In accordance with the 3 year old Apple trend of releasing a sensational iPhone during the mid of the calender year, we can expect the next Apple iPhone to step into limelight pretty soon. The gadget, which has already popped up in rumour-zone, is supposed to be called Apple iPhone 4G; indicating that it would be compatible with the next generation communication technology.

A recent rumour has mentioned that the new Apple iPhone 2010 will be available in a variety of colours, like blue, green and pink, apart from the regular white and black.

Gizmodo had earlier stumbled upon a lost prototype of the iPhone 4G and had thoroughly examined it, in and out. This is what was found:-

Form Factor - The new device seems to have broken the norm of the usual iPhone structure. It does have a rectangular from factor, with curved edges, like the older models. However, what's different is its flat back. The 3G and 3GS models had tapered ends on the back.

Screen - The screen is said to be slightly smaller in size than the iPhone 3GS, but with better resolution.

Camera - The camera might be a higher resolution one. It is as well said to have a larger lens and a flash. Plus a second video-call camera is also said to be present on the front side.

Micro-SIM - Like the iPad, the Apple iPhone 4G is supposed to offer a micro-SIM card slot.

Battery - A larger battery will reportedly be powering up the new gadget. Other components within are said to be miniaturised and more compactly packed, to make space for the large battery. Moreover, Gizmodo also mentions that the form factor itself has been designed without tapers on the back, as there was no space for any.

Others - This new iPhone is said to have a second noise cancellation microphone at the top just like the Google Nexus One.

Engadget also made an exciting discovery last month, when one of their editors happened to spot the iPhone 4G sitting in the same picture of the Apple lab, in a corner along with the Apple iPad.

All evidences make it seem like the Apple iPhone 4G will take the world by storm. We'll let you know as we stumble upon something more.
