iPhone 5 Review - Want An iPhone 5?! Then You NEED To Read This!!
82Not An iPhone 5 - Just a picture to make the hub look pretty
The NEW iPhone 5 Is Released THIS YEAR
Are you as excited about the release of the new iPhone 5 as I am? Probably not, because I'm the one writing this hub and you're the one reading it (hopefully). I hate to admit it but somehow I've managed to become one of those Apple fangirls that you see walk into the Apple store and spend 30 minutes asking the employees all sorts of uber geek questions.
For one reason or another I've taken it upon myself to find out as much as possible about the new iPhone 5 so that I could spread this knowledge. What do I get out of it? The benefit of knowing I'm helping rid the world of lesser non-Apple phones (*cough HTC Evo cough*).
As if the iPhone 4 wasn't groundbreaking enough, the iPhone 5 is going to revolutionize the world of cell phones. Here's why:
One of the biggest benefits of owning a new iPhone 5 is that it'll come with dual core processors that will make it load at super fast speeds. Not only that, but it will be incorporating even more powerful graphics chip cards, which will provide you with better video and still images. As if the 20 gigawatt gazillion megapixel already in the iPhone 4 wasn't enough...
Right now it looks like the new iPhone 5 will be running on a 4G network (instead of the usual 3G). That means that some of the most likely network carriers to get a plan under are Sprint, T-Mobile, and maybe AT&T and Verizon. But we've all heard a lot of complaints about AT&T's network in the past, so I'm not sure how many people would opt to go with them for the new iPhone.
In fact, one of the reasons behind the increase in Jailbreaks of the iPhone 4 was that AT&T's network had way too many problems with it. Rather than deal with AT&T a lot of people ended up jailbreaking their phones instead, a fair deal considering you can get free ringtones, themes, and apps when you jailbreak your phone.
Also, anyone who says Android based cell phones are going to be able to compete with the new iPhone 5 are completely delirious. They won't even come close to the capabilities offered by the new iPhone when it comes out.
If you're thinking about buying the iPhone 4, you'll be better off waiting for the iPhone 5 instead, as it should be coming out really soon this year. Here are some of the expected features:
- The new iPhone 5 is expected to have Face Recognition Security so that you don't have to worry about other people stealing your phone and trying to use it... That is, unless they steal your face too. (Anyone seen Face Off?)
- Video Chat on a 4G network instead of a slow 3G one
- Much nicer overall body design of the phone. It's going to be even thinner and have a shiny black piece.
- Shatter Resistant and Scratch Resistant Screen
- The lowest model will come with 32G of space and 64G of memory. I'll be able to store my whole computer on the lowest model of the iPhone 5. Yippeee for me.
- Longer Battery Life - Up to 14 Hours of Talk Time On The 3G and 7 Hours on the 4G. With 14 hours of talking to my girlfriends, I'm only going to have 10 hours to sleep =(
- HD Audio - The quality of sound is going to be extra crisp.
- Built In GPS - You'll never get lost or have to download one of those stupid GPS apps.
How much will the new iPhone 5 cost? I can't speculate on that, but I'm going to assume it'll run you over $500. It's definitely going to be worth it though, and I can't wait for it to come out.

HD Audio??? hmm
I can wait for the iphone 5 to come out I have been waiting for years for Verizon to get the iphone and now that its on the way...I definitely can't wait to get the newest version...I love my Droid X but I just have to have a iphone....Just call me NuNu cause I just have to have the New New...lol...great write up keep them coming...
I've heard that it is too thin to allow for earphones....if this is true, why bother with I-tunes app! Is this true?...I can't imagine not being able to plug in to my tunes
ciaokatherine - thank you for putting in all your infos & review, it sure helped a lot in my decision to wait for the Iphone 5. I am excited!
I sure hope AT&T keeps up with the Iphone 5!!!
@TIME, if that is the case you had better get yourself a set of bluetooth earphones
Wow. You are the reason people hate Apple. I use Apple products almost exclusively, but your statement about Android is one of the most ill contrived assumptions I've ever heard. Get off your high horse and accept the fact that there are other phones that can compete with the iPhone (The EVO included).
Wow that sounds awesomee!!
I was thinking of buying an ipone 4 but now i just gotta wait for the iphone 5 :)
same thing, wanted to upgrade mine for iphone 4 in just four days for lower price, but... will wait for the 5th edition and switch to verizon... half-a-year countdown...
Hello everyone :] Hows the rumours about Iphone 5 going? Just WAIT, LOSERS!!!!!!
you people talk much, there is no iphone5 coming u better buy iphone4 cos it takes minmum 2-3years before makin another one.he s not that stupid2make new instead of sellin first the 4th one its all about the benjamin!!!!!!!!!!!.
cant wait for the iphone5!!
Is the iPhone 5 gonna be the 4G or will they release the 4G and after a couple of months release the iPhone 5... Sounds a bit too soon for a 5..
Well, im sure the initial Iphone 5 will be better than iphone 4 BUT, with all new designs there will be problems. I got the I4G and its nice with its issues...so, ill pass on the 5G and wait for the 5GS to come out. You know it will have the tweaks more resolved by then.
Why not jump one version and wait for iphone 6?
Ive had every iphone 1st gen thru iphone 4...i was very sad 2 switch over 2 verizon (droidx) due 2 crappy at&t service...im super excited 2 get back 2 the iphone yes im waiting for the 5...in my opinion the iphone is light years ahead of ne android based phone....Y....the iphone is so much simpler and user friendly...i went from s basic flip phone 2 an iphone way back when and apple made the transition super simple...
i have iphone 3gs.its very very good phone...and i will buy iphone 5
I know your reading this Eve, as now, loads of time on hands...
Got Iphone 5, and i'm guessing that there will be a software up date on phones release..
looking forwRD TO UP GRADE, but not buying a new phone..
Apple - Morden day crack dealer. ,,Keeps on coming out with new product, that you just can't wait to try..
Create a need, then get you hooked...
I wonder what would happen if i had a phone fast..
would i really miss it that much..
enjoy, have fun, and .....
to be cont.....
Well like 90% of this is pure shit. The only things that are reputable here are that the iPhone 5 will have "a new form factor" (or something like that) so it'll look cool. And NFC which you didn't mention. As one of the chris is gay-ers said android does alot of this (nexus s I believe has NFC). iPhones do have an advantage over android just because it's apple. Guarantee when apple adopts NFC it'll explode and you'll be able to pay for almost anything with just your phone.
honest question
Ive only had android phones, but i am considering purchasing the iphone 5 when it comes out. The only problem i have is with flash.
ive read that without flash, one would not be able to access many websites.
how does iphone solve this problem
Yippeeee! Can't wait for IPhone5! Thanks for the info & taking time to help inform.
Loved that u r as excited as me;)!
Megapixels are used to measure camera image resolution. Gigawatts are a measure of energy conversion. The fact that the iPhone 5 will have a dual core processor means that it will be keeping up with competition, not exceeding it (apple needs to buy its chips from somewhere and that somewhere is the same place Android-based phone manufacturers are buying from). Same deal with the dedicated graphics processing chip. The only thing that's truly remarkable about the iPhone in my opinion is the quality of materials used to manufacture the device.
64 or 32 g of memory would put this device in the database server range. iPhones are great, this article isn't. It was more of a love note.
Is the iphone 5 release date in june 2011 just for US or Canada too?
hopefuly they will be some decent photos of the iphone 5 , i have seen nothing yet except photoshoped ones.
Hoooooooooo!!!!!!!! I can wait .But i don't have money
hopefully i will have enough money from my 18th to buy this . it will be my first iPhone i currently have a LG Arena. since i got my MBP for xmas i want all my gadgets to be apple!!
Don't know about you guys but here in the UK we are tied into 24 month contracts with iPhones. Therefore those of us with iPhone 4s will have to wait another year or, if their provider allows it, pay a hefty fee to upgrade early. How much would you expect the iPhone 5 to retail at sim free? If it's more than the iPhone 4 I'm gonna be a bit annoyed especially if it is so much better. I love my iPhone but couldn't apple at least allow people with the previous model to send it back and pay a smaller price? I mean I got mine in september and if the iPhone 5 comes out in June mine will still be under warrantee. Anyone agree?
i will be getting the iphone 5 when it comes out i have a 3Gs now nd i thnk it kinda sux!!! BUT i do hpe apple stps bein greedy considerin they've mad lods of mny frm da iphone 4 nd make the iphone hav BLUETOOTH!!!
I like stuff
If the Iphone 5 will not be LTE, as Apple has gone on record saying that. So, I wonder what the author of this article means by "4G"? VZW already has a LTE network, and ATT is gonna start theirs later this year. If Apple wanted to have one LTE model for both ATT and VZW, it would come next year(2012). This year's model is said to be a complete redesign, and dual core processor. Question really is, how often can you actually upgrade to the latest model of the Iphone without being forced to pay full retail?
Where did all these specs come from? Would be great if they are true, but who knows. Guess ill have to wait and see.
Not all UK iPhone 4 customers are tied into 24 month contracts, there are 18 and 24 month contract so it's up to the customer what they choose. If u choose a 24 month one then that's your own bloody fault numbnuts. And you can ask the apple people as many questions as you like cos no matter what they tell you it's bullshit. No-one knows yet what the iPhone 5 is gonna look like or have integrated into it except the people apple Pay millions to have it designed and I think it's very doubtful that anyone in any forum personally knows these designers. Remember this time last year all the shit people said was gonna be in the iPhone 4 and look what happened it was a totally different phone to wat was being reported by people who know fuk all. I work for o2
You are absolutely right bro.. no one can compete with IPhone..
I really caaaaaaaant wait for Iphone 5..it is gana be wow!!
Here is your attention - ATTENTION WHORE!
There is ZERO evidence of what the iPhone 5 will look like nor the features it will host. Creating a hub suggesting otherwise is lying to the public. The iPhone 4 mis-release was a huge embarrassment to Apple, and they wont be making the same mistake again. "The lowest model will come with 32G of space and 64G of memory" that does not even make sense. space is memory. And "HD Audio"? The human ear cannot even hear above 320kbps, so again, no sense made. Show your "sources" when posting some BS like this.
Why do all of these comparisions tend to be an all out Apple Vs HTC (or something else)? Most of the comments are from Apple lovers who are just plain excited. I have also read comments for the Iphone4, where people comment how cool it is without even owning it.
Just get real. This 'review' is biased towards Apple. It doesnt really shed any useful information, but is in fact just an article by an Apple lover looking to put down the competition.
I Own HTC, and think they have done a wonderful job. Although, it needs improvement. Apple products are very good too... and I may even switch. Im not an Apple lover, nor an HTC lover. I just go with whoever offers the best technology and bang for the buck.
As a developer, Googles Android is offering stiff competition, and it will only improve. Apples applications are very good, however there are lots of issues for Developers on what they can and cant do.
And dont forget, its only with the Iphone4 that they have even allowed multitasking (AFAIK). Lets not forget the Battery issues, and the antenna issues also. Oh and not to mention the Flash issues either.
If you are going to review something, just review it - dont drool.
Personally, I consider all options, then go for the best one. It doesnt matter if it has an apple logo, or Dell, or Samsung or HTC. Im not bothered, as long as it can do what I want it to reasonably well, and offer more technology to last me a few years. Perhaps more of you people should too.
I am in Saudi Arabia , how long will I have to wait to have this great Phone .????????? I need a reply Please.....:)
I'm an iphone lover and is about to buy the iphone4 to upgrade from 3gs. It's good I found this site, now i'm going to wait for the iphone5. Thanks a lot for the info and keep it up.
I need speech recognition for doing email with a smart phone. The droid's is amazing. But i'd prefer an iphone. will it have speech recognition, not just for speaking in folks you want to call, but for email or writing notes etc?
I have iPhone 4, bought several months ego and bind with two years contract with AT&T. When contract ends I will buy new version of iPhone.
Thank you!!! I was going to buy the iPhone 4 in April when my contract ends but I'm definitely going to wait!!!
Do you have any references/sources for this infomation though?
Only if they make it round again. I hate this squared Iphone4.
U moron, the htc evo is way better than the dumb iphone. Bigger screen, better cameras, hdmi output, kickstand, does not lose signal when holding the phone a certain way, becomes a hotspot and is 4G. The iphone was great 4 years ago its time for a change and the evo sure did that.
I will Wait for it no doubt about it. I hope it could play flash vids
Im gonna wait until iphone6 comes out
What about being able to video chat without needing wifi? is that guaranteed with the 4G???
to eileen, yes it should. htc evo does it on 3G so one more reason why htc evo is better.
is T-mobile gonna HAVE THE IPHONE 5 SINCE ITS 4g
Twills77, t-mobile doesn't have 4G they have 3.5G its not only the speed that counts but the technology behind it as well. Hspa+ is not 4G if it were then why would t-mobile try to bid in on clear.
i've already put a side the money, bring it out!!!
I have had my 3GS for 2 Months it is the best phone/entertainments centre I have ever had my contract is up in June and I am waiting to see what mods apple have made, I work for O2 and will probably have to wait a couple of Months till the hype has died down. Looking forward to it though. I also prefer the old rounded look and hope it has a working blue tooth.
You mention Jailbreaking your phone! What does this mean?
You mention Jailbreaking your phone! What does this mean?
The official release date for the iPhone5 is September 6, 2011. It will be priced at $199.99 for the 32G version. You will recieve a 50% discount if you are gay and/or liberal and if you are a lesbian with armpit and leg hair, the phone is free. Also each phone comes Obama stickers and hemp jewelry.
Jailbreaking[1] is a process that allows devices running Apple's iOS operating system (such as the iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch, and recently Apple TV) to gain full access (root access) to all features of the said operating system, thereby removing limitations imposed by Apple. Once jailbroken,[1] iOS users are able to download additional applications, extensions and themes that are unavailable through the official App Store, via installers such as Cydia, one of a number of current means for older iPhones. A jailbroken iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch running iOS can still use the App Store and iTunes and other normal functions, such as making telephone calls.
Take a look at the iPhone 5 specs compared to it's competitors specs. Not only are they similar, but the processors, video, battery, networks, etc will all be out by march for less than half the price on the Android platform versus waiting until summer for the apple platform. Apple: Behind the curve my friends!
LOL, you sound so desperate to shove your opinion down everyones throat it's sad. I'm sorry you have tunnel vision but the iphone is not the king anymore. You compare the iphone 5 to CURRENT available android phones to make it look groundbreaking, yet android phones are coming out with all the things you mentioned, before the iphone 5 will even be released. Dual core processors, HD video/audio, blah blah blah, android already can output HD via HDMI but you seem to leave that out. Android has the step up because you now have dozens of companies competing to make the best android phone, which results in quicker updates to phones and always the latest technology. The iphone will never have that. The Iphone is still a great phone and it will be interesting to see the updates coming to it, BUT it is not any better than upcoming android phones so try to be a little less naive, it just makes you sound stupid.
Guys,my advice to you,just wait for the Iphone 15 to come out...it has more advance features...i'm sure of that...these are some features of Iphone 15,it can transform into:
1.car- while the car is running and someone is calling you,the car will automatically transform to phone.
2.flat iron
3.jet ski- same as number one..
4.baseball bat
5.faucet- when you are thirsty
6.thread mill
these are just some of the features..but there are lots more,more than you can imagine..so stay tuned..
First Of All Who The Fuck Says Uber But Seriously WTF Why Do People Waist Time Worryin Bout What The Next Iphone Gona Look Like And What Its Gona Do Like Get A Life. Hell Be Glad That You Can Afford One People Like ((((Chris))))) Cant Cause Hes A Poor White Thrash Gaybag That Lives With His Mom In The Trailer Park Who Drives A Raggedy Pinto Rollin On Walmart Fake Spinners With A Tape Deck In That Bitch No Need For Cds Cause He Cant Afford A Em
Ps
FYI CHRIS THEY DO NOT TAKE FOOD STAMPS FOR IPHONES ANYWHERE !!!!!
NOW QUIT BEIN LAZY AND PICK UP ALL THOSE DAMN BEER CANS OUT OF YOUR YARD AND SELL THEM AND SAVE UP YOUR WELFARE CHECKS AND JUST MABYE YOU CAN AFFORD A Iphone (3g).
@TIME, If you believe that apple would be stupid enough to actually not allow headphone to be connected to the new iPhone, you are too stupid and unqualified to own one.
check out iphone 5g its cool cant wait
youre a dummy, android already has a 4g phone with visual calling (which is OLD technology).
Will Sprint ever get the Iphone?
Who knows! Never thought Verizon would because both Sprint and Verizon are still on CDMA technology, but they are soon to get the iphone on Verizon, it will still run on CDMA which will more than likely crash the network withint the first quarter, but lets wait and see!
Any seen that futurama EYEphone? I think that's how the iPhone 10 should be.
Hi just wanted to ask anybody here that if anybody knows that which Network Carriers are going to provide iphone 5 in Canada? and what is your speculation of when the iphone5 is going to come out?
Thanx
I have never had an iphone but i have thought about getting the iphone 5. I think it should stay the same price as the iphone 4. $500 is too much for any phone with 2 year contract. Did apple fix the problems with the iphone 4? If they did maybe I will just get that phone when the 5 comes out. First coming out they always have so many problems.
Here's the information I have for those who are interested in facts. I work in a company that uses a lot of smart phones, and I'm typically the one ordering them, setting them up, and teaching end users how to navigate the phone. Android is more versatile than the iPhone (any generation) thanks to the ability to write your own apps if you can't find what you are looking for in the store. HOWEVER, if you load a third party (not downloaded from the Android Market/not approved by Google) you have voided your phone's warranty. That means if you load an app you created and it bricks your phone, you are in the same boat as iPhone users who decided to find out if iPhones have a lighter density than water, or let their dog use it as a chew toy. You still have to purchase a new phone at full price (typically $500+) if you are outside upgrade cycle.
In my experience, the Android OS phones that seem to have the most issues are HTC and LG. Some of the models are better than others obviously, but that is part of the reason HTC tends to be a scapegoat.
iPhones are attractive because they are trandy and "just work"... except when they don't. I've had nearly every problem that can be fixed by a factory reset and many hardware defects not caused by rough handling.
Technologically speaking, iPhone is behind. They still do not have expandable memory which most smart phones have(Blackberry, Windows Mobile, Android). For instance, Droid X has 8GB on-board memory and takes up to a 32GB micro-SD. It comes with a 2GB micro SD installed, but if you decide you need more, you only have to buy a new micro SD card instead of a new phone. Many Windows Mobile phones and Blackberry's are similar even if they don't have the same max capacity (8GB on BB for instance).
The iPhone 5, will without a doubt, be a great phone, but a lot of the new functions and features you mentioned the iPhone 5 will be getting will already be not-so-new by the time it is released around summertime.
Please, look up the Motorola Atrix, which is coming out either this month or in March. It has a dual-core 1GHz processor, 1GB RAM, 16GB built-in storage (expandable with microSD card), 4G, 720p video recording (will be upgraded to 1080p through software update), video chat on 4G, Flash 10 support, 1930 mAh battery life (good for 8-hours talk-time), 540 x 960 pixels 4.0 inches display (1/4 HD), Gorilla Glass screen, built-in GPS guidance, FM radio, HDMI output to watch HD on TV, DLNA (share multi-media files over network). In addition, you can turn it into a netbook using a docking station. Available on AT&T soon.
Also, check out the LG Optimus 2X with similar specs. It will be releasing in the first half of 2011.
I doubt the new iPhone 5 will be costing $500 dollars. If it does I'll stick to my iPhone 4
Well,I sincerely appriciate the mindset of
all iPhone users wether first or the fourth
version. The truth is,its features are diffe-
rent from every other phones I've come
accrossed and it's durable and essential.
Conclusively,it's motivating...can't wait to
buy me d iPhone 5. Samurai
Thank u for the info! The Face Off part was funny :)
Great article!!!
Why is anybody taking what this woman has to say as truth? She, like millions of other bloggers out there, is guessing what will be included on iPhone5. She sits back and bashes other products because she's an Apple fan. I get that. I like Apple as well but when the time comes to upgrade this summer I'll choose a product that works on Verizon's LTE network. I don't think iPhone5 will be that phone. Maybe iPhone6 in 2012?
If you ask me what did change my life completely, besides my wife and my two kids, I would say, the iPhone! Just to understand how valuable it is to me, I would say that, when I die, I want to bury with it. Going against what some people say, I want it on AT&T. It works wonderfully for me. Iphone, the most useful thing that I ever bought.
ill be waiting for the next iphone. My 4g is fine. Unless i break it I can't see any reason why I would wasye tey more money....
Yes I will be buying the Iphone 5 when it come out, and giving my son my Iphone 4.
Android > iphone. The facts don't lie.
i will surely bw buying it but when is it coming out
@K8Monster Ok as you seem to be one of the few with real knowledge of the smartphone Market, would you make an estimate for me, I work for a cel provider - but not directly with hardware, I have been trying to find the release date of the Galaxy S2 not Feb 13 but the date they are available for purchase. The people I know have been very tight lipped about all the smartphones coming out. I was going to do an upgrade yesterday and my friend who is in that sector said "wait" I know the LG release is next month and Iphone5 this summer what is your opinion on the time for the S2??
I hate that they cost so much money.
Deffoooo...uppp 4 d iphone 5....arrrggghhh cant wait people...but im skint.....!!!
Will the i phone 5 work with t-mobile since its a 4G network??
Wit apple iPhone in your life, u will never miss the sweetness pat of life ,if don't have it u her lost.I just love my iPhone .I still Ned the new iphone5 .my iPhone is my best friend- godless apple
Wow. There will be plenty of dual core phones released before the iPhone 5. There is nothing revolutionary about Apple's device. It is playing catch up.
In fact, the first dual core phone is an Android - so eat your words.
I am so glad that I saw this article... I can't wait to get my hands on the new iphone... I don't using this word often, but I sort of "hate" my iphone 4... ugh... please keep the comments coming, especially when we can sign up for early ordering... whoo hoo..
hahahahahahahahahahah yall are funni
when they realesed the iphone 4 they said it would be the best iphone ever to be made? clearly not cause they have made a better one now =(
I love my iPhone. But I hate apple. They really are the worst company with the worst god complex. They don't trust their customers with a single ounce of freedom. Come on, how stupid do they have to be to not allow us to put custom text sounds in our iPhones?! And it took until IOS 4 to get wallpapers without jailbreaking. Oh, and the comment about the cost, off the shelf it'll probably a lot more than $500. More like $750. But since carriers will be selling them with contracts, it's almost a guarantee that they will continue the trend of $199 with a new contract for the lowest models. But even though I hate apple and their decisions, I do love their technology.
You said that the android phones won't even be able to compete? Android already has the capabilities of this fictional iPhone 5-not that I am an android fanboy, as I actually am writing this on an iPhone 4. It's just that android already has dual core processors. Ever heard of the Tegra 2? I just had to write this based on how poorly researched this article was.
:)
I just got the iPhone 4. I'm curious where you got your information from. The face recognition thing sounds cool so no one can jack your phone.
Is there any point in waiting for an iPhone 5 that runs on a 4G network, if you're a Verizon customer who won't have 4G access (I live in the back of beyond....)
Thanks for the info, your writing was awesome. Connected with me, (girlie faces) thanks again =]
While I don't prefer one to the other, the current android phones have already surpassed the iPhone 4 specs and within the month they will have already passed up the specs you speak of with the iPhone 5... and we still wont see that guy for another 6 months.. so like others have said here, while we get why you love the iPhone, don't trash talk the android with misinformation.
I cant wait for the Iphone 5, it sounds like a great phone. Do you happen to know about when it will be released? I currently have a Droid X. It is a very good phone but I have wanted the Iphone since they first come out but did not want to take a chance on the AT&T network. I have high hopes for the Iphone on the Verizon Network.
@ Ryan
LMAO that made me make a puddle on the floor hahahaha funny dude
Lol the guy above me...complete liar. And in terms of your "feature" list, well unfortuneatly, thats what you want, NOT what its going to have.
i really want one but im only 11 almost 12 but i dont know if my parents will actually pay 500 dollars for a phone for me but who knows i dont think it will be 500 dollars i think 250 at most because all the other ones have been 199 than reduced to 99 once a new one came out
I just hope it comes with an indicator light, i have a bb 9700 now and am waiting for the new iPhone .....
Ok this iPhone five crap I mean really there's no difference between the others expect with more crap on it
Motorola Droid Bionic will make the iPhone look like a toy. Unlimited Verizon plan will make AT&T yesterdays news. Honeycomb Android 3.0 will make iphone 0S 4.3.1.2 look like it has to keep getting fixed
DROID
You just listed everything that HTC has had on their phones for the past 7 months.. Minus the Apple logo, iPhone5 will be a step down from an Evo or even HD2... Sad story.
its goin be cheaper then 500 more lik 300
Hi people, June 10 2011(Tentative) would be the launch of our latest technology in handheld devices at our factory in California. The 5th generation iPhone.
I'm so getting this, just for the fact the lowest model will come with 32G of space AND 64G of MEMORY... that right 64G of MEMORY!!!! AMAZING!!!
Firstly well done on a good review on a product you don't have. All my friends have a iPhone 4 but I thing I'll put up with my slow iPhone 3G till the new one is out. I expect it will be like upgrading from a comadore 64 to the latest quad core ?
I read from another site, that there's a possibility that iphone 5 wont be having rear camera. I'd rather buy iphone 4 then..
Presumably most people with iPhone 4 will be more interested in the iPhone 6, as contracts tend to be two years. So the iPhone 5 will appeal to iPhone 3 users. Katherine do you have any info on the 6?
Just like all of you guys I'm a slave to anything Apple. I'll be waiting in line for the iphone 5. Wondering why worship stuff and allow myself to be manipulated into thinking my much of my self worth is wrapped up in a phone in plastic and computer chips.
Mmmm...iPhone...
-Drool-
I have verizon right now, and currently have the Droid. My brother and dad both have the Iphone 4 on AT&T network and I'm super excited that Iphones will be available for Verizon now as well! I wanted to get the Iphone4 for Verizon when it came out... but I am most definitely waiting for the Iphone5! Im sooo excited I cant wait until they announce the release date!
The shatterproof scratch proof screen is already on the Galaxy s phones it's made by corning they call it a gorilla screen. Second the chip for the iphone 4 comes from Samsung same chip as the Galaxy galaxy S an I phone 5 rumored to be using the chip in the Galaxy S 2 by Samsung. Yes, I see how iphone 5 is better than android.
64G of memory?????? that alone would run you over $2,000. you might want to check those numbers again.
the 64G of memory is a ridiculous statement no phone in the next 20 years will ever have that much memory.
It's going to have this and that and this and that, but will it work? and if it works will the battery last longer than 6 hours? if it doesn't will I be able to replace the battery without hiring an engineer? if the batter lasts longer than 6 hours, will I be able to hear the speaker if sombody calls when there's a cricket making noise in the background? If I hear the phone ringing will I be able to finish a sentence without the phone dropping the call? I could go on, but you fanboys and girls probably don't get anything I wrote anyway.
Will sprint get the iphone 5
Will sprint get the iphone 5
I will be purchasing the iphone 5 with 64 gb memory. I do hope that it will allow FaceTime calling over the 3G and 4G networks. Right now when I am away from WiFi I use Skype to make face time calls but over 3G the video sometimes freezes.
I want some Face Time with my gals....im gonna get me an Iphone schmuck 4.3..
The Iphone will be great, but dont be worried about the price, apple has studied done hundreds and hundreds and then hired acct's to do thousands of price impact studies, and they will keep the price around $199 to $299 and then 64gb $399 to $499...
i m saving my poket money for it,,
But will verizon iphone still have app store??
The ATT network is currently upgrading its old 3G network to compete with the more "up-to-date" wireless providers such as Verizon and T-mobile and Sprint. However, the new "4G" network being built by ATT is more close to a literal 6G network, with double layer coverage in areas with reception. This being said, ATT is of course going to obtain the iphone 5, and it is most likely going to be the only one with capable speeds to comply with the abilities of the up and coming Iphone 5.
GPS - wow, that's really revolutionary. I wonder how many phones actually have that.
I'm switching to a iPhone asap! These evo phones lick balls!!
you're all dumb...
I would love your take on the upcoming Motorola Bionic.
i got a iphone 3gs and the only reason i still have it is cuz im waiting on the iphone 5 to come out. cant wait! im going to buy it and im only 13
What nonsense article is this. Says nothing about the iPhone 5, and comparing a not yet in existence product with a currently in existence product. Shame on this article, I say.
Wack!!! Iphone number whatever over rated!!.. they said the same thing about the iphone 4....Whatever!! you guys have fun until HTC drops another one on Apple's head. You see, we don't gotta jailbreak our phones to make them work..they just work!!!!!
The new iPhone 5 is expected to have Face Recognition Security so that you don't have to worry about other people stealing your phone and trying to use it... That is, unless they steal your face too. (Anyone seen Face Off?)
Really!!!!! Whatever!! Not that it matters when your phone is stolen, but you'll tell your friends that "haha, that can't use cause it has Face Recognition" plus Droid already does that, ever heard of Lookout mobile security?..Yeah!! Hot!!!!
Video Chat on a 4G network instead of a slow 3G one
Much nicer overall body design of the phone. It's going to be even thinner and have a shiny black piece.
Shatter Resistant and Scratch Resistant Screen
4g instead of 3g huh??? You mean like how the HTC Evo does it now!! Wow!!!!!
The lowest model will come with 32G of space and 64G of memory. I'll be able to store my whole computer on the lowest model of the iPhone 5. Yippeee for me.
Longer Battery Life - Up to 14 Hours of Talk Time On The 3G and 7 Hours on the 4G. With 14 hours of talking to my girlfriends, I'm only going to have 10 hours to sleep =(
HD Audio - The quality of sound is going to be extra crisp.
HD audio huh? ehhh, Whatever!! Apple will probably say it's their "revolutionary idea, but it's not, it's actually intel's. And the whole memory thing, bet ya I can swap out my 32gigs of memory faster that your iphone can, and don't even have sync my phone in any kind of way, wanna bet????
Built In GPS - You'll never get lost or have to download one of those stupid GPS apps.
Oh, this is my personal favorite!!! GPS is soo old news, I mean really, My HTC PPC 6700 with Sprint Navigation had this in 2005. I like how she says "You'll never get lost or have to download one of those stupid GPS apps"
I know she isn't talking about the Droids, cause we come loaded with Gps native and market apps.
Can't compete with Google maps and Nav even while it's in it's beta stage. isn't at&t the one that charges the extra for Nav???? That's funny!!!
well, Glad to see some one from Apple came up from under that rock and took a look at what the REST of the cell phone world is doing!!
Don't worry, we'll take naps while you guys catch up!!!!
By the sound of the IPhone 5, it's gonna cost alot more than 500! It'd probably cost at least £600-£700. In America, probably $800 because at the moment, IPhone 4 cost £500 & £600 in UK. I have every intention to get IPhone 5! I must! MUST! lol
OMG i was just at the mall and i heard that the iphone5 is getting a early release.ITS COMING TO CANADA FIRST and will be out before the end of FEB.
I have had every iPhone from 1 to 4 and I'm writing this post on evo 4g. Best phone I've ever had. Tether wireless connection, bigger screen, no Apple restrictions, and my phone has never froze or had any problems. It does whatever the iPhone 5 supposedly will be able to do except maybe 1080p resolution but its awfully crisp an the screen size makes up for it for sure. Who cares if its stolen and u can't use it cuz of face recognition? Ur phone is still gone. Call ur carrier and get it cut off. Same result. IPhone is more user friendly I must say, but when u learn to use Android its embarrassing Apple OS. It's abilities are endless. Jus wondering, what is 32g of "space"? 64 gigs of memory makes since. Computers don't have 32 gigs of ram. So what is this "space" doesn't make since just fyi. This article is too high on Googles iPhone 5 result list with biased info if u ask me.
In my town we only have 3G. Will the iPhone 5 still work on our 3G network?
Seems like the iPhone 5 is just adding a lot useless shit (face recognition) or introducing things that have been done before (4g phones, 32g-64g hdd, built in maps and gps). Seems like the iPhone 5 is already behind the curve...
How can someone possibly say that Android phones released in 2011 won't compete with the Apple iPhone 5? The Droid Bionic as well as the Atrix are being released this year. Dual core processors, better resolutions, etc. Bias articles should never be published. Give fair reviews of both sides. This is a review, not a sales pitch (at least it shouldn't be). I too am looking to buy an iPhone 5, but also the Droid Bionic. The Android OS is just as good if not better than the Apple's iOS. It's not as intuitive because it offers so much more. It's basically like comparing the interface of a PS3 and a Nintendo Wii. I love the enthusiasm, but seriously, just review the iPhone and stop comparing apples to oranges. The iPhone is great for me due to the fact I have a iTunes library roughly over 60GB and it sorts much better than the music player on my Motorola Droid. Both have their ups and downs. Hardcore nerds (programmers/tech. enthusiasts) the Android line-up may be right for you, and casual smart phone users, the iPhone may be adequate for your needs. Either way, this is a great year for smart phones. Thank you Verizon for finally changing the phone "...that changed everything".
Your review was helpful and interesting right up until the point where you said Android phones won't even come close. Then you turned in to a biased fangirl with no sign of balance or common sense. There will shortly be way more powerful Android phones (Motorola Atrix for one) than the iPhone 4, and will certainly be more powerful phones than the iPhone 5 around shortly after, if not before, the iPhone 5.
Can't wait for the iPhone 5 to come out
That's for the heads up I was headed out tomorrow morning to buy the model4 but I think I'll wait for 5!
People we do not even know what the iPhone 5 is going to be this is just a person post in crap because they are not the creators and they do not know what the heck it is going to look like. They haven't even released when or what it is going to have so all the people saying yay these new features are going to be cool is wasting time reading this shit. They Are probably going to have like 1 or 2 features! So just wait till AT&T or verizon posts stuff about it till now stop wasting your time on non realistic blogs because there are a million of blogs who have way more different features then this shit!
I am looking forward to iphone 5 release ... so that I can buy the iphone 4 cheaper.
I don't need the fancy stuffs, 4G, better audio, bla... bla. Iphone 4 spec is good enough for me. There'll always better and better version but my income is not.
Frankly the speculated new options are gimmicks for kids. More interesting would be a feature somehow automatically eliminating solicitors or phone calls initiated by people with nothing interesting to say. Another built-in feature which would have real value is pre sensing via complex data base and satellite surveillance idiots who do not speak your language and are attempting to contact you for God knows what reason. Better yet, its got to have an alcohol content measuring sensor, true flir sensor, satellite radio, inmarsat communication module, COFDM microwave Tx/Rx system, an ear and ass thermometer, heart beat sensor and body sugar level probe. For all you geeks having nothing better to do but drool over a stupid disposable appliance.
Motorola atrix is the better phone my daily driver is the vibrant rooted of corse video chat app installed team whiskey v rom is fast enough for me no front face camera which I haven't lost any sleep
Apple need to do something ' Dynamic ' with their new iPhone 5. I've had every iPhone out apart from number 4, due to antennagate!!! Other makes of smartphones have caught up and maybe overtaken apple. I personally would like to see a bigger screen, more pixel camera and better Bluetooth that works to download photos to print!!!!
Hope Mr Jobs is better as I look forward to his keynote speeches!!! a1p@hotmail.co.uk
there is a flash based browser for the iphone called "skyfire"
So, lets face the facts, this girl who wrote this does not know anything about the iPhone5. In fact, no one knows. I would not have any expectations yet and it is impossible to tell the price for it. There is no proof that there would even be an iPhone5, probably will, but we don't know. So don't be asking about the price or anything; trust me, no one knows!
Could this article be any more biased? I have an android phone and like it, but I have also owned the iphone 3 and 4 and like android better. Now I'm not saying I haven't had my problems with android and that iphones multifunction capabilities seem better. But both have their flaws. Don't sit there and tell me the iphone 5 will almost be "perfect". Bull****. All phones have their flaws, don't glorify just one brand, at least give me some damn useful info by comparing it to other phones, not just that one will "blow the others out". Thanks for nothing.
This is the most poorly-thought-out review by a person who has no idea what she's talking about.
You say haters are gonna hate. No, you don't get it. We don't hate you. We pity you. You're a moron. We might be angry you exist, but we wouldn't waste time hating you.
1. The Android was a million times more 'revolutionary' than the iPhone for one simple and ultimate reason.
Open Source Development on a internationally available mobile platform. You can program anything you want for it and it will run it. This creates a win-win situation for everyone. Apple didn't do anything revolutionary except make a kick-ass design and they continue to do it every year, but it's the only reason why iPhones are great. The design. The software and the development community is god-awful. Every true geek knows this.
About half of the things in this article are completely wrong and/or don't make sense. This woman has too much time on her hands and STILL didn't take any of that time to research anything she was saying.
Haters gonna hate is a way of saying, "I've done nothing wrong but people dislike me anyways, disregard them."
But you have done something wrong. You've done a lot wrong.
You're wrong. Just all wrong. And the worst part is...
you'll probably never know.

Hello everyone. I am Steve Jobs. Founder of Apple. Im so amazed of how many people are so interested in my products. Especially, the iPhone 4. I can't tell you yet when it is being released but Spring 2011 we are selling the white iPhone again. Thank you everyone for being so interested in my work. Remember the Verizon iPhone has been released and can be ordered online at Verizonwireless.com or Apple.com. Also they are sold in stores at Verizon Wireless and Apple Corp. Thank you again!

I like any good quality phone. The only thing that I am concerned here is the dictatorship of an AT&T. I was Agent for an AT&T for a while, left them because I did not like the way they run their business. Their phone packages are so little and extremely pricy it seems like they are in the business of gold and silver. T Mobile is the only carrier which has the best and the most affordable packages almost available for everyone. Their customer is terrific and its 5 stars. When it comes to carrying the latest Phones, T Mobile is limited to it and don’t have much verity for selection. It would be great if T Mobile decide to introduce the new I Phone 5 at same time when an AT&T does.
Thanks for this information. I have the iphone 3 and love. I am now eligible for an upgrade and will wait for this new phone.
maybe 4gs
Wtf...you are blonde and work as a waitress, right? Dumbest thang i have ever read.
woww iphone 5 is awesome i really like this review and also like this hub thanks
This review tells us nothing and is just some guys OPINION - Look into the upcoming Samsung Infuse or Motorala Atrix & even the low cost HTC Inspire - Apple is ALREADY behind.
Number 5 sounds great. Cannot wait to get it.
Ok, this is crap. i don't get why everybody is so fired up about every freakin ipohone that comes out. I just got my first ipod touch 2 months ago. I didn't get one when they first came out. Who cares about some dumb new features on the new iphone 5? Society is just so sad sometimes, i'm 11 and i realized this!!
Ok, so could google's bitches please stop bullying the woman? She merely stated what she thinks the next iPhone will be, and to be honest I completely agree with her (with the addition of wireless payment). The reason why iPhone is so much better than Qndroid is down to branding; Apple have worked so hard over the last few years in developing this revolutionary product, whilst Android has merely slingshot off Apples success, it doesn't matter how good an Android is, it doesn't have the functionality and ease of use of an iPhone! An analogy is with cars; wouldn't you prefer to pay a bit more for a mercedes than a ford of similar spec? The extra is purely for the service and reliability that you get with Apple, for instance last week I fucked up my iPhone software, I called apple and they sent me out a brand new iPhone the next day; picking up my old one free of charge, other brands simply don't have that prestige! Apple has been selling smooth functional phones for years, whilst the best LG seems to have come up with is the KP500 Cookie, which still gives me nightmares! I would also like to wish Steve Jobs well and to have a speedy recovery!
WRITTEN ON MY IPAD!!!
Really...500.00 dollars? I cannot imagine people would pay that amount of money for a phone. Here is hoping that it will be much cheaper.
You say 4G only really(?), they might as well put the gun to there head now and pull the trigger. You do realize not everyone lives in or around the 32 major NFL cities, thus is where the 4G seems to be limited to. There are other US citizens out there(much more then the cities nation wide) that love to get the new technology even though we have to deal with the oh so slow 3G..(whatever) Its fast enough for the majority of us.I think the i5 will be available on 3G as well as 4G. Just like the i4 is able to use the 3G and the (crappy) Edge. I will be switching to Verizon to get my i5 in June/July and will be very happy to be using the 3G network. Where I live now AT&T doesn't offer 3G, and 4G on Verizon is not expected in this area until late 2013.
Just goes into the Fraud File, as the heading reads iphone 5 review, indicating that you have an iphone 5 in your presence and are 'reviewing' it.
Nothing more than an opinion which you ARE allowed to have.
Your statement "The lowest model will come with 32G of space and 64G of memory" shows you are technologically inept (have you proof of this as your statement indicates?)
..$500 you gotta be kidding me I mean common every time a new iPhone comes out the lowest price is $200 and the highest is $300 and it's always been that way and I don't think they'll change it I also don't think I would pay half a grand for an iPhone5 I would rather buy the iPhone4 for half the money and it's still just as good but I mean at the most it may be $100 more then usual for a new iPhone because they are making it more like a computer but I mean they won't go to $500 because no one would buy it. But if they are making the screen scratch and shatter repelled I would defiantly buy it because that's what broke my last two iPhones! But over all I can't wait to see it when it comes out regardless of the price
wow. this has to be the least informative piece by the least informed person i've ever read. if you're going to write about technology, it might be a good idea to at least grasp the proper use of terminology. of course, even with proper vernacular, actual facts would still be worth more than idle speculation.
A well written article respectfully addresses both sides of the competition. Ridding the world of the lesser non-apple phones? Are you serious? There's nothing wrong with Android. Both iOS and Android offer features that fit peoples' needs differently. Personally, I like android better than iOS. I like using widgets and I think the notifications are much more efficient. But I respect the iPhone, too. I think it's great for people who want a simple smartphone. Bottom line: both operating systems are excellent.
Yes, I have all the iPhones so I'll be getting this one.
I was one of the first to get the iPhone 3GS and the 4.
I'll be checking with my apple store to be on the list.
I've been waiting for the IPad 2 also. I've been a apple fan for over 28 years. First saw them at the US Fastival in 83.
Never again will I fall prey to the bandwagon. This is the first time I've owned an iPhone and I'm hating it everyday. It limits everything I can do with a mobile phone. Being the noncoformist that I am, the iPhone has made me an unwilling servant. I was hoping I could get the Evo but since it wasn't available in my region, I've decided to settle for the iPhone, which is a grave mistake.
Haha, this is a crock. Comparing the new iPhone to the current Evo? The EVO crushes the current iphone, both stock and especially if you have the ability and knowledge to root and install custom roms. You mentioned Facetime on 3G? Well sir the EVO did that stock over 4g. The current iphone only support WiFi facetime.
Where is your write up and research on upcoming HTC models? I don't see it. So let's compare a phone that isn't out yet, to one that has been out for over a year? Then say, this is why it's going to change the world? Has HTC stopped making phones or something? Perhaps they are coming out with something new?
Dual core processors are already incorporated into the android scene. Tegra 2 chipsets are already rolling out.
Ladies and gents here is the truth. Apple will fail at this game. They will have their fanboys as always, but they will lose their dominate share of the cellular market. Here is why: Android is open source.
This means that you will have devs from HTC, Sony, Motorolla, Samsung, etc, all working on the Android OS to make it better. Whereas, apple will just have their own. So in essence, Android = lots of developers including third party, and iphone just their own. It's like the movie 300, the Spartans (Apple) put up a fight, but the Persians (Android) just had too many people in their army...
how much will it cost
Unless iPhone starts to allow adobe flash video content to be viewed I am going back to black berry
Can't wait for iPhone 5!
will i be able to use telstra on it?
FUNNY TO SEE SO MANY PEOPLE WITH SO MANY DIFFERENT OPINIONS ABOUT SO MANY DIFFERENT THINGS WHEN THERE IS "NO" HARD INFO ON THE SUBJECT.. ALL I CARE ABOUT IS WHEN THE 5 COMES OUT!!!!!
I can't wait to get my hands on the iPhone 5. Steve you are a genius!!! I really don't know why or how you can't make the bling bling I'm making with your over intellect then mine! Stupid AT&T...I can't upgrade until next year!
iPhones just keep getting better. Will be cool to see this when it finally ships.
Great review. I am so looking forward to the next iPhone for my upgrade.
This ain't no review... This ain't even a preview! This is pure speculation!
With a lengthy 18 month contract, ill be stuck with my iPhone 4 for some time. However i went from 3g straight to 4 and missed 3gs completely. I may just do the same with the iPhone5.
Bring on iPhone 6 hehe
Whoever wrote this review does not live in this world. He/She or both, is a perfect example of a stupid iSheep. S/He says that the iphone 5 will have better features than other Android and other phone! She doesn't even know what the features of iPhone 5 are, she is just dreaming! And most of the features that she wants on the iPhone 5 are already implemented by other phones like the GALAXY S 2. And s/he talks as if the iPhone 5 will be the first pone to get all those features. Stupid DUMB-ASS! There are phones with better hardware than iPhone 4. Go check out Galaxy S and Samsung Wave s8500. The iPhones lack so many things and still everyone just keeps boasting about it. Thats what happens when you haven't tried other phones. I have personally owned an iPhone 4, a Samsung Wave, HTC Desire and other phones. And the Wave beats them all!
The poll data adds up to 101%
Im going to buy a iphone 4 today. I had it and absolutly loved it. The 2 camera's were my favorite. Unfortunantly i went out one night and put it down to close out my tab and someone grabbed it and being so packed i didnt see who. I been using my old 3G since and i hate it. Most ppl look at me crazy complaining about an iphone but there is no comparison and it sucks to have to down grade. Anyway, If you are impatient like me you'll go ahead and buy an iphone 4 and then sell it and get ur money back when the iphone 5 comes out. At&t will buy it, but your better off selling it on Ebay to get ur full amount back. I just found out about the iphone 5 today and i cant wait!!
A couple of montha ago my dad and I were talking and I told him just waite Apple will come out with something better than the iPhone4 so I am going to waite, and now they are LOL. I am waiting for the 5 to come out to upgrade.
The girl writing this piece sounds like an idiot. Like she's just a huge iPhone fan but knows little of cell phones, carriers or competing devices. I'm an iPhone user on AT&T and I can tell you that I've never had a single service problem. Don't be fooled by the commercials. Verizon has more 3G coverage but AT&T's is faster. AT&T also has phone service in as many places as verizon. Where my Verizon friends have poor signal mine is good and vice versa.
But the silliest part of this "hub" was this quote "anyone who says Android based cell phones are going to be able to compete with the new iPhone 5 are completely delirious. They won't even come close to the capabilities offered by the new iPhone when it comes out". Really? Let's keep the facts straight. There are things Androids do that the iPhone 4 cannot. The iPhone 5 will be playing catch-up in some areas. Built in navigation is prety standard with many lesser phones already. Face time (not "video chat")over 4G is already possible with other phones and with the iPhone 4 it must be over wifi. "Much nicer overall body design"?? Huh? Have you seen it? No! Shatter resistant and scratch proof screen... Already available. Memory? Androids use a microSD card so choose your storage.
All this said, I wouldn't buy an android phone. I am waiting for the iPhone 5. I'm just saying, don't write silly articles that ignore the facts for the sake of being a fan. I'm a huge fan but I recognize the androids for what they are. Great pieces of tech... Just not nearly as intuitive as the iPhone (IMO).
I'm still on the 3GS and I like it. It would be great to upgrade too.
LOL! You one of those that sits in front of a PC and then ask, does this have GMAIL? LOL, I know your kind all too well. You are so loyal to the Apple brand that you are blinded by everything else around you. I am an Apple user myself, I use their computer systems for work and I do own an iphone. To sum up your write up, you pretty much worship the iphone and all else just sucks. *sigh* You are one of those that give me pure entertainment and at the same time can drive me insane. "Can this computer go on the internet? Ohh, well my Mac doesn't do that!" WTF!?!?!?
Just went to AT&T store today and talked about the iPhone 5,..I have a 3G and it sucks cause of the ISO 4 software. I Also looked at androids and windows phones. I work with people who swear by there droids,...which is fine,...but it's funny that they have to get off the phone to text or use the internet based apps or Internet. Love AT&T for being the only network to do that. And knowing that Verizon peps excited for the iPhone just won't be able to experience talk and text at the same time. So what if the iPhone 5 has a couple more bells and whistles that the 4 or 3. Praise the network for talk and text it's a beautiful thing to talk to your wife while texting your girlfriend......lol
wow, great info, thanks for sharing, I can't wait to have my hand on iphone5 :) thumbs up
How retarded are you people. There is going to be no iphone 5 this year...just a redesigned/mini iphone 4...idiots.
i heart u
So the iPhone 5 with it's Dual-Core GPU is going to be able to do stuff that Android phones can't? Hmmm, have you seen the Galaxy S2? It has a Quad-Core GPU, last time I checked, 4 is better then 2.
There is no guarantee that verizon will be included in the service prividers for the iphone 5, if it is even going to exist. I have my hopes that a 5th generation will come out but it is hard to say whether or not it will happen. On the note of the service providers though, Apple has maintained very exclusive rights with AT&T. Just because the iphone 4 came out for verizon doesn't mean that the 5th one will. and as for the Sprint network being able to get an iphone, Im sorry to say but i dont think that it will happen. AT&T and Verizon are just outcompeting them and it doesn't look like there is any hope. Keep your fingers crossed that Steve Jobs has some neat tricks up his sleeve.
thy cant stil beat the nokia 8310
This hub on so many levels i dont know where to begin.
1. It's not a review if you never seen the actual product and your just purely "Speculating".
2. This is biased as all hell. Why not tell people your writing an Iphone 5 bible and Steve Jobs is your god while your at it.
3. 4G is an absolute gimmick because nobody has the TRUE 4G technology other then SPRINT. Everyone else's 4g is just a server conversion with partial 4G qualities.
4. Are you kidding me did you just promote Jailbreaking. What are you like 13. Jailbreaking is not something everyone does and your ignorance is going to make amateurs do stupid things like frag their phones in attempting to do so.
5. Reading this article made everyone at least 2% dumber.
i love Face Off. great movie. love the article. thanks for the info
Should make them more durable and waterproof, can take 2 sim cards and can have a Bluetooth rubber keypad to dial off my steering wheel ideally !
Who is the very intelligent lady writing this article? Nobody can piss guys off like a tech savvy women ay? I love how the droid people get all defensive when they're about to be out done (again) by apple. I have the 3Gs 16 gig version of the iPhone. I passed on the iPhone 4 and I'm glad I did, because if iPhone 5 is all of what our brainy lil author says it is I'll be there with bells on. Although I won't leave ATT to get it, to be perfectly honest I've never had a problem my service. If I couldn't talk and google at the same time the earth would probably spin off into a different galaxy. Btw even metro pms err sorry pcs customers can talk and text but nobody can talk and go online except ATT. I know I know all you people that have other carriers are like it's not important to me, I never have the urge to talk and google. Yea right. Well thanks for the great article and I'll have to check you out more often ? ( oh sorry you droid people can't read that)
FYI.. For those who keep saying the iPhone 5 isn't coming out until 3 or so more years, well where have you losers been??? Haven't you noticed that it doesn't take that long for Apple to come out with a new generation?! Duh!
It's out this June 2011!!!
If you dont care for the iPhone then get out of this page!
If you love the iPhone then awesome! Get you a new iPhone 5!!!
jailbreaking has nothing to do with carriers, there's a difference between UNLOCKING and jailbreaking.
in any case, whether this phone is on a verizon, sprint, t-mobile, or AT&T cellular service, it will definitely be cracked (jailbroken) unless apple gets smart and removes restrictions on what apps you can place on the phone (requiring use of app store and what not)
I look forward to the iphone 5 and a more enhanced boxwave or [insert epic new company here] qwerty slide out keyboard that'll integrate a connection between board and phone opposed to charging both separetly... (i.e. like how the battery case is) plug into the plug to charge the unit ;)
Come On Apple I dare you...!
Personally I can't wait for the June/July 11 Apple event. Whatever it's spec (and only a few people on the planet know what might be actually coming) I am hoping Apple do it again and raise the bar and hopefully turn the market on its head. How??
Let's see, where are we now...? We have half a dozen mobile phone manufacturers competing to match and surpass Apple. But they will never be able to compete, as in reality, Apple are NOT phone manufacturers. They are a Computer Software giants. They are Software & Operating System specialists first and foremost.
On the other hand, Nokia, make great phones (simple but excellent quality handsets with excellent call quality). This is because they are a Telecoms giant.
But they have been struggling.. Why? because phone technology is basically stagnant. It has been for years. When Nokia tried to move away from this to compete with the rest of the market, they started slowly to get into smartphones using symbian etc and they eventually became unstuck in a technology they never specialised in, hence to compete and survive 10 years later, they teamed up with Microsoft, the other computer software giant on this planet.
You don't agree? Look at it this way? What does the iphone excel in? It is certainly NOT call quality...it's the platform and the OS. Those computer software elements that are so user-friendly. Smartphones were ahead of the iphone when it first got launched, but what little it did do, it did it so well. The winning formula for Apple was bringing this to us in a sleek, modern package way ahead of the traditional handset. It's only this last few years that he rest of the fraternity have caught up with touch screens etc. The key was the integration with a design that was to die for. (A Britsh design too btw).
HTC are likewise very wise and smart. As a hardware platform maker they experimented with OS, but it still didn't quite happen, so rather than suffer like Nokia they have made deals with Microsoft for example to embede their OS, mixing the best of their own OS with Mr Balmers. This again was bound to be successful, especially with HTC's innovative and well built designs. Results speak for themselves.
Samsung, Sharp, Sony and the other Far East Tech companies are floating in between Apple & HTC.
They produce Hardware, excellent screens and electronics. Their own phones are cheaper looking, less user friendly and try to compete, but they won't be able to for ever. Without Android they would be dead already. Samsung and Sharp are really VDU & display speacialists.
Sony particularly always tries to push the envelope with new file formats and standards and unlike BlueRay, don't really succeed (for example the DuoFlash Memstick against the Sandisk MicroSD) most of the time. They needed to make alliances like HTC did and they found it a bit easier to keep market share by diverifying, Audio, Gaming etc, otherwise they will be even more marginalised in this market the future.
Therefore how will Apple turn the market on it's head?
What I now actually want is a multimedia, always connected, wifi pocket device that also makes phone calls - not the other way around anymore...so perhaps Apple (in the absence of Mr SJ) will turn the corner and completely sideswipe the competition by changing tack? I hope so.
I want the device that will pay for my coffee, newspaper, and turnstile fee for the Underground (Metro) at a swipe, and then while travelling I will be able to get my email, play a few games, read a book or listen to music or watch a video. Of course we can do all this on our phones now to a point, but therein lies the issue.
The phonecall istelf cannot develop anymore. The other applications and the handset AROUND the phonecall is. So why bother with the smartphone pretense anymore?
With the advent of BT headsets you don't need the wires. The wired headsets limit the width. Without the form factor can move forwards further into flexible devices & displays properly.
Having a data tariff is essential, having a call tariff is nowadays secondary.
Suggestions to replace the iPhone monica? How about: the iCan?
Come on Apple, I dare you to give me what I really want by dropping the Telecom operator and making a "sim-less" multimedia, interactive device that can still make calls with! Roll on Face Chat!
j pass you're an idiot, sure it's not 4g... yet, however the capability is out there, it's not impossible to accomplish within the next 4-5 months, that aside who said they wouldn't be using SPRINT.
aside from that, you're retarded if you don't promote jailbreaking... jailbreaking isn't hacking, it's giving the users the ability to use their rightfully owned processing units to do much more then what's given by default
unless you're one of the fools who uses "jailbreaking" to download STOLEN/RIPPED apps off of official/pay-for mediums... in which case you're the 13 year old idiot.
These rumors are really getting big. I can only tell you that the iPhone 5 will be coming out some time in April. The iPhone 5 is going to be a very big hit. I think that it is goung to be the best one we've made by far.
Att iPhone 4 is already at least 3x faster than verizons.... I've compared
I feel bad for u suckers that got the iphone 4 u should of waited. There will be an iphone 5 no doubt.if u were smart u would get the thunderbolt like me n stick with a functional service like Verizon.
Zzzzzzzzz oh sorry I was just using my friends emo errrr I mean elmo dammit I mean evo and it bored me so bad I fell asleep. I had to keep hanging up to check my email, go online, browse music on iTunes zzzzzzzzz sorry I blacked out again. To the eloquent miss ciaokatherine it seems there's a few who have your back here, are you feelin the love?
i have the iphone 3GS and i have had no problems on the att network. i hope att gets the iphone 5. Verizon is over rated plus you can't surf the web and talk at the sametime.
I still have the 3G, I really want the 4, but it'll totally suck to get the 4 now and 4 months later the 4S or 5 comes out. I like all the gizmo's and NFC possibilities, but they do need put energy into the "phone call" quality, and bring that up to the level of the device itself. I know that's primarily the carriers issue, but I'm sure Apple has enough pull with ATT and Verizon to demand better, and get it.

