iPhone 6 mock-up compared side-by-side with Galaxy S5

We’ve seen previous rumors regarding the specs and physical aspects of the upcoming flagship from Apple. There’s even a concept art of what it could look like, but the people from Macitynet compared the latest iPhone 6 physical mock-up with a Samsung Galaxy S5. See how the alleged iPhone 6 is similar (or different) from the Galaxy S5 in terms of physique.

The mock-up is just a little smaller than the 5.1-inch Galaxy S5. It’s not surprising since the iPhone 6 shown here is the 4.7-inch variant and not the bigger 5.5-inch model as rumors previously suggested. Comparing the face with Apple’s previous iPhones, it seems to us that the new flagship is just a stretched iPhone 5S with its same placement of front camera, earpiece, and fingerprint scanner in the middle.

On the side, you’ll notice that both devices are now similar-looking with the iPhone’s power/lock button moved to the right from its original position on top. Also, it is a bit thinner than the Galaxy S5. It is currently at 8.1mm thick so we can estimate the new iPhone to be around the 7mm mark.

There’s also a video below with this same dummy model compared against existing iPhones. So if you’ve held these devices in your hand, you’ll get a good idea as to how the upcoming iPhone would sit on your palm.

Based on this comparison of two flagships, would you prefer the upcoming iPhone’s body over the existing Galaxy S5? You can share those thoughts below.

This is possibly how the new iPhone 6 would look

We’ve seen some concept images of the upcoming iPhone 6 in the past, but according to reports this new depiction is probably the most accurate concept photo so far as it is based on the latest updates regarding the new flagship smartphone from Apple.

Martin Hajek, a famous Dutch designer and concept artist, is responsible for this tweaked rendering of the iPhone 6. Hajek has already made his version of the next iPhone in the past but with the latest development on said smartphone, revisions were made and everything about the iPhone 6’s form factor that’s known to the public are now all incorporated to this latest mockup.

Based on the image, the iPhone 6 carries a bigger display as expected, has new curved edges compared to the current flagship with all its corners, has the same thin profile, and does away with the glossy borders on top and the bottom of the device. One major physical change, though, is its new Sleep/Wake button which now moved to the right side of the smartphone from the top. This is according to a research that should help operate the phone with one hand since the iPhone 6 is reported to have larger display.

If this is close or exactly how the next iPhone would look like, would you like it? Personally I find it to be a refreshing look for an iPhone, but it kind of seems like one of those midrange Android phones with their rounded form factor – which was later on transformed into an Apple device.

iPhone 6 may have interchangeable lens

In addition to our previous report regarding Apple’s decision to make the upcoming iPhone’s screen bigger, it seems that company is also planning to include a Bayonet mount on their next project which, presumably, will allow users to slot in different lenses to their iPhone.

This news came after Apple was officially granted patent for a Bayonet Attachment Mechanism by the USPTO (United States Patent and Trademark Office) on Tuesday.

According to the documents provided by Apple, the company has looked into other options that will allow an ‘accessory’ to be mounted on the handset. However, the Bayonet mount has proved to be the more fitting choice because they won’t have to alter the design of the handset too much and it’s, by far, the more secure way to fasten a lens to the device compared to other methods like magnetic coupling.

However, in order to incorporate the Bayonet attachment mechanism to the iPhone 6, Apple had to make a few minor adjustments to the iPhone’s design which may involve raising the lens portion a few millimeters above the body. But this doesn’t seem that far-fetched as suggested by the leaked images that show a prototype with protruding lens.

It’s still uncertain whether or not Apple will deploy Bayonet-style mount on their upcoming device/s. But if there’s any truth to these rumors, then it will certainly be a great addition to their iPhone’s feature set and reaffirm its place as one of the best shooters in the mobile category.
