According to pre-WWDC scuttlebutt, iOS 6 won’t be a huge departure from what we’ve got now, at least when it comes to stand out system features. What we will see, however, is a total revision of Apple’s core apps, most noticeable in Apple’s totally overhauled, Google-free Maps app, along with a sexy new silver UI.
What will it all look like in action, though, on the new, possibly elongated iPhone 5, when it ships in September or October? Over on the Apple Core forums, user gizmosachin created some nice mockups of what all the pieces will look like when glued together.
Looks gorgeous. What do you think?

Looks great! hope its like this!
so sexy
It looks… taller. Not sure what anyone else was expecting it to look like.
The beauty of the iPhone 4 was still there but also with a more confortable 4 inch display.
But for the black one, the stainless steel band must be silver colored as well as the new white one the iPhone’s 4 and 4S.
I do not think this is Sexy at all, the Iphone5 looks to much like Iphone4, a beauty to See, but a pain to have in your Hand…
I think the home screen and notification center screen should be mocked up. But change the title bar on the scene to the silver one. I think all of the screens on the iPhone should have silver title bars.
The iconic design of the iPhone 4 lives on!
I hope it comes in black, white and silver!
Why do they even make black iPhones anymore?
Also, I’m the biggest Apple fanboy of all time and I fucking HATE the direction they’re going with these. If we wanted a design from 3 years ago we’d buy the phone from 3 years ago. And changing the color of the software is desperate at best. Either they’re running out of ideas or they’re waiting until they can implant computer chips into our brains to be our phones. I hope it’s the computer chip thing because I’d hate to see Apple fall from grace so soon…
I think this spells the success of Android even more. I’m dissapointed, quite honestly. What the hell?
First we get an iPad that has the same design of the previous iPad with the same res front facing camera, same CPU.
Second, iOS 6 is looking like it might be a new color format and that’s it.
Third, now our iPhone is going to have the same design 3 years in a row? Oh and let’s not forget that the rumors point to the CPU being part of the A5 family too.
They didn’t do enough with the iPad release, but I bought it because of the Retina Display. I’m not cool with this design. Don’t get me wrong, the iPhone 4/4S look amazing, but if this phone looks like the iPhone 4S, that means the next iPhone will look like the 4S.
IOS 5 was great. NOWS THE TIME TO KEEP UP THE PRESSURE!!!!!! The iPad has the space for a new UI. It’s not fair to limit the iPad so much. The iPad should be getting widgets or something. A new color scheme shouldn’t require a point-O release: That’s more like a dot-X release.
All of this is not looking good for me.
All you people complaining about the “same” look can take heart in the fact that the back of the thing (the part not seen here and the part that you show off to others on the bus), is quite different. So everyone will know that you got the new one, you don’t have to cry about that.
Sorry for mixing up with Tallest Skil’s comments..
Everybody needs to cool their jets. All of this is strictly guessing. We won’t know what the next iPhone will officially be like until Apple tells us. The so-called iPhone 5 parts and schematics that are floating around may not even be for the next iPhone. They could be from iPhone 4 prototypes for all we know. They could be intentionally leaked parts and images to throw everyone off. We just don’t know.
Mattew, I cannot being to tell you how many things you got wrong in your post.
First, the iPad had the same basic design because the design is damn near perfect, and the new iPad DOES NOT have the same processor at all.Granted it is in the same family but not the same.
Second, did you read the article? Color change AND complete redesign of all the core apps.
Third, most every single report says we are moving to a much larger screen so where are you getting that it will be the same design 3 years in a row?
The new iPad release was a solid release with a great device, the no one knows what the new iPhone looks like, so this is just a MOCK UP. And this statement, “Don’t get me wrong, the iPhone 4/4S look amazing, but if this phone
looks like the iPhone 4S, that means the next iPhone will look like the
4S,” made zero sense.
As for how you started your post, “I think this spells the success of Android even more.” I will just direct you to this article, posted today on Cult Of Mac.

