seems the previous campaigns preferred white background. Obviously could change, but it does provide a bit more contrast.

 

[alphatectz]

Agreed completely.



No. It CANNOT. I see no reason that this screen would be seen as larger on this mockup at all.

It does not look larger at all, anyway.

Hey it might be the same size as the 3g (yet it's still a mock up, a goodone but still a mock up) it doesn't hurt to extend the iPhone or make the bottom and top small so the screen can be wider.

 

[hefeglass]

best looking mockup yet..
i dont care what it looks like, but ill be getting it

They need to make the back less shiny. Once you use it it's no longer shiny and instead full of fingerprints.

Agreed. Make it matte and call it a day.

really whatever comes out will be nice because apple has such high standards

 

[StuddedLeather]

I LOVE this design. . .I honestly do Don't care about the screen size I just like the overall look. =)

Still one of my favorite mock-ups so far. Just lovely.

 

[=MuLti-CeLL=]

And yes, the screen looks slightly larger to me. That's just the way I'm seeing it.

Apple had higher standards for the original iPhone when it came to build quality, and I'm hoping they'll go back to those standards for the next gen iPhone.

Agreed completely.

Would you like to even pretend to have an argument? At least mention resolution or something!

The actually picture looks top notch, well done!

The screen/home button & bezel are the only visibles in the pic, what is the point instigating argument on resolution wen there is no visual or stats in relation to resolution.

The screen/home button & bezel are the only visibles in the pic, what is the point instigating argument on resolution wen there is no visual or stats in relation to resolution.

I think it stemmed more from the fact that the screen appears to extend all the way to the edge of the phone, as opposed to having a noticeable black border like the current iPhone. Generally people seem to have taken that as meaning that it's either got a larger screen or that the phone has been made thinner/shorter for this to occur. The argument to 'shoot down' the larger screen theory was that it would mean an increase in screen resolution, which wouldn't happen because it would mean Apple and all the app developers would have to rewrite the OS to accomodate said new resolution and anyone that didn't rewrite their apps would have it natively 'stretched' to fill out the entire display, making it pixelated and unattractive.

I really like the design as well. The front doesn't look all that different to me, but the back looks really nice. I would love it if it looked like that. Not holding my breath though. Maybe next year!

 

[Donz0r]

Very nice design!

And no, people, the screen is not bigger in this mockup, the bezels are just smaller on each side. I wish they would make some design changes like this this summer but I doubt they will. A matte back would be nice. At least all of my accessories will still fit, like my kind of expensive Proclip car holder

 

[ArtursBoy]

Here it is at a different angle, looks bigger to me.

Nike + iPod Sport Kit now supports video

 

[whitemacbook]

Here's a pic of the back, i like how the bezel wraps around the side buttons i guess to prevent all the cracks the 3g's have at the silent switch. But i heard the new iPhone wont have the chrome bezel on it.

the back makes it look like the imac to me
and their whole aluminium with black accented current designs

if you look very close:

you see a windows mobile operating system in the bottom photo with no home button or ear speaker.
then the device is at the top is clearly an ipod touch(just look at the video app that's present), and the fact of no ear speaker and there's a case on the device.
why were these photos used at all?

have you read the 4th point? If you or someone else wants OLEDs and larger screens, Apple isn't the solution, I showed a samsung and a toshiba, it is written.

To those that say there can't be a different screen size, well yes there could. See this post from another developer:

I went to a iPhone developer convention in Los Angeles a few months ago, and at the conference they were telling developers to make sure their applications were resolution independent and how to do that. They said that while it was unlikely that Apple would come out with new hardware for the iPhone OS that had a different resolution screen, it would still be a good idea to be ready for the inevitable.

The iPhone's display is 320x480 and is 3.5" diagonal. They could make a smaller or bigger iPhone OS device that has the same resolution and none of the problems you listed would exist. Applications are geared towards a display's resolution, rather than a display's physical size.

The mockup posted here is very nice.

The new iPhone CAN'T have a larger screen.

yes, it can, and eventually it will. apple stated from the beginning not to make app's resolution/size dependant...
http://www.forbes.com/2009/05/01/app...ech-apple.html

However, talk to a few of the thousands of developers who have flocked to build software for Apple's iPhone since last year and they'll say that Apple's instructions have always been very clear: Build your applications so that they're compatible with different screen resolutions and screen sizes.

"Apple has told us from the beginning to be sure to write our new software in a way that will accommodate different resolutions and screen sizes," Tapulus Chief Executive Bart Decrem says."

BTW... i love the home button. thats a cool idea, itd be even cooler if they make it touch sensitive*cough palm cough again pre*

 

[The General]

I don't like the seam above the home button.

 

[ptsube]

Maybe the screen is the same size, but the phone is smaller

In for 1.
