iPhone 4G to Appear as iPhone HD – There’s a Video to Prove it

by Jay Garrett on March 15, 2010

Ok, so I had dubious pics before and now here’s an equally dubious vid that points to the iPhone 4G following the Zune naming method and appearing as the iPhone HD.

According to this ‘leaked commercial’ the next gen iPhone sports a radically new chassis in which to house the higher powered camera and the front facing camera.

Word on the street is that the 4G data chips might not be ready for a Summer release of the iPhone 4G which could cause a delay or perhaps a renaming – iPhone HD?

I think I could get used to the design in the vid but how genuine is it? Is this just the musing of another talented and bored fanboy/girl or could this be a glimpse into what to expect?

Watch the vid and then share your opinions :)

iPhone 4G Leaked Pics or Return to Render?

by Jay Garrett on March 12, 2010

Now leaks are one thing and, being the untrusting fellow that I am, even though I want these shots of the iPhone 4G to be real I can’t help but shout ‘render!’.

True; plenty of work has gone into this and the exposed brickwork setting is very tasteful but something isn’t sitting right.

I like the idea of a choice of colours and docks for the next gen iPhone – do we still think it will have the name of 4G? Let’s face it; who thought Stevie J would go for iPad as a name?

These ‘leaked’ shots are all in their full glory on umpcfever.com.

I hope I’m wrong but I’m just not feeling this – are you?
