Recent rumors have the next generation iPhone taller and thinner than the current device. Check out these mockups of the device commissioned by MacRumors and created by Ciccarese Design.

Increasing the diagonal measurement of the iPhone display from 3.5 inches to 4 inches while maintaining the same width as the current display adds approximately 11 mm (0.45 inch) to the height of the display. With iLounge's report indicating that the new iPhone's body will measure in at approximately 125 mm, which is 10 mm taller than the iPhone 4S, the spacing for the components above and below the display would remain roughly the same.

MacRumors also received an interactive 3D model of this mockup, accessible via WebGL-enabled browsers. (On OS X, Safari users can turn on WebGL by first navigating to Preferences -> Advanced -> Show Develop menu in menu bar and then choosing the "Enable WebGL" option from the Develop menu that appears.)

Check out the images below and let us know what you think of this taller design.
