iResQ has posted some photos comparing the thickness of the iPhone 4S to the 'iPhone 5'.
The most interesting thing we see here is the fact that the iPhone 4 and 4S are thicker than the iPhone 5 by the thickness of the back glass. So here is an easy way to imagine the thickness of the iPhone 5: remove the glass backplate from your iPhone 4/4S and there you go! That's the approximate thickness of the iPhone 5.
The site also notes that the fully assembled unit has a good feel.
"Having the mostly assembled unit in our hands feels nice. It fits in the pocket just fine and I can see myself getting used to the longer screen rather quickly."

As one who has to manage several hundred iPhones and Androids... I'll take the SIII over the iPhone 5 everyday of the week and twice on Sundays. No competition. As a corporate device and in the mobile managemnet field, it isn't even close. Apple is a nightmare. Apple will not release vital API's for development. Want to make a GPS tracking location on Apple. Nope. Apple won't allow apps to auto start on restart. Know many employees who will choose to turn on their own tracking??? Google has a ways to grab the corporate brass ring the way RIM did, but they certainly are leaps and bounds ahead of Cupertino.

I dropped my iPhone 4s i sand now it sounds like trumpet is playing, i cant stand it
Well thanks to the speaker grill hopefully it will prevent from speakers getting damage
IF THAT IPHONE HAS THAT UGLY ASS GRILL FOR SPEAKER AND MIC I WILL NOT BUY THE IPHONE NO LIE IT LOOKS PLAIN UGLY HOPEFULLY THE GRILL WILL BE LIKE 4 AND 4S
To be honest I dont see any reason to upgrade and pay another 500.00 for the Same shit. Come on !!!! It is the same old design and nothing changed . Apple needs to start making bigger screen size phones to compete with the rest.
I don't see any real reason to go from my amazing 4S to the 5. I'm yet to get a good enough reason. A bigger screen is not enough. And a quad core CPU would only be useful if my current iPhone can't cope with the load, which it can... Reasons anyone?
