Leaked Pictures Of The iPhone 4G Prototype?

Could it be possible that this is the new iPhone 4G? Well just last week, the Apple Event was held and before the presentation, there were leaked images of Apple’s new device ”iPad” and those images turned out to be true. Over at AppleInsider, they have heard from a source that the iPhone shown in the picture below is to be an unreleased iPhone 4G prototype.

People with an impeccable track record in matters such as these say the iPhone in below photo, published by gadget blog Engadget in the hours leading up to Apple’s iPad announcement last Wednesday, is a prototype of one of the handsets due to hit the market in roughly five months.

Cosmetically, the iPhone in the photo appears without its iconic aluminum bezel. Instead, the device is surrounded by a black plastic of aluminum material. Either that, or the handset is wrapped 80 percent of the way in a rubberized protective holder like the iPad prototype it rests on top of, though the quality of the image leaves this assertion to considerable debate.

The only other distinguishable difference between the existing iPhone and the one in the photo is what appears to be a whitish blotch immediately to the left of the earpiece grill. This could represent a circular transparency in the blackened portion of the face of the device that gives way to a camera lens, though it could also be nothing more than a reflection from some other source.

It is expected that Apple is to be releasing a fourth generation iPhone sometime in June which Steve Jobs said is a ”A+ Update”. How true is this rumour? I guess we will have to wait and see what’s to come in the next few months. Do you think this leaked iPhone 4G prototype picture is real deal?
