not bad, i like it.

if that's real, someone F'd up, i wonder which Foxconn worker gets scrape-goated and illegitimately abused this year...by the apple/foxconn gestapo.
 
Real or fake, I like the design. It addresses a lot of issues users here were bitching about on the 3G/3GS.

The rocker volume - not flush, too far in, too far out.
The silent switch - rattle, breaking.
The power switch - not flush, too far in, too far out.
No chrome bezel to get scratched to hell and back.
Bigger, better speakers.
More room for a BIGGER battery.

So on so forth. Yet, with all those enhancements people are still bitching - it has seams. Freaking really? I'll take a seam with a bigger battery any day.

It looks like it has a nice weight and much bigger than the current release. Different design would be really nice at this point :)
 
No

This is the real iPhone 4G found on the floor of a San Jose Chuck E. Cheese :eek:

It looks like a boxier and thicker version of the 3G/3GS. Not a big fan.

Funny how it looks almost identical to this:

It actually looks nothing like that.

NOTHING like that?

Both have the same black glossy casing as the 3G/3GS and a thicker bezel, with more of a square-ish shape. Maybe not identical, but there is a resemblance.

People will always bitch about things relating to the iPhone. Hell, people are bitching now because multitasking isn't what they want it to be. :rolleyes:

And I'd say it's safe to say that Apple doesn't really care.
 
That first one with seams is actually a decent looking phone, i could totally see something like that from Samsung or Nokia, but as far as an Apple phone it's just not good enough. Its not their style. I highly doubt they'd go from a flat phone to a rounded one and the back to a flat one.

If anything I'd say it was merely a hardware prototype (as in new hardware in an ugly shell) but even that sounds like a stretch.

Just my 2 cents...
 
Apparently the people who have this supposed iPhone 4 are charging people to see it.

Everyone move on, there's nothing to see here but a couple of *******s doing a hoax.
 
I can't see that this is as being an Apple product at all. But in the end, how many times has that been said only for it to be the real deal, and by the time that happens, 99% of the people on here love it anyways, so let's wait and see.

Engadget posts a couple of images purportedly of a prototype iPhone 4G. The backstory is quite sketchy, however, though the site does believe it may actually get some hands on time with the device.
Apparently the phone was found on the floor of a San Jose bar inside of an iPhone 3G case. Right now we don't have a ton of info on the device in question, but we can tell you that it apparently has a front facing camera (!), 80GB of storage (weird, right?), and isn't booting at this point (though it was previously, and running an OS that was decidedly new).

Perhaps adding credence to the images, however, are a similar but separate series of images posted to TwitPic last month. The original source of those images appear to have been a Chinese twitter user.

Wow, I love this mockup. Apple would never make the home button touch sensitive ... so could you make one with a regular circular home button?
 
Hopefully just a prototype... i think it's uggggglllyyyy!

But def stoked about the front facing camera and "totally new software" that is was running before bricking.
 
I actually like the look of the thing (though I hope if they go this way there are no joints on the edge). More professional/serious looking.

Whoa, that is one of the most believable "leaks" I have ever seen. Prototype or not, it's definitely not fake. Maybe it was left behind on purpose ;)

I'd buy something that looked like that.
 
I notice this has the FCC logo on the back. To have that logo doesn't that suggest this had to go through the FCC, so wouldn't we have seen an FCC filing for the iphone 4G/HD if this was real? I could be wrong here.

FCC logo is there regardless, you don't think they are going to change the stamp and remove the FCC logo until it is approved by the FCC. Just like the iPad...

Obviously, it doesn't have a FCC ID that's why it's either a fake, a prototype, with a dummy FCC ID...
