Gotta Be Mobile posts a pair of photos of what it calls an "engineering sample" of the next-generation iPhone. While it isn't entirely clear just what the sample represents, it seems to be solid chunk of aluminum machined into the form factor of the rumored device.

Assuming that the sample is genuine and related to the iPhone development and production process, it supports previous photos and rumors showing a large central section on the back plate that differs from the top and bottom portions of the rear casing.

Measurements on the sample are also in line with rumors that have pegged the next-generation iPhone at roughly the same width as the iPhone 4S (5.86 cm) and somewhat taller (slightly over 12 cm compared to 11.52 cm) in order to accommodate a larger display.

And they still somehow love it the next day when the terrible shock of either problem wears off.
Sorry Jony, Lumia 900 has cleaner design.
Even the biggest Apple fan has to admit that its a sexy design. A sexy unique design at that. People wanted innovation, and thats it right there.Image (http://blog.gadgethelpline.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/whitelumia900.jpg)
The iPad/iPhone design is growing very dull...very little in the way of design work going on there, its the same design with very minor tweaks. The iPhone 5 needs a big update IMO.
This is the next iPhone. What aren't you people getting?!
Yeah I don't know why people don't believe it. Every single iPhone has been leaked ahead of the release date.

I personally don't like the white border at all. Still think the iPhone 4/4S have the most beautiful designs out of all smartphones. But like some people here, not a fan of the two horizontal lines on the new one. Hopefully the actual phone won't look like this.Image (http://blog.gadgethelpline.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/whitelumia900.jpg)
