Check Out These Renderings Of An 'iPhone Air'
One of Apple's top priorities with the iPhone is ensuring that it can be used one-handed. That's why the iPhone 5 screen was made longer but not wider.
While it would be the same size as the iPhone 5S, the iPhone Air's screen would increase in size to 4.9 inches.
By removing as much of the bezel as possible, the iPhone Air would offer the advantages of a big-screen phone with few of the drawbacks.
The phone would be 4.5 mm thick — 40% thinner than the iPhone 5S.
Rather than building Touch ID into the traditional home button, the iPhone Air would have it integrated into the bottom bezel.
You can see the Touch ID placement a bit better at this angle.
The concept also gets rid of the 'clicky' volume and silent buttons in favor of ones based on touch. This is the one change we think the concept could do without.
Here's a video of their renderings — it makes their iPhone Air concept look really great.
