The iPhone 6 is about to become one of the biggest upgrades in iPhone
history, with expectations for not one, but two larger-screen models: a
4.7-inch iPhone 6 coming first in the fall, and a 5.5-inch model to
arrive shortly after.
While we’re still months away from their
official unveiling, Sonny Dickson, the Australian kid who made a name
for himself last year, leaking pre-release images of the iPhone 5s and
5c, now strikes again with full mockups showing what the 4.7” and 5.5”
iPhone 6 are very likely to look like.
Both models look
stunningly thin, and also very similar in terms of design, adopting iPad
mini-like aesthetics with curvier edges. The larger screens in both
have forced some changes in terms of button layout - the lock key is no
longer on top (where it’d be hard to reach), but has moved to the right
side, closer to the thumb (if you’re right handed). On the back, Apple
has reduced the antennas, leaving
just small strips of plastic that
almost do not interrupt the apparently aluminum matte back of the iPhone
6. Interestingly, Apple seems to have also ditched the pill-shape
dual-tone flash in the iPhone 5s for a simpler, round one (a single one
seemingly).
Up front, you can see how the 4.7-inch iPhone has a
fairly sizeable bezel, while the 5.5-inch one, in contrast, has almost
non-existent side bezel, and is very compact for its size. Pictures of
these next iPhones come in white, gold, and gray, the already
established iPhone color palette.
And while this is not the first
iPhone 6 leak (Taiwanese pop star Jimmy Lin posed with an allegedly
leaked iPhone 6 a few days ago), it looks like the most detailed one,
coming from a proven source. We can imagine the secrecy-loving people at
Apple are not very happy with this, but what we’re more curious about
is your thoughts on this new design: do you like it or not?
