Speaking to me, popular case maker Ghostekhas confirmed it not only knows the iPhone 11's final design it is so confident in its source that it has made cases, started taking pre-orders from customers and will ship them in August, one month before Apple's official launch.

This is one ugly phone. What happened to you, Apple?

edit: I mean without the case. The case makes it even worse.

More/better camera just isn't a selling point in phones anymore. The cameras are fine, for 95% of people's use case.

Phones need to figure something else out to seem vital again.

i mean its just straight up ugly

People thought that about the dual camera look too, and got used to it pretty quick

Not the most attractive design but my care about how the rear of a phone looks lasts maybe 45 seconds so shrug.

If the rumours about the 2020 iphone being a "ipad pro" style design are true, wonder if it will have the same camera array.

This generation of iphones will forever known as the "notch series". I am sure the next gen will get a small or zero notch.

Was hoping to get a new iPhone this fall. Really not a fan of this look. I'll wait to see the official announcement and pictures (without a case) before I make a final decision, but looks like I might try to hold on to my 8 for another year.

I am not sure what you are supposed to do with current smart phones but they are all so boring now and have been for a while.

These unofficial renders are going to be ugly.

Google released an image of the back of the Pixel 4 which has basically the same camera array and it looks nice. This won't be any different.

Yeah hate the square in the back. Otherwise it looks exactly the same.

I'm hoping the next version just increases depth of the phone to accommodate for a flat back with camera.

I'd love it if they made a cheaper version that had a very toned down camera, but the same internals as the 11. Single lens, no bump at all. I really don't need the camera on my phone to be that great.

Eh... I have a 7 plus... just waiting for them to design and release an iPhone I actually like before upgrading. At this point, my fear is that my 7 plus will become obsolete before that happens and I'll have to upgrade to something I don't want...

hey, the 2020 iPhone design linked in that article is really nice though. Oh well another year with my trusty 8, hopefully they get Touch ID back in there

The case is horrid. But how anyone can say the iphone itself is horrid from those pictures is beyond me...

Probably a case of people would just say it regardless of there being a picture or not.

"Ughh ugly". "But there's no picture" "Oh well I bet its ugly".
