iPhone 6 concept

iPhone 6 concept

There have been lots of extremely cool Apple iPhone 6 concepts.
We like this one a lot.  Check out these 3d concepts by artist Peter Zigich.

Home Button

Home Button It has been there since the first iPhone. The physical Home Button is one of the best design features of the iPhone, but it takes up a lot of space at the front. How about moving Home button to the side?
 We could end up with bigger screen or a smaller phone.

Two Home Buttons, one on each side.

With Home button on the side there’s room to add another row of icons, while physical dimensions remain the same as iPhone 5.

Is one iPhone enough?

Apple has 4 iPods (Touch, Nano, Classic & Shuffle), and 2 iPads (iPad & iPad mini).
Why Not 3 different iPhones?

There is a significant demand for a larger screen iPhone.

Perfect for one handed use.

Our Take:

 Very original & different
Very good 3d modelling & renderings skills
Looks like Apple product
Bigger screen with same physical size
3 different sizes, (Regular, small & XL)
Cheaper iPhone very unApple – for now
Side Home button – not sure about that one
