Dutch animator Bastiaan de Jong, Founder of 3D-desk in Amsterdam, thinks he knows what the next iPhone will look like, and he has the HD renderings to prove demonstrate it. According to de Jong, whose company, "provides state-of-the-art interactive 3D animations of the latest mobile phones to telecom retailers," the iPhone 5 will indeed be much thinner, have a smaller dock connector, have more rounded edges than its predecessor and, surprisingly at this point, the "same screen size to keep iOS developer-friendly."
When it seems that every other prognosticator is working out the math for the extra set of icons on the home screen, de Jong is proposing a more conservative move by Apple. As is clear from watching the video, if this turns out to be the case, many users will still rush out to buy it, but will likely feel a bit let down.
I have requested clarification from de Jong about his prediction and am hoping that he might render up a taller version as well—just to be safe!
