Apple Reported to be Working on Redesigned iPhone Handset

?Apple is already working on its next-generation iPhone, according to reports, although the new handset will not be released until late next year.

Citing a close source, the BGR website reported that the handset -- presumed to be an iPhone 5 -- will have a case including a rubber or plastic material that is similar to the material used in the company's bumper cases.

BGR suggests that this material will be used as a bezel surrounding the front edge of the phone that will join the glass iPhone face with a new aluminum back plate and permit the edge wrap around antenna to function, regardless of how the user holds the phone.

That the handset will not be released until late next year suggests that the handset design that Apple was working on this year has been scrapped as unworkable.
