iPhone 5 Wider and Thin

The closer to the time of its launch, the more rumors about the iPhone 5. One rumor circulating is strong enough is the design of the iPhone 5, which is said to be wider and thinner than the iPhone 4.

A number of online media reports, the shell (casing) for the iPhone 5 has a size larger and thinner than previous generations. One of the "leak" is the casing that has been mass produced and flooded the Chinese market. Casing is wider and thinner, and available in a variety of colors and materials.

Based on the design of the casing, MicGadgdet on Wednesday (31/08/2011), made ​​a prediction that the iPhone 5 will be as thin as iPod Touch and have a wider screen. Rear casing material will be made of aluminum like the iPad 2.

Meanwhile, MacRumors make predictions with a more detailed analysis. In accordance with MacRumors reports, Saturday, the iPhone 5 will sized 4.33 inches x 2.36 inches, slightly wider, but shorter than the iPhone 4 dimensions 4.5 inches x 2.31 ​​inches.

MacRumors also specified, the iPhone 4 has a screen measuring 3.5 inches (diagonal) with a width of 1.95 inches. The iPhone 5 with a width of 2.24-inch screen on the casing will have a diagonal screen size of at least 4 inches.

Problem thickness, MacRumors is still difficult to predict based on the leak case. The site predicts, the thickness of the iPhone 5 could not be more than 0.3 inch and thinned to 0.065 inch from top to bottom.

The results of the analysis is slightly different from MacRumors DIGICOM analysis, some time ago. DIGICOM guess, iPhone 5 width between 3.5 inches and 3.7 inches. Which is correct? The new answer is definitely after the iPhone was launched in October.
