Apple's Poster to Commemorate the Fifth AppStore Birthday



Looks like Apple has hired a new guy responsible for all kinds of graphics and the way Apple gadgets look. At first he paints new ‘cheap’ iPhones red, green and yellow, then completely redesigns iOS 7 and after that persuades the executives to register a new FaceTime logo, which he likes immensely, as a trademark.

New renderings of the low cost iPhone based on recently leaked schematics have been posted online by AppleInsider.com.

The leaked design is slightly thicker than an iPhone 5, and is expected to have a plastic back panel to keep costs down.
