patron Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 http://gizmodo.com/5520164/this-is-apples-next-iphone As crazy as the lost in a bar, and found by a writer of one of the biggest techo sites out there is, it seems pretty legit.

kirbypuckett Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 The article on Giz is great, love that site. Not too sure how I feel on the look of the device, but I'm sure changes will be made. I still don't understand the obsession with a front facing camera, but everything else looks great. Sometimes I wonder, how many leaks are just planted on purpose to get an idea.

sgoodcore Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 I agree with Gizmodo's conclusions its the real thing. I like the design. It looks more technologically advanced in the new form factor. Looks more masculine for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With these additions I could easily see myself switching to this from my BB. As long as the memory is increased to at least 64gigs, that is. The back of the model they found says XXGB.

kirbypuckett Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Regardless, I'm buying this Day 1 unless some crazy Android device comes to AT&T soon. I don't even want the Nexus One now that they Incredible is out and better. My only problem is, the only way I really justify these phones is to be on a family plan. It's A LOT cheaper. However, my dad wants to get off of AT&T in favor of Verizon (AT&T doesn't work at our camp). So I'll probably have to pay full price for this damn thing rather than the subsidized price so that the contract isn't upped another 2 years. #3rdworldproblems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirbypuckett Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Looks more masculine for sure. That's a great way to describe the appearance. I always though that the current iPhones, especially the white were a little too slick in appearance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamlikesmusic Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 I liked the rounded form factor of the iPhone, gave it a slimmer feel. Though it appears the new one is actually thinner, so I suppose I can accept that. I'll be waiting to upgrade until the 2011 revision, but it's always awesome to hear what's new regardless.

scotterson Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 I'll be waiting to upgrade until the 2011 revision, but it's always awesome to hear what's new regardless. Agreed. I think it looks great. I never minded the rounded back, but was never huge on it either. Also, I can't tell for sure obviously, but it looks like the back is much less glossy, which I hope is true. I hate the shininess of the back + the chrome bezel of the 3gs, although I keep it in a case that covers both...so that's being extremely picky.

adamlikesmusic Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 ^ The new back is supposedly glass/ceramic, which I'm sure is quite shiny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotterson Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 ^ The new back is supposedly glass/ceramic, which I'm sure is quite shiny. Yeah, I read that, which makes sense, but looking at them together it seems much softer. I really don't like the not-so-seamless bezel. Hopefully that gets sorted out, or Apple convinces me that it's necessary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamlikesmusic Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Ah, gotcha. I read a quick overview of the article, but didn't actually check it out as I'm on my phone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomleggett Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 I'm hoping they use the technology to make the screen scratch proof on the back, which it looks like they are if its ceramic. the thing looks amazing, its gonna be hard to stop myself getting one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
