Apple has yet to finalize the design of the next generation iPhone, according to a new report from iMore.

Currently, the new, smaller dock connector is being implemented, but no changes to screen size or aspect ratio have been decided on. And yes, it still has a Home button.


iMore suggests that if there is a change to the screen size it will be minimal. ie max 4-inch.
