Apple’s new iPhone, which is currently rumored to
launch in September or October,
is reportedly going to be the first iPhone to have a larger display.
Multiple reports have suggested that the new iPhone will feature a
4-inch screen, and
iLounge’s Jeremy Horowitz is throwing his
weight behind it as well. Additionally, he’s reporting that the device
will be taller and 20% thinner than the current iPhone 4S. The back of
the device will have a metal panel according to the report, though it
won’t cover the entire back of the phone. This seems a little strange,
especially with
iLounge’s rendering. What about the white
version? Lastly, there will indeed be a new dock connector to make room
for the thinner case, so no doubt third-party accessory manufacturers
are going to be thrilled about that, but Apple’s move to introduce a
thinner and smaller dock connector is likely a necessary step toward
making the iPhone insanely thin. One barrier that Apple has not yet
tackled is the 3.5 mm headset jack, which some day might disappear
completely in favor of Bluetooth and AirPlay streaming. One more mockup
of the new iPhone from
iLounge is after the break.
