Purported Schematic Suggests 'iPhone 6s' Could Be Slightly Thicker, Retain Home Button

An astute observer will still be able to tell the differences between S models and their predecessor.

iPhone 3GS - text on back was in glossy white
iPhone 4S - antenna line breaks were symmetric on both sides
iPhone 5s - Touch ID sensor on front.

Yup, bothers me enough not to buy it. That and the antenna breaks. For a company that are all about aesthetics, (apparently), the 6 is a travesty.

There is an easy way to get rid of it. A thicker phone. I’d prefer that.

lol iPhone 6 is probably the best phone that has ever existed.

I'm using a 4S. I hate it and want to upgrade. But my fear is the lightning connector will change to a USB-C by the iPhone 7. Anyone have thoughts on that? Heck if the connectors will all change to USB-C I would love to upgrade my iMac, iPad, and iPhones all at the same time.

I'm afraid .2mm is not enough to get rid of the protruding camera. It is only a small difference we'll barely notice

Could camera improvements + this increase in thickness mean there is no more protruding camera?

I guess that'll be a change they'll leave for iPhone 7.

Also, people saying this is a result of Jony stepping away: it's just happened! Apple have the iPhone 6S finished, and the iPhone 7 nearly finished.

The first new design made with current management setup will be iPhone 8.

I'm starting to get excited for the 6s now! 😀 Come on September!

September is patiently awaiting it's turn after July and August. Time moves for no man.

Let's hope that Apple comes to its senses and bring out a 4" iPhone 6s with great battery life. Perhaps we should ask Taylor Swift to write an open letter.

I'm with you on both points - hate the antenna breaks and kinda dislike the protruding camera (and I don't much care for the overall rounded look of the phone either, although it does feel nice).

I do like the thinness though, I'd be happy if they keep making it thinner, but some camera innovation means no more protrusion. I don't actually care about a better camera.