why not just wait untill its actually shown to us by apple. and forget the bloody rumours.
nathan,uk, iphone 4 32gb gold edition
The i-phone is a beautiful thing. The touch screen works better than any other phone I have used to date and the quality of the construction is far better than any of my HTC phones and I will most likely buy one on release day. There is a but, and it is a big BUT, the I phone is very expensive when compared with faster higher spec android phones. The tariffs more expensive (do oranges et el have to use special apple friendly waves to carry its precious signals, I think not) , and you need to pay for most of the full apps unlike android apps. Its simple folks, the apple is a desirable fashion statement, it is a beautiful device but it is not the best phone (technically) . If you want a fashion accessory and peer approval you will probably buy one, it will compliment your jimmy choo’s , Armani suit and £100 hair do, but please don’t try to argue its somehow faster or technically superior because all the techy geeks (like me) will lol.
I was thinking bout getting the iPhone 4 from Verizon this week but after i read this I'll just wait for the iphone 5 to come out instead
Just about to change my iPhone 3 for the 4 but will wait a little linger now for the4 thanks :-)
This article is bullsh*t and all these iPhone-lovers are quite dumb if you all think that Android phones are nowhere near the technology of the so-called "revolutionary" iPhone, give me a break. There is the Motorola Atrix that is coming out with a dual-core processor. The Samsung Galaxy S2 has been in the making for the past several months now and that also is coming with a dual-core processor. I will never buy an iPhone because it will always lack what Android has nailed down. F*ck iPhone, Android is the way of the future. Step aside Apple, Android is taking it from here. Thanks for coming out and take a seat.
dude calm down. Why would you be reading this article if you hate apple so much?
Face recognition is easily avoided, just don't look at the iPhone 5 when you're using it!
Could you possibly write more unfounded, speculative, bullshit? Just curious.
I would like to see the design change on the look of the iPhone 5.
iPhone 4 is awesome but I like iPhone 3GS which is easy to hold in your palm better than other iPhones
farts
Questions:
Will it have flash or silverlight?
Will it have an open source OS for which I can write my own app?
Will it have "Free" Google Naviation?
Will it have 4.3" large screen?
Will it be both HDMI and DLNA enabled?
Will it have a free phone back service like Google?
If the answer to these questions is "NO", then I dont see the difference between IPhone 5 and its predecessors.
I'm going to get it just from your amazing literally skillfull sexy beautiful review, you awesome girl!!!!
I'm just gonna stick with my iPhone 3GS
so it wont be on vodafone or 02 or any other uk networks?
I've skipped the iPhone 4 so far as it sounded like it had too many faults. I don't want to get into that trap of having to renew my phone just because the manufacturer tells me to either. However the iPhone changed the way I worked and a few other things too! So I will see if the 5 is worth upgrading too, but I just might spend more time justifying an iPad for now :-)
Is orange going to have the iphone 5. does anyone know when its gonna be out.
How much will the iphone 5 cost without a contract
I did not like this article. Sounded like you were having an orgasm. Why did you have to put down the Evo and not other companies? Maybe because android is a large market and seen on most phones. I do agree that the iPhone is better but no need to put other companies who are trying to earn their pay. We already knew the information you provided which did not impress me. You need information that is new.
CAnt wait couldnt ge tiphone 4 due to no upgrade avalibe but by the time this one comes out it will be in my hands in no time....Yippie for me.
stop telling ppl what "u think" the i5 will have, instead come back in a couple of months when u have some solid facts. u could live inside the apple store n u still wont know what the new i5 will have. apple pays millions of dollars to keep info from leaking out n ur over here telling ppl "expected features". this article would of made more sense if u wrote about things YOU expect to see instead of trying to sound like a smart ass.
Verizon is NOT getting the IPhone 5. AT&T has a contract with Apple at the moment that states they cannot give the phone to any other carrier.
Hi I am the previous president. I love my 9 iPhone 4s and 2 iPhone 3GSs and 16 HTC EVO 4Gs. I love IOS and Android but i like IOS better. They have better apps and they aren't just loading the market with like 20 on each network like android. Make an iPhone 5 for me please. Send it Texas and why is McCain not in office?
Hi I am the best football player ever, now make me an iPhone 5 today and I'll give you $2000 for one iPhone and that doesn't include the contract.
Tom Brady you are not the best football player ever, actually you are but I am second best. Make me an iPhone 5 Apple and I will give you 9,000 including plan
i doupt the iphone will cost 500. i would say 300 for the lowest model is more realistic
Cool Iphone5 I love it it looks so cool write Tom brady
I know everyone is crazy over the iphone and the Android. All the technology of both phones are great!!! I would love to have an iphone. But . . . I just can't get past the cost of every little thing on the phone. Why buy a phone if it cost you 200 smackers or more just to use everything on it?!?!?!?! I love new techno gadgets!!! But can't seem to spend the money on all that!!! Sorry!
Everyone does realize this is clearly a joke article, yes?
i cant believe its come to this ...all of us awaiting techs like the messiah lol. i would like to see the iphone 5 but not going crazy. this is only the beginning...
Your article is really great. Now I can think to buy an iPhone.
Ey !
Well, when iPhone first came out was a unknown phone. I bought it because was the cooooolest phone. Even when was slow as hell, i was pimping anywhere. People kept on asking and complementing my iPhone. But when they came out with new version and
Another one and another one, I realized that it was better waiting for them to fix or improvet it. Now I've got iPhone 4 and compared to iPhone 1. It's a wow!!!!!!! I mean 1 didnt even have a camera (while cheapest phones did). I think that if ip5 is not very different from ip4. I'll just wait for apple to improve the iPhone and AT&T to improve themselves.
Peace!!
i wanted to buy an iPhone 4 and i still do cuz the iPhone 5 seems to take a long time to come out im not gonna sit here and wait i want a phone ! my dad suggesyed instead of buying an iPhone 4 but any other phone and wait for the iPhone 5 then buy it
is my dad right
Thanks for all the info i have a 3gs 16gb and was thinking of getting an iphone 4 but will definatly wait for the iphone 5 to come out i hope that they just dont take forever to come to South Africa
Tell you guys what iphone 10 is going to release sometime in the future. and it has cooler design, cooler function whatever you need they have it.
Come on what basis you base on about iphone 5?
14 hours talk with your girls another 10 to sleep?
i guess gossip/rumours i.e iphone5 is what you and your girls talking about.
Don't any of you die hard fans use Flash website then. How can an Apple mobile device compete with that one main feature missing. While I am at it how do you access a windows files server using VPN on an iPhone? Answer- You can't ! Happy posting lemmings
WTF!......you guys are insane .... the i phone 5 isn't real well even if it is the earliest smart date to release it would be around september 2013, if it comes out this year the marketing skills of apple have gone down to the standads of nintendo they're bringin out their third new ds model in less than two years WTF! Apple isn't that stupid like i said earliest should be september 2013
I have an iPhone 4 right now, and I agree the AT&T service is horrible.
If the iPhone 5 really does come out, I'll probably buy it for my boyfriend so he can use it for Metro PCS. He won't switch to any other service, so it works for him :)
Great hub!
Well now there are some interesting comments on here aren't there. I'm from a little country called england you may of heard of it.My wife told about the iPhone 5 the other day and she heard from a friend I was unsure if this was complete speculation but this hub has secured my belief that its real. Well done you for taking the time to write this.
i've read your post it is very interesting...i've also read a very nice one here....you can read more http://devicearea.com/2011/02/18/iphone-5-rummors-
What a great hub. Htc or iPhone? To each there own. But my preference is the iPhone and I'm really excited for the new version 5. I'm still on the 3gs due to my contract but I'm sure the 5 will be out in June/July like the rest have been. If anyone has any clue let me know. Mybe someone should ask apple for some info. Probably won't get any but you font know until you ask.
Just a quick question while I'm on I have my phone jailbroken and I'm trying to down load the update for version 4.1 and can't do it can anyone shed some light please?????
I probably will buy an iPhone 5 but hope I never meet you. You read like a total knoob.
I have the 3G and it's a piece of junk. I've updated the software each and every release but it still never works properly and is slow as dirt. Att sucks and I can't wait to drop them lime their calls drop me. I will get the I5 as the features of the iPhone I really like. I think I have a bad phone as I've seen others work well.
i love my iphone4! i hope im good for an upgrade when the 5 comes out. and i hope its on at&t still or ill be super pissed. i hate verizon it sucks ass! and they lie about their coverage cuz everywhere i didnt have coverage before, i have now with at&t so fuckit
http://tweetmobiles.blogspot.com/2011/02/apple-has
if you wanna see iphone 5 in picture
I was getting the I4 but not the first version. I was gonna if there were and complaints. But now with the Iphone5, I will be getting the Iphone5 this summer and not waiting for 6,7,8. lol
Thank for the info because you just may have saved my from purchasing the iphone 4! I'll have to stick with my i3 until then :(
I don't see the new iPhone 5 starting more than $199. 500 seems to be way too much considering the history of the iPhone
Thank for the info because you just may have saved my frompurchasing the iphone 4!
i love this
I don't think this is enough to throw the iPhone 4 I already have away and buy a new toy. Will probably wait for an iPhone 6 (or whatever it will be called) or a similar Android.

There is ZERO evidence of what the iPhone 5 will look like nor the features it will host. Creating a hub suggesting otherwise is lying to the public. The iPhone 4 mis-release was a huge embarrassment to Apple, and they wont be making the same mistake again. "The lowest model will come with 32G of space and 64G of memory" that does not even make sense. space is memory. And "HD Audio"? The human ear cannot even hear above 320kbps, so again, no sense made. Show your "sources" when posting some BS like this..............................
>>> For Kwazzy, your not making any sense. The human ear can not hear kbps (kilobytes per second). It senses frequency vibrations in cycles per second which is called Hertz. I guess you meant to say 320,000 Hz or 320 kHz. 32 Gb of space for the lowest model and 64 Gb of memory for the higher model makes sense to me. Bottom line is there are many great phones out there and there are only two reasons I would buy the IPhone 5 and these are the build quality of the phone itself compared to others and the ability to be able to locate the phone if it is lost by using MobileMe Find my Iphone. If any other phones can do this, let me know.
I cant wait 4 the iphone 5, ive been saving up for ages!
Apparently chicken...
i am bying the i phone 5 when it comes out carnt wait
I'm definitely buying the IP5 when it comes out. I've always been a fan but I had to switch over to the Epic due to At&t screwing me over. But now that Verizon carries the Iphone I will be making the change soon. I think the Iphone is by far the best cell phone on the market =-)
I doubt that the iPhone 5 will be anywhere around $500 dollars though, as it would stand alongside the price of the current iPhones and iPads at $200-250. WIll also wait for the actual Keynote address from Apple regarding specs on an iPhone 5, iPad II, or any Apple product. Leaks and hearsay, need release confirmation first... as it has shown in the past to change when released.
What's with the apostrophe in "i-phone's"?? i-phone's what, I might ask.
i think this post was helpful but i don't think it will cost that much
i'm in year4 and hopefully by the time i'm in year6 the iphone 5 it will be cheaper in australia. thank you for the review!!
What I want to see is stereo speakers. I would like the same quality sound both while using headphones and using the build in speakers.
Motorola already has a Android phone with a dual core cpu and high tech graphics. Sony will have one this year too. Apple is a little too late.
all i can say is WebOS FTW!
I have iPhone 3, in 2 wkd I can finally up grade to the 4,but if I get the 4, I bet u in a month or 2s time the 5 will come out, so wait or not, that is the question
apple has an extraordinary marketing strategy that trumps that of the other companies who offer other platforms such as android. But in terms of being technically superior? I dont think so...Android 4g dual processor is coming out in March....but noone really knows when the newest iphone will.
you are all idiots. apple is gearing the iphone5 to be cheaper by using shitty parts so they can be a competitor in other contries. it may be a total upgrade in features, but these new features will be powered by shit parts.
so is there actually going to be an iPhone 5 or what? this article has gotten my hopes up for one. but if they dont bring one out i will be so sad. can someone let me know if its all bullshit or if its for real. and if so when is a estimated date they will be bring them on in Australia
Wow...reading this hub just wasted 4.5 minutes of my life that I will never be able to recover. The HTC Evo sucks? Are you high? It's a beautiful piece of tech, as are many android phones. Just because some people prefer iPhone doesn't make everything else crap. I absolutely adore my android phone. I also love my iPad, upon which I type this comment.
There's no cause to slam competitor products. Android has it's merits. Not for you? Fine...enjoy your device of choice, but leave the snide, unfounded, ill-informed quips out of your apple centric pep rallies.
Oh, and by the way...most of these magical, amazing features you suggest the iPhone 5 will possess...already exist in android devices.
That was one of the worst hub's I've ever read. Your features listed exist in a lot of Nokia phones, and are really old. The iPhone 5 sounds like it will be as outdated as the iPhone 4 was when it was released. Apple needs to step up their game.
That's Outstanding.... Here I am sitting with my old iPhone 3GS thinking if I'll ever get-up and buy that new 4.0..... and now I can bypass it and get the upgrade this year. Hooray for Apple!
Thanks for sharing.
You don't know any of this for fact, yet you speak like you designed the phone yourself. This article, along with all the other ones like it, is just speculation.
Well, I can say that most of this is NOT true. Please be mindful that you don't know anything yet!
Jk that's not Steve jobs
The iPhone 17 I picked up this morning is awsome.
A most naively written article. The author thinks that she knows it all, but all that can be heard is a blind devotee yapping about the iPhone without even knowing what it packs. In fact iOS tech specs will never be revealed to its users, so Ms. Ciaocatherine can forget about enlightening anybody.
See what this wisegal has written -
"One of the biggest benefits of owning a new iPhone 5 is that it'll come with dual core processors that will make it load at super fast speeds" .. what speed? what processor family? unless it is anything less than a dual core cortex-A15, there is nothing extraordinary here. Also, optimal fabrication of A15s is possible with 28nm process only, and its atleast 1 year away from mass utilization. Dual core A9s, already here - Tegra2, Snapdragon MSM8260, Samsung Exynos, TI OMAP 4.. all present in Android phones.
"it will be incorporating even more powerful graphics chip cards" which one? Nvidia Geforce ULP is already kicking butt of the PowerVR GPU used in the iPhone. Samsung Galaxy S2 uses quad-core GPU. Apple guys are not going to license superior technology coz they believe in pocketing all the profits themselves. So suck on that.
"20 gigawatt gazillion megapixel already in the iPhone 4 wasn't enough" -- using superlatives in that meaningless way serves as a perfect indictment of the education system. Does the author even know that Steve Jobs himself has touted that the existing iPhone4 display packs the maximum concentration of pixels the human retina can assimilate? Pointless to spend more money in display R&D then.
"anyone who says Android based cell phones are going to be able to compete with the new iPhone 5 are completely delirious" -- the author herself appears delirious since the primary punch out of any smartphone comes from the Google services. Android has far superior integration to those as compared to any iPhone generation. And of course the Achilles heel that not even Mr. Jobs want to acknowledge- "Adobe Flash". HTML5 is here to stay but Flash wont be phased out in a year or two. Sorry iPhone fans, even though the iPhone is a fantastic piece of hardware, not all technologies being used on the web are dictated by Apple. Android 2.3 Gingerbread has native support for Flash 10.1
"The new iPhone 5 is expected to have Face Recognition Security so that you don't have to worry about other people stealing your phone and trying to use it" - Samsung Galaxy S2 running Gingerbread (Android 2.3) has it already. And that stealing faces part is laughable. What if someone takes your photograph and unlocks the phone with it? The better answer is definitely the fingerprint sensor offered on Motorola Atrix 4G (Android 2.2 Froyo)
"Much nicer overall body design of the phone. It's going to be even thinner and have a shiny black piece." The so called better design of iPhone4 led to AntennaGate. Apple were forced to resort to the cheap alternative of providing "free" iPhone cases to mitigate the issue. First thing, a lot of users want the phone to be straight out of the box. Considering modern scratch resistant screens (Gorilla glass if you will, present on a variety of devices, including the iPhone4, Galaxy S and S2, Atrix 4G, LG Optimus ......) this is not a problem and people should not be bothered with putting non-standard cases on their phones. Shiny black backside? Whats so great about that??
"Shatter Resistant and Scratch Resistant Screen" --already there, unless Apple decided to finally use the term "gorilla glass" to acknowledge Corning's technology.
"The lowest model will come with 32G of space and 64G of memory. I'll be able to store my whole computer on the lowest model of the iPhone 5. Yippeee for me." -- unless you are (still) running a computer model bought before the year 2004, I am afraid that your dreams are growing to be shattered. BTW, iPod classic already comes with 160GB storage? Have you been carrying 2 copies of your computer on that all these years?
"HD Audio - The quality of sound is going to be extra crisp." -- if the signal reception allows, that is. All smartphones have the same level of audio quality anyways, so there you go.. another piece of non-techno junk.
"Built In GPS - You'll never get lost or have to download one of those stupid GPS apps." -- Apple didnt purchase any GPS navigation software company, did they? If the author is talking about a GPS receiver, it was present even in Windows Mobile phones older than 2007. The software is already there, free of cost. Its called Google Maps.
You can be blissfully ignorant and keep waiting for your favourite version of your favourite phone. In the meantime, I will do some serious evaluations to decide which one of the Motorola Atrix or the Samsung Galaxy S2 will join my gadget list, in less than a month from now.
I recently ditched sprint for iPhone 4 w AT&T and I have no probs. the sprint guy said all companies are getting iphone before years end.. so far verizon did so it maybe true. with 4g network I'm not empressed. I had it with sprint. it would only work in certain areas ( hardly any) and I didn't notice an increase in speed. iPhone 4 rules !
the "battle" between apple and android isn't so much of a battle as it is a difference in preference. some people prefer htc, some prefer apple, some prefer motorola...
don't hate. just present your opinions. your article came off a little juvenile and rude, instead of being well-informed.
wow 4G Network.
I love my iPhone 5. It is pretty cool and better that iPhone 4.
Haha, u suck there are already three dual core android phones one of them even has 3D screen and 2 cameras at the back for 3D video capturing at 720p and 2D at 1080p!
The iPhone will never be better than android!

Bla, bla, bla.... Android cant compete... You would buy a lump of coal at 3 times normal cost if there was an apple logo on it and they called it iCoal
I can't wait to buy iphone5. When is out.....
Nice article...read this it will add some info to your post
You sound very uninformed. Stop saying the new iPhone will run a 4G network. There are no 4G networks in the US for it to run on! Verizon's LTE network is just getting started. Other carries are years behind.
Dual Core Processor? already done.
incorporating graphics card? already done
face recognition? already done
everything you just listed up there is already done.
and guess what? all those phones run on android.
try doing your research first you iphone slut. android owns. even WP7 owns iphone.
I agree with shamsul ...i phone is garbage.
and btw im pretty sure its not gonna come with 64gb of memory...they barley have that for fullsize desktop power house computers
This article was written from a apple fan boy! I could see you must of gotten paid from apple because as most people don't know that IPhone 4 1ghz processor was created from samsung so where do you think the IPhone 5 chip would come from this time? Qualcomm, samsung, Nividia, Texas instrument who knows? Apple gets their hardware from different companies, apple is working on a 7.8 billion manufacture deal with samsung hmmm I wonder why?
Apple needs to change it's whole strategy, the company is under alot of pressure from android so this article is funny to me. I been through 3 generation of iPhones don't get me wrong they are ok but not the best! I have a iPhone 4 and a evo they both even out on my opinion and the new dual core on the iPhone 5 well android will have it too
Omfg
i know apple will show us another surprising device with i phone5
I certainly hope the iphone 5 has more than what you described above. I mean the things you described above are nice, but are already available with one or the other manufacturer including dual core processors. If all it is going to have is the above mentioned list, then there is absolutely no point in waiting for the iphone 5. It will be just better to go get something else today which offers all of these features and will be much lighter on my budget.
Att's gonna trap most existing customers if they upgrade their current iphones. Most people like myself have been lucky to have the (old unlimited data plans) instead of the new Data Pro Plans limited to 2Gb's. Now if you have the old plan your gonna have to upgrade to the NEW 4G internet plans!. So overall they're gonna raise the prices and on top of that also limit your usage. Think about it. If your using 3-4 GB's a month like me. If you have 4G that's gonna double since your gonna be able to do more on att's data. I think att's Gonna Turn a little too green.
No android competition? All the new generation of android phones are the same as the iphone, whit the dual.core and all that stuff, why ppl talk s&%t without searching the real information (searcy galaxy s 2 for example
The reason people jailbreak there iphone was to make iphone break all the firewalls so that makes the iphone more flexible, it had non to do with AT&T network...
I am soooooooo looking forward to owning my very FIRST iPhone!!! I love my MacBookPro!!!! Apple is AWESOME!!!!
$500? =(
1. Android has had 4G for many months
2. Android already has dual-core
3. The LG Optimus 3D - the 3D phone to come with dual-core, dual-channel memory, and more.
4. Androids are a LOT cheaper
5. All the reasons someone jailbreaks an iDevice already are available on Android
6. Android has a variety of phones to select from
And finally, 7. Not everyone is a god damned Apple fag with their noses up Apple's asses waiting for the next thing to be released by their inconsiderate, closed monopoly.
if all those specs are really gonna be on the iphone, then i'll sure buy it 100%.... it's gonna be a kickass :D... thanks for the info :)
Settle down guys, it will be ages before the iPhone 5 comes out. I mean, they only just added Verizon as a carrier for iPhone 4, and the white iPhone 4 hasn't even been released yet!!
you are a douchebag! I am sure you have plenty of friends to talk to, thats why
You blog. I hope someone drops a hot steamy blog on your forehead!'Toolbag!
I own a iPhone 4 myself. And I love it, so do not even begin to call me an android fanboy, they both have their up sides. But as I won't mention the name, I run a tech blog myself, just for the sake of not starting a turf war, every single bit of what this girl is saying is speculation and I can almost 99% promise u that, the price for example $500? iPhone is either $199,299 on contract(16,32gb) and $599,$699 straight up so $500 is a stupid price and not accurate, as well their are already android phones dropping with dual core processors and as of yet iPhone has no reason to have one(even tho I believe it will myself) because it's software is about 2 years more mature than android, android already has 4g, and *cough* the EVO isn't even close to the best android phone available. As it currently stands morphine is releasing a phone this month that will have dual core nvidia tegra 2 processor, with each core running at 1ghz, same as the supposed new in iPhone 5, so to say it will be so much better is a longshot at beat. With all that said, I own both a android and a iPhone 4 and love iPhone for it's ease of use and overall fluidity, but I love android bc it has recently matures into a legitimate OS and can match anything the iPhone can, as well there are android phones on the market that can record 1080p video at 60fps, I could go on for days but I'll stop here. iPhone 5 will be a great phone but to say the best ever is dumb, at the rate smartphones are dropping these days there is a new champ almost daily, so it's a great phone, one of the best, but different strokes for different folks. I choose two strokes, android,and iOS
Like to see you teather your iphone without jailbreaking. android phones can do that out of the box, plus ever try and develop an iphone app? retarded apple thinks its a good idea to use their own brand of objective c, since everything over there has to be proprietary. Google atleast had the common sense to use java for android apps. but anyways you should probably consider reading a book, or go to school or something, because as it stands now your just embarrassing yourself.
Rocking review. I will wait for the iPhone 5 as I dont see any reason to go for the iPhone 4 now. iPad 2 seems to be launching as well in coming April. I would hope it comes at $500 price range. There are a lot of rumors around it, lets see what best can Apple give us with version 5.
Karan
damn i wish my mama would buy me an Iphone 5.
I'M DYING TO OWN ONE!
Yes I love it............
OK so she likes apple and its products but that doesn't that doesn't mean she has to bitch about android. If she hasn't noticed, THERE ARE ALREADY PHONES WITH DUAL CORE PROCESSORS(atrix 4g, droid bionic).
this sounds like a croc of shit, excuse my french. You are telling me that there its going to have dual core processor, be thinner (cannot see how battery would be bigger to hold more charge), and expect me to believe its battery life is going to run 7 hours of 4G network.Is going to be built basically indestructible This sounds like a dream phone, key word here "dream"
Obviously this is an intelligent woman writing this article and there's always a new iPhone out in the summer people . Sorry I'll even take my iPhone 3Gs over any android based phone and I'll take ATT over Verizon, ATT is way faster and I can talk and go online at the same time. Who's the chic who said metro pms is better than ATT? I think she played to many games of football without a helmet. Sorry honey but your delusional, I know several people that have metro, sure it's cheap but it's horrible.
The iPhone 5 on Verizon will also be able to surf the web while talking on the phone because of the 4g network, just like the HTC Thunderbolt will.
I was just researching the latest phones (on a Samsung Captivate which I bought six months ago) and I happened to find this enlightening article. Sounds like some pretty lofty expectations, or a bunch of crap that doesn't matter and/or can't be proven. The cracks about the android phones is particularly interesting considering the current android phones don' have any trouble competing with the iphones in the categories of speed, ease of use, and capability. It's just another case of sheep following the herd. Also, my phone didn't cost $500, nor did it cost $200. It was $79.00. Now you can get one for $49.00 at Walmart. Did I mention it has a 1 ghz processor, built in navigation, and the storage is expandable to 48 gb. I didn't buy an iphone just because all my buddies were. I did some research and made the decision to but the Captivate after trying out it and the iphone. The iphone may be a good phone, but that's no reason to run down the android phones. Especially from the perspective of some teenage (only assuming) girl that hasn't owned one of the latest android phones. So just to recap, you can just follow the herd like sheep to a slaughterhouse and buy whatever Apple is selling or do a little research and make an educated decision.
"The new iPhone 5 is expected to have Face Recognition Security so that you don't have to worry about other people stealing your phone and trying to use it... That is, unless they steal your face too."
Does this mean I am the only one who can use the phone? What if I wanted to lend the phone to my wife or borther or whoever? Will it have to recognize all the faces? This is just one flaw that I can see with this...
i'm really expecting new iphone5 releasing soon. but if there is one thing i want it to be, it would be the size of screen it will have. the size all iphones have is not that small enough, but compare to galluxy2, it's so small unless apple changes that.
Where is the option for YES I WOULD BUY THE IPHON 5 IF I HADN'T BOUGHT THE IPHONE 4 ALREADY THEN THE TWATS FROM APPLE BROUGHT OUT THE 5 2 MINUETS LATTER.
I just got an Ipone4 and need to learn it first, don't need the latest and greatest yet.
some completely unfounded claims here, such as the storage capacity and facial recognition, and even 4G.
Also Android not only competes with, but mostly exceeds iOS
its suppose to be a 1/3 size less then iPhone4
I might but an iPhone I have the new iPod touch 4g(this is what I am writing with just now)because my old Mobile Phone the LG cookie KP500 us quite slow any suggestions???
who ever wrote this article is an idiot...apple is a great company and all but the htc thunderbolt will be out months before iphone 5 and will have twice the power and storage capability...not too mention a fraction of price...and face recognition? u really excited for that? I have it on my computer and it blows It is the worst security feature you can have...
this iphone 4 is the best
For only 6 weeks and you are able to come up with an informative hub like this? this is really awesome and very encouraging. keep it up!
Great articel. I have a corporate Verizon account and was offered the iPhone 4 but after reading this. It is iPhone 5. Can not wait. I hope Apple has you on their payrol or atleast a bonus plan. lol
haha awesome hub, entertaining, unlike the other stupid articles i try to read on upcoming technology, thanks for the info! keep it up
why don't you talk about the iphone 10:)) it will be awsome. it has no screen, the image is projected in your brain =))
Will the iphone 5 allow me to make calls like my HTC does?
Actually from what I heard, iPhone 5 will not have 4G. I have also found most who work at the Apple store, aren't very knowledgeable. Those who fix the products are but those who sell the products aren't.
The reason iOS is a better OS than Android is due to Google's open app policy and allowing any company to make an Android phone.
Allowing any company to make an Android phone means the updates are at the digression of the company on a per phone basis instead of Google having full say. This means most Android phones only get 1-2 updates for the lifetime of the phone with a lot of Android phones dying with the same OS that came with their phone.
Having an open app policy is bad because anyone is allowed to make an app even a trojan app if they feel like it because no one has to approve of the app first. So you have trojan apps, as well as buggy apps that are from developers who have no intent on polishing the app and destroying the bugs. Most companies who release both an Android and iOS version, the iOS version is almost always better.
It's kind of ironic. People got pissed off with iPhone being so closed sourced and Apple's iron grip on the market. But because they have to approve all the apps, developers are forced to make good apps or they won't make it into the app store.
Also being the only company making the iPhone, it means the iPhone will get 2 years worth of updates for the lifetime of the phone.
Android was a great alternative when iPhone was an AT&T exclusive but anyone buying it now over iPhone are just cheap people who want a poor man's version of an iPhone without the premium costs. (You can get a cheap service like T-Mobile with Android, you can't with iPhone).
Thorpey said "Will the iphone 5 allow me to make calls like my HTC does?"
Erm, yeah, it's a phone innit, the clues in the name, iPHONE!!" - ffs
I am the bigest supporter of Apple products in my home so excited for the iPhone 5. I currently have the iPhone 4 with AT&T and I hate there service they suck balls! I have a blackberry with verizon and it's sad to sat my blackberry is not 3G and it gets better service than AT&T's service on the iPhone! And I know it's not the phone! You better believe I'm gonna cancel AT&T when the iPhone 5 is released hopefully to verizon! Theft are the best carriers ever! Thank you for all the info!
Thank you for the Hub, ciaokatherine! It's amazing to me how Apple keeps finding a way to keep the hype surrounding their products going. Solid products that their consumer buyers love, no doubt helps! It will be interesting to see what surprises are in store for the iPhone 5. As with the response you've received on this Hub, there will be more than a few people patiently waiting to find out!
I love the iPhone 4 I just wish a could put one my songs as a ring tone
And Bluetooth pics and music
iPhone is by far one of the most awesome device ever created by technology.Expensive, but people (including me) are crazy so they spend so much money for it wether to show it off or just to feel good having one.
I have the classic iPhone. Yeah, I know. It's high time I get a new one. I am waiting for a newer one (4G) to come out. Hoping the 'rumors' are true about iPhone 5 coming out. However, I was told that it would not be 4G, but 3G. I am curious, though. How were you able to obtain the info on what the new specs for iPhone 5 would be? From what I was told, AT&T does not have network to handle 4G. Their current network is good for 3G. Does anyone know more about this?
Sorry I should have made myself clearer. I 'had' an iphone 4 and I was unable to make calls on that... Will the iphone 5 allow me to make calls like my HTC does?
Is there a way to short cut this ordering process? I want my phone now...! Price really isn't all that important...;-)
Should be interesting to see exactly what this thing ends up looking like. I would probably upgrade if it had enough useful new features to make it worth the money.
I want the iphone 5 for sure...i hope it comes to verizon
talk about a biased review...
Smaller and thiner than iPhone4? I wonder where Apple will install the antena on it's iPhone5 without causing bad reception as it did to the 4. Embeds it into your ass? Haha
Android all the way people!
I am definitly not looking forward to the iPhone 5. So what it has HD audio and face to face video chat, so does the EVO and the Windows phone. Come on guys, lets all not forget how destructive the iPhone 4 was...from the security trouble, to having to wear a silly cover over it to get any service. Unfortunatly I am not an apple nor At&t fan, but I will tell you one thing, the lesser phone would be *cough cough* (iphone poor)
I have n opinion n thing and it threatens me when peeps differ n suff so I react w a anger response n I don't lik 2 type good cuz I'm a par of the txt gen and ur stoopid if u don't thnk tht ur opnin is my opnin is mine nd m? narcissism causez me 2 ramble pointlessly thnkng peeps will ak2alky rd ths nd stuff 4 real. C U at th mall bitches.
Wow that was actually fun.
For all the dumbass anti iPhone users, why are you looking this up If you don't like the apple iPhone or don't think it's coming out soon? Apple messed up on iPhone 4. So they are releasing iPhone 5. And I'm guess there will be the white option. They are saving to release the white iPhone 4 to take place of the iPhone 3GS now. And another guess is that the 32g will be 199 w/ 2yearcontract and 64 for 299 w/2yearcontact like how it is for the iPhone 4 now. Sounds pretty realistic. So all you non iPhone users. Go f yourself. :)
Even if you are going to buy an iphone 4 you should wait till 5 comes out so that iphone 4 will be cheaper.
So what is the difference between the iphone 4 and 5? I have a 3 and was thinking about upgrading, may wait, or not... because the features sound the same of the 4 and 5.
Wow sounds preaty cool......
I have the iphone 4 from verizon and is preaty cool thing i dont think ill get
The iphone 5 iam happyy with the 4th=)
I have an iPod 4th Gen I am using to help me wait for the new iPhone. The one big drawback of Apple devices (I think) is the control of sound. A volume control + and - should be added in, as continually going into video or audio section to turn sound up and down is such a drag. Two buttons on the front for up and down volume would be great.
I feed my droid x iphones for breakfast! You apple fans just lovehaving big brother telling you what you can and can't do! Android is gonna slaughter apple over and over again! So Fuck the faggy iphone ill use it as toilet paper
I have an 64GB iPod Touch and an HTC Evo. You know what's cool? My rooted Evo has a wifi tether app that my iPod can use (over a 4G connection) to access the internet and I find it AWFULLY interesting that it seems to get things faster than anyone I know's iPhone 4.
An android phone and an iOS mp3 device? I enjoy the best of both worlds.
HELP!! I need to learn some more. One thing no one talks about is hearing-aid capability. My sis loves her iPhone, but is very close to switching because she needs one that is hearing-aid compatible. Is the iPhone 5 going to be hearing-aid compatible?
would love to get 1 iphone 5~!. can't wait any longer! yo!
Iphones are for the week, kind of like religion.
what it's he smoking... I need some. Did you know you would be able to video chat in 3D with the iphone 6. I can't wait. You'll be able to teleport to the person your talking to with the iphone 7.
Did you know the Atrix is a dual core with a optional laptop dock.
You do know that the iPhone 4 already has a dual core processor right?
so, three generations down the line, when iphones are a whole four generations behind, you will be holding your brand new iphone 7 which will be as good as the LG Optimus 3D (MAYBE) but you will still be that douchey snooty guy who believes his piece of crap iphone is the greatest device ever gifted unto mankind.
And I, looking down on you as you squirm about in the muck of outdated technology and on AT&T's slowly dying network, I will continue to pity you then, as I do now.
well i hate to say it but... i will wait for the iphone 7 lmfao
Remember when iphone 4 didnt come out? So many phones wer better than iphone 3. Then, iphone4 came, and kicked ass. Android is pretty good, and android's phones
brainwashed little girl alert!
To damn expensive
I have got to upgrade from my 3GS. Can't wait for this to be released !
Ohhh u bet your sweet ... Im gonna buy the iphone!!! P.S.
check out my name. lol
Thanks for your sharing,hopefully the rear cover will become the plastic again
Well let's see I wonder what the press conference is going to look like when Steve Jobs gets up there is everything going to work. It is nice they gave up with the exclusive contract bullshit to AT&T. Now they just need to really work on the antenna crap and the flash stuff that should be their first priority.
Now on top of that what is in store for a new iPod touch are we going to see really any difference in that there is wondering. They have always seemed to amaze me with all this crud.
I've had the iPhone 3g (since summer of 2008) and was good about taking care of it. Since then, I've seen the 3gs and the 4 come out, but am trying my hardest to hold off until iPhone on the 4G network comes out. Heck, I have even replaced the cracked white back cover with a brand new black cover in hopes that the new iPhone comes out this summer...
What's the point with a phone that goes on the Internet when you can't use Flash ??
I have an iPhone 3Gs wich is a really good phone but Internet is limited due to Flash restrictions.
Also getting tired off paying over the odds for music from thieving iTunes
Iphone 4 is pure rubbish google ten reasons the iphone 4 is rubbish.An absolute steaming pile of horse manure!.Do not waste your hard earned cash on this junk.Go for android phone at least you can decide which apps you want to install like third party apps also you can stop them from accessing the internet running up your internet bills! unlike apples iphone you have complete freedom.You do not OWN your phone apple does.
I think it's gunna be a really cool phone and all, but that's just a little too much for me. On top of that, I like to have a different phone than everyone else... I just got an iPod 4 and thats as good as it's getting for me !! But I have to admit my friend Lexi has an iPhoe and I love it so...
Firstly, newer comments should be at the top! Secondly forget about the iphone5. All you have heard is peoples wet dreams about a magical phone that cannot possibly exist yet, especially for that price let alone the battery life expectancy. Come on people, wake up! If you want a very nice super fast user friendly phone then get the HTC hd7. It already has most of what you boast!
i like my Iphone 4 n now i want to see iphone5 hope it will come soon
ciao katherine, you seem to behind,
1. samsung already has the dual core (march 2011)
2. samsung has super AMOLED SCREEN 4.3 inches
3. samsung's galaxy 2 version also will be slimmer then the iphone 5.
4. then you have motorolla atrix, i can go on,
5 android smart phones have taken over the iphone.
24 % in sales to be exact.
apparantly there are iphones that are a third of the size... :/
thats pretty small.
What I don't get is if the Android fanboys think their phones are so great then why are they reading articles and posting comments about iPhones??? No life????? The openess of the OS truly is a stupid argument....IT's A FUCKING PHONE!!!!! If you have nothing better to do then give every alert a different sound then you need to get a life!!! HDMI on a phone is like putting tits on a bull....fucking useless. Oh and I love the talk about iPhone being behind the times....remember the new iPhone comes out once a year, a new android comes out every week or so. At least with an iPhone my phone us current for a year. With android a month after you buy it your phone is outdated!!!!!
Remember you know you're on top when everyone is trying to knock you down.
I love my iPhone 4 and the ONLY thing I'm a bit unhappy about is the non-expandable storage.
I have 28 days of music in iTunes and it's all on my Iphone but I want more... more.... more.. STORAGE. I don't want to transfer vids and pix off the fone (other than for back-up) I want them all at my finger-tips. I want more storage..more..more..more.
My IP4 works just fine, the camera works, the folders works, I don't care about vid conferencing.. I just want more storage and... better battery life... more..more ...more... :-)
wait, wait, wait... 500$$ are you freakin retarded?
I would like to disagree with some of ur speculation apple is acctually trying to minimize the size of the iPhone therefore it will cost less and it will only have small amounts of memory because onboard memory will no longer be necessary and it will cost under 500dllrs.
You people are soooo obsesed with these phones! I say as long as you can talk and text your fine. I mean look at me... I have a crappy lg view and have had it for 3 years now. Really people though get a life.
This is dumb. I bet less than half of the predictions made here are true.
I bought the 1st gen iPhone, then felt betrayed by the Lowered price and the weak 100 credit they offered the people who bought it when it went on sale. Those who bought the phone later got a 200 dollar credit. So I skipped the iPhone 3 & 3GS. Bought the iPhone 4. Will probably skip the iPhone 5 cuz they will come out with something better. Just like the iPad, thought about buying one, now they will be coming out with the iPad 2. Glad I did not buy the first iPad.
Hi, anyone know when the Iphone 5 will launch in Asia - Malaysia?
I planning to get iphone 4, but after reading blog & web, i not have to decide again whether to get iphone 4 or not...
i think the sales people just wanted in your pants... face recog. security while cool in thought... even if it had it theres going to be away to place it in recovery mode and bypass it as in ALL OF THE PREVIOUS PHONES.... and the "dual core" running on a 4g network well people wait at least 5mo b4 you buy.... (4g isnt really 4g yet...)
I'm sry but you know nothing about iphone.
iPhones suck. They dont stand a chance vs any android Idc what they put in the iPhone 5.
And second break resistant and scratch resistant screen? Um what did they make it out of? Diamonds? Ha your so gullible.
Okay third 64G isn't going to hold all your computers memory.
Fourth duel cores have been in phones for a while so nothing new.
And finally AT&Ts network is perfectly fine and is the best and I can prove that all day.
And verizons little chart of AT&Ts service is a lie. Because if it was true then y did anyone get the iPhone. Point proven.
The resion people jailbreak the iPhone is because they suck and they want to make the as close to an android as possible. Not because of the AT&T network.
This is why I hate blogs most of the info here is simply speculation and incorrect not to mention biased. The iPhone 5 will not be 500 on contract, no it hasn't been confirmed that iPhone 5 will be 4G on verizon, and the iPhone 5 will not have any capabilities that a similarly priced android phone would not also have. Do have any knowledge of cell phones or are you just an apple fan?
I'm an iPhone user and a cell phone sales consultant (I work with almost every carrier). I have to say, I was all about the iPhone 5 rumors, until I got my hands on the Motorola Atrix 4G today..
Check that phone out, talk about suh-weet. Also, a huge cause of jail broken iPhones isn't just on AT&Ts head, but also Apple. They are a more regulated and restricted brand of app market than when it comes to say Android or even the newly emerged Windows Zune market. iPhone rocks, but one often gets tired with the stingy and pricey Apple way of doing things. I mean, c'mon.. Angry Birds IS free on Android.
I can't deny my love for the iPhone though, it was my introduction to the smart phone world and I'm not quite sure I can fully separate from it, but man, that Atrix is slick :P
How reliable is your source?
Iphone 4 was nice although Apple products seem to be more of a fad now a days. 3 phones coming to Verizon this year that'll stomp Iphone are (1) HTC Thunderbolt, (2) LG Revolution, (3) Droid Bionic. These are all scheduled to be released this year although Motorola's Bionic is the only dual core out of the three. 2011 is the year for Android!
Vz that's no joke. The Atrix is releasing in a week or two and it's Dual Core. I've experienced the speed, it's amazing. I wasn't big on Android until recently, they are definitely sweeping in for the kill shot ha.
Or maybe Windows will be the sleeping giant in the cell phone world?
IPhones rule, droids drool. FUCK OFF ANDROID LOVERS. No one cares what you have to say. Just cuz you can't afford a awesome phone from apple doesn't mean you need to judge everything bad about the iphones. Droids phones are dumb, apple iPhone is easy to use, jailbreak and better quality.
Sadly I won't be buying an iPhone 5 as I went to Verizon as soon as they got the iPhone. I had to do it I had to get the unlimited data plan that they had who's to say they stop this plan shortly before the iPhone 5 would be released. I just couldn't take that chance & besides I always upgrade every third generation (I had the original, skipped the 3G, skipped the 3GS & got the iPhone 4) so at this rate I'll skip iPhones 5 & 6 & get 7 hopefully by that point I'll be able to tell my iPhone 7 to get the groceries, walk the dog, do my laundry & fight with my girlfriend for me lol.
Not to be too picky because not everyone is as technically inclined, but it always makes me chuckle when you see these supposed "geek" writers gets some simple things incorrect like pluralizing "Dual Core ProcessorS", whoa, iPhone5 is not only going to multi-cores but multi-processors too?! And the use of the phrase "Graphics Chip Cards", and thinking that the graphics processor onboard will help with still images? I say just continue with your regurgitated predictions and leave the real tech talk to those who actually know what they mean!
i amgree with yousa. you need to go learn a thing or two. android isnt just great because the power. but the use of the ram and the ability to integrate so easy with many devices across any platform. woohoo apple made 100 percent there own phone. who cares. my mytouch 4g runs circles around any iphone. oc'd to 1.7 ghz 768 mb ram and expandable up to 64 gigs hd. and has a better camera. and i have an app or could make one if i want to recognize my face to secure my phone. all that plus usability and the ability to freely develop apps and explore my phone with out apples finger in my ass is pretty amazing
i have iphone 3g is ok but soon my brithday then my dad give me iphone 4g really wow cool!!! again iphone 5g but i try see tpye. support att thann all internet
With the iPhone 5 release imminent, there is one slight issue for us UK users, no 4G network! I believe it is being auctioned off to the telecom networks in 2012/3.
I got the 3G S when O2 launched it, the phone is great, the network, rubbish, well, its okay if you live near a town or city. In rural Wales, forget it! -And I was sold the Phone on that network because O2 said I would have coverage where I lived... -doh!
It will be a nice bit of kit. Don't forget the RF Chip which will allow the phone to act as a payment card! (New Debit/Credit cards have such technologies).
Now, where's the concept of a receipt that can be transmitted via WiFi or bluetooth? - That would make things a lot cleaner/quicker.
Nice one (Anyone seen Face Off?) LOL
Larger screen would be great
Thank you so much for this... It's helped a ton! I'm defiantly getting the iPhone 5!!!
it is so super obvious that you and your "review" is a fake and nothing but advertisement.
This is great! I've been searching for stuff on the iPhone 5 and this took every webpage i've looked at, (AND MORE!) and compiled it into one! I'm definitly going to wait and get the iPhone 5 when it comes out!
Google has failed me at yet another pointless reading. OMG dual core and 4g?!?!
see tegra 2 and one of many 4g phones out. Nothing ground breaking here. This phone is being released so it doesn't get left behind in the 3g era. Which is a good decision imo, but its not much more then that.
Dont get me wrong, iphone's are good phones. They aren't godly tho.
quote "anyone who says Android based cell phones are going to be able to compete with the new iPhone 5 are completely delirious. They won't even come close to the capabilities offered by the new iPhone when it comes out."
Apple Fanboi/Fangrrl per chance?
Each manufacturer is trying to leapfrog over each other (e.g. iPad vs Xoom etc). Also please consider that iPhone is a hardware platform; iOS is the software that runs it. Android is also the OS, not the hardware, so for example Moto could come along with an equiv chipset and put Android on it (with some updates to the OS required I'm sure) and we're back to where we are today.
I think it's really exciting to see all these players trying to get the market lead, but i would also hope for subjective writing, not biased comments which make me think you're one of those that subscribe to the Church of Apple - and affects my perception of your credibility, know what i mean?
People always give too much attention on cell phone hardware specs. Most of people think that larger RAM size, more megapixel camera, higher bandwidth, etc will give more power therefore thinking that the device is superior than other devices. In my opinion, OS which runs on a device is just as important (if not more) as the device itself. iOS is by far most intuitive OS to use and it is very scalable OS. What Apple has done to iphone and iOS is truly amazing. I am very technical person and more and more I use iOS and Snow Leopard on a Mac, I come to appreciate UI design and integration that come with them. Those are something that Android and other smart phones will have tough time to catch up to.
I just wasted 5 minutes of my life reading your drivel. You obviously don't know what you're talking about and just wanted to get some attention. In fact, I'm ashamed that I'm spending even more time writing this comment. I assure you and everyone though, this is one blog/site I will never visit again!
This 'review' was hilarious, thank you for making me laugh.
I've heard that Android may have a teleportation app and t'ings which will make it the bestest.
...and I don't even use Android.
Thanks...I am with Verizon and was debating on going ahead and getting the iPhone 4 or waiting for the iPhone 5....your article helped me decide....Im waiting...Thanks again....
Lol nice review. I think all verizon customers should wait for the iphone 5!
what ru people talking about the atrix will easily beat the iphone 1-5
Alright guys, this is author is clearly an idiot.
I'll be the first to admit that I have an Ipod, and that I think Apple is a great company with very cool products. That being said, I will be purchasing a Droid Bionic this summer when my contract with verizon is available for an upgrade. Why? its just personal preference, based on research i've done about the droid bionic and through rumor sites like this.
So thats all well and good, but then I read this article, and i cant help but think, "WOW, I didnt know that holding an ipone to your ear for too long could make you stupid."
Seriously, This whole "Android wont come close" crap is ridiculous.
1. any facial scanning software on the iphone is guaranteed garbage, We're just not there yet with the technology guys sorry.
2. 4g video chat, yep, the droid bionic will have that when it gets released
3. A shiny black piece? what are you four?
4. There is no such thing as a shatter and scratch resistant screen, it just doesnt exist, you sound idiotic
5. Having built in memory is fine, the droid bionic will have the ability to put in micro sd cards for far greater memory possibilities.
6. Longer battery life? 14 hours is not a long time, its sad that you think that's good. Also, you don't have girlfriends, you might have one apple fan girl like yourself who is lesbian.
7.HD audio- Intel's idea, and n oone will notice
8. GPS? my LG dare from 2008 can do that easily, and I know for a fact that blackberries and other smartphones could long before that.
I'm not saying the Iphone is gonna be bad, i'm sure it'll be nice and sleek, but really, if you want to make an informed decision wait for real details then decide, this article is clearly garbage.
I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE IPHONE 5 TO GET HERE. MY HUSBAND JUST UPGRADED TO THE IPHONE 4 AND I WANT IT, BUT I'M GONNA HOLD OFF FOR THE 5. I TOLD HIM THAT MINE IS GONNA BE BETTER THAN HIS...LOL I AM SUPER EXCITED ABOUT IT
I think it is worth waiting!
Who cares about the iphone? Just an over priced phone. It is not going to be as revolutionary as you think. the Motorola Bionic is coming out in June and that has a dual-core processor as well. Who wants to deal with Apple's proprietary crap anyways?
You guys realize this is a joke right?
I'm waiting for the iPhone titanium X, coming out apparently late 2012
Apple will be changing manufacturers so the iPhone 5 will be $200 at the most
I think the only delirious one here is you. How could you say that the iPhone 5 is going to be the superior phone? As if it was going to be the one phone to rule them all. I know that it won't even stand a chance with the Thunderbolt. The iPhone 5 is moste likely going to be another crapy phone running on 3G. Don't tell all these people it's going to perform all these miraculous features, when it's not. That's why I'm done with iPhones and plan to move on to big boy phones.
One more thing how do you want to say something so smug like that about the Evo. Yeah it has crappy "Sprint" service, but compared to the iPhone 4. Actually no you can't compare the two because the iPhone 4 is a joke. Another thing is that the Android based phones are always more mature and serious then these cartoony iOS supported iPhones.
P.S. I'm using AT&T, and the service works great I don't know what your talking
about. I just can't wait for the HTC THUNDERBOLT, to set me free from this god awful iPhone.
I knew to be skeptical when reading this, because the FACT is only select Apple employees know what you're only guessing. Which brings me to the question: Where are you getting this information from, exactly? I see no references to any sources whatsoever. No "according to's" or "citing from's." The rest of the zombies reading this who are drooling at the article... well, there are coarse words for them - the same folks who would pool their money together to buy the Golden Gate Bridge from a homeless freak from SF.
Lol your waiting on a phone with a kickstand to set you free.... hahaha
I've been waiting for iPhone 7 for years, I'm going to keep waiting because it will be so much more powerful than your iphone 5. screw phones from other companies, they're not an option !!!!
Wow, IPhone owners are a different breed I guess. This page is a joke first of all, second the Iphone 5 would already be behind the curve with the specs that are mentioned when it is released. All other manufacturers that build "Android" phones will have the dual processors and indestructible cases. On top of that, 4g phones have been out for quite some time now.
You need to read up on the history of Apple, they always set themselves up for failure. Just look at the desktops, Windows corners the market because of Apple's control over "their" products.
I know for a fact that the iPhone 5 will be out this summer for verizon. And yes it will be 4G. Also you can surf and talk at the same time on it. Most likely data plans will increase in price. The thunderbolt will offer skype however that is actually an older software than FaceTime which the iPhone uses.
I use iphone 4 and i am not very satisfied with the features. I have been using iphone since fisrt gen. Honestly I use iphone only because i like the safari which is like computer like browser not like mobile. iphone doesn't have many features other simple phone has. I will point out one, something like file transfer. Suppose you want to transfer your contacts to your gps unit you cannot. There has been several apps come out by 3rd party which works with trouble. I used one of those first gen sony ericsson before iphone came out and file transfer worked flawlessly. I think many ppl use Iphone because of it's design and finishing but not featuures. Marketing plays a role too. Not to offend the iphone lovers, but i would say there are lots of phones out there that not too many ppl know.
when will the iphone be out
First of all there is nothing new on the iPhone 5 that android phones don't already have. The iPhone is a phone for followers. It has almost zero personalization and customization compared to android phones. Disspite what people say about the speed of the iPhones, android phones have always been faster and will always be faster. If one of this iPhone lovers would just do alittle research on other phones they would find all this out. Can't believe somebody thinks that apple is ahead of android in anything. Ever heard of widgets apple? Live wallpaper? Swype? I could go on. Apple hasn't been ahead of the curve since pinch to zoom on the first iPhone. Just been the same thing repeated since. Didnt even do video till the 3GS. The iPhone 5 will be no different. So please iphoners. Get your heads out of you a$$e$.
me too i want an iphone 7 OHHHHH
See definition of iphone haters at urbandictionary.com
There is no confirmation that there is going to even BE and iPhone 5 this summer first of all.
Secondly, this whole post makes no sense. Sprint and T-mobile are not even getting the iPhone. AT&T is the BEST network!
You do not know what you are talking about, sorry.
I have been using iPhone since it has been on offer by 02 network. In my opinion iPhone is the best mobile handset in the world easy to use and has so many useful features. I have I phone 3GS 32g, and was thinking of replacing it by iPhone 4, but I guess I'll stick to it for now and wait for iPhone 5 if it is going to be released in a year.
will it also cook and f**k my wife in the same time?
The phone might not but I can f**k her for you
No i will not be buying an iphone when it comes out. i still use a flipphone.
I'm guessing you people mean 3,5G?? my nokia E72 even has this :D and ur sH*tty apple doesn't??
The iphone is a great phone, but apple is just being dumb not to include flash... and the ability to connect to other brands..
Any idea on the CAMERA DETAILS?? As in how many megapixels does the iphone 5 contain and about its zoom (optical/didgital) and its flash??
this is looking like the best phone ever!!!
all those super new features and performance enhancing chips etc. but the iphone5 will be just like my iphone 4 it will fail to do all the simple things, even my daughter 10 phone can do.
bluetooth pictures t any other phone
delete a single call from the call log without deleting the whole log
transfer a video to the computer
+ many many more
but apple will continue to ignore and this little minor details and continue to add crap that isn't needed.
don't get me wrong I love the phone but apple do all the advanced features well and ignore all the simple details that everyone takes for granted on other pjones
Funny you made this article I have just finished my site on the iphone 5 review, I will definatly be buying it when it comes out I was soo close to buying the iPhone 4 but got put off when rumours started flying anyhow check out my review blog see what you think http://theiphone5review.com They need to release some pictures of it at least! or a few features for us all to see at the moment its all speculation we don't even know if they are bringing one out or not or if it is caleld the iPhone 5! Awwww I want to know so badly... :(
64G of memory. That's bullshit.
I'll buy iphone 5, if it cost me below $300 only.
I want iPhone 5!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*sigh* I don't really care about all the tech stuff!!
I want a white one
XD
hehehe... Care about it a little bit though. I don't want a white 4, if the 5 is coming.
Im waiting for the iphone 7, its going to have an i7 processor, 8 jiggawatts of memory, and a 50 tetrabyte harddrive. Main reason im waiting though is because SUPPOSEDLY it can also travel through time. If this is accurate you could potentially buy it in the future and travel back in time to give it to yourself now...ergo you would then be the first person with the Iphone 7, years before its actual launch!
Wow this guy who wrote this article must be an Apple insider! Oh wait if anyone paid any attention to the article besides just picking out key words such "iPhone5" then you missed how he obtained this information that he asked someone who works at an apple store! All of is claims at this point are just rumors, and as Steve Jobs knows rumors start tumors which is leading him to his grave. People who work at Apple stores have no inside information because Apple likes to keep its products in development as secretive as possible. You as how I know this? Because I have a friend who started up a tech company that develops apps for Apple and noticed a new device being tested at Apple that didn't have device name, just an ID number and were the first outsiders to break the news that the iPad was developed and being tested for release.
So with that said you sheep should just get an Android phone where you can actually watch flash videos, have more options to personalize your phone, and to get an actual life besides waiting to see what version of the next iPhone are coming out iPad, which by the way are the same devices that really haven't changed much and all look the same!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am not an apple fan but I do like their products, specially the longevity of them. (imacs,macs, ipods and Iphone)
iPhone sucks. I have used it, Androids, Blackberry and Palms for years and the Android is the way to go. I have the Evo right now and love it. iPhone 4 can't even come close. The iPhone 4 may be more powerful but there is already a duel core phone the Motorola Atrix which is out now and can do everything your saying the new iPhone 5 can do already. Apple is way to proprietary and they give you no options to customize your phone. Go Android!
The iPhone 4 wasn't groundbreaking for crap. It was such a disappointment. The motorola droid and droid x blew it the eff out of the water. To me, the iPhone 5 is the chance for redemption. I hope I'm not disappointed again..
If all stated above is true, it is likely I will buy an iPhone 5. However, that ultimately depends on what is available on the Android platform when I'm ready to make my purchase in January of 2012. I'm an Apple fan; I have 3 iPods, 2 Apple TVs, and a MacBook. However, my phone is a HTC Incredible, and your statement about Android phones is completely unfounded. More specifically, the Motorola Bionic will have the ability to do all you mentioned above, with the exception of facial recognition (dual-core processor and 4G included). Hence, I am not delirious; you are overly-dramatic, misinformed, or both.
You shall all bow down to me and pray for I am god. Mentioning any other competitor to Apple will get you a punishment of double castration.
Your god

