June 18 Fernando Jersey UK , 2012 | Author: mihaoxafoxs | Posted in Mobile Phones iPhone 5 release dateThis years WWDC was about software, not hardware, with Apple focussing on iOS and Mac OSA new report from China later stated that Q3 (which still includes July) is now the earliest we will see the iPhone 5, after the disaster in Japan pushed back supply of key components.On 20 April 2011, it emerged that the iPhone 5 release date may be September 2011 rather than JuneJuly. This date was cited by three sources who spoke to Reuters. As iOS 5 is set to be out in the Autumn, its a safe bet that the iPhone 5 will make its debut sometime then.On 17 May Fernandinho Jersey UK , we reported that Phones4U outed the iPhone 5 release date as 21 November 2011. Were not sure how Phones4U would know the release date at this stage, though, so take this particular snippet of information with a pinch of salt.The iPhone 5 will debut alongside iOS 5 in the AutumniOS 5 will ship in the Autumn, says Apple. Could this coincide with the iPhone 5?iPhone 5 form factorThe Wall Street Journal reported that: Apple is also developing a new iPhone model, said people briefed on the phone. One person familiar said the fifth-generation iPhone would be a different form factor than those that are currently available. it was unclear how soon that version would be available to Verizon or other carriers.This has since been backed up by reports from Engadget, which state the design will be a total rethink.Of course Fabian Delph Jersey UK , since the iPhone 3G was followed by the 3GS its possible the new iPhone wont be a total refresh and well see an iPhone 4S (or iPhone 4GS) before an iPhone 5.An iPhone 4S looked more likely on 16 May 2011 after analyst Peter Misek wrote: According to our industry checks, the device should be called iPhone 4S and include minor cosmetic changes, better cameras, A5 dual-core processor, and HSPA+ support.However, earlier reports from China backed up the larger-screened Eliaquim Mangala Jersey UK , metal chassis-sporting iPhone 5 rumours, so the redesign still seems firmly on the cards.On 22 March 2011, China Times also reported that the iPhone 5 will feature a 4-inch display.A rumour we covered on 7 March 2011 suggests that the new iPhone will do away with the glass back and opt instead for a metal back which will act as a new iPhone antenna.And an Apple patent that we reported on on 7 April 2011 suggests that we could see the bezel put to good use on the new iPhone. The patent describes how visual indicators and touch-sensitive buttons could be incorporated to the space around the iPhone screen.Rumours that we covered on 3 May 2011, suggest that there may even be two versions of the new iPhone: a standard iPhone 5 and an iPhone 5 pro.

As we reported on 18 February, the New York Times cites an anonymous source who says there will be no smaller iPhone from Apple. The size of the device would not vary, says the source.A white iPhone 5The Economic Daily News is reporting that white iPhone 5 glass is being shipped, with a supplier called Wintek being the sole touch panel vendor for the white iPhone.iPhone 5 will support 1080p HDIts fairly likely given that the iPad 2 supports Full HD that the new iPhone will do the same.iPhone 5 specsAccording to the Chinese Economic Daily News (via AppleInsider) Bruno Zuculini Jersey UK , with the exception of Qualcomm chipsets which would replace the current Infineon chipsets in the iPhone 4 Apples sticking with the same suppliers for the 2011 iPhone 5G components.Wed expect the basics of the iPhone 5 specs to get a bump more memory, faster processor, and more storage. The A5 dual-core ARM processor from the iPad 2 is extremely likely to be included.The specs? A new antenna, 1.2GHz processor (possibly dual-core) and a larger screen: 3.7″ instead of 3.5″.

Digitimes quotes the source as saying that Apple is expanding the screen size to support the tablet PC market as the vendor only has a 9.7-inch iPad in the market.On 23 May, we reported on rumours that the iPhone 5 could feature a curved glass screen. These rumours also came from Digitimes, which said that Apple has purchased between 200 and 300 special glass cutting machines because theyre too costly for the manufacturers to invest in.The iPhone 5 or iPhone 4S will also get a massive graphical boost as it moves to a dual-core GPU this could herald true 1080p output from the new device, according to our news story on 18 January.iPhone 5 digital walletTheres been some speculation that Apple might include Near Field Communication (NFC) technology in the iPhone 5G, turning it into a kind of cre Pictures Publications » Str.
