The "supposed" next-gen iPhone Design

I do not like it, but I wouldn't go this far... I hate that it is only stretched, and I dislike the two toned back
Good point, but It was much hard to imagine what the iPhone 4 would look like and how it would feel in your hand. This is much easier to imagine. It is a slightly thinner + 0.5" taller version of my current phone.
Agreed, I will never appreciate the two tone back. I do not think 4" is enough of an increase, and I do not like the idea of 16:9 on the phone.
I have tried Android, but I just am not a fan. I played with the S3 the other day. I could tell how much it had improved over the S2 I used to have for my work phone, but I still just did not like the operating system.
I agree with this. I don't ever use cases on any of my phones, so I'm hopeful the two tone isn't as exaggerated as the leaks appear.
Liked it from the beginning. Not necessarily the longer screen...but the casing.

Yet they all bought it anyway.

I voted "Disliked it at first but then started to like it" mainly because of the black version. It more appealing to me than the white version. I do agree with calidude though, I believe theres gonna be a lot of disappointed people out if it all turns out to be the leaked device.
Yeah right. The iPhone 5Gun-metal is the IT phone to get next month. Are you crazy? There are no gunmetal Androids or Windows phones.
If you don't have a Gun-metal, ...well you simply don't have a Gun-metal.
The poll results would be the same with every single generation iPhone no matter how Apple designs it (at least before its debut).
Okay? More people opted out of the iPhone for a different design and bigger screen as such.
Disappointed so much by new design.It's terrible.
The phone shouldn't have a big display
I'm try to explain why- on 3.5 inches it is easy to operate phone,when on 4 its rather hard - fingers don't get till the end of display(4 inches),even on 3.5 its little harder to manage icons on the display
maybe the overall maximum will be 3.8- but not bigger(phone should have proportional forms as Steve guided)
with 4 inch it looks like spade)))
I will not be surprised if in 2014 phone 6 would be even uglier than today " iphone 5".
Unconditional it will be better than the others(samsung etc) but the counter was lost.
Big audience of people will buy 4-4s further by discount(if certainly they don't need the big display)

After reading a bunch of your posts, I'm guessing you carried a Chihuahua in your purse when that was the IT thing to do.
I really like it and always have. The 16:9 ratio is perfect for a phone, notice almost all android handsets going with a QHD or 720p displays, which are all 16:9? I like the thought of the unibody and the new docking port. Plus LTE. Only faults may be battery life and I would have prefered a 4.3" screen with a curved back, but everything else seems good.
Lol! Yeah, a few techys that frequent the macrumours boards and bitch about any rumors that come out!!!
The rest of the real world (and even the people who are bitching now if history repeats itself) will buy buy buy it and enjoy the crap out of it!!!
More people than what? Do you have some stats to back that? iPhone sales certainly don't back up your claim.
If that is the supposed design..then well..
I like it..
I don't love it as much as the current one..but it's looking to be a good phone.

I'm still on the fence whether to upgrade to this from my 4. I'm not excited about it or iOS 6 at all. As far as innovation goes, that's in Microsoft's court now. WP8 and MS's proposed ecosystem makes iOS look like the 5 year old OS it is.
Oh! I am so sorry oh wise and intelligently articulate one, I did not realize that owning a different company's phone precluded me from partaking of the conversations on a forum!!
God forbid if we had a forum where only all of the happy fluffy Mac bunnies sit together and nibble on the same rainbow coloured vegetation and nod in agreement with nothing to discuss other than how much we agree with each other!!
Someone should explain these new forum rules to me!!
Hmmmm....I missed the part where I said you shouldn't be here. Oh, because I didn't say it.
Guess you can't answer a simple question.
