I'm eligible for a new phone. My pops is gonna pick it up later for me.

Wow. I always thought the iPhones were decent looking devices, but I'm not sure how I feel about it not having any edges around the sides of the screen. It looks....well. Funky.

Edit: Turn it on it's side and it looks like a PSP that has a screen that has no top or bottom edges.

That's not the phone they decided to use. It's just what I was hoping for.

How?

Yes, it is the reason I'm getting the Galaxy S III. Not making it wider means that videos will still be too small to watch.

 

[Tabascocat]

Whatever the new model looks like, it has to be better than my iPhone 4. It is way too small, it is hard to text on, not to mention my 40yr old eyes have trouble with it sometimes.

 

[Cowboys&LakersFan]

Doesn't come out until Sept 21.

 

[CATCH17]

It basically is a little taller, better processor, and better camera. Thats about it.
