And here’s yet another iPhone 5 design, this one based on the long time rumored edge to edge display. This time the screen feels as if it’s actually a piece of glass fit between two metal parts, because of the lack of side bezel. Also, looking at the phone from its profile reveals a sort of a mini display, as shown here. The concept was created by
Sira Design.

This iPhone 5 concept features a dual core Apple A6 processor, a 9 megapixel iSight camera and iOS 6. iCloud is also in the mix and New Siri as well. The screen diagonal is 4 inches and we’ve got a bunch of new icons to work with. What’s interesting is that in the screen diagonal area it says “4.0 + 0.5″. Is that 0.5 actually the side screen I was talking about or is this a 4.5 inch iPhone? Anyway I love this design and it’s so simple and lacks any unnecessary complications.
Hopefully with so much glass used on it, there’s still room for a decent battery. I remind you that the iPhone 5 is rumored to launch this fall and we could see its OS, iOS 6.0 being previewed next month at WWDC 2012. Excited about that? On the Sira Design page it actually says that I was right and the sides of the device are actually smaller screens, so the device is even cooler!

We’ve seen our share of
iPhone 5 concepts, with some recent models being really stunning, but here’s a fresh one, created by [FUSE]Chicken. This iPhone 5 vision involves an elongated Home button and a rectangular design, plus a 4 inch display, a widescreen one actually.
![iPhone5_concept_fusechicken_1 iPhone 5 Design Created by [FUSE]Chicken Has Quad Speakers](http://www.concept-phones.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/iPhone5_concept_fusechicken_1.jpg)
This iPhone 5 measures 7mm in thickness and has a 10 megapixel iSight camera at the back, plus a 5MP one at the front. The interesting aspect here is the inclusion of quad speakers for stereo in landscape and portrait. The headphone jack was also placed in a central position. I like the metallic edges of this model, but I’m not such a big fan of the volume buttons, that look like those on a toy phone, to be honest. The way the metal area around the device is slightly sloped makes it look like a precious item, a very nice feat.
On a side note, the metallic wire thing that props up the phone in some pictures is also very interesting and elegant. An iPhone like this would be a luxury item, that’s for sure, but will it appeal to real Apple fans? What do you say?

ADR Studio never ceases to amaze us with incredible Apple concepts and now Antonio De Rosa has done it again. Meet the iPhone Plus design, a branding that Apple might actually apply to the iPhone 5. They already did that with the Macintosh Plus, so why not here as well?

The iPhone Plus uses a Liquidmetal body (thermoformed on a single plane, without junctions) and the screen has a double alkali-aluminosilicate sheet glass. We’re dealing here with a device that has a 4.3 inch Retina Display, the Apple A6 quad core processor, a 10 megapixel rear camera with f/2.4, 1080p video capture at 30 fps and a 2 megapixel front camera. There’s even a top pico projector, used to beam photos and videos to surfaces. As you can see, we have here an edge to edge display and there’s also a slim dock connector in here.
The Home button is fully capacitive and the handset also comes with a rear motion sensor. I wonder how the battery will behave, considering we have here a projector, a big display with big resolution and a potent camera. It also looks stunning and I’m sure it has LTE on board as well. I guess it should be around 7 or 8 mm in thickness, if you ask me.

Jsus is the same designer that showed us the
Xperia Play 2 concept and some other very interesting designs. Now he’s back with an iPhone concept, that promises a revolution and uses a slightly curved back. Notice the big departure from the small rounded volume buttons on the iPhone 4S to the unified volume button here.

The physical Home button is still here and I can’t say that this iPhone 5 design is shocking or game changing. What’s really a nice touch and interesting detail is the fact that the Apple logo here resembles the one for the WWDC 2012 invitation, hinting at a possible launch of the new iPhone there. From what I’ve heard at WWDC 2012 we will be seeing iOS 6.0 and some new MacBooks, but no new iPhone. Anyway, this new iPhone is certainly something that Apple would do, since it doesn’t stray from past design lines and it’s still pretty classy.
The only problem I have here is that the device seems a bit too thick, since it has a 3 layer design: the screen panel area, the metallic frame and the back cover, that seem to create a bulkier than usual iPhone. Anything special you’d like to change about it?
[Thanks Jsus]

You may remember that some days ago we’ve shown you a
liquidmetal quad core iPhone concept created by Antoine Brieux, well in fact only its metal frame. Now, the concept is back in finished form. Meet the iPhone 5 Liquidmetal unit, with a quad core Apple A6 chip and much more goodies detailed after the break.

The device uses a 4.5 inch widescreen display, a 10 megapixel camera and a virtual Home Button. There’s also an embedded SIM card and obviously the Liquidmetal case, that measures only 7.9 mm in thickness. When turned around in landscape mode, the phone’s virtual Home button is gone to make more room for video watching/gaming. I have to say that the format of this iPhone concept is very appealing, especially with the device having metallic edges and a shiny back that’s probably protected by either ceramics or liquidmetal as well.
This glossy phone is certainly the kind of evolution that Apple would offer us this fall, when the real iPhone 5 comes out. Not sure if the 8MP camera of the iPhone 4S needs any revamp, since it’s great just the way it is. This supposed iOS 6 unit would certainly be more sturdy than its predecessors, that’s for sure. What do you say? Do you want a metallic iPhone or some other material?