umm well your wrong about the 4g. apple themselves said they will not go 4g for atleast 2 years when the 4g chips are smaller because they dont want to compromise the design or encrease the size. overall good but some of the features sound more like wants then actual rumers, ive been waiting for the iphone5 and researched everything i could and never have seen some of this
I am totally getting the iphone yeah i am so happy
Lol, Ground breaking eh? The So far the iphone 5 is bringing nothing new to the table. Everything else is being done by everyone else now. They better up the ante.
Richard double castration for you!!!

iphone 5 another way that apple is going to make millions off of selling crap

/Users/namdar/Desktop/iphone-5.jpg you want the iphone 5...thiss is how awesome it iss
Well in first I would like to thank yo Kath, I have been I great fan of iPhone for a while.
You short Article was a blow for me cz it made even more excited to get the vomit iPhone.
I didn't know that the iPhone 5 will come up with such awesome features, really Ty for your effort but don't take me wrong but your the type of girl I would love to go out. Ty and keep us update with more about it
Do you know if the iphone5 be available with an iphone upgrade? or will you have to pay the full price???
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay,awesome ,that's so great
When is the iPhone 5 coming out
Have used cell phones for over 25 years and I like iphones. Why I switched to an HTC Desire Z Android after 4 years with an iphone: I could not read 80% of my needed websites that are supported by Adobe Flash, or 50% of pictures sent by e-mail. Also, when travelling internationally, could not use any Apple gift cards purchased and could not return them either. I.E. if your phone is registered in the US and you travel to UK or Canada. The proprietary licensing by Apple, per area, is about as annoying as not being able to read websites or pictures because Apple and Adobe can not seem to strike a deal. Sad state of affairs. Love my HTC - no issues and tons of apps too. Wake up Apple.
If what you say is true, the iPhone 5 will not be coming to any carrier other than Verizon. If you research the American mobile networks, T-mobile, sprint and AT&T are no where near 4G speeds, regardless of advertising. Even Verizon is not technically 4G by FCC standards. Also, the iPhones have been coming with GPS preinstalled, but only set to work with preloaded Google Maps unless the end user jailbreaks the device for third party apps. Additionally, there is no way the iPhone 5 will have 64 GB of memory. the iPhone 4 has 512mb, the 3G had 256mb, and the original iPhone had a mere 128mb. Following that trend, having 64 GB is a long shot. even 4GB is a stretch for any mobile handset manufacturer, including apple.
Don't get me wrong, i love a rumor as much as anyone, but please sight your sources or at least authenticate your details. Otherwise these seem like fabrications.
hahahah ur stupid.....att network has nothing 2 do with jailbreakin...its apple not knowin how to make decent firewalls....att network problems is more with unlockin the phone not JIALBREAKIN so idk where u got that from and att doesnt have internet problems 10x better than verizons internet.....and my friend has a evo...amazin phone but jailbroken iphone is stil 100000000x better:)
Finding an exploit (flaw in code) which runs at the root level in order to execute unsigned code or dump you into a root shell is how it's acquired. You clearly don't know what a firewall is, or that network problems are completely unrelated to jailbreaking. You need to go to school, you made a fool out of yourself.
that was a crap read
random rant--pull it

CHECK IT OUT!!!
Apple always releases a new iPhone every late spring/early summer. I love Apple's OS. Very simple and intuitive. I actually like the 3gs feel better then the 4. Hoping for newer hardware and a bigger screen of 4".
Want reliable technology information? Check out Engadget and Slashgear websites!
www.Socialbugg.com
just to point out some of the points that are being made in this article mainly in the expected feature section video chat on 4g wait thats right that something android has already had for oh wait almost a year now and saying that video chat is on 4g not 3g iphone 4 only runs on wifi for video chat at android runs on 4g or wifi 3g isnt even in the equation anywhere when it comes to video chat not to mention the thunderbolt is video chat with skype so you can talk to anyone anywhere in the world while on 4g or wifi not only apple customers like the iphone and a dual core processor android has already shown phones with that and that doesnt mean anything the thunderbolt has the highest ratings in multiple speed test of any phone to come out in the us including those with dual core that have not come out yet the fact is that iphone has fallen behind the curve and cant keep up anymore the iphone 4 which was really the first model since the original to have a significant difference from the prior model has already out of date and people who still want them just because the have the name iphone on them and think that the steve jobs is the second coming
Awesome research! Can't wait to buy it!
..when we get it in sweden.. :P
"The lowest model will come with 32G of space and 64G of memory" - seriously? I agree with the first quoted spec, but 64GB of memory would make it a freaking Cray or something! :-p
Thanks for stealing this information from Clandestine
I like iPhone and i also believe that this iPhone5 will be cheaper and stronger than other iPhone
What about software updates? If the past has anything to go by iPhone 5 may be the last iPhone! (5 generations) Will Apple continue to release the updates???
i want an i phone 4
I will surely get one....
by the way mostly test apple products free and learn how from:
what will it cost with a 2 year plan????? $500.00 way too much with all the competition.........
REALLY PEOPLE THE IPHONE 5? What is so big about iphones anyway?m My girl has the 4 and she can't stand it. The things people do with a cell phone is just gettin to far outta hand this day and age. NO WOUNDER YOU YOUNG KIDS ARE AS DUMB AS YOU ARE...you spend to much time on your cell phones.
I hate all the crappy comments about iPhone's from 'android' users OMG google designed it a search engine??? not a multi million dollar computer company, the only reason people buy android phones and put iPhones down is that they cant afford one!!! haha losers.
I will get an iPhone. It has to be with T-Mobile, however. I'm not gonna go to AT&T (God forbid!) or Verizon just to get an iPhone. As soon as T-Mobile starts crying the iPhone, I am totally getting one.
The iPhone 5 all hype. The original iPhone was ground breaking, ill give u that. But, Android phones have all these capabilities and the ability to grow exponentially. I just got the evo shift from Sprint and it blows iPhones out of the water. came stock with 800mhz processor which was easily overclocked to 1.8ghz. Stable. There is no way I would ever buy an iPhone. Modding is easier. Importing is easier. The only thing from Apple I like is the ipod. And honestly I can do everything the ipod does on my Android phone. Even syncs with itunes wirelessly over my home network. Push a button and done. This isn't about hating. It's about facts. And the fact is the iPhone will be playing catch-up to Android unless they change their OS and allow easy customizing. I've jailbroken many iphones and rooted many Android phones and it takes less than half the time to root an Android phone as it takes to jailbreak an iPhone. Just facts folks. Don't get all butt-hurt cause your fad is fading. Apple is good for music production and the ipod. That's it.
I think that iPhone 5 is gonna be one of the most amazing gadgets of 2011 and 2012. With new innovations in technology and the things expected to come in the new iphone, it will surely change the way people look at phones and use it.
That's not a review.... Just some love letter of an Apple freak.... I don't like iPhones fir many reasons.... Non one has the right to control what apps and software I install on my machine... I want to increase the memory all i want, not be limited to 16 or 32... My Nokia N8 has a cam of 12 Mp, built-in memory of 32 Gb and a miniSD card of 32 Gb and and I visit sites that run flash no matter what the Apple ppl think... I am Android all the way. What would be fun us hacking the iPhone 5 and run Android on it :)
That was a completely partial review. Clearly you've allowed Apple's brainwashing to overcome you. simple girl.
If you honestly think Apple has ever offered anything "groundbreaking" since the iPod, I already know your too dumb to write a legitabite reviw of an iPhone5. I'm not a fan of any one company but [like ammo] I go for whomever offers the best bang for buck. Apple has been behind in almost every way since even the first iPhone came out. They release hardware that is overspecd and behind the times everytime. 5mp camera on the iphone4 is hardly anything to brag about OP. ONLY thing I would tip the hat to with apple is the screens. Whoever is developing their screens is top notch. Everything else is old news. Everytime apple has come out with a new product, my current phone at the time which is usually a year old by then has smashed it in every technical aspect except the screen. iphone5 will be no different i suspect.
The iPhone hasn't revolutionized anything since the 3G, The dual core processors will be on HTC and Motorola very soon. And ios will be the same icon only based UI controlled by people who will tell you what you can do with the phone. I don't hate the iphone, but really? By the time the iphone 5 comes out, the technology will already be implemented months before by the same phone maker you are bashing (HTC). And talking about iphone technology doesn't make you a uber geek, they are so simple my grandmother can use them. Love your iphone just don't bash other technology without some good facts. The HTC Evo is old and still burns iphones, and you don'y have to use a bumper to make a call :/
@Jardine, Do you know anything about computers and technology? Android is compiled from Linux, Google is a multi-million dollar software company, not just a search engine. They just programed it. BTW, Apple designed all their Operating Systems on Unix. They even had to borrow names from cisco systems (ios, iphone). I think windows owns them in computing market share.
this was very disappointing. i came hoping to learn more about the iphone 5 not have some girl drool over it. in stead of just saying something is superior, how about offering actual tech specs that compare to those of android phones. I thought about getting an iphone but you just made me realize that iphones are for girls who are tech illiterate, and that's fine. but the whole reason so many people dont like the iphone is it's lack of freedom and options. yes, sometimes simple is better but in terms of a someone who's looking for a phone to personalize and truly make their own, the iphone is not where it's at. There are plenty of other phones that are just as powerful, easy to use and more efficient with power using the android OS. There are a lot of very bad ones as well, it doesnt hurt to do a little bit of research. Everything is pretty much on the internet these days. You cant go wrong with a phone from samsung, and why do i bring up samsung? Because its samsung that makes the chips for your beloved iphone, but hey what do i know. i'm just another anonymous user, scouring for information.
Unfortunately, Telling people to wait for the 5 is kind of silly considering Verizon is not yet contracted for any future iPhones. There chances of getting the iPhone 5 are all riding on the sales of the iPhone 4. I had to flip out on Verizon because miraculously when I was going to upgrade to an iPhone my upgrade got pushed back. I flipped out my whole way to the president of customer service, and he said that Verizon won't get the iPhone 5 until next January. So, Don't hold out because chances are you're going to have to wait a year+ for Verizon to update their network and contract the phone.
I would just like to say thank you to the person that wrote this blog. It was witty and well thought out, anyone who is a loyal Apple customer and iPhone lover should appreciate this. I don't think it was intended for people to take this blog as 100% fact (although some idiots will), it's purely speculation based on how Apple has progressed each and every phone. It's a given they will be working with a 4g network given their release of selling rights to Verizon, and it's a given they will update everything to be bigger and badder, because that's what they do every single time they release a new item. That's kind of the point in a new release, isn't it? Improving a previous model. People need to stop being so serious, listen to what this lady has to say and then shut your mouth if you're just going to criticize her blog. If you don't like it, post your own blog with the 'facts'.
Sprint plans and 4G along with the Iphone is a POWERHOUSE that would set them apart from everyone. I hope it goes to Sprint. I am getting it wherever it goes, but I hope it's Sprint
haha biggest fanboy ever. It's too bad android has already came out with dual-core processor phones. But hey, apple fanboy's are lost in their own little world. :)
$500? Even with contract or without? Because the 4g(without contract) was $600 something and with contract, $270 something. $500 for a phone? Hmmm, not sure if it's worth it for a college guy myself. He he. Plus I wonder if we're able to jail break this one too. Ha ha.
s doesn't stand for smart , it stands for stupid.
further elaboration is not needed
Hmm sorry but this sounds like the writers "wish" list for the iPhone 5 lol
I have an android device and I love it. I like the iPhone 3GS a little better though. I like the old school design. Much rather have 3GS. And what is the point of 4g if mo one can get it? I have the evo shift and it's 4g capable and Ive tried 6 times all over the place to get 4g. Nothin. Besides, 4g will turn that 14 hours, into 7
agree with ^ it doesn't sound like any actual research has been done. For what its worth the scheduled release of spring 2011 has been pushed back because of supply shortages in the Chinese manufacturing plants most apple product has actually been pushed back with the exception of the new mac book
i am hoping that all the hype is not that....hype....the sound quality of the speakers is the one thing that turns my smile into a frown,..and HD sound would be like...AMAZING! So lets see what apple rolls out for us this year and hope they don't continue there stingy ways and keep all the tech for 2012 and the iPhone 6
I am definetly going to ge the ipone 5 I was thinking about getting the 4g but Im gonna just wait. Im so excited about iphone 5 and can't wait to get it.
when is it expected to come to uae
In sept 2011..
THE IPHONE 3GS WAS ONLY MADE BECAUSE THEY CALLED THE SECOND GENERATION IPHONE THE IPHONE 3G, IT WAS A LIE, SO THEY HAD TO DO SOMETHING TO CATCH UP AS IT WERE, SO THEY CALLED THE ACTUAL 3RD GEN THE 3G S... THERE WILL NEVER EVER BE ANOTHER 5GS OR 6GS OR 7GS ETC. YOU ARE STUPID MOFOS
I just want everyone to know that Androids eat Apple...
I just want everyone to know that Androids eat Apple...
"The lowest model will come with 32G of space and 64G of memory. I'll be able to store my whole computer on the lowest model of the iPhone 5."
Does she not know the difference between space and memory?
I wish the price was lower, so that everyone in world. Could own one.
I wish APPLE come out with a SMART PC-PHONE with screen size of atleast 6 inch DUAL SCREEN with HDMI connection and all the rumoured features of Iphone 5 soon
I believe people jailbreak because they want to use an iPhone on non ATT carrier. When I jailbroke my iPhone and selected to use other carrier than ATT, the reception went down 60%. Then, I jailbroke it one more time and selected ATT as the carrier. The reception went back up as the non jailbreak iPhone.
The IPhone 5 is going to have a faster processor that we can all agree on the rest are all speculations. Edan Aharony
I don't agree that the iPhone 5 is going to blow Droid phones out of the water. I've used both, and I like the Droid OS better. More intuitive interface. It used to be cool to be an Apple evangelist when the alternative was Microsoft or RIM. Apple was synonymous with innovation. It was mostly the apps which differentiated the iPhone. Not the same deal anymore with Google. Google is pretty awesome these days. 100,000+ apps available. (How many do you actually use?) Oh yeah, Droids support Flash too. The Droid OS is great. But, it's all about the apps, and they are available on the Droid phones as well as the iPhone. Apple no longer has any differentiating advantage. They do have brand loyalty obviously, but that is different.
This iphone five sounds awesome sooo... if you don't like it well hen you have got some problems my friend.
BYE LOSERS!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i dont know if ill get the iphone 5 it sounds pricy money doesnot grow on trees
What I need is a smart phone that can be sync "seemlessly" with my 3 home/business computer. A smart phone that can replace a full featured GPS on the road. A smart phone that allow me to control my computers when I'm out, so I can transfer files to the smart phone when needed. A smart phone that can record HD video for my precious moments on the go. A smart phone that can play an HD movie on streaming when I'm out, pause it, and continue to listen it exactly where it was on my big screen tv at home.
The iPhone gives me that. No complaints. Can't wait if it can gives me more!!
@Droiduser who needs flash these days. HTML5 is the future!
I seem to always be 1 generation behind with the iphone. I am with t mobile and I unlock all my iphones.
@Phone tech
Shut the fuck up the iphone is the greatest smart phone ever!
Notice how a droid is trying to be an iphone?
And jailbreaking doesnt give u droid ios or stuff it lets ur iphone be free for themes and free apps
And if at&t is so great, how come about 3/4 of the at&t costumers will switch cause the service is crap? Rite not the phone, its the service
And the iphone will always come out in june at the world wide apple meeting
Hope this clears stuff up and iphone 5 will have 4g on verizon jss :)
I love my iPhone 4 and so does my wife!! We'll deffinately be up grading to the iPhone 5 when it becomes available. Probably wait till next January though. It will probably have all the bugs worked out of it by then. GO TEAM IPHONE!!! DOWN WITH DROID!!!!!
im not sure wether to buy or not
Perhaps they will have the common sense not to make it out of glass this time.
idiot look at the specs of samsung galaxy s2. Samsung allready has a better phone than iphone 5 roumors!
u r stupid people
u r stupid people
awesome what happened to iphone 2 and 3
you're an idiot.
Well...we certainly don't have to guess at your opinion of AT&T and android phones...
I'm waiting for IPhone 5 but I doubt I'll buy it if it is offered for 500$. I'll rather get android power then.
I am on a business account with my family. There are 20 phones on this account. We have been with Verizon since 1994. When the iphone 4 came we all switched to AT&T 2 weeks later we all went back to Verizon. If you are okay using AT&T's shitty ads network be my guest. Now that Verizon has the iphone all I have to do is wait till September for the iphone 5.
Thank you for reviewing a product that hasn't been announced yet. Very helpful.
Wow just wow just reading through your hub and the comments I understand how little iphone users know about technology.
iPhone is a great phone but it is a simple smartphone doesn't have advance features like the Android phones.
If anyone knows anything about technology they are buying android as it is the way forward.
I don't think you understand the significance of the Android OS. You wait until the Android OS has been out for 4 years. The android OS is already competing very well against the ios stuff and it will only get better. Android can only get better because of its open platform. Apple will inevitably fall behind the curve soon enough.
I have an iPhone 4. I also had an iPhone 3G AND the original iPhone. I had a click wheel iPod and a nano. And you still made me hate your fanboy(girl) BS.
There are some awesome android phones out now and more coming down the pipeline that meet or exceed all the specs you reference. In many ways android is superior to iOS (notifications, multiple homescreens and widgets to name a few.)
I think you just convinced me to get an android phone.
I have the iPhone 4 and I love it. To take a sec and tell u that the iPhone 5 will not support face time over the 4g network because it uses too much data and not everyone has a unlimited
Plan and att does not offer it any more and if u try to get it like I did by talking your way into it with att will not work because the Corp office will have to review t first and u will get it if they say u can so at least for att will not offer FaceTime over the 4g network
Hey everyone!
Whether love or hate the iphone you absolutely need to watch this other review: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1d24sPhwSKs , it has even more infos on the new IP5!!!
I do not believe that the iphone 5 will cost more than the iphone 4. I am really hoping for an 8 megapixal camera in it to put an end to my Nikon. In my oppion apple is too bent on thin. The ipod touch would have had a camera a long time ago if apple wasn't so intent on making it as thin as a credit card. I wouldn't mind an ipod touch that is a little thicker but can do more. I want my website to have a comment page like this.
What an absolute joke.. Getting rid of non-iPhones... great english there, lucky the iphones have an integrated spell checker for cultists like yourself...
Revolutionising the Mobile world... Hardly..
Apple: "We are integrating video calls into our phone..."
Yeh good job in locking people in by allowing video calls ONLY to other iPhones..
Samsung are already manufacturing their dual-core processors for their Galaxy S 2 WHICH will be running at a faster frequency.
And funnily enough Samsung will be supplying Apple with their Graphics chips...
Wats that apple? Don't have the technology to produce your own mind blowing Graphics chips? That's too bad..
And did Samsung reject the offer for them to manufacture their Super AMOLED screens for the iPhone..
Oh yes they did.
Quote: "Also, anyone who says Android based cell phones are going to be able to compete with the new iPhone 5 are completely delirious. They won't even come close to the capabilities offered by the new iPhone when it comes out"... They are already producing units which have near exact specifications to the iPhone 5. And the open source structure of Android gives application developers and OS modders the freedom to manipulate their Android OS to their liking. Apple iPhone users get what they get, swing them a few updates here and there and walah, you have a cult bred.
The sooner you Apple fanboys/fangirls break out of the trance Apple have you in the better, because you are the people keeping Steve Jobs in a job.
My niece gets my perfect like new condition well loved 3GS when the i5 comes out. I don't know who is more excited!!!
i bought 4G i phone and i'll be honest:
4g is SHIT with horrible signal specially when i am using Skype,and i think 5G will be the same Shit,i am gonig to by 3GS again,it is much better than 4G.
I have liked every iPhone thus far and know iPhone 5 will not disappoint. It would be great it was 4G but I am hearing mixed rumors on that.
LOL Im runnin with the iphone 2g still.
The iPhone 5 looks very interesting. I do not think I am going to buy it this year, but I do plan on buying the iPhone 6, or whatever is going to come out after the iPhone 5. I am currently on a 2 year contract with Verizon, and at the same time, I am letting Verizon become used to the iPhone. Great Hub!
I what tha iPhone 5 on Sprint please ...
I love i phone I m realy happy to buy iphone 5
This was a good article and I love my iPhone products. But you say that. Android can compete, when every one know that when new phones come out, the other companies like Motorola and HTC and Samsung have to come out with something to compete with. This happens with anything like cars, tvs, phones, etc
Were u ironic?
how much
Not enough $$$ :(
when will iphone launch?
*hoping.. and hoping..
Completely Bogus..
Omg! the iPhone 5 will get everything the ev
Omg the IPhone 5 will get everything the Evo already has. Except the epic huge screen, the snapdragon CPU, the 8mpx dual led camera, 4g (not coming with the iPhone five) video chat still over wifi, and no dual core this time for ifails. Sorry fangirls, android is still better.
Ps. Sorry about the previous post, my peice of shit iPod touch decided to post it prematurely
I wanna see what u look like...post a pic. Hope you're as cute as funny an smart!
@James... You are stupid. They do NOT wait a minimum of 2-3 years. Just last year in 2009 came the iPhone 3GS. They wait only one year which is why the iPhone 4 came in 2010 then the iPhone 5 in 2011. YOU SIR ARE A RETARDED BUTT SUCKING COCK MUNCHER
Here are some Iphone 5 specs. No Flash support in the web browser, no usb mass storage mode, no microSD card slot and no divx/xvid support.
I wouldn't count on $500. They'll probably do the same thing they did with just about every other product. Just replace the old product with the new one and keeping the price the same. So more around $400. Not that it's that big of a deal but when your a student in school $100 bucks is useful. Not that students should be buying phones. But that refund money you just got back from school has to go somewhere right?
My friend works for a company called carephone warehouse and it comes out july 2011. And its going to be on a £45 plus plan a month
i want the iphone 5 sooooo bad n i avent even had the 3G or 4
Android can't compete? Search for Samsung Galaxy S II.
I'm so annoyed cause its really close to the end of my 2 year contract and do you think that the iPhone 5 will be out in England before April. Please please reply I really need to know thanks
People jailbreak their iPhones to go where? To even worse T-mobile lol, now that Verizon has the iPhone that's a thing of the past. I have Sprint & AT&T, whichever carrier gets the new iPhone first has me!
Oh the constant battle: Android vs. iOS. There isn't only one phone out there that suits each individual's needs better than another. I sell iPhones mostly to the older generation, as well as people who just like things simple and don't feel like learning anything new or just have been happy with their previous iPhone so they decide, why change. My oldest iphone customer is 86... It's a great bridge to technology for the less experienced... And suits the need for simplicity. For the most part, Apple is reliable so i respect that... Battery life on the 4 is ridiculous. I make mad commission selling their products and most all customers are happy. There are several topics that aren't correct in this hub, as previously stated (space, memory, megapixels,etc.). But mostly, anyone who knows anything about cellular network would know Verizon and AT&T rock it... Proven by numbers we have for internal use only. Simply put, they blow T-Mobile and crappy Sprint out of the water. Why do you think Apple chose to sell iPhone exclusively to AT&T then now Verizon? Also, I agree with the others in that most these specs are features already provided with Android... Unfortunately, it's true... Apple is behind on some things. A jailbroken iPhone is awesome but voids your warranty if u get caught... Android offers customization and programming without a penalty, not to mention flash finally (woohoo)... It really depends on the user considering what will be best for your next upgrade... I recommend researching then speaking with a knowledgeable rep to help you make your final decision on what would be best.
Btw... Being crazy and mean online isn't brave lol
Apple is awesome, and I personally have an Iphone 3GS... However....
IT NEEDS TO MAKE A CONTRACT WITH JAVA SO WE CAN GET FLASH ON OUR PHONES!
While it is great that you want to have a blog to brag about the iphone 5 (I know there are many of these blogs), it is also important to be objective. You can certainly have a preference for one over the other, but....... come on, to say that Android phone "can't come close to the capabilities offered by the new iPhone when it comes out." is such a simple comment. Where is the backup? Where are the facts? That comment alone turned me off to your blog. Listen, I am all apple at my office but it is possible that there are other products that just as good.
WOW JAMES YOUR AN IDIOT
"
you people talk much, there is no iphone5 coming u better buy iphone4 cos it takes minmum 2-3years before makin another one.he s not that stupid2make new instead of sellin first the 4th one its all about the benjamin!!!!!!!!!!!."
UM AN IPHONE HAS COME OUT EVERY YEAR FOR THE PAST FOUR YEARS.....SO WTF U TALKING ABOUT
@emma
Dont be dumb noone outside of inner circle at Apple know anything for sure....this article is ALL speculation...good and more then likely true...but regardless speculation
@evo owner
where do u get your info???NOONE KNOWS ANY OF THIS STUFF FOR SURE but REST ASSURED...iphone 5 will have 4g....second your crappy evo "4g" is not real 4 g....it does not measure to the speeds that are truly considered 4g...may 3.5 g....also....wait....ur evo is SOOO much better right? then why are you using ur ipod touch?!?! and it posted prematurely?? sounds like your fat fingers hit the wrong button.BTW YOUR VIDEO CHAT SUCKS!!! CANT EVEN SEE WHATS GOING ON....and JAILBREAK=NO WIFI REQUIRED FOR FACETIME....oh or i can just use skype....UNLIKE YOU....at least say something correct if your gonna hate!
most definitely not going to be $500, not even close
I will definitely buy the new iPhone 5 with AT&T instead of verizon because I am able to use my phone while browsing the Internet, whenever verizon have that feature their will definitely kill AT&T business. But now I am staying with AT&T and can't wait for the new phone.
When will I -phone have a PowerPoint projector built in?
I am now sad because you spelled über wrong.
I am now sad because you spelled über wrong.
Except that Android devices are already getting dual core processors, and have removable storage, and a display that is as good or better than apple's retina display. Android devices are the best thing to happen to the mobile market since the iPaq. It's finally forcing apple to use more current technology instead of dolling out moderate hardware upgrades year after year. And the ipad will finally have an external storage method, thanks to the Galaxy Tab, instead of ignoring 15 year old technology.
I am waiting for the HTC Thunderbolt 4G. Can't imagine any iphone touching this one.
HAHAHAHAHA iPhone is a joke Android has 3D phones with duel core and phones with dual core 1.2ghz phones iPhone will never win
Even through I have had an amazing HTC desire HD, I am still expecting iphone 5. I'll buy one when it comes out.
The Iphone is a rip off. I had one. It doesn't have adobe flash, and the specs that are soooo special, are in HTC phones already. I switched to a droid phone and it really makes iphone look like the garbage it is. Itunes ... rip off, on the android market, there is something similar, but it's 100% free.
Adobe Flash, does not slow down the loading of web pages... everything now loads.
GPS.. the orignial iphone had this, Droid phones come with turn by turn navigation by default.
True Multitasking on the droid.. unlike Iphone
SRS surround sound unlike Iphone
and dumb ass said video chat over 4g instead of 3g... umm iphone needs wifi for that.
Iphone is a rip off and garbage. had one, never going back. the only thing that blows droid phones out the water... is the hd recording on the iphone....THAT'S IT...it's a great gadget for all you looser who know nothing about technology, but droid.. REALLY ROCKS THE LIVING SHIT OUT OF APPLE
No Flash support in the web browser(standard on most Android phones), no usb mass storage mode(standard on most phones), no microSD card slot(again standard on most phones and no divx/xvid support(standard on most Samsung, HTC and LG phones).So if u want these specs buy an Android are if ur happy not to have these as standard go and buy an Iphone 5 and like Apple says if it's not on our phone you don't need it BULLSHIT!
What a dumb article and a waste of time reading it
I love iPhones as much as the next guy, maybe more, but why you have your own page on the technology section is beyond me. You seem to have no knowledge what so ever about technology. Everything you have written here is either nonsense or pure speculation, which brings up the question...why have you called this an iPhone 5 review?
You may have pestered employees at the Apple shop for half an hour but whatever they say will be pure speculation as well because they know little or nothing until it actually arrives in their store.
As I said, I'm a die hard Apple fan and wouldn't even consider an Android based phone but you cannot deny the fact that the latest Androids are more technologically advanced than iPhones and probably always will be ahead of iPhones. It's a matter of opinion, in the end.
In all honesty, this "review" is just you licking Steve Jobs ass VERY publicly.
Insane research of not known facts. all of those "new features that supposedly the iphone 5 will come with" are already being used in many android phones. so when the ihpone 5 come out with those you will find out that android is going to be using better ones as for the are in other level already so fast growing that no one can compit with that. sad to hear that the leading phone "iphone" is no more than a fantasy for people that live in the past. move on and catch up with technology before is too late. drop that iphone and get used to live walpapers, 4g, dualcores, 8mpxls cameras, 3d. now with android.
I don't understand why people talk bad about AT&T network. I have had service with all carriers and AT&T has been the best. Not only that but they know more about the iPhone since they are the ones that put the iPhone on the map. AT&T also has the better iPhone and their customer service is awesome. If the iPhone 5 come out this summer AT&T is the company you want to stick with. Verizon is not a customer friendly company like AT&T.
Everyone knows that apple is brilliant. But these future specs are completely ridiculous and pulled out of no where.
Integrated turn by turn would be amazing but will not happen because it would require the cooperation from Google. In case you guys don't know Apple and Google aren't exactly the best of friends lately. Why would Google just decide to hand its biggest competitor in the smart phone industry its biggest and honestly only advantage in phone capabilities.
Sprint and T-Mobile with never get the iPhone. Apple has always been all about being exclusive and special. It is not going to want to whore its phone out to every available carrier in the US. It is a big step for them to make it available on the CDMA Verizon, but one can also see how it was fueled by the carriers massive Android sales.
Battery life will not go up exponentially because the lithium Ion Battery tech is not advancing it has peaked. There are current studies and researches going on to provide better batteries such as nano and silicon based batteries but they are no where near feasible enough to be put in a consumer device.
In reality the new iPhone will be an iPhone 4 with slightly upgraded internals. I would even put money on the fact that it will be called the iPhone 4G (Hmmm sounds familiar) have a better processor, maybe more memory, and 4G capabilities.
I have an iPhone 3Gs right now and I love it. I am on the verge on switching to an Android platform when my contract expires. Considering phones like the Samsung Galaxy S2 and the Motorola Atrix 4G. Spec wise the iPhone is really going to have to step up its game to compete and keep pushing the benchmark in the smartphone industry. I wish to remain a loyal apple customer but I fear that they are losing their edge in the smart phone industry.
Are any of your speculations validated through any credible sources or are they all just opinions? Sound more like the latter of the 2 to me, but never the less the iPhone 5 will be awesome...
Right now I'm running an iPhone 3GS on T-mobile and it works great.
The only reason why I would move to a iPhone 5 would be if I can run it on T-mobile 4G speeds.
Apple, if you decide to run the iPhone on AT&T you loose the game, people hate AT&T and the customer service sucks.
how much is that in uk pounds?
im guessin that it will be over £450 right?
anyway
I love the Chinese Whispers/Grape-vine of specification claims!
I heard it has a 'lead to gold' transmute feature! Ooo and a HD Projector!
‘Won’t come close to Android Capabilities’? You’re living in a dream world mate.
LOL.
Poster is an idiot. All the technology and features listed in the "FUTURE" (yet unreleased) iphone 5 in this article supposedly worth $500.00 are already available and more with the Motorola ATRIX already available on ATT and coming soon to verizon. Verizon has the Droid Bionic which also bests most of these features.
haha, you are so rediculous! Hopefully noone from Apple sees this "review" because it is crap, unuseful crap!
Do you know if Verizon will offer it as soon as it comes out? or do you think AT&T will get it first as every other phone?
Just looking at a Blackberry Torch. It looks much better as I'm bored with my iPhone now.....
I think that the iPhone will be amazing I will be sure to get one when it comes out. I am also looking forward to definitely getting iPad 2 which is going to be great however I am really anoid about other companies copying apple especially with the iPad ( samsung tablet and the new blackberry play board thing )
Can't wait apple should be great ???
What ever Apple bring out, HTC will blow them away again and again and again and again and again and
again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again . . .
yay i'm so excited for the iPhone 5! Especially because my dad is giving me his iPhone so he can get the iPhone 5! yay i'll have my very own iPhone!
GIVE ME A BREAK! SMART PHONES ARE SUCH A WASTE OF MONEY. WHO THE HELL REALLY NEEDS ONE?! My 25$ month virgin mobile phone works just dandy. Its funny because i emailed my dad about college and he did not replay for 4 days! He said he was away!? YA RIGHT! what about that goddamn fucking iphone 4 you bought!
what a waste of money. Maybe all those thousands of dollars people spend for phones and SERVICE could go to taxxees to IMPROVE the life of people who have NOTHING! no wonder people have no $$$ in their 401k! save more goddamn it!
i hate smart phones
I know someone who is very high up the ladder for a uk mobile provider and he told me they are fully aware of the specs and release date, but as they have signed a non disclosure agreement with apple they cannot tell me anything, however they did hint that June would be the perfect time to think about upgrading from my 3GS :-)
What u lot gonna do when we can no longer afford electricity costs to charge your iPhones ?
And furthermore, if said attention seeking whore sleeps 10 hours a day, go get a sodding job you job dodging chav, cos otherwise I'm gonna come play beat the bitch
So like WHEN??
I'm sorry, but this is an awful, "Iphone 5 review" as there are no official released specs for it and everything here is based on opinion rather than fact.
"it'll come with dual core processors that will make it load at super fast speeds"
That's great, but so are the Android phones. So Apple isn't revolutionizing anything... just keeping up.
"Right now it looks like the new iPhone 5 will be running on a 4G network (instead of the usual 3G). That means that some of the most likely network carriers to get a plan under are Sprint, T-Mobile, and maybe AT&T and Verizon."
Where in the world did you get the idea that any companies other than AT&T and Verizon will have the iPhone available? Also, 4G is only in major cities right now and the service for 4G is scarce for both AT&T and Verizon... so you won't be receiving the benefits of 4G if you're about 90% of the population that will be getting one.
"one of the reasons behind the increase in Jailbreaks of the iPhone 4 was that AT&T's network had way too many problems with it"
Or how about the fact that the iPhone 4 wouldn't even make a phone call unless you "held it properly"
It looks like plenty of other technical savvy people have already ripped you a new one on here. Please do your research before jumping on the iPhone bandwagon and proclaiming everything else inferior.
By the way the EVO is not a lesser phone as it has:
It has a bigger screen
Higher resolution camera on front and back
Higher internet speeds
Don't need Wifi to use video chat
Replaceable battery and memory card
Fully customizable
Cheaper monthly bill
Just to rub it in, the company I work for is getting me an iPhone 5 as my work phone... maybe then I'll post a blog about how inferior the new amazing iPhone 5 is to my year old Droid X
Evo already has all of that except tha memory..... looks up memory cards
Evo already has all of that except tha memory..... looks up memory cards
is it true that the iphone 5 will NFC technology in it?
You ARE the typical Apple FanGirl/Boy,
Most notably, you never do you homework or make any attempt to validate your claims of iPhone superiority. There are already phones better than the iPhone4 (Droid Evo for example). And there there are phones announced that either meet or surpass all of predicted iPone 5 specs/features (Atrix).
@James Your a fricken idiot. the iPhone 3gs and iPhone 4 were less or very close to a year apart. The first Iphone came out what 4 years ago? Bro, your stupid just stick to your fricken evo that you think is soo cool and suck your dick. iPhone 5 will literraly rape your freaking evo so suck on that
Seriously I have an iPhone four and think apple is a good company but half the stuff in that review is complete bullshit. Really, 500 dollars? If apple did that no one would by it. Probaly the only true feature of the iPhone 5 will be better battery and more memory. I wonder how much apple paid you to write this.
I love Apple and I'm not a faker who owns an iPod shuffle and acts like they are huge Apple people but one thing i found was the iPhone 4 was a huge f*** up. The antenna problems made me skip that gen and now my 3GS sucks so I cant wait for the new one. I like the face recognition idea cause my friends jack my stuff all the time. They need that in the computers!
I love my Droid and honestly won't get the I Phone, especially not when it first comes out. I am one who used to always have the latest and greatest and found out many times that there are always bugs in the first model of the phones when they first come out. Most of the time a couple months later they release the new and improved with less bugs model. Then a couple months later another version and then at least one more software update. I waited about 6 months to get my Droid and haven't had a problem. Verizon is already offering me crazy deals on Iphone but not interested at the moment. I wish you luck with your new phone when you get it.
Apple is still thinking about using a dual core processor on their iPhone 5 while HTC and Samsung already releasing their MSM8x60 devices. I'm pretty sure by the time apple release iPhone 5, HTC, Samsung and Motorolla will be releasing the new Qualcomm QUADCORE featured devices!!!
Nevertheless, people will still buy the iPhone 5.. WHY? BECUASE ITS APPLE AND FOR SOMEREASON MOST PEOPLE START GETTING ORGASMS WHEN THE HERE "iPhone".
My suggestion is, if you so wanna use an iPhone, JALIBREAK IT!!! and screw our beloved Mr. Jobs's stupid hardly functioning iOS and get it to work right like a normal OS say Android or MeeGo or BADA or BREW or even our oldest mobile os Symbian which still is a better os than "iOS"
have fun fan boys!!

