Apple may or may not release an incremental iPhone 5S upgrade this year but, if history is any indication, the 2014 iPhone 6 should definitely look like this.

Created by Ran Avni, the concept video embedded above shows a spectacular shift from the current form factor, with an awesome design that even Jony Ive himself would be proud of.

The unibody enclosure blends surprisingly well with the enlarged, glossy radio "window" on the back, and the 4.5-inch display is really a must for Apple’s next iPhone revolution.

Concepts generally propose ideas that are too good to be true, but this design is definitely doable. Apple could cram inside that big chassis everything a smartphone needs to be an instant hit, including powerful processors, a large memory bank, and a battery that keeps the device alive for a full week.

It doesn’t always have to be thinner to be better.