I would love for the new iPhone to look exactly like that! wawawewa :)
I think we have some secret fandroid lovers on here, secretly wanting wackdroid to succeed over iOS.
Looks better than I thought. Surprisingly balanced. I worried it may look too tall and out of proportion.
They can count on me for a white one.
guys, there’s barely any basis for these predictions. How would the author know the format is going to be “silver”? It’s just how the dude did the mockup.
Two of my friends just got their iphone’s replaced. One because the iphone was doing things on it’s own and the other because the home button didn’t work. I wasn’t because they didn’t take care of their iphone’s either. Also, is calling people names a good way to get your point across? Apple hasn’t really innovated anything in the past year and adding a bigger screen would only put the iphone’s screen on the same level as android screens that have been out for awhile now
I think we should just wait until apple announces this thing before we are sure what it will look like.

I don’t get what the big deal is about having a similar design. The MacBooks get update all the time with little to no exterior differences. If anything this is good so one doesn’t feel obligated to buy a new phone every two years.
iphone 5? no…
WWDC is going to be quite interesting this year for sure. A render of the back would be nice as well seeing as it’s metal now; at least in the leaked parts it is.
iOS 4 = iPhone 4
iOS 5 = iPhone 4s
iOS 6 = iPhone 5? No…iPhone 6 or like the iPad, The New iPhone. Seriously people, why are you dubbing this the iPhone 5? Plus, you didn’t show anything about iOS 6…just the nytimes website.
Yikes1 is right, it is not out yet, so i do not need to complain, but i have been reading that Mr. T Cook is reading some of the Websites to see what people think.
Its essential just a elongated iPhone 4/4S. The design of the iPhone 4 was and is still excellent, however it is getting a bit old by now and does need somewhat of a significant change.
I actually think Apple could figure out some way to get tabbed browsing below the URL bar… Perhaps a tab bar that would only show one tab at a time. On the far right, there would be a “New Tab” button and on the far left, a “List All Tabs” button”. And if you don’t want all the tabs showing up every time you want to switch to another open page, you would simply swipe left or right on the tab bar.
I already have the iPhone 5…. the iPhone 4S. And it won’t look like that running iOS 6…
I love how people complain that this will be the same basic design for three years in a row…. So what? The i phone/iphone3/iphone3gs all were the same so why not the iphone4/4s/ iphone6?
This is absolutely fake… they forget something… iPhone camera won’t be on top of the speaker… They forget the Light Sensor. Failed! Another make up story…
Wow, it looks much like a Samsung Galaxy S3! Wondering if it will keep up with the S3 on hardware also …
apologizes. the child was supposed to be taking a nap.

Does ANYONE realize the iPhone 5 is not the FIFTH phone Apple has released. The 4 wasn’t the fourth either… 1.Original iPhone (original look), 2. iPhone 2 (new look), 3. iPhone 3g (new look), 4 iPhone 3gS, 5. iPhone 4 (new look), 6. iPhone 4S. Anyone noticing a TREND here? The next iPhone, if called the iPhone FIVE, will have a new look. Sidenote: iPad (original look), iPad 2 (new look), “All New iPad,’ (Same look as 2). Its not the iPad 3. They didn’t want to call it the iPad 2s for whatever reason. If you really believe the newest iPad isn’t an improvement, get a data plan and get off the Wifi only models. 4G LTE being available is a MAJOR change. The new numbers= new looks. Who knows, these mockups could be for “The All New iPhone” and the 5 is miles off. Apple keeps us guessing. “MOCKUP” is a word used to describe something that has been constructed based on RUMORS alone, not a leaked image of a device in Steve Jobs’ tomb lol. So please, stop complaining or going to rumor sights if rumors crush you. Just shut up and wait. Huge Apple fan, and sick of you Android people trying to kill the iPhone. You stick to your application “force closing,” miserable battery life (besides DROID RAZR MAXX), and apps being ported 6 months later (haha). Ex: Temple Run, Instagram, etc. That’s all I have to say.