PS: for people who are really interested in buying a high end SMARTphone, Samsung Galaxy S II and HTC Thunderbolt are the latest and the top level additions at teh top level in this year's first quarter. Still did not hear anything from Motarolla or SonyEricsson regarding a similar level device. I'd rather go for HTCs as the new Sense 2.0 literally "kicksasses" and from wht i heard all the new devices now feature Android 2.3 Gingerbread!!!
IPHONE 7 COMING ON 2012..........THE MOST REVOLUTION PHONE. Unbelievable features.......Alerts you when you are in danger. THE SIXTH SENSE PHONE...............IPHONE 7
I've got an iPhone 4 and like it, but there are better phones on the market as far as hardware's concerned but my main love for it is down to the brilliance of it's GUI and the convenience of not having to install new software as I've been using iTunes with my iPod's for years. I've had other phones before and I'll have other phones, probably when I get bored of the iPhone. That said it always annoys me the lack of objectivity of Apple cult members. Even this chick goes on about face time over 4G rather than 3G, as if Apple invented video calling ...it's not even on 3G anyway! Not to mention ludicrous claims about screen resolution, mega pixles and talk time of the current model v the fantasy amounts they've just made up in their heads. Honestly the iPhone's a great phone but's it's not revolutionised a fucking things with the exception of it's integration platform and maybe interface design. I just never understand the need for bullshit from apple fan girls & boys, god it's almost like a cult.
Dual core processors on phones. Finally we'll be able to make phone calls and text at once!
"It's going to be even thinner and have a shiny black piece."
I love it. Very cheer leader'ish and non technical.. especially the bit about the "20 gigawatt gazillion megapixel" which is completely nonsensical. Hooray for someone with a sense of humor, I hope the phone comes out and smacks HTC in the face :)
i'll add a 100 bucks if they support adobe flash
You know what i am sick of, it's this constant battle between Windows/OSX and iPhone/Andriod etc.....it's utter bull! I work in I.T and they are both fantastic technologies in there own right - and its a personal choice and preference to what you like, i hate this "im not going to get an iPhone because i dont like Apple sh*t" - i have an iPhone 3GS and am very looking forward to the new iPhone 5 coming out, and to be honest with you guys dont listen to anything anyone says about whats in the operating system or device in the iPhone 5, apart from Steve Jobs himself! How far Steve and Bill have come is amazing. I wouldnt have a job if it wasnt for those two.
As a disclaimer, I own an iPhone so i should be biased, but i sell phones all day so I really can't be. There is already a phone with a dual core processor and "4G", and it's only $150. You're telling me apple is going to put a bunch of revolutionary shit that already exists, and it'll be more expensive? Thanks, but no thanks. By the way, the Evo (and the AT&T equivalent, the Inspire) is a better phone in almost every respect than the iPhone 4. Faster processor, bigger screen with better color, better camera, and they use 4G already, which you apple addicts are stuck waiting till June for.Android OS is CONSISTENTLY rated higher than iPhoneOS. If apple already owns your soul then the iPhone is probably the best fit for you, but do not kid yourself into thinking your phone is ultimate. There are better phones out there. If you can't accept that you need to get over yourself.
haha. i know many have already posted this but i find it funny to say it has 64G of memory. a better word would be storage young one. I would however believe 1GB of memory.
I can't even believe I wasted my time reading this speculative nonsense.
i hope that AT&T gets the IPHONE5 i have the IPHONE3G and i think it was better than the IPHONE4G but when i heard of IPHONE5 i feel inlove with it i think its going to be better so i hope AT&T gets this phone cause im gonna buy it
i will tell u i bet there is no iphone 5 it probz will be 4gs becouse tjere have not relised the wight ones yet
what a completely ridiculous article. Claiming that android devices won't be able to compete is a completely worthless statement. You are the kind of person that makes me not want apple at all; not because of their products, but because people like you will eat and drink anything that Steve Jobs talks about.
Not saying the new iphone won't be good... I'm just asking that you pop out of your bubble for a second and quit believing that just because it has the apple name it must be good.
You remind me of the people in this video
nav built in, finally it will meet what my desire could do a year ago.
u can put your hole pc on the 32GB? how much data will the crap iphone be compatable with. haha
i would comment but my battery is running ou
I really want the new iphone to be smaller. Like the size of the HTC Aria. So it can fit in my pocket more comfortably. I love the iPhone, its just huge.
But will it REALLY make us happy ?..............;)ILOVEMYIPHONEILOVEMYIPHONEILOVEMYIPHONEILOVEMYIPHONEILOVEMYIPHONEILOVEMYIPHONE.........KISSKISSKISSKISSKISSKISSKISSKISSKISSKISS.....was it good for you darling...No, ehhh i wasn't talking to you love, just emm emm this here thing...on emm..my Phone...sorta funny, that's all love....your the one i love..darling REALLY , and the kids of course...love them loads too i just gotta finish THIS REALLY IMPORTANT THING ON MY IPHONE before i pull my 10 year olds head outta the blender....................pfffff kids!...oh look!!! that's a new app.......GRRRRRWHINEEEEEEEEAHHHHHHHHHHHH
U literally could not have less of an idea wat ur talking about. I only kept reading this out of morbid curiousity. Face recognition? 64G of memory? Are u kidding? Do u even know eat that is? A customized Dell laptop with 8G is the most memory they offer and the comp runs u $2000. It's not possible to fit that memory into a phone and even if u could u would never even run enough shit to use all of it. Ur a lying plagiarizing bitch. Stop wasting everyones time.
Hahhahh hahhhhh 8 GB is the most memory they offer? WHAT! when did it suddenly become 1987, and a customized Dell laptop at that!..i don't know what 'eat that is' either ?
Less wine more brain !
I haven't read any of your stuff before - are you poking fun at the iPhone 5's "features"? Or are you serious in that these things are groundbreaking? Those are not revolutionary things.
At the end of the day Brent, we are in a technology revolution, iphones are being hacked as are everything you use on a today today basis, do you really think the technology is advancing and controlled by companies alone....there are very strong reasons why the companies have to release new software and hardrware...we hack them. That means new evolution designs they were holding back...just to make a buck.
in my humble opinion, there should be a iphone with a keyboard&touch-screen.
IPHONE 6 GUYS!!!! :) lol
also CNN said it will be coming out in april. :)
you all need to see this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FL7yD-0pqZg
i see now why many people hate apple. it's because of people like you that state a bunch of BS that's purely based on your ill opinions. I've used both Android and Apple products and while I do like Apple better, Android offers great products as well. This article sucks
the IPHONE 5 IS GOING TO HAVE A PROJECTOR!!! ANOTHER FEATURE
My old iPhone 3G shattered last october and since my AT&T Renewal is ready, I'll DEFINITELY be getting the iPhone 5, unless they decide to cut back on features which I've heard they might :-/
Everyone is so cool that has an iPhone I wish I was as cool as you but I can't be because I prefer Android and better phones not popularity
You idiots are not really smart are you? This is all rumors as the 4GS hasn't even come out yet. If they were to release the iPhone 5 now there would be law suits on the Verizon side. They just got the iPhone 4. As far as the specifications that were listed above, that is all wrong information; just rumors starting up again. There is no official word on an iPhone 5 from Apple Inc. it's just all talk.
hey all you retards ! Apple's CEO has terminal cancer.... unless you guys wanna just wait for apple's employees to figure out the genius Apple's CEO did ... don't count on iPhone 5 soon with newer features because the CEO for this amazing company is the one who came up with all a product external features .... from now on, don't go freaking out on new things but appreciate what he has done ! give his products time becuz unless you can magically poof all unused electronics out of this world we will live in a polluted place .

if the reviews are good after buying the iPhone5, I'll surely buy one too ????
June or July release date.
64GB memory
edge-to-edge screen
possibly thinner
possible sliding keyboard
nothing about HD sound
Nothing about improved processing power
Nothing about improved battery life
possibly cheaper than previous versions
The truth is that the new iPhone will not even be close to the features of the new Android phones. Read some more in the net about what is coming soon.
I hate to let everyone down but I am an apple technician and there will not be an iPhone 5 this year..its gonna be 2012 before it is released, due to manufacturing issues with the 4G networks with AT&T and Verizon. The only releases you will see this year from apple is the iPad 2((late april))and the late release of the white iPhone 4. Although the iPhone 5 is going to be out of this world.
Hey mr... CKE will there ever be a Apple Television? Because, if there's gonna be one, it'll probably everything that people would want (With wifi, keyboard and mouse, like a big computer/tv)
Yes an Apple TV is in the works. It will be priced at twice as much as a Samsung TV and the picture quality will not be half as good. But all the Apple fags will buy them so they can brag to their friends.
you're stupid. why would you want to rid the world of all non-iphones??
and the features that you mention, such as built in gps, has long been a standard in most phones already, and dual core processors are already available on some phone models, so by the time the iphone 5 comes out, there's probably going to be even faster processors. and voice chat over 4g network instead of slower 3g network, well that's obvious isn't it? and it goes the same for any voice chat 4g phone. and this face recognition security, well a hacker will be able to get into any phone, whether it has a lock code, fingerprint, or face recognition, so just take a lost phone to the right person and he or she will be able to get into it.
REAL improvements would be apple will stop being so anal and open up face time with NON apple phones, and allow 64 gbs of storage to be used as a portable HDD. and better yet, allow bluetooth transfer
Hey girl GREAT job on the info! Super-Useful, I'll most def be getting an iPhone 5!
1. Total iphone fangirl, havent even justified the reason you think they're better, and if you think we are fanguys because we have other phones, then you're clearly living in a complete biased bubble.
2. I Have an iphone, yes, it isnt great, its fairly basic, hasnt got a slide out keyboard which is handy, doesnt have anything like bbm, and gets signal in hardly any places.
3. Get some pictures, get some facts, and i'll consider this hub.
YOurs truly, Anonymous blogger
What about support for FLASH ? Normal Bluetooth ? Steve Jobs and Co - get a grip !
Awesome!!!
Those who voted that they hate iPhone's are those people walking around with Droids. =)
What's so bad about the AT&T network? I've had them fir 7 years now, 1 1/2 with my 3Gs and I dont seem to have any real problems. Yea sometimes it can be slow when im on the web but like with any other network, it just depends where I'm at. It is going to space and back right, can we give it a sec! 70-75% of the time I'm on WiFi anyway, at home, Starbuck. McDonald ect...
I have a few beefs with this article...
1) What are you basing your info on. It's all speculation, you haven't provided any links to your sources or leaked photos.
2) Other carriers have just as many issues as AT&T. Speed test have shown that Verizon is getting half the speed of AT&T. Not to mention that you can't use data on your phone and hold a conversation. That's a huge plus for AT&T. Sites like Gizmodo are saying to not purchase the Verizon iPhone unless you have to get a new phone.
Well, if I buy the iphone5 I hope iphone6 doesn't come out too soon! How much does it cost with 2 yrs contract?
How come the author never mentioned HOW the Iphone is better than as she said lesser phones (Android)
There was claims of so much research and yet i hear nothing! HaHa!
Iphone has no expandable memory and that facetime i think it is called that can only call other Iphones. How is that better?
I have had video chat on my HTC phone and can call ANYONE, not just HTC phones.
So as i look and look and look for a new phone to replace my aging dumbphone, and i say dumb because they are outdated 6 months later TOPS, i still dont see a reason to get an iphone. I am not a Mac hater so dont go there, im on my Macbook Pro right now, love it and would never buy a PC again. But i still dont get the cult following for these phones. I mean when they came out, they didnt have basic stuff that phones 10 years before had, no VIDEO? lol cmon
I really hope the new one is legit, i will consider getting it but the Android market has SOOOO many more apps and you can do SOOOO much more customization with those and even WinMo phones. Apple likes to have too much control over their products and I dont like that. Plus i travel to Europe all the time, so I have to leave this stupid phone at home 4 months of the year? Dumb dumb dumb dumb dummmmmb!
Androids are the best phones in the world, and apple is the worst company ever! The only thing that steve jobs does is make stuff look cool, anyone can do that! Android phones are the best ever! Oh, and Apple is sooooooooooooo over-rated, and way over-priced
See andrew b, I posted this
K not a bad article, however, you obviously have not used a good android phone. Android 2.2 does a lot more than apple can dream of already and i've been looking at specs of 3.3.
Apple could bring out a box of matches coupled to an onion call it I-shit and most of the apple fans would buy it.
I actually bought an iphone4 to replace my sony ericsson Xperia X10. I was sorely disappointed at the tiny screen poor still pic resolution. Tiny ram. Slow internet speed both on gprs and wifi. The battery life was nowhere near long enough for me. And on long calls phone would sometimes drop the call. Add to this that 99% of iphone apps are clones of each other and the majority have no function and are just joke programmes. The processor although claims its a 1ghz runs closer to 700 Mhz on benchmarks. I have after 2 weeks given up on my iphone 4 32Gb and replaced it with an HTC desire HD. Only fault i can find so far is the camera juts out of the back but as I am a normal person I bought a cover so its not a problem.
My pet hate.
When i first got my iphone (I bought it factory unlocked) and took it carefully out of the box. Waited patiently 8hrs for it to charge first time. Butchered my sim to fit it.
Only to find i had to download and install itunes and quicktime to activate my phone. Which took me over an hour.
Now most people who have bought a phone before like me do not expect to have to own a computer b4 being able to use it.
Add to that you must set up an itunes account now although you can set up itunes without a credit card, you cannot without a postcode, I currently live in lebanon and do not know my postcode, easy use my uk address, no phone detects that its not in uk so nearly 3 days went by before i could use the bloody thing.
Friends of mine with iphone 3 have found many apps no longer work, wait for hubbub to start when iphone 5 takes over and the iphone 4 users are screwed over next.
I digress my pet hate, No Flash. How can Apple claim its connectivity abilities when you cannot use Flash. I want my phone to be able to do everything whether i need it to or not.
Can anybody else figure out why this phone can practically do anything except 2 things with an iPhone.
No 1: You cant send just audio or attach it in a text.
No.2: y can i not customize my message tones, Email or otherwise.
Dont get me wrong i’ve had my 3Gs for 2 yrs now and i love it i just think these are things Apple may have overlooked in creating “perfection” in a device.
Definitely Still running 3GS contract is up in June '11 yahoo!!
Oh AT&T
Definitely Still running 3GS contract is up in June '11 yahoo!!
Oh AT&T
All i can say is it will blow the Droids off the market!
All i can say is it will blow the Droids off the market!
FAK TMO!!!! IM GOING TO VERIZON!!!I DONT CARE WHAT PHONE I HAVE JUST GET ME AWAY FROM TMO!!!!!!!!!!!!
lol face off. very funny. but srsly. im SOO getting the iPhone 5.
It definitely wont blow any of the Android products off the market. nVidia is going to be showcasing a quad-core processor later this year. Dual cores have already been released with android. iPhone is behind. I was actually planning on switching to Iphone this summer, but after reading some of the rumors, looks like Andy will be way ahead by the time iPhone5 is released. LG coming out with an Android based 3d phone with a 3d camera will be another smack in the face to Apple. Apple is no longer the innovative company they used to be. Android is putting the power in the hands of the people and in the hands of different companys. Too bad Apple wants to keep all of their coding to themselves. It's hurting their sells, and it will eventually cause them to lose the war against Google.
Crap article that just boasts of something that will be coming in future...
Look at Motorola Atrix which is already in the market and is way better than this....
you are clearly the one that is delusional. stop drinking the cool aid for one minute and wake up. It is a good phone, that is all.
I, an ipod owner and apple devotee, will NOT be purchasing an iphone 5. This is based on a number of reasons. Obviously the person who wrote this article is unaware of the capabilities what so ever of all other phones on the market. Yes, there is a dual core processor in it..which is completely unnecessary unless one plans to download movies on the go(which no cell phone has the battry to handle). The everpopular Android OS has blown the iphones seemingly perfect system out of the water. With an HD screen, extended battery life, full customization, and built in data features including an navigation system. Whoever your carrier is, even if the iphone 5 comes to it, look past the holster idea of the iphone and think that you look cool with it, just go Android.
WOW i5 is coming as if my Apple addiction couldn't get any worse!
Will the Dual Core Processors help Verizon to allow simultaneous talk & data? Please say yes as thats the last link holding me to AT&T's periodic dropped call service.
I don't even believe you have a girlfriend.
Hello everyone nice to see the speculation about the iphone 5. This phone allows me to control people. I have so much power. Power to apple.
you know i have been waiting and waiting for a the new iphone 5 i have a droid now and love it but ik i have always loved itunes so i wanted a iphone but i didnt like how the new iphone 4 looked i hated that box looking shape they had to them so i really hope that the new iphone 5 is not like it but yes i am most defently going to get the iphone 5 when it comes out no joke
I have a Droid .. the os sucks compared to the iPhones, glitchy as hell! Can't wait to get any iPhone on the Verizon network.
you cant video chat on 3G with the iPhone 4, you have to use Wi-Fi, where are you getting the information from? How do you know the new iPhone is gonna have all this? Are you Steve Jobs? Nope! didnt think so! thank you very much, peace out bitches....
A Wax, i sure hope the only thing keeping you from switching to verizon isnt the simultaneous voice and data. What about the data speeds? 68% faster with att, proven through 3rd parties. However when verizon launches the 4g network it will allow for simultaneous voice and data. Either way the iphone 5 will mostl likely just have a better processor and a little different design, i dont expect much more out of it then that, so i will probably just stick with the 4 until the 6 comes out. By then i hope there will be a mini hdmi input, flawless 4g network speeds/coverage/ dual core/expandable memory etc...
Very helpful article, but I especially love your sense of humor. You read my mind with the reference to Face Off.
the only thing true about this BS review is that the there will be an iphone 5 released.
other than that, everything is an assumption
if the review knows what that means.
nothing has been said about it from the company or representatives.
lets assume it has those features, you really think other phones wont have them in the future either?
its capitalism..and phones change every year.
you credited the apple store employeees LOL
those morons dont have a clue on how to even start up a mac.
they are as reliable as GeekSquad.
please if your source is comming from people getting paid closed to minimum wage, about a billion dollar product that hasnt even been announced, dont use it =P
Apple products are nice, but I wouldn't ever buy one because Apple is a lame company in my opinion. I'm not saying their devices aren't nice, because the iPhone is, but if you like to customize and tinker you have to hack the phone. And I read an article talking about how Apple is securing a patent that will allow them to disable your phone if they detect it's jailbroken. I'm all for foolproof products that your average non-tech person can't mess up if they try, and will always run great, but I want to be able to at least change my damn ring tone! I mean, should a "feature" of a $600 phone (iPhone 4) really have been you can use a custom background? Wow, just wow. So instead of having a phone that you can customize to the T, you instead basically lease the phone from Apple while paying full price for it. They have a great design, and do their job very well, but I will opt for the phone that lets me do anything to it, including mess it up if I do something stupid. I just like to experiment and customize.
iPhone 4 or 5, htc evo, android phone... who cares?!!! There's a thing we call "Personal Preference!" Both phones have flaws. And it depends on the needs and wants of a person. There's no need to talk smack about htc evo or other phones. I've used an iPhone, htc evo, even blackberries. Each have their own unique qualities. Get over it!
ciaokatherine: 32 gb and 64gb of memory is only for storage, not for RAM. If your computer only uses that little, then you must not do much with your computer. Hard drives are up to TB's now, which is 1,000GB. Specs wise, Apple's not that great, look at the new Motorola Atrix 4G. GPS built-in is hardware, you still need software. Seriously, do some research. Ask your tech guys before you post. This post sounds very airheaded. Nothing personal. Sorry.
Sorry to disappoint all of you. However there will be no iPhone 5. This has been decided today March 2nd and will be announced tomorrow to the public. Our apologies from everyone at Apple.
to you iphone noobs and trolls out there saying there wont be an iphone this year are stupid. because if you didnt notice they have made an new iphone every summer since the iphone has started. think back. ya. you know im right. so stop acting like you know what your talking about. they for sure would not just stopped making it for one year thinking that the iphone 4 will sell more because people always want more. look at me i want more i want the 5. and for this review i like the ideas. doubt that they will be on the new iphone but we can hope right. the face security thing is crap though it wouldn't work out well at all it would most likely just take forever. well thats all i got to say.
why did you say over $500 when everyone knows that ALL iPhones are $200 when they come out.
Your eyes must be brown because you are full of BS. I would take an android phone over iPhone 1 2 4 5 or 20
My Droid can beat up your iPhone
i wonder if the iphone 4 will be cheaper once the iphone 5 comes out.
This article is a biased joke. You are delirious one who doesn't know jack-shit.and for those of you wondering how Apple will get Flash, I know how, they just have a lot of pride to swallow first. Apple is not a respectable company because they respect no one else, but yet they are respected. How does a company like that earn respect? that's right, brainwashing.
completely biased post. I'm not bagging on iPhone don't get me wrong, they are awesome, but to dismiss other devices? come on it's a fair game! They both have ups and downs.
I believe this is a joke article, but here's the sad thing: people actually think this way. Apple has succeeded so much with their mobile devices because of the low education levels and their brainwashing techniques are working: get some people to absolutely love Apple, and then they will tell all of their friends, and be careful to get the gullable ones, OH and those who don't know anything about computer technology, OH and those with huge wallets of course, and then they go off on false adverts and then BOOM!! Apple cult. Or as we like to call, the general public.
Nothing in this article is guaranteed to be true. A lot of this has been predicted but Apple hasn't announced any of it. Also, there is no way that they will charge $500 for the iphone 5. It'll probably cost $200 like every other one.
I definitely agree that the iphone is better than the android and all other phones, and I don't think it's a big deal if an article says that. It's fair game to be opinionated and persuasive.
I have the iPhone 4 and it just doesn't fit the expectations It was honestly overrated and I plan on upgrading to iPhone 5 when it comes out but I hope it exceeds the expectations unlike the 4. I was really about to switch to the HTC evo bc my phone just pissed me off with the slow network...can only face time on WIFI (seriously? The Evo came out about the same time and it faced time on 3G...cmon apple keep up here) so the fact that the 5 can face time on 4G is super old bc evo already has that down.....and the moment I bought my phone the salesman says oh u should get a cover bc the atenna is inside the side of the phone an your fingers will block reception...what the heck...but I do admit I still will continue with apple I do like the apps better and the general look of the phone...hopefully service will improve on at&t bc did I mention I get dropped calls all the time...maybe it's just my luck then....has anyone heard of the windows phone from evo is that any good......
OMG I just wasted 30 secs of my life reading that article, then another 10 seconds posting this
hurry up pleaseeee.... and don't forget to put led notification in front.
wow. just wow. in my possession currently are 3 iphone 4's a samsung galaxy s i-9000gt and a HTC Desire HD.
In order of amazing it goes, Samsung Galaxy S then the HTC Desire HD.
The iPhones are TERRIBLE.
IOS is 200% worse than Android.
I am not a fan boy of android.
I have a macbook pro, several ipods, including one of the first models, if anything i am an apple fanboy, but i-phones and the behind the latests phones, even the new Motorola Atrix beats the rumoured iphone 5 specs.
the fanboy/girl's that love iphones are ridiculous, the whole iphone "phenomenon" is ridiculous, they are TERRIBLE phones.
JUST BECAUSE THEY'RE APPLE DOESN'T MAKE THEM AMAZING.
In conclusion iPhones are shit.
Have a nice day.
BS article.
64 gigs of memory? of course you mean hd space and not ram---that would just be idiotic
Please will you let me know re the following issues i hope they have corrected:
1. When taking a picture: will the button not be on the screen, this is most frustrating when taking one yourself, of which we all do
2. Google maps, talk to you like a GPS, and when searching directions to be able to email that to someone (cos if they dont have a bb or iphone to get a shared location, how can one send those directions without having to type it all out)
... thats all for now (i know there more just cant think of them)
I got an iPhone 5 and it is just like the previous one!!! (I am one of the pre sales users to check if the phone works properly they don't want any more goof ups after the anttena issue) oh yeah it doesnt have any of the features mentioned by her :(
im not gonna buy one as i think apple will just release number 6 18 months after this one and make it obsolete.
Remember when people were excited for new technology because it bettered something. And wasn't just to make it quicker to facebook.
Well , the view of the passage is totally correct ,your details is really reasonable and you guy give us valuable informative post, I totally agree the standpoint of upstairs. I often surfing on this forum when I m free and I find there are so much good information we can learn in this forum christian louboutins pumps for sale
Your eyes must be brown because you are full of BS. I would take an android phone over iPhone 1 2 4 5 or 20
My Droid can beat up your iPhone
For the morons who are saying it's to soon for an iPhone5, if you recall, apple releases a new iPhone model almost every year.
On other comments, yes, there are other phones that can compete with the iPhone, but for myself, I'll always be a fan of apple and will continue to buy the iPhone due to ease of use, beautiful construction, and there will always be support, and updates for the iPhone unlike so many others that will just fade away and be a memory.
we are in a recension y'know... i would be getting one but i cant afford it! Well i could but at the price it will be i just cant justify spenind that amound of cash when i already have an iphone that does most of the things this new one will do...ill have to stick with my 3gs.... ill get the iphone 6, then you'll all be sorry!
Yea who ever wrote this is real smart 64G of memory really, not even a computer holds that much. Get your facts right. By the way I own a Evo. Remember DROID DOES what iCant.
I think the iPhone 5 is going to be expensive, so maybe I'll wait until it comes out and see if there is a discount on the iPhone 4.
I think everyone needs to calm down and realise your all getting hot and heavy about a piece of technology. I am an Iphone user and have been since the 3g came out. They are admittedly great phones, music players, video players, game systems, web browsers and in my case car navigation but at the end of the day in a piece of metal.
I recently went abroad for a year and decided to carry just a simply phone with me so I didnt become a target to rob, it was an old nokia of mine and nothing special. it did its job and guess what..... the world didnt end!!
android phones are great also, they do exactly the same and they do have a brighter future. The problem they will face is the apple phenomenon that all apple owners are now too comfortable with their products and would rather shout and scream abuse out of fear that something else might be better, than to accept it. they dont even have to give it ago, just be quiet and go with the flow.
Remember all you apple crazies, without healthy competition from systems like android, apple would have no reason to push the button because you would all buy the same re-packaged gizmo year-in year-out and you know it.
so calm down, less swearing and lets just enjoy the fact that a decade ago WAP was revolutionary, face-time is no time compared to jumping in your car and actually going to give your family a hug and no matter who or what is best, we are all damn lucky to live in such an exciting technological age.

My computer has a 1 TB harddrive. Which if you didn't know is 16x larger then a 64gb Harddrive that you claim doesn't exist in computers. Get YOUR facts right.
when is i phone 4 is releasing in india,and the price?
When is this damn thing coming out?! I need it in my life!
(Apple) idont have:
-Have open development
-Have HDMI out
-Have widgets
...-Have homescreens
-Have drop resistent material
-Have Flash support
-Have java support
-Have divx/xvid/dvixHD support
-Have features ipod touch doesn't have
-Have no dropping calls problems
-Have a nice OS
-Have a big screen
-Have out of the box support for basics
-Have video chat on 3g or 4g (even with Verizon)
-Have faster speed than Droids
-Free simplistic accessories
-3D capabilities such as Android
-1080p Resoulutin (have to buy a cheap doc station for that)
-Multi-task w/ graphing and work word
- SD media card input/output
I bet it still wont have a flash player, just like the new Ipad. I dont know what Apple is afraid of...
i think it's hilarious what people will go through to have the latest gadget. and i love that apple releases new products almost annually so everything becomes antiquated in no time. consequently off go the uber-consumers to spend more of their money to buy something they don't really need. i can spot those types a mile away and i just laugh. you keep spending/working. i'll be on vacation soaking up the sun.
@apple-royally-sux
it depends on what you want. eg. i want a good camera and a good touch screen. And a pretty good looking phone. also i like it to be nice and slim.
Some of the features you have mentioned you can do, you just have to connect it up to itunes.also if you had extra things like HDMI out and an sd card then it willmake the phone bulky. the iphone is a perfect size & they are improving the flash and java.
so they are perfect for the people who like them!
Honestly, if you were as "geeky" as you think you are and if you were writing a proper review, this page wouldn't be full of drool and trash-the-opposition talk. Just get off your soap box and do a PROPER review, I gained more insight reading the comments than I did reading your drivel. Yeah yeah, we get it, you like apple, you want to fuck Steve jobs- but didnt I click on a link to get iPhone 5 information, not a page of WANK? get over yourself love.

nerds
thanks for the info, it was rly cool
now i know to wiat :) thanks alot
@Tyler
Dude. 64g of memory? thats different that HDD space. i could pick up a 2tb hard drive for like, 100 bucks maybe?
But 64g of memory? thats insane. Memory is used for processing shit. like, i have 8g of memory in my computer, and never run out....
But in another case, i love how the apple the ciaokatherine person first accuses that Droid users are 'Envious'. Some may be, and some of us just want to know some of the iPhone 5 rumors. like, im interested in just the rumors about it. But after reading this hub, it was poorly constructed compared to some other articles i've read about rumors...
I am currently having an orgasm with an iPhone 4 in my vag and an iPhone 5 in my bum and I'm so proud to be an ill informed, ignorant bitch who bleats like the iSheep I really am!! Steve Jobs is my cult leader and he just flashed me-- no wait, Steve jobs doesnt flash!! Tosser!!
everything this blog just said about the iphone 5 you can all ready do all of that with an android phone. Have you ever heard of the motorola atrix has a dual core processor a gig for each one and a gig of ram
Were not releasing the iPhone 4-5 in India, maybe in the next life you will be reincarnated as an American.
I had the EVO and it was the worst phone ever. verizons service is not really any better than sprint. i just got the iphone4 and love it. The camera on the iphone is way better than the 8 megapixel camera on the EVO. Its all preference and everyone needs to grow up and realize that everyone is going to have their own opinions and let them be them, we let you be you.
"iphone 5 Review"
The hub is full of contents and attractive in contents and suggestions.
Every improvement, every new thing, that may bring ease and comfort will be most welcome everywhere.
But grace of humanity lies in dignity and dignity is the other name of modesty and taking care of the feelings of others are not hurt.
May God bless all.
Check out the commercials this weekend. Launch of IPhone 5 is closer than you all think.
Poor article though.
iPhone 5 is revolutionary. My personal best new feature is the holographic display.
Hope you all enjoy it.
Thanks for your support.
Dr Samuelson iPhone 5 R & D director
to those who wonder why it is coming out so early or think its not coming out at all... well thats cause Jobs knows that he is being beaten by more advanced phones that run on 4g... (this part is dark humor) plus hes about to die so i guess this is his final way to say good bye to the world...
The iphone 5 it's gonna eat all the other stupid cell phones (cough evo cough) ! Iphone 5 awesome! Love Apple!
Hello all,
I am a millionaires, I bought each & every single smart phones ever made from iOS to android.
Nothing, not one can compare to the "IPHONE4. You heard me, from the voice of sinead oconner, nothing can compare to you iphone4. Tomorrow I will be giving away all these other phones in timessquare from 10:00a.m-11:30a.m. I will not be personally present but my assistant will be there. Not just anyone will get it, you have to mention this site & the article to receive. Enjoy. Giveaway is march 4th.
Petty soon with the us dollar going down hill and just saw gas in san diego ca at $4.05 gallon who's going to be able to afford a iPhone . Sorry to break the news too you !
I'm sure everyone (including myself) appreciate the time you spent to spread your knowledge! I phone 4 Life :)
God I can't wait for i phone 5 its the only thing that makes me wake up in the morning!!! That and the bills lol
You obviously have too much time on your hands. Some of those features are just apps... You don't need an iPhone 5 to run an app in case you didn't realize that before.
Nice job
I am embarrassed for whoever wrote this... there are more errors than I can count =/ don't get me wrong, I LOVE Apple (way more than you), but the majority of your article indicates that all these features are definitely expected in the iPhone 5, which isnt the case. Bear in mind, Apple may not even decide to launch a 5th generation iPhone. People like you annoy me. Stick to the facts.
thanks for the hard work. You organized bits and pieces I have read here and there, thanks,
i kant weigjt 2 gt tha ip5 it gona be da bomb an sins idont spel reel gud and kant thank 4 myself il just git one kuz eryone els iz. Peese homez.
what is with the comments "i'll wait for the second generation iPhone 5 because the first will have bugs." the reason iPhone 5 is coming so soon is because it is THE fix to the bugs in iPhone 4. the antenna problem and just adding a few cool features like new A5 chip and graphics chip.
i want to buy one, but im 12 + my dad wont buy me the money :/ im trying to save but im far off from being the words best saver :(
I hope the iphone5 is more "groundbreaking" than the ipad 2.......What a joke!
go and spend $$$ on new iphone which will be replaced by iphone 6 in few months, and what you do??? you go and spend another $$$, and again and again... what a rip off, you all i d i o t s must realize how they trick you out, its so sad
who need 4g if you can jailbreak and run everything like in wifi
lol you are a funny one. you made me want to buy it even more with your humor. Great review, I've heard rumors and now I can rest assure that I WILL be getting yet ANOTHER iPhone. lol
No way in hell I would give any amount of money to Apple. Here is a company that represents many of the things that are wrong with the world today. Any company that gives $100,000 to support gay marriage doesn't deserve our business. PERIOD! WAKE UP AMERICA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think it would not be around $500... can't be.
As news comes out, we heard that apple is trying to deal with companies of china rather than japan to make new iphone parts cost lower.
so, we can imagine that it could be $299 to $399.
thanks
What do you know about the POS LG 660 I just got from the slickster sales guy at the Verizon store. He was my bet friend untill the 14 day recision period expired. Then woosh he gone. The thing keeps locking up and is NOT compatible with my Plantronics bluetooth. Will the I5
be compatible?
"Average Joe" how is gay marriage related to a phone. if people want them they get them if gay couples want to marry they can, simple. If you think its all nonsense go read something else.
"duh" the price is before discount not after dumba$$
Verizon doesnt even have a 4 g network have you guys not notice its says LTE its only like veryyyy few bites faster than the 3g.. its a 4glite network damn verizon

Wow. You are the reason people hate Apple. I use Apple products almost exclusively, but your statement about Android is one of the most ill contrived assumptions I've ever heard. Get off your high horse and accept the fact that there are other phones that can compete with the iPhone (The EVO included)."
I complete agree with this comment.
Although I am not one who usually one to comment on things like this, the utter ignorance and arrogance of this article forced me to say something. Now, I am an EVO owner, but I also own an iPod Touch, Macbook Pro and iMac. Granted, I love Apple products, but here's the truth: They block many features of their products. For example, the iPod Touch: The Broadcom Wi-Fi chip in it had the capabilities of using Bluetooth. However, instead of marketing it with Bluetooth originally, they released an OS update allowing users to use it, of course at a ($10?) fee.
Google's Android OS is arguably the most customizable OS on the market. Sure, the phone companies inhibit some features, but Google supports developers more than any other multimillion dollar business I have ever heard of. When was the last time you've seen Apple release a developer code? Google encourages people to "hack" their phones. A friend told me Apple refused service on his jailbroken iPod....
As for the Dual-Core iPhone 5, Google Search "dual core android" and see all of the results you get. All of these phones have features that will (most likely) blow anything Apple releases away, and still have the developer support from Google.
The only "incredible features" that you listed in this article that my Evo does not have are the "Face Recognition Security" and the large internal memory.
My opinions on these:
-Let's see face recognition security work in a dark room....
-I would rather have a removable micro-sd card in my phone, that way if the phone its self breaks, I do not loose any files.
Truth: I have tried to scratch my Evo screen, and it looks just as clean and shiny as it did when I took it out of the box. NO SCREEN PROTECTORS NEEDED!
Thank you for your time,
Kyle

It's amazing how people still fall for the trolls..
I LOVE MY IPHONE 4!!!! Best phone ever, but the all glass part sucks, i dropped it the first day and got a crack in it:/ Would buy the iphone 5 but i just got this one and i cant afford another one. They should bake a tiny slide out keyboard cuz texting is annoying on touchsreen phones! I can't wait for the ipad 2....comes out in exactly 7 days! gonna get it right when they open!***** APPLE ROCKS *****
bet you want cause its not going to be sold untill 5pm friday call apple store and check
they should've built in a keyboard!
I can't wait for the 5 the i4 blew me away I can't imagine it getting even better but just leave it to apple to make the best a little better every time.
ciaokatherine, you are the biggest fanboy if I ever heard one. "As if the 20 gigawatt gazillion megapixel already in the iPhone 4 wasn't enough..." WTF is that supposed to mean. The only thing probable in your post is that it will support 4G. Maybe you think that means 4 Gallons.
you sound like you know nothing of what you speek of and android phones are amazing they are iphones worst enemy they come in different brands they have custom ui's they are a diverse world of phones compared to iphone blah, three year olds can use iphones they are too easy to use its just boring
LOL. Looks like I'm not the only one reading:D I am SOO excited about the iPhone 5. I hope to get one this summer; call me shallow, but I'm probably the most excited about the thinner design than any tech specs. I don't like the iPhone 4's design, so I'm ready for the change:D
I have an iPhone 4. This hub post was written by an absolute moron.
iPhone 5 will have the new A5 processor ! Very good thing !
The Iphone 5 will rein briefly but there are plent of dual core processors coming out in phones over the next year. The Evo is ranked higher than the Iphone 4 on almost every site...if you compare feature by feature the Evo is clearly a better phone.
Hmm just another deluded Macfan. I have owned 2 iPhones and they're good. Still the best looking hardware out there too.
The iPhone OS is so restricted, it makes them easy to use. My preference is now Android and yes you have to put in some effort to get it to work as you want it (but I am not given that option with the iPhone). The reward is it makes the iPhone 4 look like a dinosaur.
First of all u cant really clown on the Evo. Its way better then the iphone 4. Apple really droped the ball on the I4. All i ever hear at work u can guess where..is people complaining about the service.. why? cuz of the crappy design of the the I4. All the iphone customers did was bring down Att reputation of reliability down. IMO i phone 4 lost the battle this year.If the next model is better then Awsome maybe ill consider it but im not falling for Apples "marketing scheme" of we will release everything slowly.. that way we keep people buying every new model. "now with 12gigs rather then 4!!..now has wi-fi! oooooooooohhhh. Now it comes in white! ooooooooo. im not an I-Idiot. but like i said if it has everything finaly, then count on me buying one.
I hope that the iphone is not the same shape as the iphone 4 because the regular shape is fine
freddy, its not a mrketing scheme, just a rush to get their sales out, then new technology comes along and it makes them look like its a marketing stratagy.
ill be buying me a i phone 5, got the 3gs, and the 4 never intriged me at all.
Damn, already bought the iphone 4
I want wireless earphones so i can lissen to my music at work ***********

We have both Apple products and Android phones in the household. I have to give flawless interface to Apple.
Android is getting there if not already. Apple is making the same mistake they made with the PC - closed and proprietary technology. Android if you just count on sheer numbers of phones having the OS will win. I don't think any individual phone can compete with iPhone by itself.
For me, I will always go Android because I can expand the memory, openness, and mainly more for techno-geeks. Apple, well....
That's the last time I read a posting by a 12 year old girl!
I love iphone. but why don't they make it in USA instead...
WOW, worst iPhone 5 sum up I've read thus far.
1)How slow is your iPhone 4 that you think dual-core is a deal breaker!? App crashed, click, it's open again - versus a dual-core - App crashed, click, it's open again
2)There is NO WAY the iPhone 5 will be on a 4G network. Have you already forgotten how long it took apple to jump on the 3G band wagon!? They would never jump on a network that wasn't even fully up and running from the carriers yet.
3)What's ur definition of HD audio!? Cause by the normal standard that the rest of the planet uses, the audio already is HD.
4)Built in GPS app???? HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHA
Unless google plans on supplying the APP, while subsequently making their Droid phones have one less arm up on the iPhone, there's no way Apple decided to write their own app and Garmin, Navigon, TomTom, Magellen don't give handouts either.
5)What's this "much nicer" garbage!? Compare all the phones out today and state which one "looks better". Not possible, they all have a screen, and a back, and fit in your hand... how "much nicer" can that ever possibly get!?
I would love to buy the iPhone 5 but if the poor supply of iPhone 4 is anything to go by I doubt I will be able to get one, still haven't managed to get an iPhone 4 so its a bit academic really, maybe I'll go with a phone I can actually find in the shops i.e. Nokia!
I have never commented on a blog post before but i had to make an exception here. This is the really the worst 'rumor/news' post I've ever read. All the info is unfounded without any regard to really industry influences or historical apple product/feature release patterns. Terms such as '4G', 'Android', etc. Sound will be crisp? Shiny black piece?
Please stop writing on the inturdne
For 500 $ hell i will get 2 one for me and one for my girl
does anyone know an accurate release date in the uk as my contract ends in july, and i really wany one!.... also will it be available on 3, or on O2 as these are the only networks that i get reception on in my house :(.
thanks Guys!
You can book 2 in my name
Even for a blog posting this was waaaay to subjective. 32G of memory. Yikes.
so excited this is going to be my first iphone. It was either iphone or ipad. But of course the iphone.
Android phones are going stomp on the iphone 5 in no time. Its 2011 and the iphone still does not support flash yet lol what a joke......You're article is a total joke written to hype up a phone you know nothing about ; )
The Iphone 5 need to have FLASH
MOMO,
You know nothing about what your talking about I sell , cell phones. The Iphone is going places the android will never go.. You are clueless, your a moron, you think Flash is going to stop people from buying the iphone ? Please what planet you on dude ? Everyone copy's iphone. The Android still has a long way to go , and they will never catch up to Apple. Look at the android , you think it resembles that iphone at all in the operating system ? Duh ... I think most are just jealous of apples success and wish it for themselfs.
The reason Apple is so successful is cause what they do that do amazingly well. No other phone on the market does what apple does. Not to mention the the Adverage user, it's very very simple , which most get all confused with android.. So there you have from an expert that works in the retail sales of smart phones :)

