A shame if true because it looks great and has all the features needed. I can even live with iTunes if it has a flash, decent camera and a SIM card - because presumably that means you can use it as a mass storage device.]]>Apr 18th 2010 4:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/

I don't know about that, but I don't know about this source either.

How would Apple increase the resolution of the screen without screwing up compatibility with the entire app store? I doubt they want to go the way of Android and split up their ecosystem any more than they did with the iPad.]]>Apr 18th 2010 4:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/
Those photos claiming it is a Japanese fake were probably released by Apple in an attempt to discredit the leak. ]]>Apr 18th 2010 4:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/
If that's the new Apple design then they need to fire their product designers. They shouldn't be getting *worse* looking.]]>Apr 18th 2010 4:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/

Hmm... difficult to tell.

Anyway, not seeing a micro USB charger on it which is being phased in across Europe so starting to have more doubts.]]>Apr 18th 2010 4:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/Engadget just wants freaking ad revenue by posting this shit up.

The current iPhone has a SIM card. Are you confusing a SIM card with a MicroSD card? Otherwise I'm confused.]]>Apr 18th 2010 4:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/Apr 18th 2010 4:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/
The bottom of this leak looks awfully similar to the iPads flush bottom...no screws or anything like we were used to seeing on the bottom of an iPhone

I put up this similarities to the iPad video: http://theurbangeek.com/2010/04/17/iphone-4g-hd-leaked-shares-ipad-similarities/ ]]>Apr 18th 2010 4:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/
Mr blurrycam =/= proof]]>Apr 18th 2010 4:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/Apr 18th 2010 4:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/
My bet is that it's a test device used for real world testing of the operating system and the wireless network. It just doesn't look like a finalized design, but rather a test unit. I have a friend who works at Apple and helped design the iPhone 3G (I know everyone says crap like this so you'll just have to believe me or not), and he has lots older test devices like iPods, etc. around his home. Oddly, though, none of the devices I ever saw at his place ever had the FCC data on the back (I remember this because it stuck out to me and he even commented that the test devices were a purer version of their iPod design because it didn't have all the crap written on the back). So, I don't know what to make of it, but I'll still guess test device.

NOTE: I'm not claiming to have any insider information. Any test device I've ever seen was of older products, they were only iPods, and my friend would never reveal anything secret to me if even I tried to ask (I've never been dumb enough to ask because I'm sure it would be annoying as hell to him).]]>Apr 18th 2010 4:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/
a higher res cam, thank god. they forgot to mention mr blurry cam snapped that grab with an iphone 3gs...

If you zoom in on the phone to the far upper right you can clearly see that the left side of the phone is the exact same device uncovered yesterday... Rounded buttons and all. ]]>Apr 18th 2010 4:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/I can just see the announcement:

We are going to revolutionize not just cell phone but that of all mobile devices. We have made 30 new patents in this invention:

Look at the new iPhone 4g it has three new amazing features
4g
removable battery (10 pattens filed on this new invention)
Removable micro SD car ( 2 pattens filed on this)
18 other pattens files because we can

It will cost you only $600... for the battery.... cover]]>Apr 18th 2010 4:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/Apr 18th 2010 4:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/
no, just look at the other red arrow, the one pointing at a phone that has no case and a very distinct flat silver colored side, that is what they are claiming is the iPhone 4G]]>Apr 18th 2010 4:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/

This is strong evidence that this may be the next gen iPhone. However this certainly does NOT qualify as proof.]]>Apr 18th 2010 4:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/Apr 18th 2010 4:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/

WO! How did we all miss that when the original picture came out?!

It clearly contradicts Apple's design choices for all of their previous devices as well as their movement towards unibody designs for all their products.

The phone laying on the iPad IS NOT the iPhone 4G, why would Apple have the iPad (which was releasing that day) bolted down, and yet a device that is months away from being launched just able to fly around all willy-nilly. Makes absolutely no sense.

The pictures from the TwitPic also show a removable battery, which Apple has no plans in offering. Which is obvious from their current progression and change of terms in their Warranty wording for the iPad.

You may want to believe this is the Unicorn you are seeking, but it's clearly and obviously not. It's just another knock off (look at the seams...Apple doesn't do seams). I am an Apple Fanboy, and I would have rather seen another Kin sexting Ad, than a fake iPhone and rants from people who actually believe this atrocious design is it.]]>Apr 18th 2010 4:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/
Yesterday I wasn't such a big fan of the design.. but you know what, I think I've come around. I can't wait until June, ughhh why do I have to be upgrade eligible on 5/13!?]]>Apr 18th 2010 4:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/Apr 18th 2010 4:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/ THE 7 in 1 picture shows NO SCREWS between SPEAKERS and DOCK CONNECTOR.

THE picture of the BACK of the phone, saying XXGB etc, HAS GOT SCREWS inbetween SPEAKERS and DOCK CONNECTOR.

Let's just put it as this: no one knows and no one WILL know if this thing is the next iPhone. So stop trying to prove it false (and to Engadget don't prove it true either) because at this point absolutely NO ONE knows.

Just enjoy the ride :)]]>Apr 18th 2010 4:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/http://bit.ly/4g-iphone-going-to-verizon]]>Apr 18th 2010 4:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/
Josh T

I love you guys at Engadget and for your sakes I hope you're not wrong but I honestly believe that this is fake. It's just too ugly to be anything from Apple.

Furthermore the Apple Haters are cheering this on because they know this is a radically different design that looks horrible. That alone confirms to me that this is huge disaster in the making if it's true.

This isn't Apple Design. I hope to God that it's changed by June.

Also I really WANT an OLED or Super AMOLED screen from Samsung.

Make it happen Apple!]]>Apr 18th 2010 4:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/
"why would Apple have the iPad (which was releasing that day) bolted down, and yet a device that is months away from being launched just able to fly around all willy-nilly. Makes absolutely no sense."

Maybe so you can pick it back up and walk away with it and no one's the wiser? It still isn't announced. Why would you want to bolt it down to the table?]]>Apr 18th 2010 4:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/

They may change small things here and there (e.g. the aluminum sides don't look like they're one piece) but all-and-all I think is what an iPhone will be in June.]]>Apr 18th 2010 4:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/18/iphone-4g-proof/Apr 18th 2010 4:46PM
