Photos of the next iPhone panels reveal larger screen, metal back

29 May, 2012
The leaked photos also hint at a smaller dock connecter as well as a thinner casing.

You Dorian and Dr. X are both wrong respectively!

I have 3.2" htc hero and upgraded to 4.3" sgs2 which I feel bit too wide. I'm an Asian guy and my palm size are not as big as you know.
Then I switch to nexus s which screen not as wide as s2, but the handle is perfect!

Apple know that 4" screen is the Size for all!

When will Android, specially hTC comes up with 4" screen is my next question.

They have 4.3" one X and S, also 3.7" one V and 4" nothing.

    This is Certainly a Fake and not Real Just a Moc...Just Look at the 32pin connector socket....it looks like its micros USB which Apple will never get them onboard..

      I'd have to say that after using 3.2" screen, a 4" screen and a 4.6" screen somewhere near a 4.3" screen would probably be the sweet spot for me.

          Dr.X, 29 May 2012i like the 3.5 inch screen much better. every company , are... moreyou are WRONG!
          3,5 is too small for smart jobs (team viewer, remote desktop, etc) or more office jobs...
          4,3 is IDEAL for ALL!
          SGS2 proved with its elegance, weight, slim and big-screen, full functionality for all the smart use!
          I am Administrator in my company and i don't have Notebook anymore, SGS2 with big screen replacing all netbook-desktop jobs useful :)

              I read some time ago on BBC news website that all major phone makers had agreed a switch to micro USB chargers to save people from binning their old chargers when they change phones. This is in an effort to reduce land fill or something dont take my word for it, check it out...so the micro USB style port on this would make perfect sense!

                how do they work out screen size by resolution alone??? the HTC rezound has a resolution of 1280x720 as does the HTC One X, yet the rezound is 4.3" and the One X is 4.7". the phone could have a low or high PPI density altering the screen size

                        why do all you guys beleave that this is the ''real'' iphone? it surely isnt going to look anything like the current iphone as steve jobs is dead and at the end of the day he was the main man who approved/disaproved all the ideas of the iphone 3 and 3g and 4 and 4s.. you guys have to remember that there is different designers etc for apple and steve jobs obviously doesnt have a say in what the next one is going to look like so people dont think this is the next iphone as above on the pictures. look at the rumours on this site months ago saying there was a iphone 5 straight after the 4 but yet then they realised the IPHONE 4S which was a big shock to everyone world wide :)

                          The two-tone back doesnt look "classy" enough. Sure, you newer know with apple.
                          But a full metal back, would look better, and then, they could have white or black lists around the phone, where its metal on 4 and 4s.
                          And maybe a small list at the top part, in metal.

                          Anyone could hope for a mini-usb standard port, that would make it so much easier for third party acessory makers. But why would apple make that move?

                                I thought apple said that they'll never go anything bigger than the 3.5 since it'll be uncomfortable to hold (talking about samsung galaxy lineup)

                                well..

                                        Does anyone know if iphone 5 will have WiFi Direct to transfer files to other phones? WiFi Direct is the same as Bluetooth but it is faster
