Too bad everyone here who posted “it’s a fake” couldn’t have waited a few months…Of course it’s real…and too bad it really is a cheaper grade backing (plastic vs. metal), although on the positive now it won’t scratch as much!

The iPhone 3G are selling 2x as fast as the original and lines are constantly forming outside of Apple stores and other carriers.
It’s a great time to personalize your iPhone by choosing any accessories that suit your personality and lifestyle. Apple Stores and most other consumer electronics specialty shops carry these cases. Do a careful search at an online auction site, such as eBay, and you may find them there.
Um… recommend these iPhone 3G Accessories store, maybe you will also like it

Anyway, it is a cool design. Metal back, wow
I suppose it could fit these cases http://www.sourcingmap.com/iphone-cases-c-983_1757.html

This company, colorware, makes them in just about every color. I think this is where people are getting the plastic case pics from

I think it´s real, and I wonder why no one notices the different curve on this one compared to the old iPhone.

I think that apple is going to put some of the shapes fraom the MacBookAir in to all their new portable products. So I predict we will se some nice new books and phones this summer.

I agree, And can anyone out there figure out the size of this thing based on the dimensions in relation to the MacBook Pro it is resting on? From my estimations, it seems much smaller than the current model.

Clicking more reveals red, green, white, and blue versions as well.

They’re normal iPhones that have been painted by the company Colorware.

I don’t think it’s plastic at all… looks like powder-coated metal. And it’s definitely tapered like the Air.

This is not the 3G iPhone.
This is the $199 iPhone.

Please notice
…a completely different case shape.
…Recessed headphone port on lower half of case.
…Tapered edges like the Macbook Air.

with ebay and rogers and a $65 1Gb plan there is no reason not to have one!
just pick the right vendor, mine took 5 weeks to arrive.

I was looking at this from my Hiptop and I know it doesn’t handle .pngs well and I saw this grainy stuff on the top and bottom:

Photoshop?

i would like this to be the real deal but its not likely. the light up logo would be cool but probably wont happen. Also apple likes the products to have the same common them ie. pro’s are silver, iPods have a shiny smooth back, macbook and imac in white. So since the ipod touch uses the same case as the iphone its safe to say that that probably isn’t the real thing. but people make a good point that its way to hard to do all of that photoshopping i really dont think it could be done.

by the way i hope that they will add an mms to the iphone because i hate getting pic form friends and having to remember the username and password jest to see them.

Ugly. That thing will get scratched up as you take it out of the package! I like the idea of it being black but for the love of Bill Gates not glossy! Will it come with a wipe?

Im surprised no one said this but wouldnt you guess if there switching to plastic then maybe there thinking about a removeable battery. Besides 3g, wasn’t no extra battery a big complaint.

Ugly. I like the metal back. Makes the phone feel sturdy. Glossy black will scratch too easily.

Wow, that is a major improvement over the p.o.s that it is now. This one is more bearable to look at…and WHAT DO YA KNOW, 3G!!! It’s not just something used in real phones anymore. If the front can keep up the appearance of the back then it might finally be worth looking at seriously buying.

Looks tight, but as dude above said…who cares until it hits the store. Either u getting one or u ain’t. Besides, forget metal black is always sexy.

Um. It looks nice but I just cant see Apple going from metal to plastic. Are you sure this isnt the “My First iPhone”?

By: Nino

If it was real I think the lawyers at Apple might have wanted this taken down since Apple seems very tight when it comes to things being leaked.

Looks a lot like the new incase hard case

By: Sharpe

I think it’s a fake. The case is so glossy that it has reflections, but those reflections stop at the camera lens. Also, the logo is white, but the photoshopper added the gray on the leaf. The gray part doesn’t match the rest of the reflection.

this is colorware work not photoshop

I doubt apple would make a high end product like the iphone out of plastic. Thats what I love about my iphone is its sturdy feel. Maybe they would do this on an iPhone nano. Although that is to big to be a nano.

Might be legit, who really cares until it’s in stores anyway? The contours on the back make this one look rounder and narrower than the original iPhone. Also, notice that there’s no “seam” on the back (original iPhones with colorware still have the seam at the bottom separating antenna from casing?)

Fake or not, it still sucks because I don’t see a user-replaceable battery…

looks fake. i think there is a bump at the bottom where on the origional phones was the black cover.
