White next-gen iPhone apparently materializes in full form

Clearly a white front plate was not enough to satisfy curiosity. Though we aren't able to verify this ourselves, Chinese site Apple.pro has a couple shots of what it claims to be the white next-gen iPhone, almost fully assembled (the front plate looks like it hasn't been snapped in all the way) and casually lounging next to the black model we've gazed upon so many times at this point. Is this enough for us to trust and comfortably change our palette preferences? Nah, but surely 15 days until expected confirmation can't be too excruciating of a wait.

You Android fanboys are just a bunch of spec whores, what's the point in having all the specs and power in the world if it isn't used properly?

@sonola777 Buy yourself a nice and genial i486 computer, THEN complain about powerful phones.

[anotherworld Posted May 23rd 2010 5:47PM]

I love the new design. Always hated the old design.

[ResidentEVO Posted May 23rd 2010 5:56PM]

Not even a white iphone can stop me...hahaha...

[aelaos Posted May 23rd 2010 6:06PM]

Come on guys do you really believe that this abomination is the next Iphone? They are playing with our minds!!!

[benchase7 Posted May 23rd 2010 6:18PM]

will it be compatible with embeded Flash??

[Sooperfli91 Posted May 23rd 2010 6:26PM]

Looks fake. Looks like someone somehow made a fake button and placed a white screen on top of the black iPhone...

[kutt Posted May 23rd 2010 6:29PM]

I still want to know what that thing on top of the white iPhone is. Not sure which one I'd head for.

[Cold Dead Fingers Posted May 23rd 2010 6:39PM]

I don't know if I want a black or a white iPhone. The white 3GS was dissapointing because only the back was white, but these new ones, if real, look really good being full white, they actually look like newer Nokia phones (white one). In the end I think I'll stick to black, like always, but idk

[CuraeL Posted May 23rd 2010 6:44PM]

This looks sweet in white. I guess this is pretty much, something to trust.. I mean.. Black and white models.. Kinda like. .Standard on them iPhone thingy's eh? ;) White is stylish. ilu white.

[Stuntastik30 Posted May 23rd 2010 6:52PM]

I've been waiting for them to change the color of the front plate. but for some reason i still want the black one. Maybe if they'd start making multi color options like the ipod i'd chose differently.

[barry99705 Posted May 23rd 2010 7:03PM]

Why do they look kinda like squished Zunes?

[ProdigyOfGaming Posted May 23rd 2010 7:12PM]

Evo 4G rapes the iPhone

[sonola777 Posted May 24th 2010 1:52AM]

@ProdigyOfGaming Let me just say it now, if the iPhone 4 comes to Verizon It will be a very sad day for Android.

[Ardroid Posted May 23rd 2010 7:19PM]

Damn!

[krishna18388 Posted May 23rd 2010 7:44PM]

The white one seems to be a fake to me...

1.The depth of the white phone seems to be larger than the depth of the black one..

2. if you look close at the home button, you can see a black rim around it..

I personally think its a white face plate ( from earlier) that has been carefully positioned over another black phone.

Or am i just going crazy? lol

[EgonSpengler Posted May 23rd 2010 10:25PM]

@krishna18388 Home button is white. Also, read the article

[antistatic12 Posted May 23rd 2010 8:39PM]

Hopefully those smart men at Apple can make the battery better, if they can make it last as long as a Nokia E71, then i will thorugh mine out the window and get this...

Making a battery longer............theres an ap for that.

[ounkeo Posted May 23rd 2010 9:47PM]

@antistatic12

i don't know... that's going to be hard to do. E71 battery is legendary. I'm skeptical anyone can make a touchscreen phone last as long as that.

[Eddiez Posted May 23rd 2010 9:45PM]

Will they come up with product red iphone? White looks ugly.

[Wesscoast Posted May 24th 2010 1:01AM]

@Eddiez

Yeah probably we'll get lots of different colors, although, just getting a colored 'cover/skin' will do the trick.

Remember the iPod really took off when the iPod mini came out... with tons of funky colors.

[lyrik08 Posted May 23rd 2010 10:36PM]

One word HTC Evo got mine 2days ago from Google Io all I can say is iPhone who.......

[sonola777 Posted May 24th 2010 1:54AM]

@lyrik08 Yay, where happy for ya! Now crawl back under your troll bridge.

[lyrik08 Posted May 23rd 2010 10:39PM]

I'm sorry iPhone users but your days are numbered the new HTC Evo can't be touched no matter what you reply back with it just can't and I'm talking about the new 4th gen iPhone I got my Evo from Google io hands down nothing can touch it End of story just had to say this.....

[sighclops Posted May 24th 2010 4:40AM]

@lyrik08

android preachers are out in full force today... while i agree the evo is beautiful, it doesn't remove the fact that android is still terrible (and boring).

[EgonSpengler Posted May 24th 2010 8:30AM]

@lyrik08 I'm envious of the evo's specs as well but really the software is still behind iphone OS in terms of ease of use. Sure if you're a tech head then evo is your phone, but c'mon

[redkamel Posted Jun 29th 2010 3:55PM]

@lyrik08 your opinion is strengthened by not using periods it reminds me of when I read things written by eight year olds or people in such an ADD addled hurry that everything must be stream of consciousness so you ignore the most basic convention of written language known as the complete thought signified by the period

[pika2000 Posted May 24th 2010 12:05AM]

Come on Apple, black and white are boring. iPhone-chromatic please.

[robomatic Posted May 24th 2010 12:18AM]

is it just me but I don't like the new iPhone design.. IMO 3G looks better.

[Razi Posted May 24th 2010 2:40AM]

I can't wait for this :P

[qb2000 Posted May 24th 2010 2:49AM]

I am confused by the phones in this picture. I thought the phone has progressed to no more screws at the bottom plate as seen in the phone from Vietnam. Yet, these phones still have the screws.

[Marko Posted May 24th 2010 4:07AM]

Hey, what if the covers are removable, and user replacable?! HTC tatoo style!? I can see a potential for aftermarket covers!!!! Of course, all with a 'made for iphone' logo!

[trimalo Posted May 24th 2010 8:56AM]

Usually Apple is good for design but this time it lost its sex appeal to the great Nokia N8 with aluminium casing with 5 great colors,

[nickicks619 Posted May 24th 2010 11:02AM]

Does anyone else think the edges on the new "iPhone 4g/HD/whateveryoucallit" Awkward? I'm sorry, I just.. I'm not much of a fan of the new design. I like the fatty grips on iPhone,3g,3gs..

[mikehenriquezsv Posted May 24th 2010 11:58AM]

So many leaks....i don't know but it feels something's not ok about this.

[WYGUY Posted May 24th 2010 2:20PM]

Wow a rectangle with rounded corners. Why the nerdgasms over this device?

[fast Posted May 24th 2010 5:24PM]

Strange thing is...this one makes the last look better...damn!

[cdolander Posted May 25th 2010 4:04PM]

It is an obvious plastic snap-on to a black iPhone (see recessed home button with black edging shown).

[Dellibedaboss Posted Jun 29th 2010 4:35PM]

Yes. I want that one, please....
