iPhone 6 concept packs fingerprint scanning & 18MP camera
Designer works up ‘what-if’ render.
Created by Antonio De Rosa of ADR Studio, the concept design takes on board much of what leaks suggest will be on board the forthcoming Apple smartphone. That means there’s a larger screen – albeit at 4.3-inches one that’s much smaller than talk of an iPhablet suggests – and a beefier A7 quad-core processor.
De Rosa’s fantasy phone also substitutes the current iPhone’s eight-megapixel snapper for a lavish 18-megapixel camera, complete with double-flash LED and noise reduction.
But it’s perhaps the use of fingerprint scanning tech – also a long-time fixture of the iPhone rumour mill - and transformation of the area beneath the screen where his render stands out.
Opting to ditch a traditional physical home button, De Rosa has positioned a fingerprint scanner beneath the Apple logo under the display. Meanwhile, the entire panel has been radically reimagined as a touchpad, ostensibly to allow improved access to apps and games.
The designer’s work has come to light the week after Apple officially showcased the iOS 7 software that will power the seventh-generation iPhone, ahead of its mooted due date in September.
