Alleged iPhone 5 with a bigger screen spotted in the wild

26 April, 2011
The iPhone rumor mill keeps heating up today and it seems there's no stopping it any time soon. We came across some blurry shots of a white iPhone-wannabe with a much thinner bezel and a bigger...

ok, just a few "common-sense" rules to debunk the iphone 5 rumor:
1. having experienced quite the embarrassment on the leak of the iphone 4, apple must have been doing everything they can to prevent any future "preemptive" strikes. unlike the other infamous cellphone giants like htc, blackberry and sony ericsson, apple has been still *relatively* capable of keeping things in the bag.
2. if this were the real iphone 5, then we would most probably hear about legal actions (gizmodo, anybody?) and even security forces being recruited by apple against these sources. the internet is plagued with bloody iphone mockups, mostly with the prerogative of more visits or views. i'm sure apple is wise enough to select which sources to approach and which are just mundane attention-seekers.
3. do show a video of it under operation. fyi the video attached in this post is NOT from the new iphone 5. if i saw a video of even an iphone 5 with a lit screen then maybe i would give some credibility to the rumor.
4. if it really were the iphone 5 then i have to admit i am totally unimpressed. pay me to design instead and i'll show you what the iphone 5 should look like.

    It might be true and it can be fake too!!

    Bigger screen on the iphone 5 will be much appreciated but users are looking for new features that APPLE will come out with and also the new A5 processor!

      Fake! no doubt about it...
      the white color reveals the black bar on both sides of the display, so is it bigger in the end

        if this happens to be the iPhone 5,then I must say Apple designers dint get a salary hike for quite a long time.

                      And how big the aleged screen is, 3.7", 4" ?
                      No matter if the photo is true or not, apple aren't idiots to sit and let other phone manufacturers fade them, iphone 5 will definitely have a bigger screen and will be a big hit like all iphones.
