As excited as a lot of people are about the forthcoming iPhone 6, one of the big sticking points has been the presence of ugly antenna breaks on the back of most of the models we’ve seen so far.
In mockups and alleged leaked production units, these antenna breaks resemble strips of tape, or grout between the line of tiles, and leave Apple’s next generation iPhone not as attractive as it could otherwise be.
Earlier this week, news site Nikkei claimed that these strips are placeholders only, and will be replaced in the final version by polished glass to make the iPhone 6 more aesthetically pleasing.
With that in mind, designers Thomas Moyano and Nicolas Aichino have created some up-to-date mockups of Apple’s next iPhone, featuring everything we think we currently know about the device, including the lack of antenna breaks.
In my opinion it makes a world of difference, and suggest that with its larger screen, rounded edges, and (now) lack of thick lines on the back of the phone housing, this could be Apple’s most stunning iPhone yet.
The iPhone 6 is set to arrive in September, with several sources suggesting September 19 as the most likely release date.