The galaxy s 2 is better than the iPhone 5
It will also have the new nitro Java safari. This is coming out as a software update on march eleventh
I will definitely buy the iPhone 5 - from the US ! If I buy it here I can expect to pay $1600 at least. We don't have contracts here in Tanzania, like in the US or Europe for instance.
The iPhone 4 goes for $1200-$1400 here.
The iPhone 5 sounds great. U didn't mention anything about upgrade prices.
IPhone 5 will be better than any htc. iPhone is best. Apple is superior because it is the only smartphone manufacturer that does not support adobe flashplayer and java. That is why htc stinks. Apple Is ruling the market because it doesn't support software that all others do.
Sarcasm... Poor apple, can't work with adobe to make flashplayer and java software work on websites viewed on an iPhone, but they'll work on an htc or hp/palm.......
@Stevensocal
Agreed, iPhone sales are higher because of appealing software, more apps, iTunes music... In those fields, iPhone excels. But with someone who wants a phone for calling, resting, and browsing the web, htc thunderbolt and hp pre 3 are more appealing to someone who doesn't need the AppStore or iTunes, like me. I use my itouch for web browsing on wifi. I want to upgrade my basic testing phone to 4g phone, but need a bigger screen, full java, and flashplayer. Htc thunderbolt fits my needs better. If I want the apps, I'll just keep using my itouch, sine buying an iPhone would be like buying a new itouch with a camera, "3G" and cellphone capabilities. If I'm gonna pay monthly for wireless Internet, I'm not gonna wait for a 4g iPhone, when 4g htc thunderbolt is around the corner with java and flashplayer.
Texting, not resting..... Stupid iPod touch spellcheck, can't add basic words... Another pro for htc and hp/palm
jailbreaking and unlocking your iphone 5 must be necesary for anyone interested on taking the advantage of the phone, basically your phone is incomplete without a proper jailbreak
@stevensocal your post was gay. Go kill yourself Jew
Hello everybody. I'd like to introduce myself. I am an android fan and I have been loving my droid x but alot of my friends keep telling me to get an iPhone 5 cause I was curious about getting the iPhone 4 and they said to wait til June or July. I still wonder if I should get one cause I would have gotten one if it werent for one thing. That apple is still clinging to HTML5. If they would make the flash transition I would have jumped androids ship years ago. But they haven't so if anyone's knows the situation with apple and flash would they let me know. Otherwise I'll just have to forget about apple and the iDont have flash.
i cant wait until the iphone 5 comes out ive been waiting for my old phone to break soi can get a new phone.
I want to but it is way to much money
the atrix 4g destroys the iphone 4 and the thing that makes the android system better is the customization if you can customize the iphone 5 more then it will be a better phone the atrix also has dual processors and just as much memory
You, little girl, are the reason the internet is such a terrible place. Where do you get your information? From Apple Store workers? Do you think they are informed about the status of the company? I highly doubt it...
NONE of your information is REMOTELY accurate. Most of it doesn't even make sense.
Looking forward to buy it quite soon.
Personally I hate iPhone. So no point of buying it!
Hello everyone,
So I decided to make an account just so I could post a comment about how STUPID, RIDICULOUS, and ABSURD this whole article is. As well as the majority of the comments. For those of you leaving comments bashing on this so called "review", great gob!!! First off, how can this be a review of a product that has yet to even been introduced???
I want to apologize ahead of time for this being so long but she needs to be fully put in her place and people need to see the truth. I want to start off by saying that I do believe that a NEW iPhone will possibly be coming out in either June or July and I will explain my reasonings throughout this long comment. Also, all of my reasonings have facts behind them!!! I also want to say that no body knows if it's even going to be called the iPhone 5. If you remember the iPhone 3G and 3Gs so with that in mind it could be called something other than the iPhone 5. So with that in mind, I'm going to refer to it as the NEW iPhone.
I want to know how someone can apparently be so excited about a product that has not even been introduced let alone announced. Also, before you start going around calling yourself an apple fangirl let alone an apple fan, maybe you should do some research and know about the products or even the product you are talking about. I also highly doubt you go into an apple store and ask them questions for 30 min. and even if so I know for a fact if you asked them about anything coming out that has yet been announced, you would not get an answer let alone any of the ridiculous information stated above!!!
When you said, "what do I get out of this?" You should have said, "The benefit of sounding stupid over the World Wide Web and getting the average person to believe my absurd so called "review"
Now I do have to agree with the part about the NEW iPhone having a dual-core processor. I say this because the iPhone 4 has an A4 chip which is a single-core. Now by knowing that Apple now has an A5 chip which is a dual core that is going to be in the new iPad 2, I would assume it would be in the NEW iPhone which would mean that the NEW iPhone would have, (*~can you guess~*) a dual-core processor. Now about the graphics. It may just be me but last time I checked, the iPhone 4 did not have a 20 gigawatt gazillion megapixel. I don't believe there is even such a thing but again, that may just be me. Now when talking about graphics there are different things related. Yes, the graphics performance will be faster, up to 9X faster with the new A5 chip but I don't believe that they are going to do anything further with the Retina display that is already in the iPhone 4. I say this because the Retina display’s pixel density is so high, your eye is unable to distinguish individual pixels. Which means Text in books, web pages, and email is crisp at any size and Images in games, movies, and photos pop off the screen making everything sharper. It would be a waste of money to make something with an even HIGHER pixel density when your eyes are already unable to distinguish individual pixels when something is at any size.
Now it is common sense and obvious that the NEW iPhone will be running on a 4G network. The iPhone 4 runs on AT&T and Verizon's 3G network. Now if you have been paying attention to both carriers, both have a 4G network on the way. AT&T's 4G network is called HSPA+ which is available now and they have a second layer on the way called LTE which will allow AT&T to be the only network with two layers of network technology to deliver 4G speeds. Verizon's 4G network is called 4G LTE. And to be able to use either carriers 4G network, you need a 4G-compatable device. This is how I know that the NEW iPhone will be running on a 4G network. You can count both Sprint and T-Mobile out for being iPhone carriers. It may happen in the near future but as for now and the next maybe few years, don't count on it being on either one of those carriers. Now who are you to be bashing on AT&T's network. I have AT&T and have never had any issues with them. Now there are other people out there that would beg to differ and I totally understand. But last time I checked, ALL CARRIERS and I mean ALL have complaints of some sort or another. So to go and say that AT&T has had a lot of complaints so people are probably not going to choose them is totally absurd.
Now with you still babbling on about how bad AT&T is you then state that that is the reason behind the increase in jailbreaks for the iphone 4. Now let me start off by saying that when you JAILBREAK your iPhone you are still on AT&T's network. Now when you unlock your iPhone, you then have the ability to use another carrier. I don't know the number of people that either don't understand the concept between jailbreaking and unlocking or get the two mixed up but they are completely different. Let me explain the difference for those of you who don't understand the two. For those of you who do, then I commend you!!!
Jailbreaking is the process by which an iPhone firmware is modified to allow unsigned code to be run to gain access to files that Apple wouldn’t normally let you access. Jailbreaking adds unofficial application installers to your iPhone such as Cydia or Icy, which let you download many 3rd-party applications previously unavailable through the App Store.
Unlocking is the removal of SIM restrictions on the modem, allowing the use of the iPhone on any carrier. There are 2 types of iPhone unlocks. The first type is Software Unlock which means the iPhone is unlocked by a software. The second type is Hardware Unlock which means a modification has to be made to the actual hardware to unlock the phone. Software unlocks are safer because they do not modify your device and can easily be reverted back. Soft unlocks are mostly developed for free by the Dev Team, an international group of iPhone hackers. Hardware unlocks are a little tricky and usually cost money.
Now that everyone understands the two it is safe to say that you are 100% wrong with the so called reason behind the increase in jailbreaks. To sum everything up 99% of people jailbreak so they can get third party apps, free things, text message tones, and the list goes on. 99% of people who unlock the phone to use another carrier is due to TWO main reasons. Either they are already on their own network and love it, or they are already on their own network but don't want to pay an early termination fee and can deal with what they have. There are a couple other reasons but those are the two main reasons.
Now I do believe that the NEW iPhone will be coming out in either June or July. I say this because Apple has released a new iPhone each year. The first Generation iPhone was released on June 29th, 2007. The iPhone 3G was released on July 11th, 2008. The iPhone 3Gs was released on June 19th, 2009. The iPhone 4 was released on June 24th, 2010. With this in mind it is safe to believe that the NEW iPhone will be released sometime in either June or July of 2011.
Now I HIGHLY doubt that they are going to have a feature on the phone that has a "face recognition security". They have apps and software you can purchase to put on your iPhone for security and theft purposes. And if your worried about someone stealing your iPhone, hows this suppose to stop them, they are still going to do it no matter what.
YES, they will most certainly have video chat on 4G. But this will call for an update on any video chat app such as Skype, Yahoo Messenger, etc. Now if you are familiar with FaceTime, then you know that, as of now you are only able to use it while you are connected to WiFi but i believe that with the NEW iPhone you will be able to use FaceTime on the 4G network and I believe this because the 4G network will offer the speed to support FaceTime while supporting many other features.
I believe that they are gonna come out with a new design to fix some of the small issues such as the antenna problem, etc. I would have to agree that there is a possibility that the NEW iPhone will b
*(CONTINUED)*
iPhone will be thinner. I say this because the iPhone 4 is already 9.3 mm thick and the new iPad 2 is 8.8 mm thick which is thinner than the iPhone 4. So with that in mind I believe that there is a possibility that the NEW iPhone will be thinner. Now when you said, "it's gonna have a black piece" that sounds so stupid and makes no sense to me. And I don't believe it's gonna have a Shatter Resistant and Scratch Resistant Screen. I believe it will be more durable and stronger but not resistant.
Now the whole thing you say about, "The lowest model will come with 32G of space and 64G of memory. I'll be able to store my whole computer on the lowest model of the iPhone 5. Yippeee for me," all I can say is WHAT THE HECK!!! Last time I checked, no iPhone has a set of memory for space along with a separate set of memory. Are you serious??? And If you can fit your whole computer on 64G of memory then I'm surprised you were able to get on your computer, then on to the World Wide Web to write this hub due to the fact that 64G is NOT A LOT for a computer and the applications put on the computer and pics, music, etc. take up a lot of space and my laptop has 512G of memory in it. Now that I got that out of the way, If you paid any attention to every iPhone that has come out, you would see that yes there has been 4G, 8G, 16G, and 32G of memory for the iPhone and the iPhone 4 being available in 16G, and 32G it is 99.99% accurate to say that the NEW iPhone will be available in 16G, and 32G.
Now your whole statement about the battery life being longer makes no sense. and maybe you should get a life if you talk to your girlfriends for 14 hours (are you serious) then then you wonder why your upset about only getting 10 hours of sleep. I mean I'm happy with getting 7-8 hours of sleep. Now there is a possibility that the battery life may be longer I do believe it will be but not like you are stating due to the fact that even though it will have the A5 chip in it which is a Dual-Core, 2X faster CPU, and up to 9X faster graphics, the A5 chip still has the same LOW POWER as the A4.
Now you just sound stupid saying its going to have HD audio. If anything they will put a better speaker in the phone to make the audio "extra crisp" as you would say.
And now your saying it will have built in GPS. Last time I used my iPhone 4 I believe it had GPS so I wouldn't get lost, I could find places near by, etc. using the pre installed app called "MAPS" which is used by an assisted GPS!!! OMG!!!!
Lastly, you start talking about the price. If you ever paid attention to Apple, you would know that 99% of the time the price doesn't change. The price of the new product replaces the old model but keeps the same price so that means the price of the new iPhone will cost the same as the iPhone 4 and I say this because the same went for the iPhone 4, iPhone 3Gs, and iPhone 3G.
Hope everybody stops listening to this wanna be Apple fan who doesn't know anything. Thanks for reading MY COMMENT and apologize for it being so long but I couldn't help my self.
PS-Majoraty of people don't like the iPhone and their only reasoning is because it isn't supported by flash player or they just dislike or despise Apple. Get over it. If you want flash so bad, get on a computer. I owned an Evo at one point and from physically using both the Evo and iPhone 4 I have found that Android is semi slow, it lags, its glitchy, and just in general boring. While the iPhone is smooth with each touch and function, I can easily get from one thing to another in the matter of minutes and it is just better all around. I kept finding my self back on my iPhone 4 and really the only thing I used the Evo for was to follow football and sprint T.V. So that is my quick statement about iPhone and Evo/Android
I just want to say that we apple users definitely like the hype but we hate people like yourself who say how the iPhone is so much better then everything else. I sell cell phones, let's face it there are android phones out now with a dual-core processor, google maps or some type of free built in navigation etc. I owned the first gen iPhone for AT&T and that was the best phone I owned until my iPhone 4. Android phones blow the iPhone out of the water. I owned the eris, droid 1&2, droid x & incredible. However, I always have had problems with the software or phone problems. The reason why I purchased the iPhone was because of it's flawless accurate touch screen and it's ease of use. Not because it's better then the atrix(because it's not). Apple always seems to be behind in my opinion. So many people buy them though due largely impart to apples superior marketing. Now, before you go posting uneducated things like 32g of space and 64g of memory... There's a lot of things that I'd like to call you out on but I'll leave it at that. Your ignorant, do research....and this is coming from a loyal apple customer.
I wish I can edit my post, I tried to make a point in as little words as possible. I do not mean to come across negative on apple. What I was trying to say is that yea we dont have dual core processors yet and we don't have 10mp cameras. But I know that when I go to use a certain function it works 100% everytime. Yea open source is a great idea but it needs to mature. There are dozens of android o.s's and not every app in the android market will work for your phone. Is that the case for apple? No. Apple is still superior despite being a little behind because they care about functionality and practicality and ease of use rather than who's dick is bigger. I hope that clears up my semi-negative apple satements.
so will the iphone 5 work as a phone now? im sick of this iphone 4, everytime i get a call come through it mutes, puts the call on hold cuts the call off etc, this is something to do with the screen not turning off in a call, will it also ring instead of going straight to answer phone even though it shows full signal, will it work on a g3 network? currently i dont get any calls if this is turned on? before you ask iv have 7 replacements, 5 sim cards.
I have the iphone 3gs and I do like it. When I need a computer, I use my laptop. Thanks for the information.
I've waited in 6+ hour lines for every version of the iPhone. It's my luvah!
Very useful article keep on publishing.and now following
At least make an attempt to be unbiased. Droid-based phone users are "completely delirious" in believing that the iPhone5 could ever possibly be outperformed by a Droid based phone? Based on what evidence? The Droid phones out there today are better than the iPhone4, and the iPhone5 will temporarily leapfrog them, and a few months later 4G Droid phones will leapfrog the iPhone, and on and on we go.
HD Audio???, You are such an uneducated idiot, There is no such thing as HD audio. The main audio files used on phones are .mp3 the best audio files available today even in high end studios are .wav and .aiff as these are uncompressed audio file formats and even the quality of these are dependent on the sample rate and bit rate of the files, the only thing that could improve the sound quality of a phone besides listing to .wav or .aiff are better speakers which would allow the listener to more frequency bands and better volume. So get your facts right - HD audio ha ha ha you Muppet. Granted the new iPhone will have better speakers with an improved frequency range but its nothing to do with HD audio dumb-ass so stop spouting crap to get attention, FOOL.
yea im over seas now and when i get back im getting the iphone 5 right when im home
yea im over seas now and when i get back im getting the iphone 5 right when im home
so excited! getting the new iphone 5 in june ;)
I can't believe I'm finally leaving my blackberry for an iPhone. I never thought I would say that
You say the iPhone 5 is going to be so much better and more expensive. What makes it so much better, it looks better? It has GPS? My phone already has GPS and looks good. It seems like you're one of those iPhone freaks that if Steve Jobs shit in a box and called it an iPhone5 you would buy it no questions asked. I'm not saying that Apple doesn't make greats products. I had an iPhone for years, but to be hinest, my Droid Incredible does a lot more that the iPhone ever did. OK, I don't get to say I have an iPhone any more. I'm over it. When the iPhone came it it far surpassed other phones, now it doesn't. I thonk Motoroloa has the right idea with the Atrix. My phone should be my computer that I can plug into other devices. Maybe the iPhone 6 will have these capabilities.
i hope the iphone 5 will be 1080 full hd or may be 3d
This is the most fan-girl, rumor filled post, & rediculous post I have read to date. Everything the iPhone is doing has already been done. My phone does everything the iPhone 5 is rumored to do. BTW do more research - it is going to have an all aluminum backing and 2g of memory. The MacBook Pro has only 8g at its highest priced. Read more and speculate less.
Man, I've been reading and hearing bullshit about how droids and iPhones are so much better then one other. I had a Droid X for two weeks and my iPhone 4 for about a week and to say that one is SOOO much better then the other is absolutely retarded. Yeah, I prefer the iPhone but there are about 20 things the Droid has that would improve the iPhone and vice versa. Idiots sound so ridiculous bashing on one or the other. They're both great phones. It just sounds to me like BMW owners bashing on Benz owner. Shit's just absurd!
Will the iPhone 5 be available on Sprint?
Trasparent handset, 3D HD Screen and 3 sinked Camera set, for crystel clear imaging , logo at the back has its own screen that acts as a finger print scanner ..... Charger is now wireless
thats bs 3d screen...
I just hope it has a bigger screen. Also I dont want it too thin. I keep hearing it will be thinner, scares me.
This iPhone 5 will be amazing, ever since my first 2 iPod Touches and iPhone 4 I've Ben crazy about Apple products! I cnt wait for this to drop n the market
is it 500$ with an upgrade?
To late android already came out with these options face recognition dual core processor. Apple is behind and no longer revolutionary...never really was people are just brainwashed. If people would just do the research themselves instead of letting everybody else think for them they would find out that iphones are not special at all and really not as advanced as android. But believe what you want and yes I've had an iphone 4 but found out how much better android is and how it really does everything and anything you want it to. Iphone is so limited. Don't get me wrong its nice but not nearly nice and advanced as android. Think for yourselves people
I can't even begin to express how ridiculous this entire article is. If you're going to jump on the apple bandwagon and have the power to write articles you could at least show a minimal amount of restraint. First off the motorola droid bionic will be the first phone to use a dual core processor. Second of all the iphones camera capabilites... meh... not that impressive, sorry. Somehow you think that the iphones apps are better then the android platform, dude come on. This entire article was uninformed and embarrassing to read as an avid huffpost reader. As stated previously, make your own opinion people...
HAH wow this reviewer is the delirious if he thinks those 5 reasons will be the reason android falls. Did you forget how open android is? Android phones come out all the time, im pretty sure the features on the iphone 5 will be on android. We already have dual-core processors. Sorry iphone 5, but android is already outselling you.
Eric you are the one who is delirious because the only reason android constantly comes out with phones is to keep up to date with other phones (mainly the iphone) android may already have a dual-core processor but the iphone will over come any android phone on the market because of the fact that its an iphone and the user friendliness of the iphone the android phones will never come close to the iphones capabilities
PERIOD
If everyone gets a chance, check out my comment. Yes it is long but it is very informative with what I had to say. Things will seem to make sence with how stupid this so called "fangirl" is and what to possibly expect with the NEW iPhone. I give you legit reasons behind my responses unlike this person. Thanks and hope you enjoy!!!
I am from the future, and compared to the iPhone 12, the iPhone 5 will suck. The iPhone 12 has a Margarita maker and it scans your face to let you know if you have a booger hanging from your nose. It will also give your dog a bath, and if you get the iPhone 12gs it will brush your dogs teeth.... Psh... iPhone 5...
iPhone 5.......Let me tell you something about the iPhone it's gonna have a app where you can transmit radio signals so you'll be able to open up garage doors and even front gates of your home......I have a app on my iPhone 4 that's turns on my car.....that will be neat if you can open up garages.....now I work for steve/apple I am a assembler in the warehouse and the parts I seen for iPhone 5 are amazing.....but trust me it takes 2 years to build so yes iPhone realease day is on June 12,2012 so for those of you who can wait it's gonna be well worth the wait........oh by the way we already have parts for iPhone 6 that's just the way apple works.........thank you and hope you make the right decision
this is why girls shouldn't do technological reviews, especially on something that's not out yet.
If the iphone 5 pricing is anything like the ipad 2 release, we will be paying similar prices to the iphone 4.
If you haven't been keeping up on the techie stuff like you say you have you would have known that Nvidia had revealed their Tegra chip. Tegra is a chip made specifically for phones and tablets, its dual core, and currently the most powerful phone processor out there. The Motorola Atrix, and the LG Optimus 2x are currently equipped with this chip making them more powerful than the iPhone 4 and possibly the iPhone 5. The iPhone is just a poster child, nothing more. It seems faster, and easier to use when its really aesthetics. Apple successfully comes out with new products "upgrading" from the year before while the consumer gives in and "has to have it."
Thank you for supporting a technological tyrant.
i love the iPhone 5 specs. i really need to get one.
For everyone on here leaving comments like, "I'm getting an iPhone 5 after reading this "review"," or "You are so "amazing" I'm subscribing to you", or like this comment just posted, "I love the iPhone 5 specs. I really need to get one". You all are so NAIVE and some of you just sound desperate. I am reposting my long comment in hopes people will read it. Thanks!!!
Hello everyone,
So I decided to make an account just so I could post a comment about how STUPID, RIDICULOUS, and ABSURD this whole article is. As well as the majority of the comments. For those of you leaving comments bashing on this so called "review", great gob!!! First off, how can this be a review of a product that has yet to even been introduced???
I want to apologize ahead of time for this being so long but she needs to be fully put in her place and people need to see the truth. I want to start off by saying that I do believe that a NEW iPhone will possibly be coming out in either June or July and I will explain my reasonings throughout this long comment. Also, all of my reasonings have facts behind them!!! I also want to say that no body knows if it's even going to be called the iPhone 5. If you remember the iPhone 3G and 3Gs so with that in mind it could be called something other than the iPhone 5. So with that in mind, I'm going to refer to it as the NEW iPhone.
I want to know how someone can apparently be so excited about a product that has not even been introduced let alone announced. Also, before you start going around calling yourself an apple fangirl let alone an apple fan, maybe you should do some research and know about the products or even the product you are talking about. I also highly doubt you go into an apple store and ask them questions for 30 min. and even if so I know for a fact if you asked them about anything coming out that has yet been announced, you would not get an answer let alone any of the ridiculous information stated above!!!
When you said, "what do I get out of this?" You should have said, "The benefit of sounding stupid over the World Wide Web and getting the average person to believe my absurd so called "review"
Now I do have to agree with the part about the NEW iPhone having a dual-core processor. I say this because the iPhone 4 has an A4 chip which is a single-core. Now by knowing that Apple now has an A5 chip which is a dual core that is going to be in the new iPad 2, I would assume it would be in the NEW iPhone which would mean that the NEW iPhone would have, (*~can you guess~*) a dual-core processor. Now about the graphics. It may just be me but last time I checked, the iPhone 4 did not have a 20 gigawatt gazillion megapixel. I don't believe there is even such a thing but again, that may just be me. Now when talking about graphics there are different things related. Yes, the graphics performance will be faster, up to 9X faster with the new A5 chip but I don't believe that they are going to do anything further with the Retina display that is already in the iPhone 4. I say this because the Retina display’s pixel density is so high, your eye is unable to distinguish individual pixels. Which means Text in books, web pages, and email is crisp at any size and Images in games, movies, and photos pop off the screen making everything sharper. It would be a waste of money to make something with an even HIGHER pixel density when your eyes are already unable to distinguish individual pixels when something is at any size.
Now it is common sense and obvious that the NEW iPhone will be running on a 4G network. The iPhone 4 runs on AT&T and Verizon's 3G network. Now if you have been paying attention to both carriers, both have a 4G network on the way. AT&T's 4G network is called HSPA+ which is available now and they have a second layer on the way called LTE which will allow AT&T to be the only network with two layers of network technology to deliver 4G speeds. Verizon's 4G network is called 4G LTE. And to be able to use either carriers 4G network, you need a 4G-compatable device. This is how I know that the NEW iPhone will be running on a 4G network. You can count both Sprint and T-Mobile out for being iPhone carriers. It may happen in the near future but as for now and the next maybe few years, don't count on it being on either one of those carriers. Now who are you to be bashing on AT&T's network. I have AT&T and have never had any issues with them. Now there are other people out there that would beg to differ and I totally understand. But last time I checked, ALL CARRIERS and I mean ALL have complaints of some sort or another. So to go and say that AT&T has had a lot of complaints so people are probably not going to choose them is totally absurd.
Now with you still babbling on about how bad AT&T is you then state that that is the reason behind the increase in jailbreaks for the iphone 4. Now let me start off by saying that when you JAILBREAK your iPhone you are still on AT&T's network. Now when you unlock your iPhone, you then have the ability to use another carrier. I don't know the number of people that either don't understand the concept between jailbreaking and unlocking or get the two mixed up but they are completely different. Let me explain the difference for those of you who don't understand the two. For those of you who do, then I commend you!!!
Jailbreaking is the process by which an iPhone firmware is modified to allow unsigned code to be run to gain access to files that Apple wouldn’t normally let you access. Jailbreaking adds unofficial application installers to your iPhone such as Cydia or Icy, which let you download many 3rd-party applications previously unavailable through the App Store.
Unlocking is the removal of SIM restrictions on the modem, allowing the use of the iPhone on any carrier. There are 2 types of iPhone unlocks. The first type is Software Unlock which means the iPhone is unlocked by a software. The second type is Hardware Unlock which means a modification has to be made to the actual hardware to unlock the phone. Software unlocks are safer because they do not modify your device and can easily be reverted back. Soft unlocks are mostly developed for free by the Dev Team, an international group of iPhone hackers. Hardware unlocks are a little tricky and usually cost money.
Now that everyone understands the two it is safe to say that you are 100% wrong with the so called reason behind the increase in jailbreaks. To sum everything up 99% of people jailbreak so they can get third party apps, free things, text message tones, and the list goes on. 99% of people who unlock the phone to use another carrier is due to TWO main reasons. Either they are already on their own network and love it, or they are already on their own network but don't want to pay an early termination fee and can deal with what they have. There are a couple other reasons but those are the two main reasons.
Now I do believe that the NEW iPhone will be coming out in either June or July. I say this because Apple has released a new iPhone each year. The first Generation iPhone was released on June 29th, 2007. The iPhone 3G was released on July 11th, 2008. The iPhone 3Gs was released on June 19th, 2009. The iPhone 4 was released on June 24th, 2010. With this in mind it is safe to believe that the NEW iPhone will be released sometime in either June or July of 2011.
Now I HIGHLY doubt that they are going to have a feature on the phone that has a "face recognition security". They have apps and software you can purchase to put on your iPhone for security and theft purposes. And if your worried about someone stealing your iPhone, hows this suppose to stop them, they are still going to do it no matter what.
YES, they will most certainly have video chat on 4G. But this will call for an update on any video chat app such as Skype, Yahoo Messenger, etc. Now if you are familiar with FaceTime, then you know that, as of now you are only able to use it while you are connected to WiFi but i believe that with the NEW iPhone you will be able to use FaceTime on the 4G network and I believe this because the 4G network will offer the speed to support FaceTime while supporting many other features.
Dont get why ppl dont read the info on the phones, Iphone comes with NEWS!! that old Sonyericsson did better ten years ago (video call) and why do a phone with no memorycard.... i guess its Steve Jobbs grandmother who is responsible for the tech news on the phones. I like Iphone alot but compare with any other phone and you get more for less with good quality.
(CONTINUED)
I believe that they are gonna come out with a new design to fix some of the small issues such as the antenna problem, etc. I would have to agree that there is a possibility that the NEW iPhone will be thinner. I say this because the iPhone 4 is already 9.3 mm thick and the new iPad 2 is 8.8 mm thick which is thinner than the iPhone 4. So with that in mind I believe that there is a possibility that the NEW iPhone will be thinner. Now when you said, "it's gonna have a black piece" that sounds so stupid and makes no sense to me. And I don't believe it's gonna have a Shatter Resistant and Scratch Resistant Screen. I believe it will be more durable and stronger but not resistant.
Now the whole thing you say about, "The lowest model will come with 32G of space and 64G of memory. I'll be able to store my whole computer on the lowest model of the iPhone 5. Yippeee for me," all I can say is WHAT THE HECK!!! Last time I checked, no iPhone has a set of memory for space along with a separate set of memory. Are you serious??? And If you can fit your whole computer on 64G of memory then I'm surprised you were able to get on your computer, then on to the World Wide Web to write this hub due to the fact that 64G is NOT A LOT for a computer and the applications put on the computer and pics, music, etc. take up a lot of space and my laptop has 512G of memory in it. Now that I got that out of the way, If you paid any attention to every iPhone that has come out, you would see that yes there has been 4G, 8G, 16G, and 32G of memory for the iPhone and the iPhone 4 being available in 16G, and 32G it is 99.99% accurate to say that the NEW iPhone will be available in 16G, and 32G.
Now your whole statement about the battery life being longer makes no sense. and maybe you should get a life if you talk to your girlfriends for 14 hours (are you serious) then then you wonder why your upset about only getting 10 hours of sleep. I mean I'm happy with getting 7-8 hours of sleep. Now there is a possibility that the battery life may be longer I do believe it will be but not like you are stating due to the fact that even though it will have the A5 chip in it which is a Dual-Core, 2X faster CPU, and up to 9X faster graphics, the A5 chip still has the same LOW POWER as the A4.
Now you just sound stupid saying its going to have HD audio. If anything they will put a better speaker in the phone to make the audio "extra crisp" as you would say.
And now your saying it will have built in GPS. Last time I used my iPhone 4 I believe it had GPS so I wouldn't get lost, I could find places near by, etc. using the pre installed app called "MAPS" which is used by an assisted GPS!!! OMG!!!!
Lastly, you start talking about the price. If you ever paid attention to Apple, you would know that 99% of the time the price doesn't change. The price of the new product replaces the old model but keeps the same price so that means the price of the new iPhone will cost the same as the iPhone 4 and I say this because the same went for the iPhone 4, iPhone 3Gs, and iPhone 3G.
Hope everybody stops listening to this wanna be Apple fan who doesn't know anything. Thanks for reading MY COMMENT and apologize for it being so long but I couldn't help my self.
PS-Majoraty of people don't like the iPhone and their only reasoning is because it isn't supported by flash player or they just dislike or despise Apple. Get over it. If you want flash so bad, get on a computer. I owned an Evo at one point and from physically using both the Evo and iPhone 4 I have found that Android is semi slow, it lags, its glitchy, and just in general boring. While the iPhone is smooth with each touch and function, I can easily get from one thing to another in the matter of minutes and it is just better all around. I kept finding my self back on my iPhone 4 and really the only thing I used the Evo for was to follow football and sprint T.V. So that is my quick statement about iPhone and Evo/Android
I love iPhone 5. I'm waiting for iPhone 5!
seriously!? you're splurting out shite like their FACTS! im lookingh forward to the iPhone 5 and unlike you, i CAN wait. dont get your hopes up. apple always leave you wanted more, so you spend another £400 next year.
killerpenguins101# nobody read your dissertation on apple. jeez.
Tosh, I don't understand why you or people in general would go and read nonsense but not read TRUETH!!! Doesn't make any sense. If your going to take the time to read BULL S*#T then why take time to read TRUTH!!! But thats just me!!!

youtube alex jones, jesse ventura, george green, 2012, new paradigm and the list goes on lets figure it out and come together as a spiecies LONG LIVE HUMANITY
Everything in this article is pure speculation.. not to mention all of the benefits your so excited about on the iPhone 5 are already available on android phones now. Like the video on youtube says (that's iphone 4 vs. htc evo) if apple made a brick and called it an iphone people would still buy it because you have been advertised to so hard your ignorance shines through.
Hi It is getting hard for me to keep up I am 55yr young and remember when there was only one kind of phone.Thank you for reminding of that and keeping me up to date.You did a Great Job! Oh by the way I have 2.
To be honest number five has to have something new and unseen before as it's Apple if it's just improved spec then its pretty pointless they end up the same as Nokia, design and the look of the Phone is what Apples all about what goes in to the phone is just an added bonus for some people, if Apple want my 500+ bucks there going to have to give me something 10 times better than the 4 i have some ugly friends so Facetime wasn't the most wanted on my list of things for the four if i see another wire for the 5 then they can keep it wireless charging is out there time to get with the times 3D screen and Camera would be tops on my list think of the pictures and movies you can take if you can get it for a DS i want it in my phone =)
ooohhh, definitely want that iphone 5!.. i'm still using the iphone 3gs, i was planning to buy iphone 4 but there were rumors of iphone 5.. i'm willing to wait.. just hoping it will come out soon!.. do you know what month this 2011 they will release iphone 5?.. comment back!.. thanks!
honestly half the stuff you said didn't make sense. You obviously are just some fangirl who doesn't actually know tech and just spew out anything people tell you, sure some of your statements are correct like the fact that it will most likely have a dual core but anybody could have guessed from the recent spike of duel cores in androids. I am neither or at least equally an apple and android fanboy and I love both products but the way that you have set up your argument has a lot of flaws in it, maybe bone up on your tech, info and reliable sources before you make your next prediction
I want to see it. How much will it weigh? Will it be contoured in any way, and so easier to hold. Since it is 4g will it work in ct. and ma. Is 4g service everywhere or only in selected states? Had to return 2
Iphone 4's, they were defective.
WHEN??????
@killerpenguins101: i hadn't read your post before i posted mine but i want to applaud you for the amazing job you did. long read but it was everything I wanted to say and more, this dumbass girl needs to get her facts straight
I have an Iphone 3G yea its OOOLLLDDD so my contract ended last month but ill probably just get the 3GS or 4 because I'm NOT paying $500
i'm going to wait a little more until both iphone5 and ipad3 are officially out (not rumored!). my hope is a smaller (cheaper) version of iphone will be able to run off of ipad3 that is running full itunes software so the ipad is more like a computer...which it is anyway! this way i can replace my 5 year old laptop, my 4 year old cell phone, and my first gen ipod. ipad i hope becomes more like a hub that you can run iphone off of. ipad is cool but it kind of lame that you can't load itunes off it and marry it with your iphone. i don't need a $500 iphone. i need a $400 ipad with a $100 iphone. i need my new ipad to the be the planet my iphone moon runs off of. it's stupid to have to have a computer in order to run both ipad and iphone off it.
Let me set the record straight here. 64GB of memory means the iPhone 5 has 64GB of RAM (Random Access Memory) which provides space for your computer to read and write data to be accessed by the CPU. Storage Space which is more permanent is not the same as memory which is temporary.
WOW, i cannot believe this chic is getting this much response on utter bullshit, a phone is a phone. If your current smart phone does what you need it to than why buy into all of these retarded cell phone companies trying to make a buck. $500 for a phone, gimme a break, i make over six figures a year and i would never spend that on a PHONE. Time to wake up and realize that there will always be a newer version coming out but hey, if you can justify spending that much on a phone, go ahead and waste your money, SUCKERS!!!
I love my Iphone. Had it since 1st gen to iphone 4. It is definitely the best device i have ever owned. I don't think anything comes close to Iphone. Can't wait for Iphone 5. I wonder why everyone has to copy Apple..I wish they could come with their own idea. Apple comes with Ipad..rest of the gang follows the leader.They all come with shitty tablets.
I found this blog quite amusing. Well, first let me ask this... The point of having a smart phone is the fact that most functions require the internet, so why in the world would anyone be dumb enough to purchase a smartphone with a carrier that doesn't support multi-tasking (Cough: Verizon Cough) What's the point of having this super amazing mini computer if you can't even use some of the most important features of the device while you're texting/makeing or recieving calls? Can anyone tell me why AT&T has been the longest provider for the iphone... Because the phones actually do what they're suppost to do; MULTI-TASK! As far as people having "issues" with AT&T's service thus opting to jailbreak their iphones...That may be the case in very few circumstances. The main reason people are jailbreaking their iphones is for the free non apple apps why they're using them with other networks is simply because AT&T isn't necessarily the "cheapest" carrier when it comes to pricing of plans and deposits to start up service. But, then again you get what you pay for. We've all heard the slogal "At&t has the fastest 3g network", well why exactly do you think they're the fastest? Hm let's see now, maybe because of the new limited data plans At&t has provisioned so that customer shouldn't be using their smartphones excessively for tethering ect. clogging the cell phone towers and thus slowing speeds for other users. Stick with what you know and trust; At&t.
it's funny that you say Android will not be able to compete with Apple. Android moves wayyyy toooo faaasssttt for apple, Rim, or Palm to even keep up. Android is the best platform because the freedom it gives it's users. No flash on Apple puts the phone in a position where Android can always stay on top. The fact that I can use my Evo, Browse a website like Facebook and watch a youtube or Facebook video... with ease.. it's revolutionary. COme on!! on a portable device?!!! LOL .. the post you made was good but not enough to make Android users shake in their boots.
I'm retarded. Because I love Android.
iPhones are for smart people.
And not the writer of this article.
You're a dumbass. 64G of memory?
Are you insane? On a mobile device?
For what? Processing world peace?
Retard.
There's an App for that......you need to run to the store and get food There's an App for that.............your stuck in toilet without paper There's an App for that.......... Your wondering why There's an App for that,There's an App for that,There's an App for that,There's an App for that what is this world coming too.....first it was the cell phones then it was walkie talkie then camera came along then video camera came along then keypads on phones came along then they said why hassle making a keypad just make the whole thing touch..,..then touch screen came along then apps......and now they got the world like slaves living life with there device in there hand for more then 12 hours a day...,..there's an app for that......
I know the iPhone 5 will be great but the iPhone 6 will be even better. I might wait for the iPhone 15, I heard that 15 will be the real groundbreaker apple are going to build in a temporal distortion beam, imagine the fun.
Well, what a poor article.
For someone who makes an article all about the new iPhone but doesn't really know what they're talking about. You may as well dismiss everything written here.
Key items that are wrong:
32g of storage and 64g of memory???
Learn what you're talking about. Memory, is RAM, and you will not get 64GB in a phone, lol. Storage is what you're talking about, and yes it's likely the new iPhone will be available in 32GB or 64GB options. Just don't mention the word memory when you don't know what you're talking about.
The new iPhone with built-in GPS? Correct me if I'm wrong but iPhones already have GPS - how else does my Sat Nav work on my 3GS? With GPS, and I don't plug any external device. Therefore, it has built-in GPS.
"What do I get out of it? The benefit of knowing I'm helping rid the world of lesser non-Apple phones (*cough HTC Evo cough*)."
What a terrible comment to make. You will not rid the world of non-apple phones, because the whole world is full of choice, just like everyone can choose what car they want to drive. Obviously you're gonna buy an Apple phone until the day you die, but other people aren't the same - if everyone bought all the same things, the world would be a very boring place, and people could charge silly amounts of money for them knowing that you HAVE to buy them because there's no other option.
So..... get a life really! And if you're going to make articles on topics like this, know what you're talking about - and don't call it a review, because you're not reviewing a product.
Well, what a waste of time!
You are a very entertaining writer. That was very enjoyable to read :).
WHOLE LOAD OF BULLSHIT

ok so I don't know much about the iphones, not gonna pretend I do, have never owned one, one thing I will say is why don't they make it text friendly for us chicks that have long nails, it's not the easiest of things to do. i currently have the nokia 5800 - i know what am i thinking, but for now it will do, i can touch screen with my nails, i dont have to use the tips of my finger and it makes it so much easier, that would be the only reason I didn't purchase the new iphone.
we shall have to see what it's like when it does eventually come out - apparently July?? to pay $500 and in GBP that will still be way too much, i will have to think about it!! mmmmmm what should I do...!
I'm a fellow apple junkie but this article is poorly written and half of these "facts" your pulling out of your ass. While I own an iPhone and love my Apple products I'm still smart enough to see that Google's Android is a large competitor and for good reason. Apple has never made a refresh of its products more expensive than the last version. Get your facts straight. Your lucky you don't get busted for copyright infringement because half of this article is copy and pasted from other mediocre tech blogs like your own.
i already have it
I am so disgusted with apple. You all say that the Iphone is this. The Iphone is that. Now I'm going to compare the Iphone to your basic android phone on a 4g network. Take the HTC Incredible, Inspire, or even the Evo. First of all the big thing is that the camera on the Iphone is 5 megapixels. Pshaw, the HTC Inspire has an 8 megapixel camera. Point to android. Secondly; Adobe Flash Player. Hey, you know that thing which you play games on your computer with? Yeah the android can use that :) But not the Iphone. Because apple is arguing with Adobe Inc. I don't see flash coming anytime soon. My second is, some HTC phones have bigger displays, and also, they all have high quality resolution that is fairly better than the Iphone. Thirdly, android phones are more customizable. You can add live wallpapers (moving wallpapers), without jailbreaking and messing up your warranty. Now here's one, you can play NES, SNES, Gameboy, and soon DS games on andoird phones. This is for free and you don't even need to have any games. You can download them for free. Also, HTC phones have been proven to be fairly faster than the Iphone, and are more user approachable. The speech recognition is fantastic and you can literally say "navigate to starbucks" and will map out to the nearest starbucks coffee shop. I mean come on... no contest. Im tired of everyone choosing the Iphone. I mean I get it, it's made by a successful company that everyone likes, but the Iphone just isn't as good. And one more thing... Apple needs to get with the picture. They should have 4g on the Iphone 4. Sorry Apple. Epicly proportional fail.
What a useless article... I'm sorry but it said absolutely nothing... I felt like I was reading someone's dreams...
And don't think I'm biased. I'm merely a thirteen year old boy. Having had the Iphone 4 and the HTC Inspire, I'm expressing my opinion on this topic.
This article lacks credibility. So much so, I'm having a hard time understanding why she wrote it.
Wait I'm sorry :) Did apple just get schooled by a kid? Yeah... I think so :)
Wait I'm sorry :) Did apple just get schooled by a kid? Yeah... I think so :)
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand your statement that the Android devices won't keep up with a dual core processor in the iPhone 5 is debunked:

Have a nice day :D
OMG this is supost to be the best i have the iphone 4 but this iphone 5 btw i WILLLLL be gettin is pure genious i vote iphone 5
when is iphone 5 coming out? AND HOW MUCH WILL BE THE MOTHLY BILL?
I just got an iPhone 4 and returned it within 2 weeks.
I have determined that they suck for numerous reasons, outlined below.
1. No Adobe Flash
2. No drag and drop of files
3. No HDMI out
4. No memory expansion slot
5. No easy battery access
6. No custom text tones
There's more reasons they suck but those are the top reasons a lot of people might care about.
cant wait when will it be coming out for sure??
I know someone that works at Verizon and they said that the iPhone 5 would be out in June.
I'm tired of chasing these new phones, if the iPhone 5 has the features that u described, then there's really nothing so intriguing about them. There isnt anything so spectacular then, ofcoz newer versions always come with more speed, better sound quality, better data(internet) capability. In most cases the difference is not so marginally different. I think Im going to try Android next, cuz im looking for somthing more refreshing and different!

Retina display! 8-megapixel camera! Video calls! HDMI port! The last few days have seen lots of shouting from proponents of the hot phones of the minute, the Apple iPhone 4 and the Motorola Droid X. Which phone really delivers the best experience? We got our hands on both and tested them in seven categories: cost of ownership, storage, connection speeds, still and video image capture, display and resolution, operating system, and multitasking and media playback.
The iPhone 4 won the majority of our battles--but barely. Both phones are incredibly fast, have superb displays, and come loaded with multimedia features. Some of our tests, such as OS and media playback, come down to personal preference. On the other hand, our display, still camera, and camcorder tests clearly prove that the iPhone 4 is stronger in those categories. And the iPhone 4 won our data-speed and voice-quality tests, though they were confined to San Francisco; the results could be different in other parts of the country.
Soon, we'll be putting the HTC EVO 4G and the Samsung Galaxy S through the same testing, so check back for those results.
Thanks ratz! Unbiased information is always appreciated. I'm plumb giddy about the i5!
Dam it - Just bought an iphone 4
Wow! :) My friend has a Macbook Pro and an iPhone 4G! She's a lucky one.I got an iPad and a white iPhone 3G but there's no freaking SIM card... ughhh..well to bad i can't call on it. :\ & guess what? we're in the 7th grade! :O
Ok i love everything you said and mostly agree except for the fact that you said that the Iphone would be 500 dollars.... way off there if apple goes anywhere close to that there sales will drop and they will loose a chunk load of money. It makes no economical sense. Not everyone has 500 dollars to drop on a phone plus expensive data contract. So good article mostly.
EVERYONE! So my dad work with apple developing and he brought home the iphone 5 prototype. Just gotta say ITS SOO SICK. I love the fact that there is a gps installed on it :) ill be posting pictures in a couple months when im allowed.
Just to clear few things up for everyone. Please don't pay attention to this post because this guys is full of shit for a most part. Google iphon5 and read other post with a reliable sources not just a rambling and speculations of a little girl.
That is such a load of horseshit........ Who told you all that? Your mom?
32 Gb memory really? N doesn't the iPhone already have a resistant screen?
yeepeee i was about to by iphone4 ithink i well wait for the iphone5 man
I am not a techi and the difference of opinion is enough to make me keep my 2yr old LG: simply just a phone! Imagine that!!!!!
I'm eagerly anticipating the arrival of the iphone5, currently I'm using the iphone 3g and it's been wearing down my patience.I'll be the first in the line up to receive the new iphone when it arrives and that will certainly be one of my summer highlights.
i have never had an iPhone .... as the price put me off .... so i bought a sony erricson mini pro x10 .... what a waste of money No support for Mac at all ... i should have saved that and put it towards an iPhone.... which i am now going to get when the 5 hits the shops in the UK.
The iphone 5 will come out in july and the 6 in november .... Lol its sucks for ppl like me who bought the iphone4 ... They go to fast !!
DAN^^^^^ is there actually a iPhone 6 coming out in october?
DAN^^^^^ is there actually a iPhone 6 coming out in october?
quiero comprar uno estan chidos
The fact that someone can say that the evo or any Android based phones are crap compared to Apple is completely ridiculous. I love Apple, I own a macbook pro and I wouldn't trade it for any Windows based OS if u payed me to. I am looking forward to the iPhone 5 to come out, but right now I am currently using an HTC incredible with Android 2.2 OS and I love it. To make comparisons today on phones or tablets or anything is completely ridiculous because you can't compare.. There will always be competition in the electronics industry, and one persons opinion is not better or more knowledgeable then the next person; it all boils down to preference. That is the bottom line. As for saying what the iPhone 5 will have, don't jump to conclusions until Apple actually releases specs on the phone. Another amazing phone coming out soon will be the HTC Thunderbolt capable of 4gLTE network with amazing specs... Everyone has there preference, so everyone stop bashing everything and learn to enjoy our technology and stop being spoiled, snobby, and stuck up about everything.
Please tell me why a company like Metro PCS has 4G LTE already and AT&T doesn't yet? That's crazy to me!! And as far as the iPhone dropping this year, don't believe it. Apple usually waits 2-3 years before releasing another one. I currently have a iPhone 3GS and I love it. And I do want the iPhone 5 when it is released. I just won't be getting my hopes up high to buy it THIS year! Maybe in 2012.
I am an avid Apple fan and have had 4 iPhones. However, tonight has been spent ordering the Galaxy S2, it's quite simply stunning.
It's so good, I regret that iPhone 5 will not keep up. No way will Apple surpass it, how can it? Will it be thinner? Will it have a larger screen? Will it have a better screen? Will it have a larger battery than 1650?
Apple will lose thousands of customers, of which I am one, if it doesn't announce iPhone 5 before this goes on sale.
This rumor page sucks. Of course they will release the iphone on AT&T most people have AT&T.
Well The iphone 5 may becoming out, and your prasing on how the specs have improved, by the time that launches there are gonna be phones that make it look obsolete, apple is always behind in techonology andmaking their phone superior. trust the iphone 5 is NOT going to be the first with a dual core processor, besides iphone is a brand only the there will be phones that have the same and even more functions. DROIDs are the new thing no doubt about it
Just do what I did. Buy a phone with tons of problems, go through like three phones and then demand an upgrade to a better phone. Its a hassle but you can get a nice phone and do it with that too XD
Wow..... Its a phone.... either way to the person whom posted this... i can understand being excited for the phone that does what any other phone does, however with the comment in reguards to Android.... every featuer you have just mentioned except face time becasue android has google talks and skype is coming out onto and android device... the differnece between the iphone and android Iphone is at its peek and will never go any farther Android there is no limit to what the droid will become reason being ... you chose to back the evil empire with a motto of "We make it, We control it, you buy it" Apples not a bad company and because they control the device is the reason people dont have freezing problems it "works" as far as from a tech perspective though enjoy your box Ill go ahead and stay outside of it. "Eww you can download apps!.... so can any phone"
Wake up girl, you're the one that is delirious. Original iPhone was groundbreaking for it's UX (if you even know what that means). 3G video calls have been happening since early 00s, yet you are citing that as groundbreaking for a phone in 2011? Will it have expandable storage? Replaceable battery? A decent flash? TRUE multitasking?
That's alright, it's a phone for the herds, of which you are one...
the iphone 5 has consumed my thoughts, and invaded my dreams, it has caused a strain on my mariage. if it comes down to the iphone 5 or my wife i will be single.
when is the iphone 5 going to come out?
$500?????????????????????
dude you literally have no idea what you're talking about
this article is a bunch of SH*T, wow a dual core processor, androids got it, lets see what else... NOTHING at all Android has ios beat on every level and not to mention updates, Apple comes out with one every what it seems decade while android constantly improves. Nice Try there is always next year i guess
Apple makes cell phones?!!
Apple makes cell phones?!!
Paul, do not forget androids owes this tech , :-)
yup there is next year , but why android wont move ahead ? and its waiting for next iPhone to buy or copy the tech from ? :-)
If I'm mistaken I don't think she said anything about adobe flash did she? or does the dual core processor allow that? That would be my only complaint.., that I can not open up all my emails all the way if there is adobe flash required.
Flash will be never. Steve Jobs HATES Flash's guts.
While I think iphone's are great phones and have set the benchmark for smartphones its just crazy to state Android phones don't compare!! The HD audio would be a nice plus, but new Android phones like the Droid Bionic will be outstanding pieces of hardware. They will also have dual core processors, high resolution and a few features the iphone5 wont. Both platforms would be an exceptional choice. The different choices available and competition is what drives these companies to continue to make great improvements!!
For all you people who keeps bashing the Iphone and think that your Droid, HTC whatever the crap you have is better than the IPHONE you guys are losers because obviously you're envious of Iphone owners. If YOUR phone is sooooo great, why are you Google-ing about IPHONEs? Hmmm...Get a life people!
Ill take my g2 over any phone currently out, with it rooted I tip the scales wil 1.6GHz and have 20GB of storage with micro sd card plus an HD screen and the android OS call me happy
The iPhone 5 (or whatever it's going to be called.... I submit it to be called the iPhone awesome) is definitely going to be mine.... Only not if it's 500 dollars, I think apple will keep the current price tag, maybe a little more depending on features, but hopefully the 500 dollar price will apply to the no contract iPhone :)
I think penguin should have this review not the author haha, and honestly I think the iphone will suffer until it adds a true keyboard. Even the evo came out with anewer version with a keyboard.
And btw T-Mobile's HSPA+ network is blazing fast that is all.
All of this information is speculation (and not even informed speculation) presented as fact. NOTHING is confirmed for the Iphone 5.
your comment about how Android will never be on par with Apple os is dumb to say without reasons why. the main reason why many people believe apple has an egde is simply with the fact that apple has been doing it longer. thats all. not better, just longer.
The iphones are nice, but I simply do not want one because of the high price associated with the plans. I can only anticipate the plans will be even more expensive with 4G. I suggest everyone to hold off until we also see what the next android iterations will be as well. Droid3 and DroidX2. I am all three will look impressive.
I have da iphone 4, the iphone 3g and will purchase the new iphone when it comes out :) verizon sucks, AT&T is way better. They give me the best deals and discounts most people could not get.
I'm just waiting for a super fast iPhone really, I can't cope with my iPhone 3G for much longer...
i am so buying an iphone5 as soon as it comes out
The iphone 5 will be a good phone its not going to be a revolution its just another evolution in the line of iphones that have come out. The os in every iphone is the same and its gotten to the point where its bored me. I was once an iphone user and now I have an android phone and its better. Right now apple needs to play catch up with android but of course everyone has their own opinion. I suggest looking into android phone before stating your opinion
You honestly don't know as much as you think. Of course the droid is gonna come out with just as good of phone. The droid is already way faster than the iphone 4. In fact, I think the iphone 5 is coming out just to keep up with the droid. It's just your so ignorant in thinking that iphones are the absolute best, while ignoring any facts or research. If your going to post an article, forget your apple bias (apple is the most amazing company), and actually write a more informative review. I learned more about the iphone 5 from a friend having a casual chat than from your oh so informative review. I could have written a better article. Now besides your terrible article I am excited about the iphone 5. All I wanna do is jailbreak it and mess with the better graphics memory and proccessor, because the last couple iphones weren't nearly fast enough for my liking.
I actually have a iphone and and evo because both are good and not great. Merge them into 1phone and you would have great. Camera on iphone sucks but rocks on evo. Ease of iphone is the best feature. Not the best review as it is weak but good attempt. Hard to do on speculation. Include more detail next time. Good luck in the future!
God you have no idea what you are talking about. This whole article is garbage. People jailbreak to have control of their phone. They unlock to use the phone on other carriers. As for as the spec for the iphone 5 you are making everything up.
where did you get all this information?
I just got back from AT&T and the lady said it will be out hopefully by July! I was going to get the IPhone 4 with my upgrade for $199 but might as well wait a few months and pay about $50 more. This should be the last of the iPhone's! :( but they are AMAZING phones. Iv never ever had a problem with my iPhone 3GS, or my 3G!
I can't wait to get it!
Uh, no
4G isn't real!
Yes, I will be buying the new iPhone 5 on the Verizon network when it comes out. I have been a blackberry user for 10 years because I didn't want to go to AT&T but now I will be moving away from Blackberry and into the iPhone world.. Can't wait for it to arrive.
you are retarded... all info quoted from apple execs say that they are making it cheaper than past models. there is no way it will run $500. maybe if you aren't available for upgrade i see $399, or 4€200 for upgrade. although apple is a power house they would never make a phone that expensive.
iPhone 5 will be really gay
lame
This chick is retarded, she seems to just be making things up!
This person is an idiot, Please don't listen to him/her
Awesome.
But what about a 12 mp camera with better flash.
Super resolution screen display, 4 inch screen size and flash support for webpages.
I screwed up and bought an android (first time smart phone buyer) 8(. Very disappointed in the fact no android will enlarge text and the text it so small even people with perfect eyesight have a hard time reading anything. Putting on reading glasses 100 times a day gets old FAST. Really bad that I have to carry reading glasses everywhere and fumble around looking for them while driving. Wish I would have studied more before blowing 400 on the "stupid" android. Having to pull the battery 3 times a day because the OS in android is so buggy gets old too. It just locks up and won't do anything till you pull the battery and boot it back up. I don't understand android fanboys always calling apple lovers fanboys when the OS is so freaking buggy in android. Only problem I ever heard with iphone was the dropped calls which was easily fixed with a case. Warning from an android user, DON'T BUY THEM! TOO many problems just google it.
I think T-mobile should get the iPhone 5
they have the fastest 4g speed and it will double
to 42 Mps
I wish Apple would make an unlocked iPhone with CDMA & GSM and any other type of cellphone signal that I don't know about.
IF they ever do that then they would really have a better chance to taking over in my opinion,
Oh and add 2 sim-card slots , or make it so you can carry CDMA and GSM service with you at the same time, look up dual sim phones to get a better idea of what I mean by the last part
ME AND MY WIFE WILL BE GETTING THE IPHONE 5!!! We already have iPhone 4's and I really hope they come out with the white one cause I really don't like the black version FML. thank you apple for making the best products ever!!
See I have a HTC desire hd and it is the greatest phone ever I had the iPhone 4 but sold it because in comparison it is nothing the fact is the iPhone 5 may be released but Android will just create another phone that will be better any one that says iPhone is sick is obviously still in school and just goes with what everyone else says stop being or trying to be part of the trend and look for phones that do everything and not just have the Apple logo on them
Yadda yadda yadda.
For those who can't wait to offload your hard-earned hundreds for the iPhone 5, which will be replaced next year by its successor and so on: do you realise this product is manufacturered in China and costs a mere pittance to make compared to how much you will pay? Keep feeding the process and paying over the odds - Apple love indulging the gullible!
Just some things to point out that this article missed: the iPhone 5 will likely only be available through AT&T for this summer release because of the newly released iPhone 4 for Verizon. AT&T (and when it eventually comes to Verizon) will not price an iPhone with a 2 year commitment at $500. They will continue to initially subsidize a large portion of the upfront cost of phone especially since it doesn't take a huge amount of time under these contracts to make their money back. Expect the phone to either be priced similar to in the past or just slight higher.
i really need one of those phones
@Savvy
Yeah thats called making profit. Its what the entire economy is based on... so yeah.
Great comment you asshat. If you're so opposed to them, JUST DON'T BUY IT. I really couldn't care less. But QQ moare. Working REALLY well for ya.
I heard the new iPhone 5 will be able to perform invitro fertilization and make tacos. Nice Hub. :)
If this Iphone 5 was only 300$ I would be sooooo much happier.
My budget is tight just like most average Americans. So making a 500$ phone is worthless.
@Kirt
I dont know what android phone you had but my samsung captivate hasnt given me any problems. What youre saying would be like me using one of the first iphones and bitching about how crappy it is. The current android phones are very comparable to iphone in speed, features, display quality, etc. Its really a matter of preference. I bought my captivate about two weeks after they came out for $79 and couldnt be happier with it. Why apple charges $ 200-300 for similar phones Ill never know......Unless maybe because theyre greedy assholes and know people will pay it!
Android you can enlarge text wif englarging twice on the new samsung galaxy S2 which is the phone to call a revolution it will wipe iphone off the market it will blow every fone out it is the revolution check it uop I've never gone on contract but when dat shit comes out I'm getting it on contract soon as possiable ders not 1 thing any fone can beat it on
it is the sexey iphone in the world i have naver seen
u rock
How can it have 32G of space and 64G of memory
Firstly G is not a measurement for storage.
Secondly no home computers have that much memory, if by memory you mean RAM.
If you meant storage space then you've quoted the same specification twice.
This article is bogus, it's just a wish list.
sad pointless info from an apple lover.
I really want to buy the iphone 5, im only fourteen and all my friends have one, plus i lost my new phone i got in october 2010 :( so my goal is to save up in time for the iphone 5 coming out!! :)
I've been dying to get my hands on an iPhone 4 but unfortunately they haven't released it in India yet... now that the iPhone 5 is being released soon, hopefully I'll be able to get my hands on one in Singapore and ship it down!!!! :-/
I own iphone 5, and it sux big time
sounds gd !
I've had the Verizon Network for 8 years now. I just read up on the cost on just buying the phone and the initial purchase of the iPhone 4, and first month's service costs.
16Gb : $199.00
Plan : $ 69.99 (Unltd 700min.)
Data Plan : $ 29.99 (Unltd) $49.99 (Hotspot)
Text Plan: $ 5.00 (250 msgs) $10.00 (500 msgs) or $20.00 (5000 msgs)
so it can be anywhere from $303.98 up to $338.98
just for the 16GB version.
Don't know about your budget but, For a cell phone $199.00 and then Service every month on the average plan $109.99 that's $309.99 just to get for the initial purchase. If I had all the money in the world, I'd get all my family each an iPhone 4 (5, 6, 7.....).
Could you imagine how much the iPhone 5 only will cost when it comes out?
I'd have to take out a second mortgage or use my equity line.
Just outrageous! And it's not even guaranteed that Verizon will have their (real)4G network running by then.
I really like the idea of making things workable.
How can it smash upcoming android phones. There are already dual core android phones being released, NO flash support ever according to Apple as they don't 'get on' with adobe and have their own equivalent which no one uses. There is nothing an iPhone can do that an android can't do. Except use itunes.
And... there are even 3D android phones due out in 4-6 weeks. Iphones have a cult following like Alfa Romeo cars. Unreliable, overrated but people still love them.
Forget the iPhone 5, there is another device coming out right after the release of the iPhone 5. It's made by big company(can't say) and the phone is known as the PPM1. Its operating system is far more powerful than the iPhone 5.
Ya, I heard about the PPM1 as well. But there is not much info, if not at all, on this phone out there. Maybe they wanna release it with a bang! Can't wait!!
PPM1? I'm up to date wit all my tech toys, especially my phones. Gotta need colorful phones jus like my ladies. I never came across the PPM1. Is it gonna come out this year? By whom? Where can I get info on this????
Hahaa...iphone 5. Baby woot woot!!
The PPM1 was the initial name. It changed supposedly. Ya this phone is said to be crazy. Let's put it this way, you will never need a seperate camera or a camcorder. This phone has a built in 12 MP camera. Now that's unreal!!! Plus, you can film videos in full HD! And obviously make calls.
The PPM1's shape is similar to its competition, the iPhone, but only slimmer. Sorry, have no more intel.
Will no doubt have to wait fukin ages to jailbreak it, brought my IP4 bk in Jan and had 4.0.2 firmware only managed to jailbreak it with green poisen 2 weeks ago! Iphones are wank untill u get cydia. Once jailbroken any other phone is just plain crap!
Screw the iphone5. I cant wait for the ppm1!
Use green pioson ive already jailbroke my iPod touch 4 did that a couple of weeks after I hot it
Iphone 12 comes out in like 5 years just wait some more...
These new devises look good but how much will they cost here?
If you are going to write an article about a phone then please do not be so biased, you state android users who say that it can compete with apple are delirious, sorry but to be so close minded is delirious.
You mention iphone 5 having a dual core processor, correct me if im wrong but ana ndroid mobile called the "Galaxy s 2" is on it way with a dual core processor.
Android is open works just as well in terms of software as an iphone, i dont think that can be argued, the browsers are largely the same in terms of speed, you also get the added advantage of actual flash on the android, not some stupid lite version.
I like iphones and apple but what i really hate are the large number of fanboy's / fangirl's that iphone's have, i am sure android has the same problem but from my experience i am yet to read an article about one stating iphone users are delirious because there is no way that anything at any point could ever compete with this might company / software.
Please dont be so narrow minded in future.
I cant wait for the iPhone 5 to come out. This will be my first iPhone!
Okay, I read the article, which is well written but I have some useful feedback for you.
You state a dislike for all things non-apple, so you admit to writing a biased report. You then go on to list a range of features that few, if any are confirmed by apple.
So what you are writing is actually a biased report of other peoples guesswork?
Reading what I have written so far, you may feel that I am an apple hater. You would be wrong. I am sitting next to my iphone 4 as I type. I love the device, it's simple to pick up, but with a little work can do so much!
I also use a blackberry torch, and have tried a range of HTC and nokia devices recently. all have good points, all have bad.
Matthew, its people like you who ruin life, and ruin everything for peeple.
Apple is a perfectionist company, they will never stop being perfect. And it shows with there amazing products.
Great article got me even more pumped about waiting till the iphone 5, my carrier is finally hoping off the cdma network and jumping on 4g so I am pretty excited.
I know a bunch of people who will be purchasing iphone 4's at the end of the month, but I am going to hold off. I've waited 2 years for this and I am pretty sure I can wait another few months.
I am hoping that my iPhone 4 battery life starts to die in time for the iPhone 5 release!! I have Future Shop's Product Exchange Program on my current phone, so they'll just hand me an iPhone 5, literally... how sweet is that??? :)
What if there is a iPhone 6 with 5g speeds. That will be uber cool
Yes I think it will be fab but will hold on for iPhone 6 out the year after
Thanks
Sent from a android phone
hi you said to comment....sooo......i have an ipod touch and i think that's awesome enough as it is even if it is only v3 still :P oh well i am definatly gonna get an iphone when i'm older maybe the 6th? ah well got a long time to wait...parents are all silly about that stuff and it being nicked i have a crappy samsung at the moment :/ and they say i've got a loooooonnnnngggg time to wait until i can get a better phone :(
I will make the best replica of the iPhone 5 when it comes out and sell it for much less!
Did you hear about the iPhone 6 which is ment to come out after the 5, heard its gonna be better then the 5,dont you think we should wait for it. lol
iPhone 4, groundbreaking? What? Since when?
iPhone 5, groundbreaking? Are you kidding?
What is groundbreaking about them? Everything in them has been done previously in Android phones. Apple are merely trying to keep up with Android phones.
There is nothing groundbreaking about them.
Android is groundbreaking and Apple merely have to catch up.
PPM1 is better than the iPhone 5. It should be released this year.
iphone's are going to fail real soon. Better phones are coming out like the PPM1. I heard so much good stuff about it. It sucks cuz apple releases a new iPhone evey year. What do they think? We wipe our rears with money???? ummm NOOO. The PPM1 is going to last more than a year in the market, now that's a gauarantee. The specs on this device are un heard of. The technology is out there, but due to profit gaining, they only tease the public. However, PPM1 is the phone to have!!!!
Awesome, another iTunes bound turd that will have the crapple puppets dancing to Steve Jobs' music like marionettes.
I have a Captivate which is already 10 times better than the iPhone4. No iTunes, No DRM, I can change the battery, I can use it as a portable hard drive, it takes MicroSD cards, it's faster, the screen is bigger, the app selection is increasing by leaps and bounds AND i get the satisfaction of knowing that Crapple isn't getting any of my money to propagate their digital fascism.
I was watching a latest gadget show and they mentioned the PPM1, but they refered it as the "P" I think they are talking about the PPM1. If they are, they said real good stuff about it. They gave it a 10/10 for ingenuity. I want to get my hands on this device.
wow! you actually make me laugh xD im tottally agreeeeee with u... no andriod will compare with this monster (i mean worse than a monster) IPHONE FTW!
When they coming out please?
I will probably buy an iphone 5 as a replacement for my iphon3 3Gs, it will be more usefull for me c",)
The person who wrote this article obviously knows very little about the Android technology. I would go so far as to say that you know very little about the mobile industry else you wouldn't have written this article.
What is especially scary is that you have people reading is and believing the things you wrote.
As one poster said, there is no evidence as yet regarding what the iPhone 5 will offer or what it will look like. So far all there is, are speculations.
Regarding the fact that the iPhone with have a dual core chip...FYI...there are several manufacturer with Android phones with dual core technology.
I won't knock Apple because they do in fact make great products, but it doesn't mean that they are better than the competition. I currently own, an iPhone, an Android and a Blackberry and have used a Windows Phone in the past.
I believe they all have different things to offer depending on one's needs. For example...I only use my iPhone for fun stuff like games, reading and listening to music, never for phone purposes. I use my Android as my primary phone because it offers a several things that the iPhone doesn't offer:
1) Real cloud computing
2) Multitasking
3) Desktop Widgets
4) 5MP Camera
Those are just a few I can think off the top of my head.
Does this mean that the Android is for everyone? Certainly not.
The iPhone has it's own advantages such as not having to worry about updates unlike the Android where you are dependent on the manufacturer and the provider.
I won't bother to go into the BB.
I hate to break this to all you iPhone fans out there but all the features of the iPhone 5 are already available in Android, in fact they have been available for so long that they're considered as standard for the high end Androids.
and as far the as Dual-Core / 4G hype, all I have to say is Tegra (nVidia Graphics) / 4G and not to mention the tiny little features of FULL HD 3D recording and playback without glasses!!! and the best Apple can do is HD audio, laughable!
in short the iPhone 5 (and the iPad 2) is already obsolete and take it from an informed person (unlike the author) I seriously doubt Apple will be able to catch up in the foreseeable future.
Apple do one thing very well and that's not software/hardware, it's marketing. They've learnt from M$ how to sell obsolete things for extortionate prices!

