Re: iPhone 5

That's actually pretty apt considering Forbes tech just put out a article that said apple will put the iPads brain into the iPhone aka A5 dual core processor.

Re: iPhone 5

^^ yep, I was just reading that. There are also other rumors that say an 8mp camera is coming. Hate their hardware upgrade schedule, once you can afford the new model a better one comes out. fuuuuuuuuuuu

Re: iPhone 5

Hmmm I really hate the teardrop design, how are you going to hold the phone when it's so thin? Even when I use the iPhone 4 it feels like it's gonna drop outta my hand.

pertaining to prices, and how swiftly tech teirs up and advances overnight. are you gonna go out and buy a phone or rig as soon as it comes out?

Re: iPhone 5

No didn't mean it like that. Just saying the rate the companies build this out and for the Chinese/Taiwanese/Koreans to manufacture it, it's just impossible to know when a new upgrade is released. Shit happens overnight these days. So no matter what you do, what you buy, it gets superseded the next day.

Re: iPhone 5

yup. that's why i'll kick back for a bit and settle for a strong, high-end gadget that will last about 3-5 years.

the chinese/taiwanese surely are not the inventive leaders of thought and innovation... but they sure as fuck know how to reproduce anything exact

Re: iPhone 5

^^ That maybe true for a computer but with phones, I mean EVERYONE has one and with phone companies throwing away new devices at you at dirt cheap rates when your contract is up, how do you NOT get a new phone?

Re: iPhone 5

just recently, for many reasons, i got a windows phone 7 LOL (it is bad ass). gonna hold off for several years to see what apple does though.

i try to stay off my smart phone as much as possible in last analysis --- shit is consuming!

I wouldn't mind something to read RSS and comics with, but :hollow:new iPad:hollow:—what a joke.

Will there be an iPhone 5 this year?

Re: iPhone 5

I think I read recently maybe September? And rumours of liquid metal :lol:

#1609398Post 26 of 29

Re: iPhone 5

I am predicting an October release ..... really all I want to see is a different slimmer design with more of an open screen/face.

#1609515Post 27 of 29

Re: iPhone 5

bleh

#1609524Post 28 of 29

Re: iPhone 5

I'm imagining full-metal like a unibody, bigger screen, better camera, faster processor. I can't imagine it being slimmer; right now the iPhone has a nice heft and feels right in the hand, it's probably pushing the point of diminishing returns going slimmer.

Re: iPhone 5

As long as it doesn't look like the Dell phone that is out there..that thing looks like a bloody tablet.
