Engadget posted a new article showing the “New” iPhone sitting on a prototype iPad. They have had this photo for months. Their source has confirmed that this picture is the next iPhone and some of the following upgrades. The iPhone in pictures below is the same iPhone in my previous post More iPhone 4 photos – UGLY.
- higher res screen on-board
- a front-facing camera
- a higher resolution camera with flash
- takes MicroSIM cards
If this is the next iPhone, I think Apple has lost its touch with making beautiful products.
Engadget has posted some new photos of an iPhone. This iPhone is completely different than any iPhone I have every seen. If this is the new iPhone, it is UGLY. It is not Apple like, this phone looks like every other smartphone on the market today. Here are the pictures, you decide for your self. I like the photos of the case from my previous post.
