New photos showing the rumored iPhone 6 design compared to the iPod touch 5G have been posted by macitynet.it.

Here's a Google Translation of their observations:

The shell of the mockup, aluminum, is very similar to that of the iPod touch even if the rounding greater makes it more comfortable while being held. Buttons for adjusting the volume are the same shape but slightly larger and at the same height if the base is aligned with that of the mock-up of the iPod touch. This highlights Apple's interest in allowing its users to continue to use the iPhone with one hand, facilitating the access to all the buttons while handling the device.

The drilling of the speaker is comparable to that found on the iPod, even though there seems to be a hole in most (maybe a speaker bigger?) however the mockup is not free from defects as the jack, while being in the same position, has an inner ring that does not allow the connection of any headset with 3.5mm jack. The thickness of the iPod touch is slightly lower than that of the iPhone 6, but we must take into account the fact that the future Apple smartphone could incorporate a much larger display in parallel with a more powerful battery to ensure at least the same performance as its predecessor . To get a better idea of how wide the 4.7-inch display built into the likely future iPhone , we can say that the width will match with virtually the entire iPod touch.


Earlier today, the Economic Daily News reported that Apple is planning to unveil its 4.7-inch iPhone 6 in August, one month earlier than many expected. The 5.5-inch version is said to follow one month later.
