Gorgeous iPhone 5 Concept Looks Insanely Great




iPhone5の発売はまだ遠いが、発売を待てないイタリアデザイン会社のアーティストFederico Ciccareseが、これまで流れた噂をもとに模型を創作した。
CiccareseのイメージするiPhone5は少し丸みがあるフォルムで、ヘッドフォンジャックが横にあり、MacBookのようなアルミ製だ。
CissareseがAppleの未発表製品の模型を創作のはこれがはじめてではなく、第5世代のiPhone(結果iPhone 4Sが発表されることとなったが)、iScreenといったコンセプトなどに関しても噂からイメージを膨らませて創作を行っている。(要約)

The iPhone 5 might not be arriving any time soon, but that hasn’t stopped artists and design firms from creating their own mock-ups.
After analyzing the various iPhone 5 rumors, Italian designer Federico Ciccarese came up with these gorgeous renders.
Ciccarese’s vision of the iPhone 5 predicts a slightly curved back. The body of the phone, in fact, looks similar to Apple’s Magic Mouse. The display is flat and “retina” in nature and the phone tapers off at the top and bottom.
The headphone jack has moved to the side to accommodate the new design and the back looks to be blasted aluminum, similar to what is used on the MacBook Pro, MacBook Air and iMac.
This isn’t the first time Ciccarese has mocked up his own version of future Apple products. In addition to previously trying to design the fifth-generation iPhone (what would become the iPhone 4S), Ciccarese has also taken on concepts such as the iScreen, his vision of the rumored integrated television from Apple.
We love the way the mockup details the glowing Apple on the back of the phone. It’s the sort of design touch that we think Jony Ive and company could even appreciate.
What do you think of these mockups? What would you like to see in the iPhone 5? Let us know.