this article is seriously rubbish and the author know next to nothing about mobile phone carriers and the software/hardware of the phones!
before you think i'm an android lover, I work in IT and we have access to all the major smart phones, Android are by far the most advanced in software and Hardware apple are good but not good enough to keep up and they have nothing coming soon (inc iPhone5) that will match the current generation of android devises let alone what's coming in the next 12 months.
as far as nokia and BB are concerned i wouldn't even bother, there falling even further behind than apple
i think your all geeks!! no on really cares THAT much about the 1phone5 just go with whatever comes!! lol
also this review is based on ZERO evidence.. just someone that loves iphone and hate everything else!!
FROM THE IPHONE 3 - 4 I DIDNT THINK THERE WAS ANYTHING MUCH TO JUMP UP AND DOWN ABOUT BIT RUBBISH MMMM
I PHONE 5 I THINK YOU WILL HAVE TO DO SOMETHING TOP TO GET ME GOING FOR ONE
LOL! You idiots saying if the phone comes out and you buy it you are stupid because they will just put out another in a year are seriously sad, sad people. Go back to your caves and send coded messages over your pagers because the fact you are typing this on a computer proves you are an ignorant hypocrite. With your logic you shouldn't buy anything because they might come out with a better one. So whatever you do don't buy a vehicle, computer, TV, game console, watch, tool, chair, sex toy, light bulb, shoe, brick,.............
Everyone on this page must be making some money from Verizon , Apple, AT&T, Sprint...... These people sit back and laugh at this. People actually spend all their money just to make them richer....You broad cast these stuff like crazy. Come back down to earth, we're not in space. Technology is always being upgraded no matter what we do... Save ur money and dig a hole in the ground....lol .... Love what u have while u have it. Tomorrow isn't promised... smh
Yeah sure, the iPhone 5 will be completely awesome and groundbreaking, blah blah blah etc, until the iPhone 6 comes out and everyone is forced to go out and get one of those as well because it's SUCH a necessity. It probably also breathes for you and does your laundry too...
I read somewhere (in these comments) that the iphone is too thin for earphones.
my response:
are you on drugs? if the phone was too small apple would lose a majority of its market......
i would think they would retardedly make new earphones if that was to happen. but the chances are 0%
I just can't wait for it to show-up.... Can only imagine the kinda games that'll come handy when one purchases it....
I want my 10 minutes I spent on reading this article and the comments BACK!!
A NEW generation iFone after they just released the upgraded i4 on Verizon? LoL! Maybe a tiny upgrade (as some posters said). Keep on waiting people. I still use my phone for calls only and have a laptop for everything else (yeah, those computer-looking things that you can actually do everything on...)
im buyin it can some one tell how can i jailbreak my ipod????
Great post! When will the iPhone 6 be comeing out?
thanks .... i'll waiting
I looks nice but I doubt I'll get one. I'll more than likely still be paying off my iPhone 4 when it comes out and I'm happy enough with it. I think I'll wait for at least the iPhone 6 to come out before I decide to upgrade.
i have just got the iphone 3 i know it's an old modle but it's an iphone so i dought i will get an iphone 5 i'll wait unil the iphone 10000000 justkidding only the iphone 8
What a load of b^llshit !!
NOTHING has been released on iPhone 5 yet and won't be for a while (I asked in an Apple store only yesterday) and also, EVERYTHING you have written in your article basically spells out the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S2 (think you have your information mixed up.....or made up rather). P.S I looooooooooooooooove Apple and all their products I currently have an iPhone4 BUT I have seen the capabilities of the Andriod system lately and I have to say, they are REALLY giving the mobile market a run for it's money. So in closing, for future reference, please get your facts straight before posting threads like this.
if your like me in live in a state that don't have 4G it does not really matter...
your fucking ridiculous if you think that the iphone is the best phone all around in all aspects.
1st comparing to samsung galaxy s it is equal or worse in all aspects except scree resolution. (480 vs. 600 not much different.)
also your forgetting that galaxy has a bright and bigger screen. Also can be a wireless router.
umm lets see ... well the point is that they are both amazing phones and both have there ups and downs.
but you thinkk iphone 5 is going to do it i would check out the galaxy s2 before you make your choice of phone this year. 1ghz dual core!!! 4.3in screen!! 1080p recording!! swype type!!
lets get this straigt im not saying iphone sucks cause it doesnt but it has some serious competition that i see is better!
I can't wait for it.. do you know when is the exact date for the release.. and it will be available here at UAE
If you're going to comment about how the iPhone is going to blow Android our of the water can you at least make a decent argument other than "I'm an Apple fan girl"?
You didn't mention a single thing that the iPhone 5 will get which is not already available on Android phones.
Dual core processors, yeah Android beat Apple to that. Dedicated graphics? Yeah that too. 4G connectivity, stupid girl you even mentioned the first android phone to do that, the Evo 4G. Scratch resistant screen? Just go look at the Youtube videos of people going to town on the screen of their Galaxy with their keys and not leaving a single scratch, and that phone is about to get replaced it's getting so old. Built in GPS, bloody hell my Desire has that and it's over a year old now.
I'm not saying that the iPhones aren't good phones, but you list these features saying that Android doesn't even come close and you're completely wrong. The only feature I saw there that hasn't already been done by Android is face-recognition security, and honestly I'm not too beat up about it.
Back up your opinions with arguments and comparisons next time.
Hi there,
i'm an apple fan but i'm the first one to admit that if the iphone doesn't take the leap it will be blown away from htc and samsung using android.
Android users have already overcome iphone users and android OS has already all the functionalities of iOS. In some things android is even better and, people, don't forget that andoird is google who is much bigger and stronger than apple.
Let's hope iPhone 5 will do his job.
To the people that are saying the iPhone 5 will not be released this year because it's too soon: Hello? iPad 2? The original iPad was released a year ago this month, was it not? You should know that tech companies nearly always come up with breakthrough designs and then purposely lower the capabilities of it so that they can bring out a better model (the original design) a year later. After all, they are all about making money.
Bob, you are also completely wrong. Android is the name of an operating system made by Google, they have nothing to do with the design/hardware of the HTC/Samsung phones.
Also, there has been no confirmed phone running Android that has a Dual Core Processor, but I am aware that the iPhone 5's specs are not confirmed either.
As for the claimed scratch resistant screen on the Galaxy S, there are also Youtube videos of people doing this to their iPhone 3g's, a phone which is nearly 3 years old now. The HTC Desire had Assisted GPS, also something the iPhone 3g came with.
I agree that the phones running Android are catching up, but Apple is still winning in terms of setting the standard.
idiot thats an iphone and a htc
I think it will be available after June 2011.
IPHONE still the best mobile phone tech invented for the moment, my opinion.
I just would like to say, do you people really think that this idiot knows it all. No one knows what will happen, unless you work for Apple, and if you do, you'd have to be pretty stupid to reveal such information after which you can loose your job. People are so gullible, it's hilarious.
duh my iphone 4 iz awasome!!!!!!!!!!!!! i would want the iphone 563274526452845275472542548452456745284528542854824825468528452684526452864562854268546825468x10 to the googolith power
hahaha $500, double that and thats what you should be assuming the price to be (apparently, technological convergence is expensive). especially the 64 gig version of the iphone 5. none the less i will be buying one.
Written by an apple "fanboy"..yes the iphone 5 will be good and have a dual core processor (rumor). But come on...don't hate on android. They are great phones. Written by atrix 4g - 1st dualcore phone. I say check out your options because it is all personal preference
The PPM1 is coming out. It is better than the iPhone5.
actually i own an iPhone 4 and befor iPhone 3GS. This fone is similar to Nokia 1100 as both has 2mp camera, and nokia 420 has no touch screen..also iPhone 5 is nothing but i has only 5 in place of 4.

Finally an article on the iphone 5 written by Jessica Simpson! Thanks!
i want a IPHONE 5 SSOO BAB
This is amazing. Really good review of the new iPhone 5.
To Charlie Sheen:
Here are some of the Android Phones with Dual Core technology have been or will be released in soon some with 4G technlogy:
Motorola Atrix 4G
Motorola Droid Bionic 4G
LG Optimus 2X
LG Optimus 3D
Samsung Galaxy S2 4G
According to rumour HTC has 2 dual core phones they plan to launch later this year.
AK,
I am from UK and none of those phones exist here yet so I couldn't compare them with the iPhone. In my opinion the iOS alone is a reason to go with the iPhone. It is so much more stable and smoother than Android.
I love how you made everything up there lol.
Who is this girl? This is one of the worst written technical blogs I've seen to date.
How can you speculate on a phone that it will be better if it hasn't release as of yet - wow!
Check out these specs please - and I'm not pulling it out of my ass like the speculations you have here.
http://galaxys2.samsungmobile.com/html/
Google galaxy S2
Common people get a life! There is more to life than worrying about what phone your going to purchase. Maybe one day you won't even have any meaningful face2face conversations. Except maybe through FaceTime or texting? How sad for real!
I disagree with the AT&T accusations how it's SO SLOW, because it was just the design of the iPhone 4, and if NOBODY HAS NOTICED, Verizon is dealing with just as many problems with the iPhone 4 as AT&T did when they first released the iPhone, so don't go blaming the fastest Network in AMERICA!!
when will an iphone come with an expandeble memory card.only phone i can think of without one
I cant wait for i phone 5 to reach in singapore
I cant wait for i phone 5 to reach in singapore
From your description the Iphone5 is going to be at best an average handset, with nothing new (y the time it is released there will already be a multitude of phones on the maret running on dual core and having NCF tech). My phone is over a year old now (being replaced shortly) and it has HD vdeo and sound so that isn't new or a unique selling point either!
I opted for a 24 month iPhone 4 plan knowing full well I would be holding out for the 'iPhone 6'. As good as I'm sure iPhone 5 will be i think it will only be incremental improvement like 3G to 3GS was, i.e just a bit faster and a bit more battery. The 6 will be a major upgrade like the 4 was to the 3GS right down to the body design so we'll see that 4" screen at that point. The infrastructure for LTE and other 4G networks are in the infancy right now and non-existent in most countries out of the US. If the support is in for iPhone 5 then it will not be seen as a 'useful' upgrade until most countries come on board around iPhone 6 or even 7.
Samsung Galaxy s2 beats the iphone 5 hands down no doubt about it!
Ya im getting it for my b-day. But My moms making me pay for it. I am turning 12!!!!
Looking forward to anything Apple releases and I buy most of it.
Only negative is the flash, Apple please buy Adobe and get the flash player to a standard so we can get it on our Iphone, Ipads etc. thanks
I still have the first generation Iphone that won't receive or send pics - Apple does tend to forget the basics in its haste to be world leaders.
Despite that I will wait for the Iphone5.
BTW - the person who started this blog is entitled to do so - and for those of u whe were never taught manners - attack the content NOT the person - unless your so perfect yourself that u are without fault.
Calling somne a Whore etc simply reflects your appalling level of expression -
Can't wait for IPhone 5 to be on Malaysia's shore. Another big hit long lines IPhone fever yet again
It is clear that you are extramly baised to Apple, and that you are Apple fan boys, or girls if you will.
I used to use iPhone 3GS, then upgraded to iPhone 4, and they ware an OK phones, but after switching to Android, I will never look back again, NEVER.
I am using HTC Evo, and I am extramly happy with it. In comparsion with iPhone 4, I belive Apple should have calld it iJunck 4 becouse it is a fancy piece of junk,a premium junck if you will.
People, look around before buying iPhones. Dont be belind, there is accuatly better phones at lower cost runing Microsoft and Google OS.
Honestly, better video is a great thing, but really, how much better can it really get than it already is. I mean, that miniscule extra clarity, richness will not going to affect my life one bit.
The iphone is ALREADY a smartphone that is more than what people really need. In fact, my friends who own an iphone is VERY dependent on it that they seem to need an app for every occasion in life.
What would really be revolutionary for ME is if they release an iphone5 with matte screen.
You moron, iPhone 5, and iPhone 6 alreday availble in the market. What you are waiting for?!!!!
Oh, I forget to mention; that they are sold under other names from HTC, SE, Samsung, Moto, and LG just to name a few, and I have reduced thier prices too ...
Some models of the new iPhones:
- HTC EVO (Codenamed iPhone 5)
- HTC DesireHD (Codenamed iPhone 6)
- Nexus S (Codenamed iPhone 6)
- SE Arc (Codenamed iPhone 6)
My best,
Steve Jobs
Great work on the page, You have tonnes of comments and have made it to the top of google's organic results. Hopefully you were able to make some money to go towards buying you an iphone 5. sound cute too.
I have been staring at an iphone 4 in my apartment in the box for 4 weeks now wondering if I should just return it and wait for the iphone5 hahah. it's killing me
The author of this article has been truly misinformed on the iPhone 5! She cant even state where she got these facts, other than what one is led to assume- she heard them from the applefags in her local apple store. You also clearly have no idea about phones in general, since you dont seem to know anything about the competition - which, as other users have mentioned, is already ahead of the iPhone 4, and will, after a while, develop past the 5 as well. What a ridiculous article, based on absolutely nothing. Ohhhhh facetime on 4g.... android users have actually been able to do that on 3g for a few years now, something you cant do on the iphone 4... and guess what... it works fine you retard!
I really want the iphone 4 but does anyone think i should wait untill the iphon 5? when will it come out?
will the iphone 5 have a slide out keyboard????? Really hope it does!
Yes I would definetly buy I phone 5 iats just going to cost $199.99 for 16gb if i add a line so I cant wait to do that I will add my wife with me so I can get I phone 5 and she can keep i phone 4
I really like the new iphone 5 and its great.
If I could have my way....
My new iPhone would have a jet pack so I could explore outer space
It would also have a built in salt shaker and pepper cracker, maybe some hot sauce
Me and Steve Jobs would also hang out and ride around in his Ferrari and we would text people while driving because we are outlaws like that
And My new phone would also make me invisible like a super hero so I could help solve crimes
Thanks Steve Jobs. I love you
Stevie Brule
This chick is obviously about as tech savvy as a goldfish. Go do your nails or something.
For a self proclaimed gadget geek, you really ought to do your homework! Android phones like the EVO, Thunderbolt, and Inspire are every bit as good as the iPhone 4! Just check out the specs for yourself! The EVO and Thunderbolt beat the iPhone 4 in every single category except screen resolution, and they are hardly behind in that category! And as far as the iPhone 5 being revolutionary because it will have dual core processors, I hate to break it to you, but the Android based (Motorolla Atrix 4G) already has dual core processors. It's been available for over a month now! So before you get on your uninformed, brain washed, elitist, "Apple" high horse and ride, you ought to research your facts on what's really going on! Android is owned by Google after all, which is only one of the Biggest companies in the world! Bigger than Apple! I'm not dissing Apple! I'm just saying get your facts straight!
you dwarf you've coppied and pasted it onto this shitty web
I don't think the reviewer like's the prospect of the iPhone 5 very much...
Umm... As cool as your dream iPhone sounds most of the things you said are wrong...
Please fix your poll questions. You don't form the plural of nouns (iPhone) by adding 's. You just add an s (well, in most cases).
So please change: "I Hate iPhone's" to "I Hate iPhones".
I will wait until IPhone 10 comes out
I will wait until IPhone 10 comes out
LOL, I agree, cnet has the most useful specs
I agree 100% with pianomandan. This review is complete speculation. Apple typically only does huge upgrades every few years. While there will definitely be some cool stuff, a lot of it will be downloadable to prior models. The statement about using it on any network other that verizon or att shows a total lack of cell phone technology. Just because most companies have a 4G network doesn't mean any 4G phone can work on all of them. Just try using a CDMA phone on a GSM network. Yes, if I was going to buy a new IPhone, I would wait until the 5 comes out because I could get the newest phone or get the 4 at a deep discount. If you want real iPhone 5 updates try reading reviews by professionals.
bitmeyen kartu? is my keyword for using it in this topic to get hit on print.com.tr
I do not care iphone 5 or 6
thanks
i never considered to buy an i phone i use blackberry, but now i'm really ready to buy it... seems to be great! and the face recognition thing... how AMAZING is that!!!!
Cool when is it coming out? Anybody knows for sure yet ???
Cool how soon is it coming out, anybody knows yet???
HEY AMMO- DONT TALK ABOUT THE ISSUES WITH THE IPHONE FOUR BEFORE YOU EVEN OWN ONE. MAKES NO SENSE.
will the iphone 5 have facetime with no wifi
Where are you getting your information. Alot of it sounds cool, but goes completely against was the majority of bloggers are claiming
everyone is downtalking att's network but really att has the best data network out their with the fastest speeds, att is faster that any 4g service out their and their only 3g.. what happened when att released their i-phone lines for days and back orders when verizon released the i phone no wait times no back orders slow speeds ect ect. att's goat is to be the biggest / fastest network. att has released that their buying t-moble so all u htc fans quit crying. also att made it a personal goal to have the nations best network by 2012.. so all you crying about att EAT MY SHIT
to those people who wants iphone get one now don't wait co'z after the iphone5 there comes iphone6 then you''ll end up not having an iphone experience..
I just got the iphone 4
ill wait for the 5 and then face off someone
OMG thats why i love apple they are the best....and for the writer nice review ;)
I am waiting for 5 release to get an iphone.
I am waiting for 5 release to get an iphone.
Well, iPhone 5 is coming out this summer but I think that's too much of an information, more thn half of it wouldn be on the phone, face off? What's heck? Don't even sound real
My daughters laptop has face recognition so it's very possible. Sounds a great safety feature ! ! !
Iphone 5? You gotta be kidding. Just wait for the Iphone 27 or 32 or 69. How about 10G? It's not that far ,is it?
Hi,
I am looking to buy the Iphone 5,as it will be my first smart phone.I had an Apple 11 in 1979 and it had 1M hard drive and 64k onboard,no floppy,no monitor A$1,400(I had to add TV and tape deck).I use to play Star Trek in black and white where the Klingons where the letter "K" and that is as good as it got......Now contrast to the Iphone 5.
Katherine thanks a lot for your information. But I'll wait for the IPhone 69 to come out. There gonna be flash player for sure.
I simply can't wait to see the look of the new Iphone 5...
I'm defenitelly bying it..
security face recognation... what more can I ask for...?
i think that iphone 5 going to have a big protest after there release because of all these ugly faces that they have to recognize daily
unfortunately i have been hearing and reading rumors that verizon will be recieving the iphone later then att because of the special contract they have with apple
What ever happen to the simpler way of communication. Live Face to Face to touch and feel. Not having to pay for it to company's like Verizon, AT&T, Sprint, and all those other carriers making us pay such high prices!
i phone 5 verry gool i love it
Omg soooo excited for the new iPhone 5 !!! Does anyone know when the phone is going to be released in Australia ?! Can't wait xD
epic fail of an article...
You absolutely suck at writing articles. Honestly, I want my 2 minutes back.
You obviously have no clue about computing. You talk about introducing dual cores on phones like my mum makes pies... And don't lie, you haven't investigated to spread the information. You have because you want to be as enchanted about a nice interface as the rest of apple fans. Your review is for apple wankers, and is not critical as you are not able to evaluate pros and cons.
I thought you had something useful to say?
most of the features you are talking about are a given. Duh...more processing power and graphics on the next gen device? really?!? thats....oh wait...obvious.
4G support - there are plenty of android based devices already supporting 4G technology. Built in GPS: Google Navigation...etc...etc
The only remotely intersting point you make is regarding the face recognition. However, there will have to be some kind of password override so security isn't really increased....
I am holding out for the iPhone 6 or the next Nokia? I am a Geek.
Nice comments lol.....
the REAL question is...should i buy an iphone5 with at&t?
my answer is 'NO'. My family and I have so much problem with at&t network. I have been with at&t for more than 18 years and we can not get signal from my home in Austin, Texas (NW). at&t told me that they will build more tower in the past 5 years but my new iphone4 show very weak signals. I just hoping that t-mobile would stand on it own and be better than at&t.
Apple, please protect your apple's customers by not let at&t damaged your reputation.
ThomasT from Austin, Texas (NW)
I just sat down and talked with my Verizon rep yesterday. It sounds like the iPhone 5 will be available this June. I originally went in to pick up and iPhone 4 to replace my Blackberry Storm, however, after looking at some of the other phones in store, I found that several other phones had plenty to offer. A few of them actually have a better platform than the iPhone 4. Don't get me wrong here, I have been waiting for Verizon to get the iPhone just like the rest of you! I'm just saying that there are other comparable (and possibly better) options. Personally I find this review to be biased. I feel like it's written to create hype and excitement on false premise. So, to anyone reading this, for what it matters, I would take half an hour out of your day to go talk to your Verizon (or other) rep to see what they have in store. You may find that there are other phones that are more capable for what you're looking for. As for me? I'm going to wait until the iPhone 5 comes out in June so i can check it out and make a fully informed decision.
Just a side note... The HTC Thunderbolt is a very impressive phone. I'm definitely considering it for my upgrade.
ohpi ehTne sucks and always will suck. Its a shame you have to pay,for an app you can get for free on android phones with built in,gps free portable wifi and already runing on 4g. The,iphone 5 will be four g thanks too the help of tmobile selling out to att.... Who by the way still cant figure out how to string both signals together to get 4g.,so,will,the,iphone 5 be 4g probably not especially with,thier shitty signals and bogus plans. Ho android and save youreself the time and money to get free stuff including 4g...
To anyone who actually supports Android. If you got yours after Verizon got the iPhone, then your just cheap. For every good thing you can name about Android I can name either something better about iPhone or something worse about Android.
Let's see the cons of Android
Far more Malware available than on iPhone. And will be that way until Google goes the Apple route and has to approve all apps that go into the market.
OS upgrades are in the hands of the phone makers instead of Google. This means a lot of Android phones will only get 1 or 2 OS upgrades and a lot will die with the same OS that came with their phone. Where as iPhone gets a guaranteed 2 years of upgrades.
Developers hate to develop for open source products because they feel most people who use open sourced products only use free products. So they put most of their time and effort developing for products like the iPhone thinking there's a better chance someone will buy products from them. And even if Android takes over 99% of the market that won't change developers way of thinking. They'll just see it as 99% of users are cheap and only want freeware.
Apps on both platforms, the iPhone apps are almost always more stable and polished. iPhone version apps also tend to be the first to get new features and if a company can only afford to develop for one OS, they focus on iOS (see Meebo who started on Android but hasn't updated their Android version since 2009 yet constantly update their iOS version)
Finally since Android is open sourced phone makers can load their phones up with junkware. That can't be uninstalled without root your Android phone.
Seeing as I have a Motorola Cliq and an iPod Touch 2G (I will be getting an iPhone 5), I can tell you the advantages Android have are very few in numbers compared to iOS. Like a lot of Android phones do offer a slide-out keyboard which benefits those who text and IM a lot. Android also offers flash (2.2 OS and up) where as iOS doesn't. But these are small things in comparison of what iPhone brings to the table. And while Android 3.0 is better than iOS 4.x now, Wait a year on your Android 3.0 phone because after that year, chances are the iPhone 4 will have the better OS as chances are your Android phone will only get one or two updates after the first year.
My Cliq is a year newer than my iPod Touch 2G and yet my iPod Touch 2G got it's very last OS update AFTER my Cliq's one and only upgrade, and my iPod Touch 2G received the latest current available OS at the time. My Cliq died with an upgrade to an older OS available with features disabled (2.1 when 2.3 was already available).
Iphone 5 Will still be 3g ...its getting the same upgrades that the ipad2 got over the ipad.
I'll buy it as soon as possible if it will not be locked to specific carrier...
Im getting it the day it comes out, dont care if its locked to a network, ill jailbreak it in the first week :)
You guys need to just be patient. Don't make predictions about the iPhone 5 when apple hasn't released any information about it. Just wait for them to release information to the public. Some of the content in this article might be correct. I'm not trying to sound annoyed at all. I'm an apple fan but I'm not going to trash talk other phones when I've never used them. I'll compare the phones and try to get the best one. By the way, AT&T isn't really bad. I have had AT&T for a long time and I have to say that I'm happy with the company. Also, where did you get your information in this article? No affense, but you're misleading people about the iPhone and other phones competing with it. Although your article was mostly guessing, I have to say that it was entertaining to read.
still have the 1st generation iPhone, a gift from my aunt, had to unlock it to be able to use it. no complaining, it is still working but cant upgrade from iTunes. maybe i'll but iPhone 5 when its out.
iphone 4 is a great device, but the PPM1 is looking real good!
Until the first Iphone, cell phones were clam-shell flip-phones or boring little candy-bars. Just as; until the first mac computer, the all-in-one turquoise-green mac, all computers were beige boxes separate from keyboards and monitors. Copy-cats invariably catch up and surpass innovators in the look-and-feel department, but rarely in the "intent-and-execution" department. We need innovators.
what price will the iphone 5 start at father of 3 kids running a small bussines may have to stay with i phone 4 still be good . new toy to play with.
Ill wait for iPhone 107... soon to come... Lots of better features than iPhone 106.
Writeup by a iPhone fanatic, mostly crap. Seeing new rumors about iPhone 5. Wait and watch.
I have all the apple idevices iPod iPhones n iPad just not
Ipad2 I like the devices but loovvveeee the jailbreaks that's all I like
About buying the apple product it's the jailbreaks that's makes aplenty
Idevices so popular
can't wait to get my hands on iphone 5. I would suggest that the size should be reduced and more colors should be available beside black and white. Navy blue color would be awesome.
Looking foward to the iPhone 5!!! :D
Read ma name
Half of the "upcoming features" are already in the iphone 4....
wew so awesome man . . .
that is great phone right ???
bad boy phone
HI FOLKS!
I HAVE AN HTC Desire HD (workphone)
and an Iphone 4 (personal use)
and i must say Apple iphones are the better phone, and android OS is most certainly not the way of the future! sorry folks but i can see android lasting a very short period of time as google just simply doesnt have the skills required to overturn apple !
To be honest the HTC is the more user friendly phone but doesnt look as good or perform anywhere near the iphone when it comes to compiling data.
I've never read so much rubbish in my life!
Speaking as a technology consultant I am qualified to say that you quite clearly know nothing about phone hardware and the latest technologies.
There are loads of phones that are technically far better than the iPhone and the Android operating system is now just as easy to use as Apple's IOS with far more features if you want to take advantage of them.
Android is also far easier for developers to get into and make money from and it has already overtaken iPhone with the number of apps available.
All these specs relating to iPhone 5 are completely made up and just fanboy dreams.
Apple MIGHT release an iPhone 5 this year but there is no official word on any of this. They generally release a new one around a year after the last but it's not set in stone and for the next big Apple conference they have already said there will be no big hardware realease so it might not be happening this year.
For those of you putting off buying an iPhone based on this site, you may have a very long and disappointing wait!
My advice is buy the latest top spec HTC or Samsung Android phone now and you will have a phone that is already way ahead of the next iPhone, 100% guaranteed!
Take a look at the Apple website and read all the latest features that are included in any of Apples new or forthcoming products and you will find that they are features that other manufacturers have been selling for at least a year or more. They make some great looking and very well built products but don't let their amazing marketing machine fool you into thinking they are at the forefront of anything. They just try to make that same tech cool and popular a year or 2 after it's been done by others!
hhhm still not the perfect phone, same as old iphone, nothing new application, like built in television i think its cool....
hhhm still not the perfect phone, same as old iphone, nothing new application, like built in television i think its cool....
Why do you guys think that Apple is pretty much making the iPhone 4 to order? They are keeping their stock as low as possible so they aren't stuck with as many as they were with the 3GS
I'm going to get the ITouch 5th gen. It should have most of the features (3d, dual core, gps, etc) but it will only be $250 AUS.
I just want to thank all the people who believe in the Iphone. I assure you that Iphone5 will be state of the art. One of the most innovative pieces of technology ever been introduced to mankind. I will have my keynote posted in http://www.apple.com/iphone. Your wait is over.
Thank you once again for supporting apple.
Thanks Steve for your candor. I do believe that Iphone is great. I would like to let all you smart phone lovers know that Windows is shortly coming out with smarter phone. This phone will blow your mind. We are in the process of developing a phone that will actually think for you. This phone will definitely be the one.
Your wait is over.
will the iphone 5 be coming out in a white colour ? because i have wanted a white iphone for ages and i would buy this if it was to come in white ;)
Just got my brand new iPhone 5 today and I don't like it one bit. If anyone wants to buy it from me email murphysfan@hotmail.com. I will sell for £50
i have a question how much do you estimate how much it well coast if you have a up grade around the time the iphone 5 comes out ?
Nice review of the new generation of apple's cellphone, it's gonna be brilliant and I'm totally believe in steve jobs so cant wait to buy one of those \m/
I'll wait until the iPhone 5 official specs are out before I decide, interesting to learn about the speculation all the same. Oooh, btw the plural of iPhone is iPhones, not iPhone's.
She's obviously a troll... you all got trolled
TROLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
Nice phon
I don't know if it will be released in June. No guarantees... Perfection takes time :)
No the I Phone 5 will not be released until Q4, we will not be releasing it in the UK or US until at least September 2011, Thank you for all your comments and support. Until then I am sorry but angry birds and the amazing I Phone 4 will have to surfice.
My Boyfriend is an Apple freak he has everything Apple, ipad, iphone, laptop he even said if Appl brings out a toilet seat he'll buy it!
To be honest I'm a little sick of the IPhone just because of my bf I was thinking of going for the HTC Desire HD only because of the rumors saying IPhone 5 may not come out this year and I'm in a desperate need for a new phone as my current IPhone is broken :(
Any suggestions on whether I should wait? or get the HTC until the Iphone 6 comes out?
Look like want get a new I Phone 5 still need a long time
so sad
You guys should really read non-iphone tech blogs to see what is going on in the real world. This article first statement is that iPhone 5 will revolutionise your world because of a dual processor - this is and has been available in the market for some time. The list goes on.....everything the iPhone 5 is offering ie already on the market. In addition call quality - the real reason for having a mobile phone is terrible on Apple! Do yourself a favour and shop around before you make another emotional purchase!
I dont knowif i should buy iphone 4 now ore wait fore iphone 5? :-/
I dont think so iphone 5 will be releasing that soon... wil be releasing in 2012 early .
My only question is: without a spec sheet it's all here say, so why are you talking like this is actually true?? apple sucks and will always be for children looking to play games.
No way until mid of 2012.
ciaokatherine you're an idiot
You sir are an idiot,
there is actually nothing special about what you just described up there, dual core? already have that with android. Currently the Iphone can't stand up to android phones, some of which can double Iphones RAM. The Camera on the Iphone 4 sucks, 5 megapixels is crap. Android has been running 4g for a year now as well. Motorola Atrix has a longer battery life than the one you just speculated upon. overall, this seems to be a trolled article.
Have to agree with the comment above, and plus that face recognition sounds like a load of bull. seriously
The features you list is a joke right?
They can make it do back flips for I care. Until someone can produce a calendar app that comes close to MS Outlook, it's useless to me.
Are people seriously debating the best phone?? That's really just an opinion. You like what you like, someone else might like something different. No big deal! I have had every iPhone, 1 through 4 and I'll be pre-ordering the iphone 5. I'm beyond excited! Mac girl forever. I own it all. Yay me!
I'm a little confused why you think the iphone having a dual core phone is "revolutionary". There is already a dual core android phone available, with 2 or 3 more coming out next month....
Very strong fanboyism in here
Will the iPhone 5 come with a roll of duct tape in order to make it work?
Give me a Android phone any day!!
Man you guys get reall into nerd talk huh?
the iphone needs bigger screen, if it doesnt have it im not interested in the least, there,s lots of dual core phones out that will match or beat the iphone , apple needs to keep up with the times plain and simple, I was bored with the iphone 4 very quickly, hope the 5 does better
iphone5 rocks!!!
apple fanboy much?
Can iPhone 5 transfer files using bluetooth? May be iPhone 10? Dual core and fancy displays has nothing to do with some basic stuff like this one.
As a wireless employee for the largest network in the USA, let me include this. First other then the dual core processor that seems to be manditory for use on an LTE network, the Andriod platform already has included this in their new phones (ie: Motorola and HTC) Naturally this will be a must for Apple to compete in the smartphone area. Second although Verizon has already launched their 4g network in selected areas, At&t's launch in June in 75% of there network will give you better coverage. Third AT&T's dual talk and surf atvantage makes a clear choice for providers. Fourth with 6 month left on your contract you will be eligible for an early iphone upgrade, call customer care for more information. Fifth, will Blackberry ever really catch up after an Iphone 5 release?
How fucking stupid do u have to be to buy an iphone 5 when u already own an iphone. Utter pointless consumer whores, please die. You dont need to spend another wad of cash on something with a few extra features that u probably wont even use. You moron sheep make it far too easy for apple. Why not just empty your bank accounts directly into Steve Jobs account. Stupidity at its zenith.
Im really excited cant wait its going to change they way phones work hope they don't change the release date it screen is going to be bigger Screen thank good ness
The designer of the iphone doesnt have much imagination, so im thinking it will be all the same with a little bit more performance.
I can't wait to get my iphone5s. Compared to my old cell phones, the new iphone5s look vet cool to me. I hope they do come out around summertime as that when my current att contract is up.
so bad for you, android comes with unbeatable google maps / gps standard...you forgot to mention the outrageous price this phone will have with such memory.. things apple still think they have to be overpriced... how about freedom from itunes, is that coming with iphone 5 too??? I bet no... poor itunes/apple slaves....
The iPhone 5 is due this summer. Until then, you can check out Google operated devices that currently surpass the iPhone 4, such as the Galaxy S lineup.
@Steve Jobs: Apparently an imposter such as yourself would absurdly claim that the iPhone will be released in September 2011. Unfortunately, your misleading guidance is false, as the planned month of release is July.
-Steve
when the ip5 will be alunched
I think the writer is crazy :),
:(): :(): :():
Looking fwd to IP5, interesting read, appreciate your excitement, long live iPhone,
I am waiting for it !!!! Hope it comes out early this year
Half of this information is just ridiculous. HD audio?? Extra crisp?? Hmm that's just the way I like my audio, ... crispy. Seriously though apple never says anything about what it is going to implement in the next iphone prior to releasing it. How could you possible know there is going to be face recognition software? Or 64GB storage? Don't get me wrong I came onto this site because I love apple products and I would love nothing more than extra crisp audio.. but it's kind of crazy to say "this is what expected.." and then start listing off stuff that no one outside of apple actually knows. If you want a more reliable source try CNET or GIZMODO or The New York Times. They report on either fact or information from a reliable internal source... one which you are most certainly not.
I hope they go with more than just a dual core considering the PSP2 will have a quad core that is for "A5" actually called A9 since it will be quad. Actually the psp2 is everything the IPAD2 has x2 lol. I hope the Iphone 5 is more brilliant then that.

@Steve Jobs You both are wrong- 2012.
I heard the new iPhone will grant you three wishes...
I like the iphone but i hate atnt so get the iphone 5 but not atnt
Nice post!!! Got me even more excited lol! I currently own iphone 4 already but im deff buyin iphone 5!!!
when will it come out in UK? and how much will it cost on a 12 or 24 month contract? IM EXCITED im soooo getting it when it comes out, will be my first iphone i have been tempted to get the iphone 4 but will hold it off till the 5 comes out! :D
MMMMM THREE WISHES
face recognition? that's a cool idea but not in the philippines. they can do anything and everything out here.
Don't wanna be a party pooper but... this is it? I mean, that's all? You call that groundbreaking? come on. I was thinking of the iphone 4 but the iphone 5 and the Samsung galaxy S II are coming soon, so i will wait. But if you call the iphone 5 groundbreaking with these specs what would you say about the new galaxy? 4.3inch Super Amoled PLUS screen, 1.2Ghz dual core CPU (EXYMOR OR NVIDIA TEGRA 2) with a dedicated gpu, 1gb ram, 32 gb internal memory and you can have a 32gb microsd card (TOTAL 64GB), NFC, 8mp camera with flash and 1080p video recording at 30fps and ADOBE FLASH 10.2. I like iphones but they can't compete with the likes of Xperia Arc and Galaxy S II
U need a bunk up love
Ok so here's the deal. Apple just plain sucks. It is not the at&t network because if you knew anything you would know that the problems continue or even INCREASE when you unlock and use on another carrier. also Motorola and samsung already have dual core processor phones that have better cameras than anything apple has rumored and better displays as well. iphone's just a name you can do pretty much EVERYTHING the iphone does AND MORE on an androind. I dont hate apple, hell i love the latest macbook, but they are just too conceited and not willing to let the people putting money in their pockets do more with their equiptment. If the iphone 5 allows you to customize the HOME screen (that doesnt exist currently on any iphone) and have a seperate app screen without having to jailbreak it and also have REAL HD capabilities such as record in 720 or 1080 and have 1080 playback then i'd jump right in with all the other followers.
Wow my contract with T-mobile is expireing and I was looking to get an iphone 4 throught Verizon but now! oh I am definitley waiting for this!
Um sorry to break your bubble but Android has most of those fore mentioned features now. Androids right now don't have face recognition security but the Moto Atrix has finger recognition. Which may not be as cool but probably more efficient and functional. They have duo core processors now and have had GPS for awhile. And also HD video Output(Forget HD audio). I know your hub is a bit out of date but clearly you underestimated the power of android. Kudos for you for hating on android. I guess the world is delirious cause we already have those features.
32G space and 64G memory? dont forget the 16-core, 128G processor. the iPhone 5 will truly be groundbreaking.
Apple has two intriguing recent patents that focus on 3D: a 3D screen that would allow users to see the effect without 3D glasses, and a small 3D camera, which, by way of three separate camera sensors would allow users to actually create and render 3D images themselves. Once deployed in a mobile device like an iPhone, this tandem of 3D inventions would most certainly turn mobile computing on its head: combined with gesture control as seen on the iPhone and iPad, it could even allow users to navigate their gadgets in a third dimension. That’s some futuristic stuff!
Whether or not 3D technology could show up on the iPhone 5, however, remains to be seen.
its dumbasses like these who keep those fake rumors going around...just wait instead of all these guessing and hoping...stop creating things to throw in peoples heads...unless your have hard facts and visual proof...shut up....everyone who believes rumors are retards....until they give you visual proof with the hard facts.....ignore all this mumbo jumbo they throw around to keep your headache running longer
What exactly was groundbreaking about the iPhone 4? Retina display? Amazing. Apple fanboys/girls are all morons.
I will not buy the iPhone 5, but the iPod Touch 5 ;D
Personally, no offense, I don't think iphones are so great. They are overpriced (come on, admit it!), they are the only phones with ios which means there isn't as good of widespread- multiple device feedback, and they aren't android. Many android phones such as the Droid Incredible, EVO!, Incredible S, Atrix, Thunderbolt, etc. do the same things as the iphone's (call, text, email, get apps, surf web, good multimedia, and video calls) and more. My Droid Incredible does all those things, yet also let's me use HTC Sense UI, have 7 highly, highly customizable homescreens, blazing fast speeds, and being part of HTC's dominant uprissing.
But, I still think the iphone's are in the top 5 best phones ever lists!
I'm SUPER excited. Currently I have the 3GS, and I'm planning on keeping it until iPhone 5 comes out.
Hey! yo !TY;
You need to shut up!! you're the dumbass and retard!!
UNDERSTOOD!!!
Hi there,
I was really interested to read your post iPhone 5 review. I work for a major mobile network in the UK called Vodafone. We have recently received confirmation that the iPhone 5 will be released this year, BUT not in July as is expected. It will be being released in mid November. Due to the high demand their is expected to be for the iPhone 5 Apple have decided to have a few more months in production to make their stock levels higher globally for the launch. We also know that the iPhone 5 will have a touch sensitive 'Home' button, rather than a actual button. Unfortunately I'm not allowed to say anymore of the details about the iPhone 5 but I will say that the pictures we have received are amazing. Also I just wish to point out that some of the stuff you have said in you review is only rumours and hasn't actually made it onto the final version. But very interesting to read :)
I am an Apple Consultant and I am here to say that the iPhone 5 will not be available until December of 2012. The information that has been released about the iPhone is true but it will not be available soon. The minimum circulation time for an iPhone is 14-16 months.
I just got an iPhone 3GS and now I hate myself for it. WHY?????? WHY????????? By the way you people posting three hundred word comments, Its called a comment and not an essay for a reason.
another apple fanboy writing a biased article on the supposed features of the iphone 5. I stopped reading after "As if the 20 gigawatt gazillion megapixel already in the iPhone 4 wasn't enough...". We all know apple was pretty slow in offering a phone with decent camera resolution. Not a market leader in this dept.
why are you jumping to the conclusion that the new iphone, who knows what it'll be called, will have all this stuff? please, just tell us what you want it to have instead of making up that theyre saying all this, cos in reality, theyre not saying anything
I am going to buy 100 of them and give them to Iron Maiden fans !
IRONS FOREVER !!!
Wow!I will defenatly will buy the iphone5! I mean WOW! This is a great website!
Iphone 5 is going to be launched in July 2011;)
nice post, and i support lesbians
I'm happy with my 3G.
I am excited, yet apprehensive. 1.) I hope Verizon will be up and running on 4G by October, when my AT&T contract expires. 2.) I hope the iPhone 5 won't be ridiculously priced and hoping for $399 with a 2-year Verizon contract. 3.) I hope Verizon 4G service will be reasonably priced, even with an employee discount. I may continue with my AT&T service month-by-month (rather than a two year contract) until everything above is in place... or just purchase the IPhone 4 with 3GS through Verizon. Lots of question marks are floating around right now!
When the 3G came out I thought it was the best thing apple would bring out until the 3GS came out. It was twice as fast as the 3G and bigger memory. The iPhone 4 just smashed the old iPhones and every other heap of shit phones. I'll wait in line to get the new iPhone 5 can't wait. Once you've owned an iPhone you can't go back to anything else. There are only 2 types of phones..iPhones and non iPhones
Your comment about the HTC Evo made me think you really need to watch this
I lown 2 of the 1st iP4s reased in 2010.
The features I look forward to most is the doubling of
memory and speed, wifh 64GB flash memory & A5 dual
processor chip. I would like to have wireless A/V HD signals to
external monitors. Since I cracked one of my two glass screens
before Apple (or anyone else, for that matter) had bumpers or
cases (thank you Square Trade warranty...!), so hardened glass
would be a welcome addition.
Mark
Any ideas on release dates? I held off on the iPhone 4 and have been waiting for the 5, which I originally heard was coming out in June - Recently I heard and have read lots of rumors online that it will be delayed and be fall 2011. My poor iPhone 3 is on it's last leg and I'm trying to decide if I continue to wait or if I just go get the 4.
Sorry to say but this author is a complete idiot. The iphone 5 isn't gonna revolutionize shit.
Dual Core: The Atrix beat the iphone to the punch
4G: Thunderbolt beat iphone to the punch
Memory: Thunderbolt comes with 40GB and Atrix comes with 16GB and memory card up to 32 gb whereas I can guarentee Iphone still not be supporting memory cards
Ram: Atrix has 1GB
Screen: Atrix has gorilla glass
GPS: Uh I'm pretty sure phones had GPS ability well before the iphone 5
And this is just as of 4/11. Higher spec phones are coming out in the summer and later in the year like the droid bionic, samsung charge, and evo 3d. Not to mention the moto targa is slated to be a quad-core phone with an olympus camera. Now THAT is revolutionary.
Iphone will be successful because of its loyal fanbase, and people's preference to iOS but never will it be because of the phones hardware because it is not at all better than its android competitors.
@Johnny, completely agree with you. This article feels like it's been written by a teenager that got their first phone. Also the bigger screen sizes on android phones make a huge difference for me. 4.3" screens make a huge difference when browsing the net or watching movies. Pretty sad to see that this article is the first page on google when you search "iphone 5"
No of the things described here are true. Non are facts. As a matter a fact, this is the worst post I have ever read. All this post is a bunch of assumptions from a retarded iPhone female fanatic. How horrible. Take this garbage ass article down. Complete bullshit. Non of the technology expected to b in the new iPhone has yet to be leaked or even spoken about thus this girl has made a fool of herself describing what she thinks will b in the next phone. What a dumbass. U get a 0 and a FAIL.
I HATE Apple, I HATE Steve Jobs, and I HATE fanboys and fangirls that have no rational reasons for liking anything apple other than they think it's cool to have the "iLogo" on everything. The Nazi empire will fall once people realize that Jobby-Jobs is totally happy using substandard designs, substandard components and price gouging all the willing lesser intelligent types (yes, Apple is guilty all), but the general public needs to understand that the cutesy image is just that... an image. Sadly there are too many image conscious people in the world today that will buy this crap (Apple anything) instead of actually testing out the products on the market before buying, researching and reviewing devices before committing so they understand the quality and compatibility of their chosen device, and choosing a network and plan that fits their needs before committing blindly. iPhone5? Go iPhuck yourself.
I think I'm inlove with you...
the truth i agree with you
You should google the definition of delirious before using it on the interwebs.
wow.. got somethin balled up in here... keep it comin
im deffinetly going to buy...i hope its not $500 with plan. i already bought a iphone 4 for verizon...so idk how ill be getting the phone, but best believe i will get it on its release date!
Whoever wrote this article is a complete and utter moron...apple products suck point blank period...and if these are the only specs that excite you, then my friend you pretty easily excited. I havent seen one thing that the iphone 5 is being revolutionary about....Im sticking with DROID
I currently have the 3gs. But I am really researching Droid heavy.
To be honest I think ill buy the iPhone 4 and have that for a while before thinking about 5. To me, iPhone 4 does more than enough.
Unless the iphone 5 is 3d i wont be buying it this year. i will be going with the LG optimus 3d or the HTC EVO 3D. the iphone 5 needs to be 3d otherwise its going to let the competion ahead and lose loyal customers, me being one of them.

