New White iPhone May Be ALL White

Another leak from the far East has given a glimpse of what the next-generation iPhone may look like: this time, it's a purported front faceplate for the white model that suggests that the entire device may be white. Take this news with about a pound of salt, as the parts came from TaoBao, the "Chinese eBay," and the ultimate source of the parts is unknown. Still. the news was intriguing enough for the Italian site iSpazio to create the artist's rendition of an all-white iPhone pictured above.

Engadget's Richard Lai turned up the parts and contacted the seller. The story seemed a little shady, as they didn't know what a silver protrusion at the top was supposed to be for, and gave a definite "maybe" to an order of 15 to 20 pieces. Lai's dubious inquiries were met with the assertion that "there's always a back door to [iPhone manufacturer] Foxconn as long as you wave cash at someone."

True or not, the white case depicted in the mockups really shows off the clean lines of the new model, and strongly suggests a kinship to the iMac. It's far from accidental, of course: both the iMac and the iPhone were designed by Jonathan Ive, who also designed the iPod and the MacBook.

[StormRoBoT]

[zozodouce]

[TheOrioles33]

I would like the same color as the iPad. Whatever color that is.

Ooohhh! And the picture shows 64GB!

[chancre_scolex]

How about iPhones available in all the iPod nano colors?

[wstcoast]

Sweet!!...fingers crossed

[cypherpunk]

64GB? About time, since this is just as much a media player as a phone.

Might actually consider buying it now...although I get the feeling I'll probably regret it once the 128GB iPod Touch is released...

[The Maestro]

That's the reason I never got the white 3G/3GS it was black/white I might consider this

[eyepoper]

I really dont like the Design..and hope that this is still Prototype... that thing is UGLY>..but I will buy it any way because I love iPhone.... that thing is like a BLOCK I dont know what...just like a missing peace from some device...and we still have too much whit peaces on top and where the home button is... that should be smaller ...meaning the phone could be a lil in height.

[Truckinlow]

if this is true it will fit my new theme great!

[toyvan]

makes me fall in love all over again....

[MetallicaFan1991]

I hope the final design is alot nicer and them horrible seams on the sides have gone.

[Raptors]

[elementvdz]

Looks very clean. Hopefully this is what is coming our way. It will be nice to see a design change.
