Is this iPhone 5’s front panel?

Listen to article

With so many purported iPhone 5 parts being leaked, finding the real deal is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Then again, none of the parts can be proven real to begin with.

As far as we know, the iPhone 5 is said to be taller and will come with a smaller dock connector as well as a larger screen, the alleged [albeit slightly-longer] screen panels are hinting that the popular smartphone from Apple will be sporting a 4-inch display, we’re speculating that the smaller dock connector ‘may be’ a sign of new iPod models to come since the last refresh they’ve done to their line of music players still dates back in September of 2010.

Apple focuses mostly on the ergonomics of their devices so we’re guessing that by adding 5 millimeters to the iPhone 4’s height and reducing the bezel size (both top and sides) can suffice for a larger screen without making the phone too broad to hold as suggested by the recent leaks.

Now, a new leak suggests that the upcoming iPhone will now have a centered FaceTime camera situated on top of the panel’s earpiece. You guys do the judging for us.

We advise that you take these things with a grain of salt since we’re doing exactly the same thing, but a little something to talk about every now and then isn’t so bad is it? Come to think of it, we’re really hopeful that Apple will release new iPods in the next few months — along with the phone that everyone’s been waiting for of course!

Replace “ergonomics” with “aesthetics” else, the iPhone would not have flat edges and surface because our fingers and palms are not naturally flat.

iPhones are usable with just one hand (as well as the OS) compared to most Android phones within the same price range (21,000 – 30,000 pesos).

Same with their Macbook and iMac keyboard and trackpad designs, comfortable to use and beautiful at the same time. Except for their magic mouse — well, Apple is never good at designing computer mice.

If I wrote what you have stated, I would have been trolled by now so I think that mentioning ‘ergonomics’ suits the statement best.

Thanks!
