Photo of iPhone 5 screen shows larger diagonal, super thin bezel

01 March, 2011
Apple has been very consistent with the iPhone screen size - 3.5 inches and that's it. Of course, four iterations of equally-sized displays didn't discourage the bigger iPhone or iPhone nano rumors. The latest...

Not sure if this has been mentioned before. If the iPhone 5 screen is really 4" and keeps its 960x640 resolution, they can't call it a retina display anymore because the pixel density would drop to ~288 ppi. According to Apple's "definition" the density has to be above 300 in order to be called a retina display.

          As an Android users, if the iphone 5 has widgets then I might consider buying an iphone as I like the styling & camera quality, but if STILL no widgets i will stick with Android.

                      As an iphone 4 who is completly and utterly bored with all things Apple. wouldnt the most amazing thing Apple could do now is change the look of the UI i mean it is so boring with just rows and rows of apps or little blocks on blocks on apps its just dull i really think a refresh of the icons would be good.

                      Sorry i was told by my brother to try an iphone 4 i have and i cant wait to get out. games are good but for me thats it.

                                  Having a thinner bezel doesn't make it any more fragile than it already is. Because even now the entire front face is made out of glass, that thick black bezel of iPhone4 is just black paint. So size of the digitizer or the screen underneath it rarely matters.

                                    if the antenna problems still with the device, well need to think twice before buying a crap.

                                        iPhone will not have a screen size of 3.9" WTF?!
                                        Maybe 3.7" doubt will see a 4 inch screen. As rumors of a mini that would most likely be a 2.8"/3" inch screen.
                                        That picture of "iPhone 5" case is fake, look at the top part where the ear peice is, forget where the supposed front camera is meant to be but under it is tilted, at an angle. People need to chill out and wait. You really think after last time apple would let this picture be allowed on the web?
