I hear that they're going to include an sd card slot. "Innovation!" :lol:, who am I kidding, why would they ever do that, no one would buy the higher capacity verisons then.

From what some people tell me, this summer, Apple will release the iPhone 5.

I don't think they will release a new version anytime soon. But some websites say that it will be a whole new design.

No doubt 2011 knowing Apple. Haven't heard any rumors about the features though.

I would expect it to be released around June/July. It will almost certainly include the new 'A5' chip, a redesign and I really can't think of much else. Oh wait, a white version.

No real info yet. Most likely in the summer as per norm.

Give me a 4+ inch screen and I will consider the fruit.

I guarantee it will come out in June. It won't be a true iPhone 5, but an iPhone 4S. Like the iPhone 3G to iPhone 3GS.

It will probably be another version of the iPhone 4 (iPhone 4GS, like the iPhone 3GS). More than likely, the major improvement will be the speed. They will put their new chip in it. Apart from that, rumors are just that it will probably be smaller and the screen will be bigger. Maybe better cameras. But that is really it.

Are they seriously gonna release a new phone just a year after iphone 4? Most people are on 100-year contracts for those things... I guess the scheme is to get people to endlessly renew their phones and their contracts before they expire.

Haven't you realized they have been coming out with a new phone every year... And also the contracts are only two years. Lastly, if you get an iphone the contract is only one year if you decide to upgrade to the new iphone.

I think iphone3 came out in 2007/2008 and 4 in 2010. Also everywhere I look, they're 3 year contracts.

Possibly, a couple versions with different screens sizes. 3.5, 3.7, and 4 inches. And the new A5 chipset, which is actually very impressive. It's destroying the Tegra 2 in benchmarks. Probably 4G. Maybe more RAM. Who else thinks they're gonna call it the iPhone 4G?

actually it will be a true iphone 5, the one thing engadget has confirmed is a 4 inch screen instead of the current 3.5 and most likely will be 4G LTE compatible. so yes it will be a true iPhone 5

Iphone could still bring a lot of customers to sprint, Execs at apple have been hinting about it not being exclusive to at&t and verizon, and we all know it isn't going to t-mobile..

I think apple is going to make sprint a deal they can't refuse... and sprint would be stupid to turn it down. I read somewhere that if sprint got the Iphone their consumer base would have an estimate growth of almost 10 million subscribers.

the reason verizon got the iPhone is because they actually wanted it. if sprint doesnt want it apple isnt going to waste their time and money making it availible for them if its just gonna tank.

Yeah, they banked on the palm pre awhile ago. That didn't work out too well. Robert Brust even said in a conference that it was a bad decision

* Camera gets upgraded from 5MP to 8MP.

* 4G compatible

* dual core processor or a 1.5 ghz processor

* improved graphics chip

* A few mm thinner

* 64gb memory

I expect those changes. And I assume they'll keep the UI, design, 720p recorder, etc...

Won't be iPhone 5. It will be iPhone 4.5. Expect a July release, marketing to push for cheap upgrades for current 3G users, then a 2012 iPhone 5 release.

Calling it now:

same screen

different case design

massively underclocked A5 or A4 overclocked a bit from the current (rather pitiful) ~750MHz

I doubt there'll be a new iPhone 5 this year to be honest. They did the iPhone, the iPhone 3G and the iPhone 3GS before they finally revised it and did a whole new model outright. The iPhone 4 is still pretty new. It has a few minor internal updates to go through before they re-design the thing.

apple releases their products once a year, they wont break that chain
