Apple is hiding an embarrassing iPhone 6 camera bulge

• yourad_io 12y ago
  Ugh.. am I the only one that can't see it?
  • yourad_io 12y ago
    I think I see it. TheVerge and I have vastly different definitions of "bulge".

  I don't think the "camera bulge" is really a cause for panic. From the picture they showed on their website of the camera, it looks like it barely sticks out.

    Some of their pictures/renders are slightly misleading. The cameras protrusion probably isn't that much of a worry.

    You're right, probably not a cause for "panic," but would the phone rock when placed on a flat surface?

  Even with a "bulge", it's thinner than the iPhone 5s. But I don't think thickness was the problem. I'm sure that, given the choice of a thinner 4.7" phone and an even thicker 4.0" phone with improved battery life, quite a few people would choose the improved battery life. I'm surrounded by people who complain about running out of battery. I've never once heard anyone say anything like "this phone is too thick, if only it were 0.7 mm thinner!". I do agree that many people wanted a larger screen. And having a 4.7" phone that kept thickness at 7.6 mm would have probably made the new phone too heavy. Oh well, life is full of compromises.

  With a case (that I assume most people will have to protect their precious device), this shouldn't be a big factor at all.

    I've ordered myself a leather case, so it shouldn't make a difference inside it.
