Recent rumours have suggested that the next generation iPhone would likely be a smaller update possibly to be known as the iPhone 4S. BGR.com has now been told by “a reliable source” that the next iPhone will in fact feature a “radical new case design.” There are no details on what it would look like but earlier rumours suggested a tear-drop design.
BGR’s source also indicates that Apple may opt to announce the new iPhone at an event in early to mid-August with availability as early as late August.
