A comment on iPhone 6.

The protruding camera kind of bothers me, probably much more than it really should. But I feel like Apple's obsession with thinness may have gone too far if they need to protrude the camera like this.

The strangest part is that they don't even show the bulge in the product renders on the site: http://images.apple.com/iphone-6/overview/images/design_deta...

It's as if they're in denial.

Oh wow, good catch. I didn't even see that.

I wonder if this has anything to do with the gyroscope for image stabilization.

Isn't that only in the 6+ version though? The camera is sticking out in both phones.

Didn't catch that stabilization is only available on plus. That's a bummer! Anyway, they may have decided to make it protrude on the 6 in order to match the 6 plus, which has the constraint. Just guessing..
