Next Gen iPhone 4G will Look Different

by Jay Garrett on February 22, 2010

This is what I’ve been expecting/hoping but now ‘industry experts’ are saying that the Apple iPhone 4G will look quite different from the iPhone 3GS.

Alriiiiiiiiiiiiiight!

Barclays analyst Ben Reitzes reckons that Apple “will try to change the game on everybody – it bothers them that everyone stole their form factor.”

I can totally see where he’s coming from and the fact that Apple has made a name for itself as being a ‘game changer’ the Appley one might be looking to make a leap rather than another minor tweak.

Let’s face it – Since its release in 2007 the iPhone’s exterior design hasn’t changed but still has become an icon.

In comparison, the iPod did change quite a lot in its first three years.

Would you prefer the iPhone to stay the shape that we’ve all come to know or love or, like me, hope for a change – kinda like the move from the original iMac to the lovely angular modern art pieces that the Apple desktops have become? Perhaps mirroring the MacBook in construction and feel?

C’mon Apple! The HTC Legend has actually beaten you to the aluminium unibody look!

Let me know below :)

Hey Apple Fanpeople!

Have you already decided which model iPad you’re going to get?

Made the decision whether or not to add £130 to the price and get it with 3G?

Can’t wait for that shot of new, shiny Geekahol?

Well, you’ve probably got an iPhone right?

If it happens to be a jailbroken handset then you can make your JesusPhone look like the new Apple tablet thanks to this workaround that uses apps from the App Store and Cydia.

Just follow the video’s instructions and you can have that iPad look and feel, an iBooks-esque app, New York Times reader and the Kindle book catalogue all before the iPad hits the streets!

Watch and learn my gadgety faithful :)
