The long-awaited white version of the iPhone 4 made its debut last week. And, right out of the gate, eagle-eyed observers noted that the phone was slightly thicker than its ultra-slim sibling.
The added thickness -- .2mm, according to TiPb, an iPhone, iPad, and iPod blog -- is barely noticeable. But when the two phones are held side by side, as in this picture posted on CNET.com, the ever-so-slight difference is clear.
But not apparently to Phil Shiller, Apple's Senior Vice President of Product Marketing. He responded to a tweet sent his way by a reader of 9to5Mac.com, asking for confirmation of the size discrepancy between the two phones. Shiller's response, sent via a private direct message that has since been made public, reads, "It is not thicker, don't believe all the junk that you read."
Despite Shiller's response, the difference in size between the two phones seems clear. At least to this untrained eye.
MY THOUGHTS
It does look a little thicker.
