I do understand evolutionary styling, but this is the 3rd generation and all they really have changed are the bezel & back colors and materials. I sure hope Apple dazzles us a little bit with some sort of enhancements.
 
How can any of you guys possibly think that is the new iPhone? All software aside, the hardware looks like a step backwards... IT'S FAKE.
 
Apple Logo as Camera Flash

Could the now supposedly lit Apple logo be used for the Camera Flash?
 
I'd rather have the jack on the bottom, just in case it starts raining while I'm talking on the phone ;)

Damn you water sensor!
 
This kinda looks legit, but the main problem is that if it REALLY is the NEW IPHONE V3... then how come the SMS sign is still there...it's SMS not Messages...that kinda boggled my mind.. Any ideas?

You are a little late. There are 7 other pages full of the same comments. This is the wrong OS on there, plus, is it me or do these images slant in some unnatural way? This is a fake.
 
I see what you're saying.
But, if they need to have a speaker on one side and a microphone on the other side on the bottom of the iPhone, where does the jack go?

Who knows indeed...... I bet people at Apple do.....

Move the speaker to the top so that it points toward the user when watching videos or whatevever, move the microphone to the other side and put the headphone jack where the mic use to be.

Done.

I believe we have already reached the consensus of deciding that it is fake. Good job posting this after about 150 replies in which most people decided it was fake. Go away.
 
If this is real, it doesn't look half bad. Every time I see a "leaked" picture of a new Apple product it usually looks sketchy and ugly, but as soon as I lay upon it in the store I like it.

I'm very sick of all this iPhone news and can't wait until Monday to tone it down a notch :p

Ebony and Ivory phones. Paul McCartney is the spokesperson and he releases The Beatles exclusively on iTunes. :D

Haha, I'd like that for sure.

You lay upon new Apple products in the store? Hopefully not in too personal a way. :eek:
 
I like it. Especially the headphone jack at the bottom. ME WANT NOW.

This time around I'm gonna go for the white version if there is one. I wish I would have gotten the white instead of black last year.
 
Yeah I find it odd that the OS isn't 3.0

It doesn't have the search feature or any of the new apps. So... IS this the new iPhone? Doubtful Apple would produce this image without an OS that's already been demoed.
 
Just because it's not running 3.0 doesn't mean this isn't what the iphone could look like...

They might just want to show off what the phone looks like. I'm sure they are aware that people will know it's not 3.0...

What I find most funny about when images emerge on the site is the "ITS FAKE!" Factor.

Let me drop a theory on the forum that seems logical amongst other things.
The images pattern of products that were real(Since I have been a member of this site):

1. Mac book air image (More than 90% of the posts were claiming fake)
2. iPhone 3G image of the black version (Probably same to a more higher ratio)
3. Mac Mini (Same situation except closer to 95%)
4 iPhone V3 (Same pattern as previous images of products that have been proven to be real)

Whenever I read about a product that is near being released or that this site has received images of a product that has not been really discussed in depth.
9 out of the 10 times the product that is deemed not real or false or "IT'S CLEARLY A FAKE!!" tends to be the actual product.

So that being said, Im really following these images as a base image of what the actual product might look like.
Maybe they photoshopped the rest so that the actual system would not be revealed like it has been said a few times over here on the site.

The contour of the image from the side is like that of a few images that show the contour of the iphone.
These images clearly show some features that resemble the ipod touch (Headphone jack on the bottom,power button repositioned)

I think one of the most compelling hardware standouts of these images are the little button on the bottom right hand side of the image(Another hardware feature that people have begged and pleaded for in order to take photos/self portraits)
But what kind of strikes me as odd, and not sure if anyone else read in to it or
thought about it.
Someone mentioned that the FCC on the back of this image is shown as in "white".This goes for all of the writing on the back
From looking at the image(The original image from iSpazio's website) and kind of summing it up, maybe the apple logo on the back lights up as well as the writing on the back. Instead of it just being stamped , maybe its etched.
I know this might be a long way from whats what when it comes to that part.

But for the most part I am voting for this image to be what the new iPhone V3 (Video 3G) is going to look like or resemble.
 
fishy fishy

here's some things that make me think that it is a mock up
1. volume control and lock buttons on the center image and on the side image are on the different height. I think it is because they just took the image of 2G iPhone and pasted buttons over, but in the wrong spot.
2. There is no contacts app
3. Extra button on the lower side is also on the different height on front and back image.
4. text on the back is not centered and slightly turned ccw.
5. side image does not have power button
6. May 13th, that was a Wednesday shown on the calendar icon, it is unlikely that that day is chosen for the official image and it somewhat too early for unofficial image, since it surfaced only now.

Wow. Sry for stating my opinion? Somebody needs to chill.
 
There is no search icon on the home screen of iPhone OS 3.0

I hope not as well. I've always hated the jack on the bottom, like when I had an iPod touch.

Jack on the bottom is brilliant, really improves the use for listening to music, and not picking the device out of one's pocket upside down. Currently it is really annoying; I've never worked out where the idea of jack on top came from, hopefully whoever was responsible left.

Either way, stereo bluetooth will render that point moot.
