iPhone 6 concept shows off a large display and thin body

iPhone 6 concept shows off a large display and thin body

Another iPhone 6 render suggests a big screen and a svelte chassis

Another day, another iPhone 6 concept. The trend at the moment seems to be for making your Apple videos look as much like a real Apple commercial as possible.
Overall the handset has a thinner profile than the current iPhone 5 and a much larger display, which looks like it could be 4.7-inches, or thereabouts.
The back panel seems to still be aluminium and it retains a two-tone colouration, but it’s slightly different now with a glossy panel at the bottom and a matte finish for the top three quarters. The current iPhone has these contrasting panels at both top and bottom and a matte section in the middle.
The display doesn’t appear to be quite edge-to-edge, but the bezel is extremely narrow along the two longer edges. The punched speaker grill is still present and the Lightning connector on the bottom, however, the physical Home key has disappeared completely, suggesting some kind of gesture control.
Current rumour implies the next iPhone, to be launched in either the Summer or Autumn of this year, will be the iPhone 5S and will be an incremental update on the iPhone 5.
It’s said it’ll include multiple iPod style colour options and a fingerprint scanner under the Home key for use with some new method of mobile payment or e-wallet as its main points of appeal.
The iPhone 6 is believed to be arriving in 2014 and it’s thought it may be the debut device for Apple’s next generation A7 processor, which could be a quad-core chip.
It’s also widely reported the iPhone 6 will have a larger display, something the concept render aptly demonstrates.
It was previously thought the iPhone 5S might have a bigger display than the iPhone 5’s 4-inch Retina screen but more recent rumours would suggest it’ll remain similar to the current model in the overall shape and size.
