Apple's three quarter view shots are generally referred to as "hero" shots. I noticed it back when I used to create Apple product brochures for my college's bookstore. You can get high resolution images from <a href="http://www.apple.com/pr/products/" rel="nofollow">Apple's PR site</a>, and some of them will be referred to as a "hero" shot.

I think that Apple calles those big, imposing shots of the devices, "hero shots" In fact, they use that naming convention quite often, see here: http://www.apple.com/ipodclassic/ On the new iPod Nano page they have this in the HTML: A little video for everyone. <a href="/ipodnano/ads/" rel="nofollow"></a> <!-- /hero --> They have hero divs on most products: http://www.apple.com/appletv/ for example.
