Done:
You mean like they do with the MacBook Air?
When case designs were supposedly leaked from china and those mock-ups were put out,I was really excited and looked forward to buying this ipad2/ipod touch looking aluminium backed beauty as 64gig model in white with 4" screen. However, it looks more and more likely that the next incarnation of the iphone is really just an update of iphone 4. The design is *****...period...If all they can come up with after 15months between models is a iphone 4s with a work around for the antenna and slighty better camera, then I'm not joining you iSheep..The antenna issue should have been fixed with the white iphone 4 not the new model 15 months later. It was time for Apple to up their game a year ago with Android catching them up with hard and software. I'd hoped at least they would come with a game changer this time, but alas we're just gonna be drip-fed more outta date tech.
Samsung should just change their ads to "Thinnest smart phone that actually ********* works!"![]()
It's getting pretty ugly between these 2 companies now.
Why not just average the thickness of the entire device, and use that?
thank god, i can finally rest easy tonight knowing which giant corporation produced the thinnest cell phone.
Seems silly that companies are fighting over this. I definitely wouldn't want a phone thinner than the iPhone 4 anyway... hopefully Apple doesn't get hung up on the "title" and castrate the next redesign. -_-
Is that a joke?
- How do you propose to do that?
EmbraceTheOne said:It might by thinner, but then you have that ugly lump at the top of the phone. It should be taken into consideration when measuring.

The only way the iPhone could possibly become thinner would be to give it a larger footprint. Since the Android handset already has a larger footprint, they'd hardly be winning any design awards even if it WAS thinner. Apple are masters in compact design and have paved the way for other company's in reality. It's just a shame that many people scoff and say "Apple didn't create touch screen technology", or "hmm yeah, the phone was invented in 2007"... Because if it wasn't for Apple we would still have lagging interfaces like the Prada phone. They might not have invented the wheel, but they sure as hell perfected it.
Another Apple win.
Samsung needs to change out their legal team.
Or . . . stop messing with others' IP.
Use the design schematics of the phone. Calculate the weighted average of its thickness. Really not that hard ...
"This business will get out of control. It will get out of control and we'll be lucky to live through it."
Think of it this way. You have a slot or hole of adjustable size (like a small letter box). At 9.4mm the entire iPhone would have fitted through it, the Galaxy S II would not have - therefore the iPhone is quite clearly thinner.
A comparision of the devices' thickest points is obviously the fairest way to decide a claim of being the thinnest, I think ASA got this one exactly right.
