Dodgyknees Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Looks like I will get that then. I'll have that Nexus 5 and the Iphone 6... that sorts out all of my needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingram85 Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Looks like my white moto g from the front and a HTC one from the back. Such original designing from Apple I see... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blandy Posted August 7, 2014 Moderator Share Posted August 7, 2014 Looks like my white moto g from the front and a HTC one from the back. Such original designing from Apple I see... When was the moto g first made? I rather thought it was long after the white iPhone, and copied that design? and ditto for the HTC one - didn't that rather mimic the iPhone 5 back design? So surely the post should read the iPhone 6 looks like other phones that mimic earlier iPhones? Whatever, I think it's hard to argue that the apple designs have long been mimicked by all kinds of other manufacturers. Whatever you think of Apple as a Co. it's surely hard to argue that they haven't massively influenced design and manufacturing techniques for phones and computers and tablets.

limpid Posted August 7, 2014 Administrator Share Posted August 7, 2014 Agreed blandy but didn't Apple just copy the basic style (and name) from Star Trek PADDs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blandy Posted August 7, 2014 Moderator Share Posted August 7, 2014 Probably. iPhaser to stun. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingram85 Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Back of the HTC one looks nothing like an iPhone at all I was just expecting something different. I guess apple are playing other manufacturers at their own game. Have we reached smartphone saturation point now? Its all just feature creeping and gimmicks now? Are wearables the next explosion or something we haven't seen yet? As for the iPhone, I still think the new 4.7-5.5 screens are too big. They just needed to make something bigger than 4". 4.5 at most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted August 7, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted August 7, 2014 The bezel on that new iPhone makes it look a bit shit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blandy Posted August 7, 2014 Moderator Share Posted August 7, 2014 Saturation point is right, I think. That do everything and more. Wearables not for me. Can't see the point, and people have given up watches, mostly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
limpid Posted August 7, 2014 Administrator Share Posted August 7, 2014 Please can we keep this talk of wearables out of this thread please. At least until Apple invent them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xela Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 That video is not the next iPhone though is it? Isn't it just somebody's idea of what it may look like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted August 8, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted August 8, 2014 That video is not the next iPhone though is it? Isn't it just somebody's idea of what it may look like? It's allegedly the model given to case designers etc so that they can get dimensions right. And given that the guy in the video slots it into one of those cases and it fits perfectly it would seem it may well be the real deal. But yes, in terms of the finish etc it could well change. but for shape, button location, screen size etc, it would appear to be bang on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