i work at verizon and the iphone 5 has nothing anywhere near the new android phones that are releasing this year. there will be phones with dual processor and even a quad processor. the only reason apple had to step up is because it keeps getting beat. also, android market allows you to personalize and customize your phone much more than the iphone will.
I am not an Apple lover or hater. So I can usually stay unbiased. I will say this. They build a damn good device. But I tend to stick to the Ipod touches. All the functionality of the iphone (minus the phone). Its redundant to say that the iphone 5 will have a faster processor and better graphics chip. Thats a given. For a device to upgrade, without an upgrade, would be a company without common sense. and I must say, thats one thing Apple does have. I'm more interested into what speed the dual core processor would be carrying, and truthfully, 4G is not worth the hassle until they manage to gain more coverage (2012) as well as a more efficient battery life. 7 hours isnt bad for 4G, but every phone sounds amazing on paper. One thing Apple has yet to do is give the EXTREMELY outdated OS a complete makeover. We live in a world of customization, from cars, to our phones. Yet Apple has not picked up on this phenomenon as of yet (apparently going to have a makeover with iOS 5). As of today, I think Android is so popular due to the less restrictive, more customizable device. I don't own either, but I believe I'll wait for the Incredible 2 on Verizon. Tried and True 3G coverage, Super LCD screen, great battery life/camera. Just an all around good device. Something no company has really figured out yet.
Wow ! How Much Is That ?
ill want to buy this iphone when it comes out, it sounds like better than the 4th
write more of this article, you give me hope, I can't neither!
It's kinda funny how worked up people get about this stuff, it's just some random who doesn't kno anything about technology writing what they think is groundbreaking. I recently purchased an iPhone 4 and its my first smart phone and I have to say I'm impressed with it. My only qualms with it is the lack of ringtone customization but other than that it does it's job and more, makes calls when it needs to.
To all you tech junkies talking about 4G and 3D and all that bs making phones better: your retarded phones make calls anything else is a bonus. If you want to use your phone and have shit popping out at you and get headaches and nausea and potential brain damage, then you deserve it. Get off your phone and meet people and maybe get laid, cause life is in 3D duh. And ATT doesn't suck and they will have 4G cause they own t-mobile now and probably Verizon in the near future.
I have had every IPhone that has come out on the market, and I will buy the IPhone 5 ... I go to Starbucks and like using my IPhone to pay for my coffee "there's an app for that!"
does anybody know approximate price for sim free 32GB and when is about to come ???
There is no way it will have 64GB nor will it be revolutionary. Apples has already had heating issues with the single core processor over heating a dual core could melt the whole phone. A mini usb connection or a version of iOS that includes a finder/explorer program and functions more like a full operating system would be the only thing that would convince me to stay with Apple. I like my iPhone but Samsung, LG and Motorola seem to be going a better direction at the moment. Any phones with quad cores coming out in the next year or so?
lesser phones? you must be talking about iphones when you say that lol android forever cause i can videochat wherever i want! and customize it!
Well iv played around the iphone4 and i got to say, even after jailbreak, the things apple offers are way less than what android offers without rooting.
As for your iphone5, there's nothing it has to actually claim it's ground breaking.
1. Dual Core, ye like they had any other choice if they were to compete with newer phones.
2. 4inch display, like the older galaxy s and xperia android phones
4. 64GB, clearly you know nothing about technology, it won't be 64GB
5. Video chat, like the old p1i or nokia n73 phones?
I'm sorry, but with phones that have no glass 3D and can easily overclock, iphone has to come up with something amazing and the only thing i can think is maximising the use of that new nfc chip on phones. Make it easy to pay bills like you do with phones in Japan. Otherwise this is the begining of the end.
Damn woman ur dumb as a rock.... 20 gigawatt pixels.... u must be blonde!!!... ur the dumbest fuck in the whole world!!! dual core comes as a standard in most of the phones coming out now a day.... and if you think 32GB to 64GB is enough to store all the info in your pc... U DONT DESERVE TO HAVE A PC!!!! dumb blondie....
When will we have holographic imagery, wifi syncing, and video projection?
When will we have holographic imagery, wifi syncing, and video projection?
Gurl thanks for the info us apple heads have to stick together, I appreciate the time you took out to do this. Your info was very helpful keep up the good work. APPLE FOR EVER!!!!
I have a 3GS and it works well minus battery life. My contract is up in July and would like to ask droid users what is the perks of them? Are they that much more customizable compared to a jailbroken iPhone? Or is it just more preference? Any advice appreciated.
Yes. can't wait for it to come out. I think i'm the only who hasn't had or experienced iphone.
catastrophically unprofessional.
You did not put on What this hub...Stupid and annoying. You are an I Phone geek that knows nothing about other phones. I feel sorry for you.
I will definitely buy iphone 5 but i would really like to see it would be rounded again and not squared ...
You are a noob...I feel sorry for you as you've wasted an inordinate amount of your life typing this article while also adding useless information to the growing collection of data stored on the web.
Please refrain from posting with your apple noobness
Who wrote this article? Sounds like a 5th grader's english
I've had all the iPhone models and loved each one .....But have you seen the HTC HD7! It's sooo cool, sooo fast. I'm chopping my iPhone 4 in for one now. By by Apple.
I have had an iphone 3g, a WP7 phone (Samsung Focus) and an Adndriod (HTC Inspire). Having tried them all, the iphone is the hands-down, best smart phone in the marketplace. All you Android evangelists who hate Apple need to realize that Android is a good platform, but it's a mess since different mfg's implement the interface differently. Also, where is the ease in syncing with a computer? And many banks charge currency exchange fees when you purchase apps on their marketplace (Fix that Google). WP7 OS is still too immature, but it will definately be a strong contender after a few more updates (add copy and paste, better browser features, etc). The iphone is a solid device with the best app selection of them all. It's one bad feature is iTunes. iTunes is horrible! Zune software for the WP7 is what iTunes should aspire to be. Other than that, the iPhone is the perfect smart phone. IMHO!!
Everyone who thinks that the iPhone 5 is going to have 4G service is nuts! Look how long it took apple to provide 3G service with the older iPhones. Apple does not put anything into their products without years of research. It won't be until the iPhone 6 next year that will provide 4G service.
I just got the freakin' iphone 1 and I think its freakin' amazing, with the iphone 5, i'm gonna get it, turn it on, and my head will explode
If Mac is such a revolutionary company, they should become conflict free. Now that's revolutionary.
First of all, Apple has been rather secretive with their products (just look at what happened to Jason Chen from Gizmodo) so I doubt that just by inquiring at a local Apple Store would allow you get super-top-secret-inside info.
Next, the camera on the iPhone 4 isn't "20 gigawatt gazillion megapixels" it stands at a mere 5 megapixels. Also, let me quote a part that I found particularly interesting.
"In fact, one of the reasons behind the increase in Jailbreaks of the iPhone 4 was that AT&T's network had way too many problems with it. Rather than deal with AT&T a lot of people ended up jailbreaking their phones instead, a fair deal considering you can get free ringtones, themes, and apps when you jailbreak your phone."
Yeah, it is true that once you jailbreak your phone it allows you to get free applications, but AT&T is in no way affiliated with Apple's applications store or music store. So yeah, I kind of doubt that just by changing network provider people would stop jailbreaking their phone.
Again, let me quote something peculiar.
"The lowest model will come with 32G of space and 64G of memory. I'll be able to store my whole computer on the lowest model of the iPhone 5. Yippeee for me."
32G of space and 64G of memory. If I am not mistaken the "space" and "memory" you are referring to would be the same thing wouldn't it? Also, many Android phones
are capable of storing far beyond amount of memory because many Android phones have expandable memory. (P.S. if your computer only capable of holding 64 gigabytes then I feel sorry for you.)
Dual-core processors, eh? If I'm not mistaken Android phones have them already!
The Android Market is another example of Android's superiority over Apple. If you were to take a look around there you would see that it is entirely open. There are no restrictions or bans. Unlike, Apple's App Store that is essentially a gated community.
Is it just me or does five hundred dollars seem like a lot for a phone. Are you serious, I could buy a netbook for the same price and it would be far faster.
BAM! Did you hear that? That was the HTC EVO 3D's slick 1.2 GHz dual-core Snapdragon processor breaking the sound barrier. Looks like the iPhone has got some catching up to do.

@meatcleaver
Hey, I definitely agree with you but the proper spelling of n00b is n00b.
The upcoming samsung galaxy s2 is a contender for the iPhone5. It runs on a quad core processor, has better graphics, better camera, and video chat.
Well,well,well another Apple fan person!Most of apple fans are trapped in their own matrix. People trust me there is another reality that exist outside of the Steve Jobs Matrix ok!! Free your minds and unplug and come back to the real reality. What is the real reality? The real reality is there are other got damn!!! phones that are just as good if not better than the iphone4 and soon to be iphone5. As long as you are trapped in the matrix there are resistance fighters who are trying to unplug you!!! The author of this article cant be unplugged because she is a sentinel guarding the iphone matrix. There are many phones on many platforms that can compete with the iphones these days. See just a few yrs ago Apple iphone people could feel good knowing that they had the biggest baddest phones out there, but guess what Neo aka as android was waking up and when he fully awakened he exposed the iphone matrix and started doing battle!!! Its ok to falsely believe the Iphones are the best but come out of your matrix and realize the real Zion does exist!! Word of note to you Matrix Iphoners did you think the EVO AKA NEO was just going to sit around and wait on you to continue to entrap peoples minds NO!!!!! The EVO 3D is here comming out this summer!!! It has already been nominated for several best phone of the yr awards even before release date!!!!
when will this glorious piece of phone be coming to us? i wantie
i got the iPhone4 NOW!!! of course i'm gettin the iPhone5... duh!!! #TheGRIND #LetsWIN
As amazing as all of these spec for the iPhone 5 sound, the iPhone has always been completely loaded (in terms of physical capacity.) It seems unreasonable to expect (and fairly fictional) that the iphone 5 has twice the processors, higher precision speakers and a bigger battery and yet be smaller than the iPhone 4. The iPhone 4 was larger than the 3Gs and other than a face-time camera and retina display, you don't really see that much of a difference between 3Gs and i4. I would be more receptive to the idea of an increases power or even dual core CPU, but I don't think they will see a need to boost the battery life (unless through creative RAM usage and virtual memory utilization.)
im sooo excited.... i have the samsung galaxy and its sooooooooooooooo bad, i cant wait! im going from tmobile to hopefully verizon. great article!!!
Of course there is a new iPhone coming.... They create new models yearly people!
Living in Canada I've got a little longer wait than my friends to the south. Have a Blackberry Storm now. Most of my family has a blackberry and my friends have iphones. Well you know what they say "the Lord gives us our relitaves but thank God we can choose our friends" lol Can't wait for my new iphone5 Ya!!!!
will it cost 500 with the contract??????
I find my iPhone 3GS frustrating because it cant handle simple meetings with any grace. You cant invite attendees to a meeting from the phone when entering a calendar item. THe iPhone cant handle changes to calendar items made in outlook and sent to the iPhone. Its just crap. The iPhone fails at this simple smart phone task that has been competently handled by smartphones I owned years ago.
Thanks for the update. I am not sure whether you are aware of the fact that Motorola Atrix is dual core and is offered on 4g network, but downloads on Attrix aren't super fast as I had expected, and I would highly doubt it if it will be any faster on Iphone 5 unless telecom players upgrade their infrastructures for the next generation mobile devices.
You have also compared IOS to ANDROID, they are both robust and good in their own ways, one really cannot say that one is better or faster than the other, both do and will have flaws as well.
With regards to the faster graphics card, Apple is already ahead of the game, but I am sure, other manufacturers will deploy such fast video cards as well.
Over all, I think spending close to a $1000,00 or tied to a three year contract for a cell phone with the provider is just downright silly. Yes, providers are now looking into killing the two year contract and rolling out three year contract.
Android is cheap poser ass
It's funny that it takes all these companies to try to take out apple
Have fun with your virus riddled phones pretenders
Iphone is nothing...seen it and has been done long ago by companies who have better understanding of the consumer market..
also Iphone crashes alot, i HAD an iphone 4, lost all my data, went to apple and they didnt help coz my phone was purchased in the US and i was in Asia on long business tripp...called apple support and in US and they told me to shove it ....after 30 min wait on intl dialling rate.
got really pissed and smashed the phone to the shops window and shouted its your...2 days later got arrested for vandalism lo;, but i can tell you that it was worth the 6 hours in the police station haahaha
anyway buy w/e just stay away from iphone.
I use a nokia e 72 and an iphone 4 and what i find daunting in the iphone 4 is the 3g network issue.I get a good 3g network on the nokia whereas it always show an 'o' whenever i want to use the internet .I get 3g everywhere on my nokia unlesss i go to any country area.I dont know if people experience the same issue.Are they going to fix this when the next one comes out
You have no knowledge of technology whatsoever do you?
Just traded in my Motorola Droid for my first iPhone. I like the look, feel, and sound quality of the iPhone. Battery life has been good. However, I find that most of free apps I ran on my Droid all have a price attached to them with the iPhone. Apple can't provide something as simple as an LED on the outside to let me know I missed a call, have voicemail, or a waiting text message. Microsoft Exchange support works well, but is very, very basic compared to what I had on the Droid. How come some of the screens can be displayed in landscape, but not others? They all could on the Droid. In portrait mode, the keyboard on the iPhone sucks - especially if you have a case on it and want to reach the letters on the outside of the keyboard. Showstoppers? probably not, but functionally, the Droid has more...
If I can hack it I'll have it lol:)
"anyone who says Android based cell phones are going to be able to compete with the new iPhone 5 are completely delirious. They won't even come close to the capabilities offered by the new iPhone when it comes out. "
and you base this statement on what? you don't even know what features it will have....
Ok...So you never got to the point when is it coming out?
i know iphone 5 is coming in the summer without a doubt
btw, i live in New Zealand, so when u say $500, how much is that here exactly? that is if u live somewhere else i mean. Because the iPhone4 here costs like $1100 for like a 16GB memory so imagine what it would cost if it was the 32GB. so if you could just tell me that'd be great! =D and thank you for the useful information btw ^^ i found it very helpful and you have officially convinced me to wait for the iPhone 5 =]
May 1st Samsung Galaxy S II (uk)
I phone 5 R.I.P.
HTC Sensation + Samsung Galaxy S II = Byebye Iphone 5 :(
Youre ridiculous for even thinking that the mighty power of android cant compete with the frankly outdated apple rubbish :)
I can't wait, plain and simple, people who BASH the iphone are on a network that doesn't offer the iphone. Someday they'll grow-up and step-up
I want an Iphone but don't have that kind of money to spend when your a widowed mom of two kids... :(
nice post.
I mean seriously iphone 4 was great hopefully iphone 5 will be super..
and 3g is slow?? really ??
Sorry to say but from the rumors of the iphone 5 specs I've been reading about, it will already be behind the times when it is released, whether that be June or September (looks more and more like Sep now). Just google evo 3d and samsun galaxy s2, both of which are coming out before the summer time and you can see that the iphone 5 will not be revolutionary whatsoever in terms of hardware.
"Able to store my whole computer on the lowest model of the iPhone 5. Yippeee for me." what kind of computer has a 32gb hard dive,??????? all so 32gb is not that much at all, I have filled my 120gb I pod, wish they would come out with a 120,160gb Iphone
Does anyone have a date the Iphone 5 release is yet?? Do you think you could pre-order?
Apple suck, they are over priced, pretentious bull****.
Anyone who has one is just deluding themselves that they are top of the pile, when in fact they suck ****.
Death to apple!!!!!!
the fact that you said that android will not even come close to Iphone 5 is just pure ignorance on your part. phones like Atrix, Galaxy S 2, G2x are pure power that already left iphone way far behind. btw I hope that IPhone should get the most basic part of any phone correct i.e. be able to make a phone call without having to read up "right way to hold a phone" instruction guide. GO DROIDS!!!!
I have painted the words iphone5 on my £20 nokia - it looks really cool - anyone wanna buy ? £600 o.n.o
If the iPhone 4 is 1 bit better than the 4, then I'll be leaving my wife to marry my iPhone 5! As if I'm not playing with it enough already .... iPhones rule!! Anyone that says anything different, obviously have never owned one!!
Oops! Typo on last comment. The first iPhone should be 5 not 4. Btw, anyone who says androids can compete with the iPhone are dumb ass's! Trust me I know. I own and use both! The android isn't bad, but can't even come close to my iPhone 4!!
What was so geeky about this piece of info? Seriously, I don't even know why you folks use apple anymore.
Thanks for the info, Im wondering will it be able to support FLASH websites... ?
Reading this post makes my brain hurt. It's obvious that your knowledge of technology is on par with your inability to write a coherant, fact-based article. There are absolutely no facts in this, just meaningless "fan-girl" banter. You should stick to writing articles about shampoo or other products you actually know something about.
Well ive been debating on getting an iphone and i was gunna get the iphone 4 but now i can wait o and it comes out in june if anybody reads this
Dual core is not ground breaking as the Motorola Atrix, the HTC Thunderbolt and the forth comeing Motorola Droid Bionic have Dual Core Targa 2 NVIDIA prossessors. Not only that but since they have this prossessor made by NVIDIA they are 1080p HDMI phones. So once again Apple is trying to catch up to the rest of the pack. There is how ever only one way that Apple could even hope to keep up and that is release the iOS to phone manafactures and let them build a phone that supports that os, like Microsoft and Google has.
Ok, I understand that everyone is trying to say one is better than the other. I just returned my Android and returned to my Iphone 3GS. I loved the larger screen on the HTC Inspire, the only fault I could find is that the phone will not connect directly to my computer no matter how many different steps I take to make the phone do so. I don't know if its the phone or if it's the OS, but I can't wait for the IPhone 5. And yes, I may be paying way too much, but I feel for the uses I need from a phone, the Apple works best for me.
Whoever wrote this is extremely stupid. Android phones - especially Arc crush the iphones - and you don't even know if the iphone 5 will have those specs. Don't go making stupid judgements about the Androids, you osund like those brainwashed isheeps who can only think of iphones. Pffft...

Kenny - the Arc pwns the iphone in so many ways - you probably haven't got a good enough android phone, that's why you're saying that.
I am glad to know, even in this economy, the money is never of any concern when buying Apple hype. Rip off $$$. I can buy Ferrari with the money costing a phone.
Apple is just catching up with other cell phone in terms of features. A least quality camera, poor video, Junk bluetooth, Restrictions like iTunes, dictatorship of Apple when we is bombing whole word for democracy!! Enough reasons NOT to buy it!! C'mon everyone, don't be blind followers...weigh everything and don't think you are better always. Respect others too (in terms of phone at least). No wonder Android got 25% marketshare from apple. Is this writers paid by apple or just brainwashed sheep.
Hey ciaokatherine (the writer of article), One quick question:
1. Will Apple fix Antenna issue in iPhone5.0?
2. Will Apple introduce real battery + Signal meter and not fake calculated bars to show iphone gets better signal!!
OMG!!! I am so excited! I am that girl who goes into Apple asking questions too! Can't wait (literally)! When will it come out exactly?
Wow this is such bullshit I have a thing to say to whoever wrote this
1.Why the fuck are you so excited for the damn phone?! There is a lot more in life than a damn iPhone 5.
2.You think that "no other Android phone can compete with the iPhone 5." Yeah, all the stuff you said it will have, androids already have that shit!!!!! iPhone 5 might not be that great! Android is already winning.
3.I can tell that you are the type of person who has no money to even buy an iPhone cause if you did, you would be using it for a reason like taking a plane to a vacation or something, like GET A LIFE.. I'm only here because I wanted to see if the iPhone 5 came out already yet you don't even have a picture of it, it's all or nothing, you either know for a fact or don't waste your time doing this. You'll see that when iPhone 5 still won't be close to the EVO or ThunderBolt 4G, you're gonna go back into your poor ass room in your poor ass house as if you do not do that already!!!!!!!!!
iPhone is iPhone, fame in the name. I am not a geek, and I do not care what super specs iPhone comes with. What works for me? I judge it as I use it, what I see and feel while using it. I must say, first iPhone was WOW, second one "3G": could not find any improvement, third one "3GS" was better than first two, fourth one "iphone4" apple had no special name bcaz only difference is the shape. Ohhh, shape is flat now. For God's sake, it still freezes, no reception, no flash support untill now, competitors makes an efforts to take out many models and specs every year, what good apple is?
Customer service is great, because your product is a trash, you need to provide that customer service since clients pays fortune for this piece of junk. But I do not have time to take the phone to your store every week?
I cannot say this infront of all people that I know, but I can take out my stress here since nobody knows who I am.
Apple, you are a piece of junk. Only reason, I keep using ur iPhone, bcaz I like saying I own a iPhone "too". I'm not a show-off, but do I really want to upset 15 out of 20 people (who carry iPhone) that I hang out/ work with. These people happen to be pure fan of Apple, ignore all the neg aspects of this phone.
Apple sucks. Sadly I gotta use the fifth one becaz my company requires me to have one.
i'm getting my iphone 4 soon, and i knew about the iphone 5, but i didnt want to wait till the summer to wait for it,... ughhh ):<
Why does he say that the iphone will have anything other phones don't have. It's an apple myth that all that is in a mac, iphone, or ipad(Love itouch-no complaints). for instance the Optimus g2x will also have a dual core processor.
the guy that wrote this is such a nerd ... as if he would even have a girlfriend to alk to for 14 hours ... pathetic
I have to get this phone.
Knowing the pricing history of iPhones, the iPhone 4 will most likely drop to 99.99 like the GS and the iPhone 5 will cost 199.99 for the lowest gig model like before. But this is just my opinion :)
Yet another brainwashed Apple fanboy...
i want to put apple in my poo
i want to put apple in my poo
It's not a 4G network. Any tech guy would be able to correctly state that the "4G" of today is not to true 4G specs....ergo.....not 4G. The standard is 1GB/sec of data to a static handset. Current cellular infrastructure is WAAAAAAAAY behind that with a capital F. It will be years....yes YEARS....before 4G truly exists. This is a 4th generation phone, not a network.
That's about the dumbest review I've ever read. What a waste of 30 seconds.
Who wrote this article? A five year old? Seriously, this is by far the worst article I've ever read. What is the author of this article basing the allegations about iphone 5 being way better than android phones? Specially if the phone's going to cost over $500, then i'm quite sure all you'll see will be droid phones, on the street. And most of the smart phones that i'm aware of, at the moment, do come with in built GPS so the whole argument bout never getting lost is just retarded!
I like the iPhone 4's rectangular form factor because it adds two functions - I can stand it up on one of the edges to watch video. Also the flat back allows one to do something creative with the back e.g. Use a glossy screen protector that doubles as a mirror or simply another screen scratch guard. Hope they keep the form factor - curved surfaces are just not as functional...Anyone have other ideas of some functional add-on for the back for an iPhone? Seems like there is a lot of unused real estate... (of course this is true for almost any electronic device...)
I'm sorry. You phone nerds are carrying this too far. Brutal truth: the iPhone has lost its uniqueness. HTC and other Android phones have far surpassed the iPhone. I have a Nano and an iTouch, so I know about Apple. The Evo and the Thunderbolt and the Inspire are all way better phones than the iPhone 5. I challenge you Apple fanboys to find one good thing that iPhones have over the Evo. By the way, Get A Life, take your own advice. Stop doting over every product Apple releases and start actually looking at what you're criticizing before you do.
OMG Really?! You mean i can get a phone for $500 that comes out in 2-5 months thats features have already been updated on other better and cheaper phones?! AMAZING! not
I love iphone 5!!!!
I CAN'T WAIT, MY BOYFRIEND AND ME ARE GOING TO BE VERY HAPPY. WE CAN SPEND MORE TIME.
didnt it already have gps in iphone 4?
If you really don't like about iphone, Why you guys come here in the first place,,gives suck comments.
1 WORD,,THE MOST YOU HATE IT THE MOST YOU LOVE IT...
thanks heaps for this information :) p.s. i love the personal touches to the article haha
thanks heaps for this information :) p.s. i love the personal touches to the article haha
Yawn... This article was comical. Preaching how the iPhone beats the Droids but the iPhone specs listed were exceeded by Droids two months ago (and some specs bested by Droids two years ago). Fact is, Droid is leading in market share now because they are more open and innovate faster to the market than Apple.
I have the iPhone 3Gs since it came out on May 19, 2008. Ever since, the iPhone 4 came out & of course I was interested, but what turned me off about it was how can the iPhone 4 not be 4G network? I really didn't like that at all, so I never went forth about getting an iPhone 4. Ever since I heard that AT&T had 4G network, that's when I knew it was only a matter of time before they made a new iPhone that would not only have 4G capabilities, but also better & newer features, including it being allot faster, prettier, sleeker, more advance, crisper imaging, better face time & so so so much more. What ever happened with AT&T's contract that they were the only phone company that would have iPhone? When ppl talk to me about Droid & Evo's, I think of wanna beas, & cheap imitation fake copy's of the iPhone. So for any1 that reads this-- iPhone is ONE of a kind! B4 iPhone, no1 ever thought of having cell phone capabilities like the ones we have now in today's age. iPhone carved a revolutionary new wave of the image of today's new "smart" phones, & anything & everything else (Droid, Evo, & any other smart phones) are just copies & imitations of an iPhone, as these cell phone companies try & strive to be more & more like iPhone. To be honest, I really hate the fact that iPhones will be distributed by other phone companies other than AT&T. I think that ppl with their , Evo's & all those other crappy smart phones should stay with their cell phone companies until they realize the truth, that iPhone & AT&T are thee revolutionary, cutting ground, breaking news best phones (top of the line) & greatest communication product ever invented. I personally cannot wait until iPhone 5 comes out myself, for I will be one of the very 1st ppl going thru the apple store doors trying to purchase my iPhone 5. I think the iPhone 5 is just a superior far surpassing iPhone than the iPhone 4. I mean sure the iPhone 4 is great, but I can only imagine the new iPhone 5 coming out & how it will be.
If you can store your whole hard drive on your 32G iPhone you probably aren't as techy as you think. Besides your lack of explanation on EVERYTHING, you somehow got to point across. AT&T will have to iPhone 5 and a 4G network at launch. Your $500 dollar estimate is utterly retarded and at upgrade should be around $299. Other phones WILL be able to compete with the iPhone 5 easily with the market of smartphones increasing every month. You seem to be slightly miseducated or maybe a 13 years old. The iPhone 5 will have a larger screen which you failed to mention, and GPS is already on the 3GS and 4 so it was virtually useless to let us know it will be on the 5. Now go, get back on the phone with your "girlfriend for 10 hours". Normal people take their girlfriends on dates and don't blog about upcoming phones.
Seriously??......how can you get so worked up about a phone?
I've got both the Apple OS4 and the recent Android 2.3 Gingerbread on the HTC Desire S. I'm not surprised that the author of this article is really excited as the iPhone really is for girls and/or people who are just happy with using what they have been given and told this is the only way to do it. Android is far far superior in my opinion, so much more I can do with it. Fair enogh the new iPhone specs sound amazing but here are some points to consider
Do you really need that much more resolution for pictures on such a small screen?
HD sound?.....come on, your phone is hardly a theater system!
Faster processor.....for what?....the latest generation of phones are very fast anyway, now you are just being picky. Oh sorry, you want to use facebook and listen to music and all together blah blah....seriously, leave your phone at home, go out, meet some friends and get a life.
Face recognition on new iPhone 5 to prevent theft?...yeah right. If some wanted to steal your phone they will steal it anyway....they are not going to look at it and think, oh...facial recognition, can't use this phone and must return it.
Get my drift?. Look at some of the reasons the author put down as a reason for getting the new iPhone 5...hardly much technical.....shiny phone.....more battery....4g faster faster than 3g....yippeeeee.
Grow up people. stop getting excited over silly things.
I hate to compare 2 different phones, but HTC has it for me right now. Thunderbolt is awesome! love it! Owned an iphone in the past (2 of them, 1st had lockup issues, 2nd had audio issues) and never will go back.
when does the iphone 5 come out
Hi, Iphone Fans have to understand, difference between Iphone and Android. Iphone is locked in and nothing user can do unless you jailbreak it, Beside iphone looks good thats about it, its not multi-tasking, all the screen is filled with icons, now folders... come on, Android dose better job then Iphone. I'm not saying iphone is bad, if you think about it, put iphone and android phones togather then use it, android will gives you many OS options, home screens, Themes, Wallpapers, keep you screen clean or fill up with icons have Widgets, text to speak, and much more it Google. Iphone has all the icons or folders filled with screen, you have to have itunes to add music or video. no themes, no home screens, no widgets, no live wallpapgers, no flash, no multi os, can't add any music have to use your pc or apple to transfer music, video etc. TO ME IPHONE IS A NICE LOOKING PHONE.
andreddit sux i want iphone 5 NAOOOOOOO!
Do us a favor, take your head out of your narrow butt-hole. Android is on a killing spree. Apple aint worth shit, just made of overrated bunch of crap material. 4G? All the latest Android phones have it. Nicer overall design? You obviously haven't seen the Sony Ericsson XPERIA Arc. 32/64GB space? Samsung Galaxy S II 9100 has it covered. HD Audio? Old news, everybody got it. Ever heard of HD output thru HDMI cables? Android has it. Shatter/Shatter resistant? Motorola DEFY.
What does Android NOT have?
-It's got a great notification bar up on top. Getting proper notifications on an iPhone takes crazy long.
-Great screens. iPhone's Retina screen isn't as good as Samsung's Super AMOLED Plus touchscreens or even Nokia's AMOLED on the X7.
Amd finally an awesome browser on most Android phones. What more could you ask for?
PS. The only thing Android needs... an Apple badge =|
Verizon has said that their 4G plans will not be not be more than $29.99 so maybe the 3G rates will get reduced.
Two words, flash player.
Android have long overtaken the over rated and under performing iPhone 4 flop.
Don't waste you money on an iPhone 5 when you can get an android phone which has more features and you wont get ripped off by the price
Im going to go squrilll huntning
You have absolutely no knowledge of technology. You have no idea how much the iphone lags in technology. I own and iPhone 4, I've had an iPhone since the first generation came out. First gen. was great for the time period. Now it's lagging.. who wants to buy a phone that's behind the technological curve?? I DON'T!!!!
And just so you know the iphone does not have a great camera, and the service sucks period. and has a lot of other bugs and malfunctions. So before you write about a phone, maybe you should consider the above. Because, the iPhone currently sucks.
4G network is so limited, that most 4G phones are running on a 3G network. Don't expect AT&T to change any of that on a count that we're still running on 3G.
Will we be able to talk and surf at the same time on the iPhone 5 with Verizon? I love Verizon and Apple and am still waiting for them to figure this out...!!!
Having an Iphone is like having a computer in your pocket. I cannot live without it.
So... facial recognition you say? Considering they pretty much just released that technology on the Xbox. Even then, it is still limited to a unit bigger than a phone and must pull power from an outlet (well, the unit itself, which is powered from an outlet). I just have a hard time believing that they have compacted it down within a few months to work with a piece of technology about the size of a deck of cards. I know technology moves fast in this day and age, but not that fast. I'll believe it when I see it.
Oh, and as far as GPS goes, iPhone is far behind. While Android has turn by turn spoken navigation systems like a TomTom or Garmin since it's introduction, iPhone's GPS might as well be Mapquest through your phone's internet explorer (safari). Even Blackberry has "true" GPS.
It cracks me up at all the stupid questions that people can ask! Like how much will it cost with a two year contract or how much will the data plan be....Really people?
This discussion is very interesting it too me a long time to finish'm all, longer than the original hub ;)
All this iPhone vs android crap is pathetic. Everyone has opinions. Both have GOOD and BAD points. I have had android phones and really liked them, I have iPhone 4 now. I really like it. It has things I miss from android and has things I wish android had. Both are good though. I only got an iPhone because I switched from Sprint to AT&T. I couldn't use my phone phone or text most of the time at home because there was NO service with sprint in my town. I even thought about getting another HTC from AT&T when I switched.
I hope you can download flashplayer.

The Atrix already has a dual core processor and it will be the norm for all smart phones. None of these specs are things the iPhone will hold as an advantage over other phones debuting this year. I know you don't care, you just want the iPhone.
do anyone know of they plan on having surf and talk for Verizon?
Oh dear. You really need to get a grip on yourself. You claim to be an ubergeek when it comes to apple but there is hardly any usefull information about the iphone in this piece. And as for your view on android you should really do some research. Dual core Android phones with HD audio and exceptional screen quality are already on the market. In fact, in specs they kick the iphones arse. Apple has great software which is really where they shine, but with the explosion of HTC it won't be long before apple are left way, way behind. I agree with the guy who said that you are the reason people hate apple.
iPhone 5 is not going to be 4G capable
Revolutionary lol
Propriety HDMI port - check
2nd to duel processor - check
No expandable memory - check
No flash - check
2nd to Biometric security - check
iPhone was revolutionary
iPhone 3 was revolutionary
iPhone 3g was an upgrade
iPhone 4 was "lets put something out to make more money"
iPhone 5 will just be a follower of Droid
Samsung are just releasing the Galaxy S2. Brilliant specs. How well will the iPhone5 bare against the galaxy s2?
Iphone is old, android phones are coming out that will blow them away. droid bionic anyone?
I plan to buy an Apple Iphone 4 , but I heard a lot people telling me that new Apple Iphone ( Apple Iphone 5 ) Will be launched this year . But Apple Iphone 4 white colour going to launched next weeks or next month and I thinking that possible that new Apple Iphone 5 will launched this year
I currently own a droid. X, and Im going to upgrade to a droid bionic. Im still gonna get a iphone 5 on my other line. I don't want to compromise, I want the top phones on the top US network.
3 words: iPod touch 5
I'm pretty sure by the time iPhone5 comes out with all the "new fantastic" features, the other phones will have the same, if not better, features as well.
Android is better than you think! htc thunderbolt
I am wondering if they increase the contract to 3 or 4 years!
HTC sux...their battery life is atrocious...i am tired of being the victim of 'field based' R&D!!! go iphone!!! go truth!!!
your an idiot telling people to "wait for the iphone 5" then once the iphone 5 comes out a couple months later your going to say "wait for the iphone 6" lame..
I like peeing more than pooping so I don't know what to do
Once again, a female decided to review an iphone and didn't do all the homework, plus many grammatical and spelling errors. Many of these features are on the way, or already here for android phones.
And before you scream sexist male pig, I'm a female, too, only more informed.
I may very well try out a new I phone 5 but I would never leave the android phones behind. The arrogance of Apple really drives me away from most of their products. I have owned approx 7 models of the Android based phones and they have all been spectacular in performance. From my original Droid that in stock form would absolutely smoke the Iphone in performance to my current Droid X with gingerbread, my dual core Atrix 4g, my Evo 4g, my Epic 4G to my much anticipated additions this summer of the Optimus G2X, Droid X2, Droid Bionic, Droid 3, Samsung Galaxy S2 and the HTC Scorpion and not to mention the quad core goodness that is supposed to be released this Holiday season. Get ready Apple because the Little Green Android is about ready to take a huge robot dump on you. LOL.
I've wanted to get an iPhone but I'll defiantly buy the iPhone 5 I bet it will be about $200 if your thinking of getting a iPhone wait for the iphone5
I'll definitely be buying the iPhone 5 when it comes out, the iPhone 4 I have now is amazing and it's so much faster than the iPhone 3.
I'm sure that this new one will be amazing, I'm hoping it can finally support FLAC audio files.
Google HTC Sensation and you'll the answer
how do u even know? even the apple website doesn't say anything about the upcoming iphone5
Finally Please start supporting FLAC - the music clarity is in a completely new league...
The iPhone 5 will not be able to compete with the Samsung Galaxy S2. You talk about the dual-core processor, while the iPhone 5 is most likely going to use a 1Ghz processor while the S2 is using a 1.2 Ghz processor. Also the S2 will use a NIVIDA dedicated graphics GPU and will be able to produce visuals created by the Unreal engine. The iPhone will never have a chance as an actual smartphone untill Apple gives it a removable battery, sd card port, and the ui isn't just a grid of apps. The only people I predict buying iPhone 5s is fanboys and girls.
dont release yet the iphone 5
This is probably the worst article I have ever read. I come in here to find some info on the Iphone 5, and I get this giant flaming pile of shit for an article. Your bias towards Apple in incredibly clear. The fact that you say the Iphone 4 was better than the EVO proves that you have no idea what you are talking about.
Also, using phrases like " 20 gigawatt gazillion megapixel " shows that you have no idea what you are talking about.
"Also, anyone who says Android based cell phones are going to be able to compete with the new iPhone 5 are completely delirious. They won't even come close to the capabilities offered by the new iPhone when it comes out." Could you please give me some evidence as to how you came to this conclusion? (Barring, of couse, your biased opinion on the Iphone's superiority). A lot of the stuff you listed can be found on the soon-to-be-released Samsung Galaxy S2 .
The Iphone doesn't even support Flash, which most websites use. So please, before you have people suffer through a car wreck of an article, do some research before you make yourself look like a bigger idiot than you already do.
Anyone reading this article, do so CAREFULLY. This is a terrible review. I am not saying this because of an allegiance to any sort of OS (I own several Macs and iPods and love them). Not only does the author offer NO actual facts about iPhone 5's schematic characteristics, the author also made it very apparent she did NOT do any actual research about any Android based phones. You can't expect me to read this, and just "take your word for it" based on a conversation you had with an Apple concierge (someone who doesn't actually know much about ANY mac product but knows enough about a product to convince people like you to buy it). Extremely mac-biased and un-educated review.
Awesome information.
Im waiting and longing for the iphone 5. Ive skipped all the previous gens as well as ipod touches just for the iP5. And with the higher of the 2 having 64gb of space, i can finally get rid of my old 80gb classic! And hopefully with the iP4 on verizoon, ill be upgrading my droid 2 to an iP5 (Hopefully). And to other reviewers/readers, may i inform you that there have been NO informative releases to the iPhone 5. Just peoples opinions, probably percentages, and more than likely's. But i must say 9 times out of 10, the consumer is always right!
I'll just wait until the new iphone 6 comes out which is in 2012 February because iphone 5 is not going to be much change compered to a phone4 and iphone 6 will
I have an iPhone 3gs and i love it! I was told not to upgrade to a 4 because the 5 is such an advance in comparison! I hope that the rumors are true.... and will Verizon be getting the 5 at the same time as AT&T since they just got the 4?
Do you really think that it will be $500 dollars with a 2 yr contract?
Do you really think that it will be $500 dollars with a 2 yr contract?
for one jailbreaking is now legal, the government issued that selling a product and limitiing its potential uses is illegal. So jailbreaking is no longer a factor in the discussion of carriers. Also AT&T will get the iphone 5 no doubt about it. With the ipad having 3g through AT&T it is very likely apple signed an extension with AT&T when the first ipad was released. Im pretty sure iphone will be with AT&T forever, just as when the RAZR came out it stayed with AT&T forever and then slowly made the RAZR for other carriers. AT&T is looking to buy out T-mobile so why wouldent apple be interested in staying with them. So many customers will be flowing into AT&T. Do you really think apple cares about signal strength or sales? come on people
and to you Verizon customers, sad to say but since you just got the iphone 4 you will get the iphone 5 later. just as the ipad was for AT&T and then adopted by Verizon later. it doesnt seem fair to the consumer but im sure AT&T has a strict contract where they get the phone first due to sales. Yeah verizon has better signal but who cares in this age i dont even use my phone to call people
Yeah, this review doesn't sound very factual.
Hi everyone the new iphone 5 will be comming out in may 1st in all country's except the usa that will be 11 of June and yes it will be 4 g lte and it will not be locked if you brought it at the Apple Store and all provers in the usa will be selling them and you don't have to be on AT&T network to buy one Thank You
I have already got the iphone 4 and i have been very happy and here in Australia two 4g lte cell phone networks are getting built and they will be up and running on the 1.8 ghz and the 700 mhz will get switched on when analogue tv get switched off in 2013. I think it could be between this year or about 2013 to see the iphone 4g to relesed and the 4g lte networks around the world would have to check the software faults on the 4g lte networks and Apple will have to find out about what frequency's the 4g lte networks around the world are using then they would more likely work around that
It is not fair for some of us who just got the iPhone 4.we have not even enjoy the model and apple is already talking about iPhone 5.Otherwise the iPhone 5 must look like iphon4 ,so that we that love the latest can still be enjoying the look of iphone4 without having to worry about the iphone5.Otherwise apple product are the best.
Umm 2 many comments
And when you described shiny black piece it makes it sound like the same as the iPhone
I have never read such a cluster of a$$holes comment on a subject they are clueless on. beyond aesthetics the iphone 5 offers little more than the iphone 4. beyond that once the android store comes to cydia then boom, there goes the android headsets, which are pure crap anyways. The girl who wrote about the dozen or so phones she's owned and tried out that put the iphone to shame.....get a dog, stop buying cell phones you yutz. Finally, most people put their iphones in cases, so the black back cover will never be seen anyways. I was excited to see the differences between the 4 and r=the 5, but I am very underwhelmed by what I found.....wait for the 6. (and btw, anyone expecting a $500 price point should see a doctor about removing their head from their a$$, it's expensive but well worth it.
Wait for the 6. Nothing really new that's grounbreaking. Just cleaner and faster. Nothing extraordinary.
Android won't be able to compete? How not? Android phones have already had dual core processors and their screens don't crack. And the biggest thing that apple products lack is still no flash. And to answer anybody's questions no apple will never have flash Steve jobs says it's a relic so good luck getting a flash player unless you jailbreak it.or you can get android and it's already jailbroken for you. And btw you can get frostwire on android phones so you never have to pay for a song. Which is what $1.69 a song now? Good try apple fan boys buy your piece of crap iPhone 5 that really is copying the droid but they'll "revoloutionalize" that wont they
doidfiovm
I will get the new and latest model iPhone every year for the rest of my life! I love all the features and I'm a total geek when it comes to Apple. The only thing I would love is a "smudge-proof" screen. If they can manage that....WOW
I have been addicted to Apple since the 80's when it was available to the public. I have owned a Mac computer ever since. I have had my iPhone for 2 years and I could ask for a better phone. I cannot wait until the I5 comes out, because I'm waiting to upgrade my I3GS to the I5. I was going to upgrade to the I4, until I found out the I5 was coming out soon. Why waste my money on the I4, when I could have the newest and greatest phone Apple has. Apple/Mac I heart you!!!! Life time supporter of Apple/Mac....
you stupid thick c*nt of a slutbitch, you haven't a clue cuntchops.
u shithead
I want ONLY Longer Battery Life! with this feature will become my perfect iPhone!
I've never had an iPhone, brats.
@Michael, your comment "All this iPhone vs android crap is pathetic." is pathetic. What is pathetic about iPhone vs android, even you contributed to it so eat your own sh1t.
I can't wait for the iPhone18567GSX - It's gonna be LEGENDAAAAAAAARY!!!!!!!
For me the huge difference between iPhone users and android users is I can kick all the android users asses! Haha I still wish I had a Zack Morris cell phone! F**k Android virgin geeks!!!! Lol!
The iPhone is more natural then anyother phone, I bought the evo and took it back and got a old flip phone, that unbearible to navigate. Having all financing on phone would be great but how will I buy my weed?
Sup, im an aussie male and LOVE apple, got an ipad and ipod touch, love them both. Lookimg at a macbook pro. And selling my ipo touch and buy an iphone ( waiting for when ever the iphone5 comes out but the ppl who like other phones and pay out apple, there is a reason apple is more popular, the blogs like this are not sayin the iphone IS going to be like thAt she is saying thats what she thinks and wants... So lay off her, it just what she thinks
He has a good point. Why did u put ur name in japanese??
No point saying u hate the iphone, it tooo dam good. Props to the aussie wif the japanese name
What a BS article. Nothing substantial, facts are missing to proof statements such as that Android is not going to compete.
That's Chinese, not japonese!
I'm a single Android men. Often sober too. Looking I-phone woman. If they are so good like they say. 5 will be excellent, but 4 will work for me too.
P.S. I-phone is not the first have a dual processor!
Can't wait for the Iphone5. I'll buy it once it get released.
I can't wait until I get an iphone 5 hopefully!! I have always wanted an iphone, and this would be a great chance to get one
What. How can androids not compete. Rather in specs they are usually better.
I don't even see any actual benefit of an iphone 5 beside the 4G, it is more or less the same phone. Hopefully faster and not as fat. I have yet to see a person actually just face to face calling in real life yet.
I own an iPhone 3GS, and am now using an HTC Desire HD, which whilst needing to be charged daily, blows the iPhone to bits.
Apple are a blinkered company and as for the "Apple way or the High way" attitude, it ruins a perfectly awesome phone with capability for so much more.
Sorry, but this review sounds innacurate and CIAOKATHERINE really sounds full of shit. The statements are just clutching at straws. HD Audio?? Wooo, iPhone 4 has a 5mp camera.....Nokia N8 is shit, but the camera is 12mp!! My HTC is 8mp!! Big deal!!
As for the price? It'll be ridiculous, because Mr Jobs knows that all the "iPhone Luvah's" out there will jump on the collective bandwagon.
I cut away from Apple and good riddance I say.
Enjoy your iPhone 5's guys.
I'm sure that like me millions will have to wait til July 2012 to get the i-phone5
I have had the latest iphone for the last three years (upgrades)...recently traded it in (and AT&T) for the new HTC Thunderbolt at Verizon. Went through about two weeks of Apple withdrawl and now I laugh that I ever worried about leaving. I'm in a 4G area (real 4G) and it's embarrassing how fast this phone is...not just on data, but with simple processing. I'm sure that many of you will have the same fears that I had about leaving, but, wow; once you're off your Apple addiction, it's amazing how nice it is to have a phone that works an order of magnitude better than an iphone. Unless the iphone 5 comes with a time travel app, I don't expect to go back...BTW, how did I ever live with that tiny screen?
BTW CiaoKatherine, I respect the fact that you're a single mom who likes yoga and biking (and writing), but I would like to suggest that you do what you can to avoid works of fiction like your article above. Whilst Apple's policy of silence makes it easy for everyone to treat these issues like a silly Facebook post, there are responsible journalists out there who take the veracity of these writings very seriously. If you're going to have followers and post things like this for the whole world to see (and pop up at the top of a google search), you might consider a disclaimer. It's what separates honorable people from the looneys...
lol, this article is extremely biased and inaccurate. for example:
"Also, anyone who says Android based cell phones are going to be able to compete with the new iPhone 5 are completely delirious. They won't even come close to the capabilities offered by the new iPhone when it comes out."
that's cute.
I'll def get it I've got the 3GS and I've had it since November of 2009. By far the best phone I've ever owned and it has saved me quite a few times with the maps app. Especially when I'm in a new city lol. I've got an upgrade but will wait on the iPhone 5 BUT wish apple would name it the iPhone 4G. I think that makes soo much more sense. Anywho, can't wait for it and great blog :) very informative.
Are you kidding?? Many of the features you want in the new iphone are already offered on most Droids. I think people get excited about something shiney rather than weigh all the great options in current cell phones.
uhm... isn't android a operating system and not a actual phone, droid fanboys?? Whats a droid fanboi doin on a iPhone 5 review page? Aaaah it must be a droid troll. hmm thats very cool. not!
iPhone 5 will be nice! If you dont want it dont buy it!
I despritly want it so bad that if i don`t get it i will cry my EYES OUT!!!!!!!!!
Siricely i do want it.
Thank you for letting me talk to you.
Bye :)
Ive had the iPhone 3G & now currently have the iPhone 4.. I Love It! Only problem i had was an audio drop but i returned it & got a brand new one no questions asked.. & i have connections with an at&t personel and got free wireless bluetooth headset, car charger, & otter hard plastic case.. I think ill wait on the iPhone 5 to see any reviews and wait til they fix any and all glitches & bugs in the iphone itself whether hardware or software.. But def looking forward to an even faster phone!
wat is the point of buying this?? Evo beats the rest!!!
I absolutely hate it when ignorant people such as the author of this article make oppinionistic posts and speak as if she had a clue of how the device works or offers. She writes at the end post because I need attention so I will take this with a grain of salt and as an apple shill just successfuly troll the web.
PS: I hate you and your kind
Do you think you will be able to make phone calls on this iphone 5, i know you couldnt with an iPhone 4?
Do you think you will be able to make phone calls on this iphone 5, i know you couldnt with an iPhone 4?
DANGER : read this DONT BUY AN IPHONE they are using them to spy on you
iPhones are ALL hype! Everytime there is an issue with these "smartphones" I was smart enought to sell mine on eBay *LOL* Many of the features you want in the new iphone are already offered on most Droids. Droids beat the iPhone hands down! "Appleheads" will purchase any smartphone Apple comes out with. Now their notebooks are excellent!
I love my iphone 3gs and will be waiting for 5. But you have to accept the fact that their are phones out there that are competitive and already have the most or all features that iPhone 5 is going to have. It just happens to be that I have invested $ in iphone apps and like the look of iphone so I'm sticking with it...for now.
Ok, Apple computers suck, thats why 98% of the population use pc's.Secondly, HTC andDri=oid wukk bever be able to compete with the iphone purely bexauseofthenumberof apps. My mother uses her ipas to teach autistic kids to communicate. Find me onedroid app that can do that and I will eat my hat. Lastly everyone has preferences, and opinions. If you people who prefer other phones to the iphone use them, but remember theiphone revolutionized so your toy ht.'s and droids wouldn't exist without the iphone. so all you haters can suck a nut.
HHMMMMM
I just got a galaxy s 4g and peole ask me if its an iphone. I wouldnt waste my money on this. There are phones that can work just as well or better than the iphone. I also think the shatterproof screen is cap. My uncle is a builderand he dropped it two feet from the ground and it shattered completely. I wrote this on my flash supporting galaxy s 4g phone!
what do you think about future mobile cell phone that be marketed by window 7 soon?
Great webpage! I dont imagine Ive seen every one of the angles of this theme the way in which youve pointed them out. Youre a accurate star, a rock star guy.Nice information, many thanks to the author. It is incomprehensible to me now, but in general, the usefulness and significance is overwhelming. Thanks again and good luck!!!Iphone 5 release date and review
There are soo many ignorant, annoying, sexist etc. people on here. If you want an android phone then get it. If you want an iPhone then get it. It's a matter of choice between consumers. This reviewer is just showing her perspective and opinions ... She's not harming you ,why should you get up all on her if she hasn't done anything to any of you? I have an iPhone 4 and I am happy with it. FYI to people: the iPhone 5 is not going to have 4G(even confirmed by an
Apple official), Droids are motorola phones not all android phones are Droids, 3D is bad for your eyes even though it's a nice feature to have on phones, the iPhone can videochat with 3G just not FaceTime with 3G etc.... Just do more research because you'll look like an idiot if you don't know the right info. Also, people need to realize that other people have opinions and they are completely entitled to it. Just stop trolling because it does do nothing but make you look like a douche. goodbye:p just sayin
Amazing Blog! One of my parents has the new Iphone 4 at home too!
It's really an incredible device you have to see it for yourself to know.
Who gives a rats ass. It's all about personal preference. I really like my iPhone an will not be changing it until the next one appears. Until apple release the specs for it, nobody knows if it's gonna be groundbreaking or catching up. Personally, if they give it a 4" screen without making the phone bigger I'll be a happy chappie. I'd still choose it over any android anyway as it's my preference.
Peace out :-)
definetely getting the iphone 5, 'coz a fcken bastard stole my baby iphone4 :((( im all sad now,.. grr i hate that dude! he wont even be able to use it, so he better give it back to me :((
i wanna get an iphone 4 again so badly.. but i read soooo many good things about the iphone 5... grrr..
If i could only see a rumor picture of the iphone 5.......
well i am so excited about iPhone5. let see when they will launch it and i will use that one. i am waiting and i am sure that now countdown is begin. Wat you say guys
well i am so excited about iPhone5. let see when they will launch it and i will use that one. i am waiting and i am sure that now countdown is begin. Wat you say guys
dual core processor..almost every phone coming out this year has it, "it will be incorporating even more powerful graphics chip cards" .. really? which one? you dont even know. Many android phones can and will compete agaisnt the iphone 5, capabilities? please since android no iphone product have been able to compete, just look all the new tablets coming this year.. make the ipad 2 looks like a child's toy. I give you that you are trying to pass info on what's going be new, but trying to make it look like something that's going to revolutionize the world of cell phones.. please don't be silly.
I will be buying the iPhone 5 for me and the missus if, and only if, they run on Verizon's 4G network. If they run on 3G only, I will be purchasing a couple of big shiny droids instead. There is no way I'm going to wait two more years to get a 4G network phone. My hope is that I will be buying a couple of I phone 5's ASAP. We will see...
What? It has been official now sine the last Apple announcement that the I5G will be running on an Android based OS. (http://tinyurl.com/2qde4) Hence why the last keynote focused on a software rather than hardware promotion!
Seriously this guy doesn't have a clue what he's on about, I love apple phones but this is completely unfounded and extravagant 'info'. He's living in a dream world, please don't use this to decide whether to buy a new phone or anything, he's an idiot, just making stuff up. Love as always, Equinox
So good news for outsiders, the new iphone5 will be a "world phone" stated from the CFO of Verizon as of Apr.21. And the statement about the android based phones are false. the EVO was actually ranked higher than the iphone4. Dual Core processor phones are already out(Thunderbolt/Charge) most smartphones comming out will be using the dualcore technology, by the time iphone5 comes out dualcore smartphones will be mainstream. anyways i'm presuming that the iphone5 wont be much different than other smartphones when the release comes out. yes i'll be getting the iphone5 due to the fact of aesthetic purpose only. i like the way it looks and i do enjoy the OS that it runs on.
Attention!
3G- 5 will be awesome. Have waited to upgrade for a good 2 or so years.
Why is everyone so angry? Breathe, people, breathe!!!!
No way, coz the Freakin iPhone 5, 6, etc. still won't run FLASH!
the iphone 4 cost alot of money, even on cotract! i can see the iphone 5 being so much for people to afford.
stupid people like smart phones
stupid people like smart phones
Want it! $500? Too expensive!!
I believe thats a wish list more than a factual thing first of all what sources can u name that gave that info,and second thing i dare say is that other brands are certainly pushing apple around ,android took a chunk of the market and together with htc and Samsung are making apple do the dance to stay on the game dont get me wrong im not an iphone hater, but we got to admit that when apple was on the top he barely changed a thing on their phones or can you tell the difference between an iphone 3g and the 3gs on bare sight,i hope the new iphone gets better but unless they increase the screen size,make facetime over 3g or 4g and design few models instead a phone a year i guess that ill take my chances with the so called lesser devices and btw i own an iphone 4 stored cuz im using a rooted atrix which btw is dual core and 4g
All of these statements are just rumors. Apple has not confirmed anything yet, so you have no idea if the screen is larger or scratch resistant. The price has not been confirmed yet either. You claim android phones have nothing on the iPhone 5.... well why? I see no support to your argument.
What a waste of a hub! Please, stop writing false hubs.
you r right
Where do you get your information or are you just guessing wildly as to what this phone will have?