It’s been a while since the last iPhone concept and here’s a fresh one by Hasan Kaymak. Meet the iPhone 5S, that features a quad core 1.5 GHz processor and a Full HD Retina Display. I guess that we’re at least one year away from 1080p phones, but if there’s anyone to debut that technology, then that’s Apple.

The iPhone 5S features a 2100 mAh battery, supports a wireless charging, Bluetooth 4.0 and iOS 6.0 as the software of choice. The device’s display diagonal is 4.5 inches and other features included are NFC, 4G LTE+ connectivity and Gorilla Glass 2 technology. The design is not something unexpected, to tell the truth: a slab of metal shaped in a rectangular form and looking a bit like a HTC meets an Xperia to me. There’s also a 12.1 megapixel iSight camera at the back, that I suppose will rule the cameraphone segment for years.
A quad core 1080p phone may happen towards the end of the year and it may come from Samsung, maybe HTC or maybe even Apple. I’m pretty sure they’ll move to quad core processing, but to 1080p not quite… Also, iPhone 5S makes me think about 2013 rather than 2012.

Today we’ve got two interesting iPhone concepts, that rely on the idea of a flexible display with seamless design. The two newcomers are iPhone Ace, the slider type smartphone below and the iPhone Jocker, that folds within the outer flexible screen. The designs belong to
redskyline7.

Both models feature realistic specs and they used AMOLED flexible displays made of Graphene and offering good thermal conductivity. There’s also a solar panel on board, somehow attached to the display and powering the handset, for an extra of 30% electricity savings. The basic good thing about these designs is the lack of seam between the two areas of the screen, exactly where it folds. Having no specs published here, my mind wanders to an iPad Mini rather than an iPhone or better yet, a 5 inch Note-like iDevice.
The main case body of the folding device is made of aluminum and also works as a cooling fan. The display here looks very crisp and the idea is pretty interesting and original, but as usual with flexible displays, there’s the issue of fragility. I guess that there’s Samsung technology in the mix, since they’re at the top of the Super AMOLED display game, especially with the flexible technology in the mix. Will Apple ever get this approach?

With the recent rumors concerning a possible use of LiquidMetal for the next iPhone, designer Antoine Brieux decided to create a concept based on that idea. Thus, he came up with the iPhone 5 LiquidMetal device, that he’ll show us later on. For now we only have this teaser, of the beautiful frame that the iPhone 5 will be based on.

As far as I know Liquidmetal is an alloy used by Apple to make those tiny sharp keys that allow you to pull out the SIM tray on the iPhones. The advantages of this material are high tensile strength, great corrosion resistance and anti wearing ability. In spite of the name, this is by no means a liquid metal… It’s also a pretty new material, being introduced for commercial use in 2003 and being used on golf clubs, watches and cellphone covers. The main advantage is the high strength to weight ratio, so maybe the next iPhone will finally be able not to crack and die when it’s dropped on the floor.
Antoine’s iPhone 5 frame concept looks fantastic and I really can’t wait to see the whole thing. I imagine it’s a shiny piece of work and there’s plenty or room for a big camera sensor in there, so maybe the cam has been updated too. We’ll see…

Everyone’s talking about that rumored 7.85 inch iPad, the iPad Mini that Apple supposedly developed to keep the rivals like Amazon Kindle Fire at bay. Now, we have a concept to go with that idea, the one designed by
Federico Ciccarese. He has lot of a very nice Apple designs, that you can see by clicking on his name.

As far as the iPad Mini render goes, we’re dealing with a 7.85 inch tablet with a form factor that’s exactly the same as the one of the iPad. You can see a size comparison in the pictures here and even a comparison with the iPhone. I’d say it’s about one third smaller than the iPad and about 3 times bigger than the iPhone 4S, but that’s only my estimate, so don’t take it for granted. Apple would do everyone a huge favour if they used the older display of the iPad on this device and implement the new iPad 3 camera if they can.
Also, the battery should still provide 10 hours of use. I recommend to use the older iPad display, because it’s very hard to achieve a Retina Display level on 7.85 inches, it drains the battery and makes the price higher. Imagine a $300 or so 7.85 inch iPad. That would kill basically all tablets under 10 inches that are available right now… What do you think?

We’ve published an
iPhone Pro concept before, but this new Pro model has nothing to do with the previous one, since it’s an even more evolved idea. The creation of Jinyoung Choi, the iPhone Pro has as main appealing feature the mount at the back supporting a variety of accessories, including DSLR lenses.

The handset comes with a 4.5 inch 1280 x 800 pixel display, a 1.2 megapixel 3D camera and a body that measures 9.6mm in thickness. The iPhone Pro uses a a wide LCD with 2 side buttons and the 3D camera cam hook up to a DSLR lens for the best of result. Projector capability and a portable speaker, plusa removable hard disk are all features compatible with this model. For all that DSLR processing I guess that a quad core Apple A6 processor is required and also a very sturdy body, to keep that photo taking accessory in place.
The projector accessory with speaker included is very cool looking and it’s brilliantly attached to that mount at the back. You could connect anything to that special port, that I consider to be a great idea. Kudos to the designer of this iPhone concept and I sure hope that Apple will take a cue from his ideas. Rumors say that we might actually see a 4.5 inch display on the iPhone 5, so fingers crossed.
