More pictures of the rumored white iPhone

Much like Captain Ahab, Taiwanese Apple fan site tw.apple.pro is in pursuit of something elusive and white. They've posted pictures of what they claim to be the 4G iPhone with white casing on the back and front. Last week, the same site posted side-by-side photos of black and white faceplates supposedly meant for the new iPhone.

I know it's a matter of aesthetics, but I prefer the iPhone with the black faceplace (speaking as a guy with a white 3GS). The photo looks legit, so we're not doubting it, though the home button looks seriously recessed. Perhaps there's a case or layer of plastic on top of it, or maybe a shadow is playing tricks.

In any case, it looks like there will be an all-white iPhone 4G. So there you go.

Update: As of this writing, tw.apple.pro is down. We'll let you know if it returns.

Android doesn't rock. It's oké.

The white one will be the "cheap" $99 one, just like their MacBook line.

Almost looks Mother of Pearl white instead of stark white.

And here is the proof that its fake (front camera holes are different in both):

Isn't it just because the black one you can't see the hole well?



Dave: The pictures were taken in Hong Kong BTW, not Taiwan.

Come on. Where is every ines's sharp eye this is a caber faceplate. Just look at the chrome ring around it.

I guess the grass is always greener, because as an owner of a black 3GS I wish I had a white one. I'm getting white next time.

The button on the white iPhone looks recessed because the front plate is not seated all the way down on the aluminum frame. They must have slapped it on top quickly. Anyway, I still like the iPhone in black.

It's not so much that it's recessed - I think the white frontplate is actually not flush - it's been half taken off/put on
