Recent rumors have the next generation iPhone taller and thinner than the current device. Check out these mockups of the device commissioned by MacRumors and created by Ciccarese Design.

Increasing the diagonal measurement of the iPhone display from 3.5 inches to 4 inches while maintaining the same width as the current display adds approximately 11 mm (0.45 inch) to the height of the display. With iLounge's report indicating that the new iPhone's body will measure in at approximately 125 mm, which is 10 mm taller than the iPhone 4S, the spacing for the components above and below the display would remain roughly the same.

MacRumors also received an interactive 3D model of this mockup, accessible via WebGL-enabled browsers. (On OS X, Safari users can turn on WebGL by first navigating to Preferences -> Advanced -> Show Develop menu in menu bar and then choosing the "Enable WebGL" option from the Develop menu that appears.)

Check out the images below and let us know what you think of this taller design.

Hmmm could you show me what a shorter, fatter phone might look like? Your taller, thinner really helped me visualize it. Not!

Are you guys not sick of the rumors yet? Nobody but Apple knows what the next iPhone will look like. These rumors are just to increase site traffic to these websites...

What's wrong with you all. The 4s is perfect. A mobile phone is supposed to be pocketable. If you want a larger screen ...buy an iPad. I personally don't want the phone to increase in size. Stretch the screen out to the edges by all means but don't make it any bigger.

Looks ugly

This would definitely be something I would not want to see the new iphone look like. They need to design something similar to the old 3gs, slightly and I mean only slightly larger with some sort of liquy metallic curved back plate.

It is not bad but I think the new iPhone design will be different

Lets be realistic here. This is design is way too similar to the 4/4S. If apple were to come out with something like this, I think we can all assume that most people would be highly disappointed. I know I would.