i would love to get it its just i cant afford it :(
bad review.. too much promoting then actually telling readers the spec
so is there any truth behind the iphone 5? i want to get it but i m holding out to see if it is comming out in june or july. dose anyone know for sure yet?
its out in sept/october
the main thing is the battery life needs to be improved dramitically.
other than i look forward with anticipation to the launch. it will be awesome.
i'm a Chinese ,waiting for iphone 5.
Does anyone can tell me when exactly is the release date of the iphone5? i cant find a clear answer
From the iPhone, to the 3GS, to the fourth, of course I'm getting the fifth.
I mean, I already got almost all of Apple's gadgets.. Why not continue updating my collection?
This new iPhone sounds unique.
Hopefully the contacts and plans won't be a pain in the ass.
AT&T is already annoying me about the tethering issue lol.
@person that asked about price;
The prices haven't changed much so I guess since the lowest gig you can get this iPhone with is 32. It's probably 299$ w/ contract , ofc.
all the features that you said are in iphone 5
they already have thosse in HTC phones
so what apple is gonna have in a year HTC has already got those for the past years

Sorry, but the iPhone 4 wasn't even remotely groundbreaking compared to other stuff out there. The 3G/S was. Not the iPhone 4. ;)

iphone 5s first release date: 17th July 2011
Current date: 2nd september 2011
c'mon iphone is nothing compare to a xperia arc! please android beats everything!
Oh, they said that it's probably not going to come with 4G.
http://www.eweek.com/c/a/Mobile-and-Wireless/Apple
And Android phones can definitely compete. For example, the Samsung Galaxy S2. 8 MP camera, 1080p video recording at 30 fps, 4.3 in Super AMOLED touchscreen,
it seem nice but its expensive too
Even though I'm eligible for an early upgrade due to problems I'm having with my Droid 2 (non-global) I'm going to wait for the iPhone 5. Unfortunately as of right now what new features and capabilities the phone will provide are all rumors. It being 4G is to be speculated this time around it may come in the iPhone 6 or possibly even wait til the iPhone 7 according to an Apple Representative I spoke with yesterday. Which doesn't matter to me much since my area won't be 4G til around 2013. Apple is always working on improving their technology so either way it will be an awesome phone.
Author quote
"I hate to admit it but somehow I've managed to become one of those Apple fangirls that you see walk into the Apple store and spend 30 minutes asking the employees all sorts of uber geek questions"
I agree with some responses that the author of this article is obsessed with anything apple. She also admits it too. It's obvious you are bias to apple, but don't bash other phones. Don't get me wrong, I do think the iPhone is awesome, but it is not for everyone.
Fangirl Go Get a Life!!!!!!!
Alright. I have the iPhone 3GS. My push notifications for Facebook don't always do what they are supposed to. The 3G network blows. I've tried my buddies 4 and really like it. But the only thing I'm gonna ask Apple. MAKE BETTER HEADPHONES. THEY FUCKIN SUCK. 2 weeks and they were blown. I like my music loud. What can I say? Oh another thing I hate about th 3GS is when my phone needs an update. It don't fuckin tell me. I sit there for a few days wondering why my phone is fuckin slow. So plug into my computer. My iTunes tells me I need an update. But why not my phone. Fix that too apple. I love te iPhones. Can't wait for the 5 but im not paying for it. I'm gonna upgrade from my 3GS to the 5. And tell th my issues with it. Gotta love apples no questions asked guarantee eh? Haha I do.
you all need to get a life ;-)
I already got an iPhone 3Gs but dunno if ill buy the iPhone 5 .. it rly seems to be rly great and all though ^^
Serious! The Droid phones and Windows Phones already do everything you mention. Even Blackberry has most of these features. It’s even compatible with the new 64 GB of internal memory. Hello people, you are stuck on your egotistic ways and don't truly understand technology. Maybe you are better off being called gullible. Maybe people who are not tech savvy should stop writing posts. I as a lot of people enjoyed the first iPhone because it was innovative. It’s not anymore. Sorry!
I have a 3Gs and my best deal date comes up in August with AT&T and I am pretty sure I will get an iPhone 5 when it is available there. I have been with them for 16 years or so and am not going to switch carriers now. For all of the complaints I have heard, I have not had a problem with them. My phone just seems to work.
This is a fun Hub. I personally can't wait for the iPhone 5. It's going to be great!
Will the face plate on the phone be larger. That is the only thing I don't like about the iPhone. With all these new phones coming out they have these really large face plates and I would like to see apple do the same.
This obviously was written by a High school girl
What's wrong with liking apple products? You android lovers can love androids and us apple lovers will stick with our products as long as we like them. Nobody cares that you like androids more than iphones.
dude, this sounds great. I was dreaming while reading but c'mon HD audio loool. if you were an apple fan or user you'd know it's not true looool.
This article is largely male cows excrement. 32g of space 64g of memory. Are we truly to believe that ram can hold twice the storage?!?!? Since my mac book pro has 4gig of ram and my old pc 2 I hardly see how a phone needs 64! You should do some research before spreading this crap. I wish people wouldn't post stuff like this.
If you hate Apple and iPhone don't buy it! Stupid fa*s. Go with your ugly and cheap quality HTCs running just a bad linux distro. Or go with the laggy M$ OS. Or better go with the Symbian.. it's as dumb as you... iPhone crashes ? Never happened to me, honestly! Maybe web os is kinda good and if it was an Apple product it would have been even better. anyway I've already chosen my religion. and I'm pretty sure it's the right one!
Read through a couple of messages and to justin, i have to absolutely agree, and they bought the screen off of samsung which is currently exactly the same screen as they have on the galaxy s...
Ok first of all AT&T will have an iPhone 5 because the iPhone was originally designed for at&t
Seriously...site your sources.
better android os systems than iphone and htc evo 3d and nexus have dual core led amolit besy phones
iphone 5 comes out this september :D
If iPhone 5 is using the fail A5 chip than there are already better phones on the market
ang ganda talaga ng ipone5..da best talaga sarap gamitin...
asdas
just as the guy above stated... YOU ALL NEED TO GET A LIFE!!!
"the new iphone is fater my vurrent one is not as fast" - you are all a bunch of loosers and geeks! Did you all forget what a phone is used for? - to call! It is so sad to see people every morning on the subway, or busses with their heads looking down, ears plugged up with a white, clicking away on their iphones and blackberry. It is a rediculous picture to see, very sad! No body interucts, people are afraid of talking to one another. This whole society is turning to shit. Apple is melting your brains! Go to Cuba and see how people are with no internet and iphones, you will see the world from a different angle.
- bulgarianknight
Some ppl like to know when the new shit comes out because they are into technology and the want the newest thing out there. The iphone can also be used as an itouch so why dont you quit being an a**hole and quit dissin on ppl
You think that an Ipod Touch version is going to come out?
I'm planning to take the Iphone 4 thanks to you, I'll wait for the 5. thanks
There is nothing new that apple iphone 4 gave which was not on other phone ,but my friend its the complete package which makes this phone so successful,with just one model they have captured the market.Don't you think its a great achievement for a computer company to change the face of mobile industry,now every tom dick and harry are coming out with a phone just to challenge iphone.Shame on them where were they before iphone....why were they sleeping.
Sir infact iphone have shown them the way as how to make a phone.
Long live iphone ...long live Steve Jobs for showing the freaking path to nirvana......follow ...follow ....follow the leader.
Waiting for bloody iphoe 5.
Wow, most of you on here are pretty gullible for believing this article. The latest news is that there will no iphone 5 in September. Apple now plans on releasing the iPhone 4S. Boo hoo...
As per my earlier comment about the iPhone 4S being the next phone out. It is far from groundbreaking. What a bunch of sheep. Ba ba ba.....
"The iPhone 4S improves upon the features of the iPhone 4 with cosmetic upgrades on-screen and off, sharper photographs, the new A5 dual-core mobile processor, and HSPA+ support. While these features will indeed improve the mobile experience the analysts state that these are only minor changes, and the iPhone 4S is far from groundbreaking."
If you wait on the iPhone 5 to come out u will buy it and then here that the iPhone 6 is on it's way. I have the iPhone 4 and love it. But am switching to the htc for 1 reason the tech. Is way better than the iPhone
If you wait on the iPhone 5 to come out u will buy it and then here that the iPhone 6 is on it's way. I have the iPhone 4 and love it. But am switching to the htc for 1 reason the tech. Is way better than the iPhone
I just hope the new Iphon5 will have bluetooth:o
I read that it has no botton it will turn on by your face scaner and the home botton will be tacttill
don't buy the iphone5 , wait for the iphone 13, it will allow you to dial numbers with your mind. All kidding aside, rabid consumerism begins with the idea that what we own is outdated and irrelevant, so we must upgrade, upgrade, upgrade!!! Truly pitiful how people buy into this.
waaahahaha lol...all the features that You mentioned have been already on the market.
also do the face recognition feature is not secure cause if they can not take your face off they can steal you picture and unlock the phone with it, so it is a dumb feature.
oh and GPS wow really that is good.
and about thickness I am sure they will make it same as toilet paper thickness so you can wipe your ass in case there is no toilet paper around and that will be a very very useful invention :P
price is $500 lol ...I do not think so it will be over $1500 hahhahaha but I am sure all apple sheep ops i mean fans can even pay $5000 for the logo only.
enjoy the 5 :P
I would buy I phones, but after constantly reading bolloks like that it's enough to make you want to beat steve b**w jobs with a bat!
It's a phone people. Need we be a war over phones? Really?
ur an rtard you know that? if your gonna post something post something useful not based on your ideas and assumptions only...
make yourself useful place a date or give a spec sheet now that's useful
this article reads like you have never even been to an Apple store. There were three other models of iPhone before iPhone4. There is not a chance on earth AT&T or now Verizon will let Sprint or TMobile get iPhone 5
Okay... I'm not bashing on the quality of apple, because apple makes some damn good products. But its completely ignorant to say that none of the android phones will be able to compete with the iphone 5. From the specifications that you've listed, you have listed none that aren't currently available on the models already out on android. Facial recognition may not be available currently on phones but the technology has been around for quite some time. PC's from the early 2000's with a webcam were capable of doing so. Secondly, although the memory capacity has increased, android has had the same capacities since the inclusion of micro sd card readers... hmmmm... I wonder how long those have been out for.... Gorilla shatter proof and scratch proof glass came out this year and has been included in the past few tablets which have been released. Furthermore, you also did not include the radios which would be included. The at&t/t-mobile, sprint, and verizon all run on different 4G networks. At&t still has yet to turn theirs on. The camera on the phone although is much better than the other phones on the market, you are completely ignorant of the aspects of a camera which make it a quality camera. The iphone has a fantastic lens with the same quality sensor. It actually has less megapixels than the leading android phones. Megapixels do jack diddly for photo quality unless you're planning on printing a poster... most of us are probably gonna show friends and post the photo to facebook. In that case, a 4mp camera would do just as well as an 8 mp picture assuming a 4x6/5x7 print.
Gain some knowledge on the actual technology before you publish an ill-informed article about the minuscule advances in the next phone. As much as I like apple products, consumers like you who write these articles make me sick and make me realize how much money dumb consumers waste on products that aren't worth substituting for completely functional products they already have.
I would buy the iPhone 5 when it comes out. The only problem is that I'm lock in a contract. So I will have to wait. But as long as they don't change the sim card I can mostly swicth with one of my parents, if they want too. Not that i really care but I hope that we don't have to wait for the iPhone white to come out and why only two color. I mean there are a lot of website that allow you to convert the color of the iphone to something other then black or white.
Good for Apple with a bunch of fans like this ;)
Did the author really say that the android phones will not be able to compete with the iPhone?! Way to be a total fanboy and neglect all kinds of facts like the new htc evo 3d will have a better camera, better processors, and better service providers. Oh, and most people agree that the iPhone 5 STILL won't have 4g. So instead of drooling over the marketing, do yourself a favor and switch to an EVO. It's better in every possible way, except for apps. Apple has that locked down. I love my iPad, but I refuse to buy a phone that is years behind what htc is putting out just because it has the apple logo. Then again, sheep will be sheep....
I'm sorry to say this but... It looks to me like you are trying to get a discount for the next iphone by trashing the competition. Here's a newsflash for you: The uniqueness of the dual core processor is already out there... it's called Motorola Atrix and oops... It's ANDROID! Hats off to iphone and the groundbreaking things they've HAD... But stop trying to put it on a pedestal. It's time has passed. :)
think for a moment, wat bout otterboxes, and such
Is Facetime still going to be running on WiFi?
I cant wait for the iphone 5!!! My upgrade is in September!! OMG!! Im sooo excited!
I WANT A SAUSAGE BISCUIT
I can only hope you were joking, I was actually entertained. If this is a heartfelt review, I recommend a new line of work.
neb - I think your name should be "NOOB". There is no iPhone 5 coming out in September. Sorry, I'm wrong and pigs DO fly!!!!
Samsung Galaxy S2 will destroy the Iphone 5. Android is more open and free. Apple isn't the only one with good phones.
I just wanted to point out that this is all speculation. Steve Jobs and the rest of Apple hasn't released anything about the actual iPhone 5. Plus knowing Apple, none of this will be released until two weeks before or so. Apple salesmen also don't know about the iPhone 5. Even some of the highest people in Apple probably don't know much, if anything about this. Just making sure that people aren't that gullible in believing most of the things in this article.
There already is galaxy s II in view and it will be released much sooner.. better procesor,ram, graphics, big display, camera, but dont know about Mic , i hate my galaxy s one thats for sure, but galaxy s already got hd quality sound + there will be no apple crap, no itunes, just raw files as FLAC, MKV ...
I would like to have iphone only:
*ability to put raw files,customization option,good multitasking
*if it had external sd slot,
*had lesser internal memory,
because 8gigs is more than enough and here we have 32 ? x_X i dont have much pron, which btw maybe would be blocked by apple :D
Do you think the new iPhone will have voice command text messaging?
Do you think the new iPhone will have voice command text messaging?
The iPhone 5 is not going to cost $500. Yes, there are people the will pay $500. Not the average person. The iPhone 5 will be $199 or $299. The only reason I say it won't cost $500 is because the last time Apple sold a phone for over $500 is when they first released the iPhone. They didn't know how the market would respond. They will do the usual $200 - $300 price range.
You are delirious thinking that iphone 5 will be better than a phone like samsung galaxy s2 because android >> ios.
sure i am waiting for I-phone 5 or what ever it is! but i don't thing the above article is correct, definitely it is not dual core processor, could be faster though.. of-course they fix all the bugs of Iphone 4
A woman writing about tech, no wonder she thinks the iPhone 5 will have the best hardware ever.
So you say Android phones would be able to compete, huh well almost all phones coming out have a dual-core processor, HTC 3D, Galaxy S2 for some, almost all high end phones already have the below mentioned
Face recognition and 4G
•HD Audio
•Built In GPS
So from what i see apple is behind on the times, they should put a 3d display on it also and give it better graphics than the current crappy iphone 4 which is slow and choppy playing HD games.
32GB Space, 64GB memory?
You make no sense..
If you are meaning 64GB RAM.. I am extremely worried about your a bility to be allowed to post such things..
iPhones are EXTREMELY overrated and are only popular because they work. But more often the not they fail and cause more trouble.. Android will always win due to that and the fact they are technologically advanced in nearly every way..
Good day.
U r so deluded. iPhone 5 r u serious. Wif phones like the samsung galaxy s2 already out, iPhone has no chance. Plus apple can't make their own products without havin to use other parts from other companies. Go get ur facts straight
I have a iPhone 3GS right now and it is better than any samsung phone out there
I am reading this on my iphone 4 while I am taking a poo, good for me right?
mango VS iphone 5 :D
mango VS iphone 5 :D
why are you jumping to the conclusion that the new iphone, who knows what it'll be called, will have all this stuff? please, just tell us what you want it to have instead of making up that theyre saying all this, cos in reality, theyre not saying anything
Rummors from a staffer involved in the design of iphone 5 says that the iphone 5 will be able to produce a Holographic projection to display on a flat opaque surface for interactive touch screen use with video and photo editing as well as application use and games.
will the iphone 5 be able to get unlocked and be used under the tmobile network??
I HATE THE DUMB STINKY I PHONE DUAH (SO STUPID!)
:):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):)
it is very good
it is very good
Thank you for your article it helped me to whrite an other on my blog about iphone 5.
things i hate about my iphone3gs
1. have to sync to itunes when putting songs pics movies,
2. why not just let it be like all other phones? COPY and PASTE THE FILES you want! delete songs in your phone!!
3. have to convert some files in order to play at iphone
4. i when to china, but i cant change my sim!! i cant find a fckng small PIN!
PLEASE FIX THIS APPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
still with all these stupid flaws. i cant buy samsung galaxy or any other phones :D
well boohoo... looks like there is NO Iphone 5 this year since it was only all about IOS 5 which was featured in WWDC just a couple of days ago.
funny thing about the "new" IOS 5 is that Apple COPIED Android's features (the notification system mainly) and also Blackberry's BBM system.. so is Apple now playing catch-up?
YEAH! :) I CANT WAIT ANYMORE! :)
SAMSUNG GALAXY S2....can't wait 'til this baby is released!
To the author of the original blog: care to eat some crow? Looks like you were wrong about everything. Please don't become a fortune teller!
Here is an Idea. Get an Android, an iPod touch 5 and screw the iPhone 5G. Problem solved. You wont run into the issue of having to buy a new case or that stress you always get with the iPhone on any network. plus an iPod is just about the same as an iPhone minus the terrible case design and the more expensive cellular data plan
Still not Flash support in iPhones. Apples is just being lame for not support Flash while everything else does. Thier computers maybe good but heres another thing about the iPhone. While Everyone was already adapting to 4G in Spring 2010 Apple still continued using 3G which is not soo great. meaning apple is falling behind.
so where's the iphone 5 now?????
That's the problem with iphone users..they are so in love with the device even if Apple would give them a shit in a bucket and a slap in the face to go with it.
Come on..look at the specs of the Iphone 4 and any Android 2.3 system with all its advances (not to mention horrible Itunes!) like replacing extra battery and memorycards option.
I have got an Iphone 3G and still use it but Iphone 5 has to be skyhigh incredible if I were not to choose for a Android 2.4 or 2.5
i haven't read much of the comments here.. but surely this year.. the new LG android will be running on quad-core.. android does have less boring interface.. you can always switch it up with other developer's firmware..
Is it open line?
I would love an Iphone 5. I am not at all a big fan of the Iphone 4 mostly because I love my Iphone 3g and its slick look, the iphone 4 looks to much like other cell phones like the samsung galaxy and the htc hopefully the newer version will be similar to the 3g/3gs
You all dumb assed. It will not be release sooner. Earliest would be 2 years from now.
64 GB of memory?! WTF?! That is like 4 times what my PC has! I think I will just die in shock before that thing comes out!
upgraded iphone 4 to be released in September... might be the iPhone 4S and not a radically new design, iPhone 5 most likely to be released next year... BUT THESE ARE STILL ALL RUMORS....
huh!what does the stupid girl know about phones?
it's crazy to wait for iphone 5 while sgs 2 is already out. Maybe iphone 6 might compete with this beast...
huh!what does the stupid girl know about phones?

will apple include NFC to the iphone 5's features?
Wow, sounds like it will almost be as good as a Droid 3. It will have 4G but no keyboard. Free GPS, what a novel idea, I wish Google thought of that. And only $500, why waste my money on a $150 Droid 3. But if I get the Droid I will not get the joy of jailbreaking my phone to get it to do what I want. Tough decision.
You say: "It's going to be even thinner and have a
shiny black piece."
Piece of what?
Here in Canada we still use cell phones with "dialers" instead of buttons, and they weigh 2+1/4 pounds each. By the way, because it is so cold here, it took all of yesterday and half of today for me to download your all of your review so that I could comment. My comment is: "I'd start saving up for one right now, only if it didn't come with that little black piece, if that little black piece is what I am afraid it might be.
Finally a cell phone that will free me from that 1,943 meter long cable I've been spooling and un-spooling from my car trailer!
I like the hub :)
I'm going to buy the iphone5 for sure when it comes out. I've written some high quality hub about some interesting new specifications aswell, you should check it out!
Does the author of the article have any kind of credentials that she didnt get out of a crackerjack box?
The iPhone 5 isnt being released in 2011, apple has already stated that. apple has stated that the next iphone will not be 4G. the "talk time" has nothing to do with 4G cuz 4G is data only, not voice. "Face recognition software" is still several years away from a viable piece of software that can be put on a phone. the screen on the iphone 4 is already shatter/scratch resisitant and if they charge $500 for the device with a contract, they will go out of business.
I enjoy the ipad and iphone, but this author is a classic example of why most droid users believe that iphone users are idiots. they spout info that isnt true and expect us to beleive that because it says "apple" on the back that its the best thing since sliced bread.
the ipod 5 may be better than the evo but seriously comes up with the same shit each year an add a different perk unlike android phones the first year they were released had everything better than the iphone 4g so wat would you think if android made another great phone. than all i would have is deja vu.
Nice hub ! Just wanted to drop a "Big Hello" to apple gadget lovers...
I just couldn't stop myself from all iPhone 5 speculations and so got them all on a cool blog. Apple lovers might want to check it out www.iphone5reviewblog.com
Actually, saying Android won't come close is dead wrong. Unlike Apple, which has 5 hardware versions, Android has tons. And the fact that Android is a free OS, to use an develop for. And it has shown, as more people have a Android phone than iPhone nowadays. iPhone maybe be the most powerful when it comes out, but just watch. Android will have something. Maybe not in hardware, but in features, or choices. Something a dictatorship like Apple won't offer cause you have to do thing their way.
What a load of speculation! Everyone who is true to the iPhone series knows that what you are saying is pure speculations at this point. Apple releases nothing about hardware until they release launch dates. Android is a great software that does compete and does have some advantages but not enough to say it's the powerhouse phone that will beat Apple's dominance in the smartphone industry, both are comparable and both have there disadvantages. I could live with an android device if I had to, it does the same things my iPhone does at least for what I am interested in. My wife who also has an iPhone 4 recently went and checked out the Motorola Atrix, I played around with it too and it seemed like a pretty decent phone, but I am sticking with my iphone for now and so is my wife, we are excited to see what the iOS 5.0 will be like and we will likely sell our iPhone 4's and pick up the iPhone 5 when it releases. Don't read up on to much of the rumors people, which is all this article is. People thinking they know what they are talking about and in the end they look foolish, just like iPhone 4 everyone speculated and then leaks and the famous iPhone 4 left in the coffee shop by mistake fueled even more speculations because now we know what it looks like so now we know it does this and that lol. It will be an improvement over the iPhone 4 that much can be certain. Thanks have a nice day!
I think Iphone 3g is going to be very cheap as new Iphones will hit the market. Iphone 3g will cost around $99.
Aside from the fact that the author needs to go back to grammar school, there is nothing in this article of any real relevance. No stats of the iPhone 5, price points or release date. The talk of jailbreaking the iPhone to switch from AT&T to Sprint? You cannot. The AT&T handsets are GSM while Sprint is CDMA. You can go to T-Mobile and their network is not that much better in my area. Now with Verizon getting iPhones you can start switching but you'll be on a slow, prehistoric CDMA network so your not doing much better for yourself. The poll is the only thing worth looking at and/or reading in this nightmare of a post. I'm curious at how many of the 73% that want to buy the iPhone 5 already have an iPhone 4? With Apple upgrading the 3G to the 3GS (with minimal changes) you are already on board to upgrade from 4 to 5 without even knowing a single tech spec? I have no plans to replace my iPhone 4 unless the look, feel and usability of the phone are worth the price of exactly what you are buying, a brand NEW phone.
Is it best the iPhone 5 or the droid x I can't make up my mind
On an added note, Android is not going to be the major player in the market to take Apple down. Say it over and over again on as many pages and posts as you want but it won't make it true. I actually was Android only for 2 years and put the iPhone and Apple down like a good little soldier because I believed Android would make a comparable and better product. However, Android will never be able to win the war and for the same reason that Microsoft eventually also lost to Apple on the Home PC front (look at the tech stocks and see!) - Apple controls hardware AND software. They win by ensuring compatibility and fully functioning features. The Macs run smoothly and for the most part seamlessly. PCs and Android do not because you have different manufacturers for hardware and different manufacturers for software. Not only does this leave major gaps in the device structure, it prevents certain techs from taking off and usually results in buying a $300 device that is only supported for a year before the software maker tanked or the hardware manufacturer couldn't stay in business. Within a year my HTC Hero was never going to be upgraded again and the hardware was outdated. Over $200 and no tech support or love from the manufacturer. Alternatively, on the eve of the iPhone 5 release and I know people who still own an iPhone 3G who can upgrade to the latest iOS and still decide to keep their older phone if they don't particularly care for the hardware improvements. That is a winning strategy and a great way to ensure that customers are taken care of and given a good experience. Until Google, Microsoft or someone can pick up the ball on the PC side instead of treating the customers like a hot potato, the other markets will wax and wane with very little market share to show for it.
So, the IPhone 5 will have specs that most common phones now already have???
I already have a phone like that (with flash and java) and one who's better.
And mind you i'm not an apple or any other brand fan, i just look at the best harware i.c.w. the best software at the time, and to me this is not it, you just buy design and/or name and if that's enough for u, then that's oke, for me..., i need the best and i don't care where it comes from.
Hey Apple fans!
I was not knowing abt apple product.But when i bought iPhone 4 in April i got excellent utility.But misfortune my iPhone was stolen when i traveled to Paris.But i am not so upset for iPhone 5 is on the way to be released late in 2011.This news made me energetic and i m waiting for iPhone 5.I will buy iPhone 5, no matter how much it costs.Because, it has nice design n amazing features like face recognition n many other new.Let's hold our patience til it comes.
Not sure! i heard that iphone 5 will have a fm radio, if so. congratulations iphone the only thing missing
Hi Jonnyreb03
You say Microsoft eventually also lost to Apple on the Home PC front (look at the tech stocks and see!) check this link.
http://www.guardian.co.uk/money/2011/may/21/apple-
You will see that the new itunes 10 will run on xp which about 10 years old but won't run on a Mac thats about 4 years old. So how is Mac pc better than a windows pc? Also the Mac PC market is only about 4%, others 6%, with 90% windows based PC which must be Microsoft. So how have Microsoft lost to apple on the home PC front.
what about galaxys2?
Wow this girl stupid how the hell is apple Gona sell an iPhone for 500 hell naw that'll be a big mistake for apple...and were does she get all this info I bet she just making it up
Its is massive.. i can't wait for it to be out..
We're also waiting for this one..=)
We're also waiting for this one..=)
Phones are always more expensive without a contract, Big j. If you look at the price before the contract you will see that they are around $500.
I know for sure that the new iPhone 5 will be able to make also french fries and pancakes
Clearly you understand NOTHING of the meaning of those specs you listed. Save yourself the embarrassment and leave it there.
Oh, and face recognition, again, not really thought through that one have you - I'm not saying you're dumb, but if you can't think of a way to break into someone's 'face recognition' protected phone within the next 5 seconds, you probably are as dumb as the idea itself. Hint : no CUTTING OFF of people's faces required... as long as you have a camera.
Dear Lord, who are you and why are you writing? I like my iPhone as much as the next guy, but holy hell, where do you get off saying such crap. Please go back, redo this post with useful information and unbiased comments. I can't believe i just read that whole post of nonsense.
Dear evs,
Here's how:
http://mashable.com/2011/06/06/apple-worth-more-th
Apple now has more market share than Microsoft and Intel combined. While the article does also state that the PC lion share of the market is still "Wintel" there has to be a reason for Apple's stock dominance?
http://venturebeat.com/2011/07/28/android-gets-the
This is only one piece of Apple's dominance. The other part of the picture is iPad sales which is an extension of the PC market.
So, if we want to compare desktop and laptop only between Windows and OS X then sure it will look as though Apple is still vastly inferior to Microsoft (despite the fact that you can run Windows on Apple hardware). However, the description of PC extends far beyond "desktop" and "laptop" in today's world of multi-use devices. Once you review entire picture then Apple has Microsoft beat in the home.
I say "in the home" because Apple's server side is very weak for business software. They do not seem to have much desire to boost this area of business.
"gazillion megapixel" ? next time before you post do some research and learn to talk. the iphones cameras were lacking a year behind with its con testers which were released around the same time (evo with 8mp, and droidx with 8mp)
well well well wat ever dudes i love iphones and cant wait for the 5one came on apple did't you heard i cannntttttttt wwaaiiiittttt for it and all this is very fffuunnnyyy crazy iphone lovers :)
i love iphones...but the jailbreaks are stupid...iphone should had been more user friendly to all humans=) its crazy when you buy iphone and in the middle of the day you have to do some ninja moves for perks...gosh=(
The iPhone 5 is a must have, cant wait forthe announcement from team Apple and Steve Jobbs. Readers may find this link to a site I found useful too.
$500.00 is way to much.
I was planning on getting the iPhone 5 but $500? You've got to be kidding! When has the iPhone ever been that expensive???

Just to put these number in perspective, Apple sells 8M iPhones a quarter. If Samsung really manages to sell 10M Galaxy S by the end of the year, it’ll sell around 30% as many Androids as Apple sells iPhones. Now, apple might increase the iPhone sales rate, but we need to remember that the Galaxy only came out in the second quarter.
Very impressive achievement for Samsung.
i cant wait till the iphone 5 comes out my very first smartphone
I really hope so! In Holland (http://www.gsmpedia.nl/iphone-5) they say it's gonna come in oktober!
I will only buy one if the screen is 4" or bigger...if not I'm off to android!
Love your write up. Thanks!
Coming from an Android phone to an iPhone I can attest that the Android phones did have higher megapixel cameras and I believe still do. I can also attest that the pictures look awful on the Android phones and they look much better on the iPhone. I have colleagues who refused to switch from Android and we ran several tests with and without flash at the same objects and it was agreed (even among the Android users) that the iPhone pictures were superior. It's not all about megapixels. It's about everything working together to make the picture look as close to real as possible. iPhone has it and Android is still behind the curve.
its just that iphone probably has better screen than most phones out there. i also dont think they are gonna add all these features.
wat is the cost of iphone 4 now in ur country ?? appx how much wil be the cost of iphone5.. will there be a vast difference??
If the Iphone5 is way more then the Iphone4, then I'm just going to get the Iphone4...I have been waiting a very long time and I really really want one but waiting for Iphone5, Hope not to get disappointed......
FAN BOY, is there going to be a app for the iphone5 to change it to a samsung galaxy s2????
come on really
shinny new skin with a 5 on it and a apple symbol
stick with the iphone4
I really can't wait for the iPhone 5, I'm holding off on the iPhone 4 in hopes that the 5 will be worth the wait
I'm getting the iPhone 5 when it comes out and reading your article made me more hesitant about that purchase. Mostly because it puts one step closer to being counted the same category of person as you.
Here's some advice before you decide to spew off again.
1. Know the competitor phones you're knocking before announcing the iPhone's clear superiority. It's called research.
2. If you're going to write about tech, don't say things like "20 gigawatt gazillion megapixel". It makes you sound like an idiot.
3. Don't use the term "ubergeek" to describe yourself or anything about you.
4. Understand and acknowledge that you have a personal bias in what you are saying/supporting.
I usually like Apple Products good build quality good overall usage. It looks like there won't be any 4G btw.
I don't like how Apple tells me how to use my device. And the biggest fact why I would not buy an iPhone is because Apple, is the company who always cries when a competitor makes something that could be or look similar to what they have, while copying the entire Android notification system (but since Steve introduced it's called a revolution, well it's been around since Android's birth).
I own an iPhone 4 and a Google Nexus One I dropped my Nexus many times and not a scratch, my iPhone screen has been replaced twice (so build quality is still good with Apple, but HTC wins this one with the Nexus One).
But overall it depends on what you want, I am not here to diss either platform, if you know your technology, get an Android, if you are technologically inclined get an iPhone. The Android has more features, but the Apple features are easier to use.
In the end it's good to have choices.
@Max You sound like someone that wants everything for free. Of course you don't like Apple telling you how to use your device because you either A) steal programs, apps, or media, or B) download free apps that damage the OS or steal your information which, in turn, you will then blame Apple for allowing. Typical "me first" mentality that comes with this "Nany State" country. It would be wise to "Man Up" and start contributing to society as opposed to leaching off it.
Official release date for iphone 5 plzz
Ok so the iPhone4 was ground breaking but I think the tables have turned and now the iPhone 5 will be trying to catch up with other dual core beasts like the galaxy s2 and htc sensation
Ive had AT&T. They say, can't guarantee I can use my phone indoors
Bad reception is because my house is brick, 1 story
Basically, my phone is unusable where I live, and they could care less. It doesn't even work in the neighborhood.
I will buy iphone5
But there's a provider that's better than all these are with no contract.
Contracts are WHY service is so bad!!!
Please stop signing contracts!! I will if you will! :-)
I'd buy one if i could afford one. But i'm currently shackled to an Android-X which, it seems, was probably manufactured possibly solely for the purpose of spying on it's user/owner. It continues to function beautifully and work perfectly except that it's camera and mic(S) are often being used and controlled by a remote administrator which, of course, forces me to keep the camera covered with a band-aid until i actually need to use it. and sense i know that it's being used to A/V monitor my surroundings i simply keep it off until i actually need it even though i know that it can be turned on remotely as long as the battery is charged and installed. it should be noted here that since the NSA wrestled control of google away from it's rightful owners DHS have pressured companies to provide them with backdoor access to our personal electronic devices, e.g., PDAs, cell phones, notebooks/laptops and anything with a camera or mic or owner-accessible file storage and access to the internet. the effort represents a new norm and is, to say the least, massive.
this is an illicit use of unregulated power and if we don't stop it there may come a point beyond which we are unable to. you and i have to decide how to organize and collaborate to get our country (our WORLD) back. it won't happen by itself and i believe that we are running out of time.

I'm gonna buy this phone if Sprint takes it!! I have enough with AT&T's crappy service... grrrrrrr... Sprint has the best 4G signal so far. I cant wait until they release this... the iphone 4 is cool but it looked too "rectangular" to me and its a bit thick. I was looking for something that looks more sleek and slim. Then here comes iP5! Yay! Thanks for the review, cant wait for this phone!

one thing i hate about apple product they will never tell you when iphone 5 come out they just want to make sure you waist your money on iphone 4 to me that stupid 3 people bought iphone 4 at my work with out knowing about iphone 5 to me the full of bullshit.
There's more information about it here http://iphone5features.net/ . It seems like it will be announced this month and on sale early next month. Check it out if you don't believe me.
Nice review of the iPhone5. Yesterday a pic got leaked online claiming it to be snapped from iPhone 5. Apple fans can find the info on this site where I've read http://iphone5specifications.com/is-this-the-first
Looks like we will see an 8 megapixel camera.
Android because it is less restrictive and more customizable. Also new Android Galaxy S2 comes outwith LTE support and 1.5 gHz dual core, which apple reportedly will not install. Oh and Flash is included since 2008.
Apple is good for Starbucks, for everything else there is Android :)
I can't wait for it to come out. I'm on Verizon and using a Droid Charge and I'm ready to get rid of this for the IPhone 5.
Are you kidding $500 for a phone.. It will be a same price as a yamaha motorcycle. LMFAO

I was thinking of buying an ipone 4 but now i just gotta wait for the iphone 5
Very cool article. I think we are all very excited for this phone to come out and there is tons of hype surrounding its launch.
sana ilabas na iphone5 para malaman ang total price nya.. :D
You should not be allowed to post tech article.I was innocently surfing till I found your page . I've never really been compelled to comment ,but your just .............. Not bright
this is actually a joke. no one gives a sh*t about apple's 2 year old technology. (duel core processor's). ANY HTC PHONE THATS BEEN OUT IN THE MARKET IN THE PAST YEAR BEATS THE IPHONE 4. and now the iphone 5 will get DESTROYED by the new HTC phones or even the nexus prime.
@MATT.
I remember when I had an android...then I got an iPhone and was happy because once you have an android for a year they come out with a new one and stop giving you things...people with iPhone 3G can get the new iOS 5, nuff said.
You've all noticed those "Click here for a free iPhone 5" banners at the top of a webpage before, and most people write these advertisements off as some sort of scam. But in actual fact, there are several legitimate "Incentivized Freebie Websites" (IFWs) which DO give out free iPhones. Such as www.freeipod4.me.uk and http://gifts.kudosnetwork.co.uk/26334
So what's the catch?
IFWs operate on a simple principle. Sign up, complete an advertiser's offer, and refer a certain number of other people to sign up under you. Unlike pyramid marketing schemes, each person who signs up has an equal opportunity to get a prize, and there is no advantage to being at the "top" as everyone has the same requirements and can get the same rewards. The catch is that your referrals only count if THEY also try out one of the advertisers' offers. This is because the payout that the IFW receives from the advertiser is what is used to pay for the freebie.
It's not impossible to find enough friends to sign up under you for your freebie, but it is tough, and that's where referral trading comes into the picture. When the IFW craze really started to take off, several online communities sprang up including forums where members could trade referrals. Although each person can only sign up for each IFW freebie once, there are enough different sites out there that people could trade signups with other members in order to complete their own freebies.
If you've signed up for one freebie and don't want to sign up for any more, all is not lost, however. Many people wanting to make a quick buck online are willing to be paid to be a referral (to sign up under the payer and complete the offer requirements). Of course, paying for referrals takes away the "free" aspect of a freebie, but with the average prize value of a referral at about $40-$50, and a going rate for referrals of around $15-30, it's still possible to make a tidy profit even while paying people to sign up. Paying for referrals is also an easy way to finish off a site where you need just one or two more signups to complete the prize requirements.
Anytime money is exchanged online, there is a risk of being scammed. This is why freebie referral trading communities such as Anything4Free.com and FreeIpodGuide.com have strict trading policies and "trader ratings" which indicate the reliability of the trader (usually based on the number of successful trades so far), much like the feedback system on eBay.com. Of course, despite this system there will always be the chance of losing money this way, but the majority of the time, referral trading works in the favour of both parties, allowing both traders to make money and freebies, as well as making friends in the process.
IFW Referral trading allows freebie enthusiasts a way around the "catch" which brings profit both to the company and its clients. The company increases their member base through the number of new signups, and the clients are able to finish the site requirements and receive their prize. Everybody wins, and some great communities are now firmly established which should survive as long as IFWs are around, and probably longer.

There have already been phones released that can video chat on 4g networks.
There have already been phones released that have dual core processors, better graphics processors and better battery life.
No cell phone has HD audio...period.
They had built in GPS in phones for 10 years.
There's nothing to be excited about.
Oct 4 is the date! problem is will it really be an iPhone 5 or just an iPhone 4S... or both!?
hey do buy my shirt design and apparels at “www.cafepress.com/smileytees” thanks!:) and advance holiday to everyone! God Bless! Hopefully we all could get the Iconic iPhone5 this year!:)

utter rubbish... iphone 5 features wud be just matching the already fantastic samsung galaxy s2.. which already has dual core processor.. 18.30hrs talk time... voice asssitant.. HD recording.. and... BIGGER SCREEN and THINNER...
that is a really cool phone
64G of memory?! Is this the year 2111?
This author is not knowledgeable. There is the attention you so desperately wanted.
When is the iPhone 5 coming out.
Nice review. I have also read a similar review with all images and pictures, you might want to have a look.
I definitely agree with CK. There are already several Android phones out there that do these things. iPhone 5 will be a formidable device, but the Samsung Galaxy S2 is already doing these things and then some.
Iphone 5 is going to have more features than android???? Ha, the features that are coming for the iphone 5 are already in numerous android devices. Its nothing special, doesnt use any new technology, The only difference is the iphone cost 3 times as much. Just a smaller version of the ipad. come one people.
I laugh at all the fan boys claiming one company to be better then the next. It is truly sad but, I must expect it from the internet.
I think I may have gained a few years of my life laughing at all the comments posted, that is one of the main reasons I am here.
However I do not understand why all the android and other fan boys showed up to a article about an Iphone 5, trying to show off there muscles. It is truly sad.
iPhone5 because its gonna have way more features duh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11
I think that apple fans always talk shit about android and othr competitors because they are actually afraid of them... fear of the unknown superpower
would like to buy iphone 5
I was looking for iPhone5 Contracts and found http://www.iphone5contracts.com
What are you smoking girl....
the new iphone 5 is the bomb..planning on getting one soon.
Everything that the Iphone 5 will be receiving has been accessible on any android device for quite some time now. I don't care who owns an Iphone and i don't think any device is better but if you're going to advertise for apple, why not include highlights that will convince everyone, including android users? All I see here is Iphone lovers preaching to Iphone lovers, this review is absolutely pointless.
it will also be able to hold your credit cards so you dont have to carry a wallet it will be on ur phone. BITCHESSSSSSSSS
this guy sounds stupid pretty much every feature/quality on the phone is on an android already im pretty sure htc sound is now gonna feature beats by dre quality all new phones have dual cores and samsung galaxy s2 is running shit
I hate Fanboys/girls?. What a waste of time reading this article was. Please do yourself (and the rest of the world) a favor and never write another article again.
Reviews should be about features, specs, prices. Not "ZOMG ANDROID WILL NEVER WIN TEH CELL PHONE BATTLE LOLOLOL10101010101010101010"
Seriously, it looks like you just got off xbox live and wrote an article then got back on to pwn newbs in gears.
you hardly mentioned some of the features, and some of your info was off, although i still like iPhone, i don't own one, but i acknowledge that they are good, and how the heck is computer only 32GB, the standard size these days is at least 1000, and most people upgrade to more :P
P T Barnum was right.......
So how dumb do you feel now? iphone 5 LOL
WANT AN IPHONE 5!? WAIT TILL NEXT YEAR! HELLO IPHONE 4S! :D
ciaokatherine using iPhone 4S asks SIRI:
ciaokatherine: "When will the real iPhone 5 come out?"
SIRI: "...uhm, uhm, Please repeat your question"
umm your retarded, it won't revolutionize anything, samsung,motarola and htc already hade the 1.0ghz and 1.5ghz dual-core snapdragon like a year and a half before the iphone 4s was even showcased. and iphone 4s only has 512mb ram others have 1gb. and iphone 4 didn't have the best/super high megapixel camera in phones. it only has 5MP samsung and motorola and htc all have 8mp, that is what the iphone 4s is now getting. your really dumb do more research before posting this shit. the new phone is using old tech that others have had for over a year. and the other phones shot video in 1080p before iphone 4s such as the samsung android. you want to know why people jailbreak iphones? its because the software sucks for customizing and and use of homebew aps. the android os you can do way more stuff. u can even play snes roms (donkeykong country anyone?). now the iphone is a great phone and is the reason other companies have been making better phones but its not god. and is not the best phone. im not a iphone hater but i do hate idiots that rave about false info. i already pre-orderd the iphone 4s and getting the motorola bionic as my second phone.
good luck to you all and don't listen to this bullshit like i said before old tech others have already had.
oh, one more thing i am only getting the iphone 4s because its a world phone it has gsm and cdma in the same phone unlike the iphone 4 where there was separate models. i have verizon but i travel overseas sometimes and i would rather have the iphone 4s than a crackberry. now im not sure if any of the new androids on verizon ofer world compatibility like the blackberrys (curve world edition or BB storm) if so let me know i will get rid of both phones for it as long as the phone can run the newest android os
i see it ant the iphone5 its still iphone 4s
This is a big blow to Apple that they didn't release the iPhone 5 on time. Also I send out my sincere condolences to family and friends of Steve Jobs. His death is a bigger loss to the company and the world than a release of some technology that is here today and gone tomorrow. I have a blog http://buyiphone5.blogspot.com/ where I like to chat about these kind of things.
it makes sense that the 4s came out.remember there is a pattern for apple's releases.3g then 3gs.so people that are "upset" because of no iphone5 and are blaming apple,are nothing but a bunch of morons
"The new iPhone 5 is expected to have Face Recognition Security so that you don't have to worry about other people stealing your phone and trying to use it... That is, unless they steal your face too. (Anyone seen Face Off?)"
you mean Android 4.0 ice cream sandwich is to have face recognition oh wait! it has.
I want that iphone 5 so much.................................................
so all you fanboys enjoying your iphone 5 after all that research you did !!!??? Looks like you ALMOST got close to android..when the 5 comes out you'll need a 12 to catch up..get over it already iphones suck !! I tried one for a month and sold it for a 100 loss I HATED THAT PIECE OF CRAP..all you fanboys who rec it only make phone calls and text..calls all drop unless you add that "highly functional and stylish" POS "bumper" how "PRETTY' Get over his POS already, will you die for it ?!?!?
I will die if i don't get one!
think about the cool features like the laser keypad and the holograms!
hey isn't this setting the bar really high for apple-i can't wait to see what will come out next!
I'm aware of the new iPhone 5 coming, I have an iPhone 4 presently BUT... as I need a bigger display area, I'm 63 and my eyesight just is not as it was, I am considering a Samsung Galaxy Note !! Or as my granddaughter calls it , a Sampson !! Can you help me as I don't know the difference between iPhone & Android .
I know Steve Jobs didn't like Android, and look what he did for Apple RIP thanks

I'll definitely be buying the iPhone 5 when it comes out, the iPhone 4 I have now is amazing and it's so much faster than the iPhone 3.
I'm sure that this new one will be amazing, I'm hoping it can finally support FLAC audio files.
