Engadget has the picture of a shelf tag for a 16GB white iPhone 4, supposedly spotted at a Best Buy location in Houston. At $599, we can only imagine this is a contract-free iPhone.
There has been more and more rumors lately about the availability of a white iPhone 4, which might lead us to think Apple's own unicorn might indeed hit the shelves sooner than later. Heck, even Woz confirmed it...
All signs have been pointing to Apple releasing iOS 4.3 in the very near future, with speculation that Apple's 4.3 announcement could even come next week. Most speculation is centering on an Apple announcement taking place within the next 10 days.
Besides an iOS 4.3 announcement, Apple is rumored to be announcing the iPad 2, the Verizon iPhone's "Personal Hotspot" feature on AT&T, and an official release of in-app subscriptions.
Whether or not all of the speculation is accurate, it's evident that Apple will be holding an event in the near future...
Apple's co-founder, Steve Wozniak, recently confirmed that issues with the infamous white iPhone 4 are fixed and that the product would be ready to ship in the near future. In an interview with Engadget, Woz addressed some of the mysterious problems that have been preventing the white iPhone 4 from shipping.
According to Woz, the white paint was not the only problem with the mythical unicorn. The white iPhone parts were causing the iPhone's camera to malfunction.
In the interview, Woz claims that Apple has fixed the production line issues with the white iPhone 4, and that shipping should begin in the distant future...
We've heard numerous reports, claims, and rumors about the white iPhone 4's inevitable release, but nothing ever panned out. Recently, however, the tide seems to be turning and the rumors are looking a lot more credible.
You no doubt read our report on Best Buy's inventory system, which lists Apple's mythical product as being due in late February. Now another important Apple partner is giving the white iPhone rumors signs of life.
The latest partner to re-list the white iPhone 4 is none other than AT&T. If that doesn't lend credence to the rumor, then nothing will...
Rumors about the iPhone 5 and iOS 4.3 have been running rampant lately. While a lot of "leaks" and speculation has been made about Apple's major upcoming version of iOS, not much has been said about the iPhone 5's hardware. All we've heard is a report from Engadget that the iPhone 5 will be a "total redesign" of the current version.
The mysterious device is rumored to have Apple's new A5 CPU processor, a universal baseband for all carriers, and a larger display with no home button. No specific launch date has been set, and apparently only the head honchos at Apple have access to iPhone 5 prototypes.
The iPhone 5 was rumored to have hit the testing stage back in October of 2010, so it's not a stretch to say that field testing units are in circulation at Cupertino. Apple has yet to divulge any direct information about the iPhone 5, but a new report claims that we won't be seeing a product launch before summer. That is, unless one gets left in a bar again...
The Apple rumor mill has been churning fast and furiously over the past few weeks. There's been more white iPhone 4 speculation, some details about the iPhone 5 released, and the rumor that the next iPhone will be without a home button.
Details about iOS 4.3 have started to emerge in light of the beta that Apple recently made available to the developer community. Among these details, it seems that, after the failure of Ping, Apple may be trying its luck again with another social media attempt.
The iPad's home screen has had landscape mode compatibility since product launch, but Apple has not yet brought that feature to the iPhone. Many have asked for a landscape home screen, but it has been absent from the iPhone for years. Well, that is, until now...
It looks as though the iPad won't be the only one to get the new multitouch gestures unearthed in the iOS 4.3 beta. Boy Genius has released some iPhone screenshots that are claimed to come from internal testing at Apple's headquarters in Cupertino.
We recently reported on the rumor that the next major version of the iPhone would have no home button. Instead, it was supposed that iOS would use multitouch gestures (two, three, four fingers, etc.) to replace the functionality of the home button.
This new report seems to support the theory of no home button on the iPhone 5. Apparently, Apple has been testing multitouch gestures on the iPhone (there is nothing to clarify if the screenshots are associated with new hardware) internally for quite some time...
Take the following information with a nice dose of salt. We've all heard these rumors before, but MacRumors is reporting that the mythical white iPhone 4 could see a release as early as next month.
Originally scheduled to launch alongside the black iPhone 4 last summer, the white version has hit stumbling block, upon stumbling block, with still no clear-cut reason for the length of the delay.
Apple has reportedly experienced manufacturing issues with the all white iPhone 4, but it looks like those issues may have been ironed out. That's right, Best Buy's computers are showing the white iPhone 4 SKU, with a release date of February 27th, 2011...
Now that we're done with our round of Verizon iPhone rumors, it's time for the interweb to come up with a whole new set of speculations, leaks, and unverified information about a new device: the iPhone 5.
That's Engadget who started this new rumor mill by citing multiple sources (anonymous, of course) who claim to have details about the iPhone 5, set to launch sometimes this summer...
A new, unexpected report from Boy Genius is claiming that the next version of the iPhone and iPad will have no home button. That's right, a device with hardly any physical buttons will lose its only major one. This rumor doesn't seem unlike Apple, we are talking about a company who took all of the buttons off the iPod Nano at one point.
It seems that the reason multitouch gestures were added to the iPad in iOS 4.3 is because Apple plans to implement such gestures for all iDevices. These multi-finger gestures would most likely replace the current functionality of the home button. Boy Genius Report reveals the following...
I know it's unlikely, but perhaps you've heard a thing or two about an upcoming little announcement regarding the iPhone, and some mobile carrier called Verizon. Sarcasm aside, let's look at the latest details that we've gathered about the iPhone's inevitable jump from AT&T exclusivity to CDMA land.
Join us as we take a look at some of the most interesting facts about this mobile landscape changing event. Face it, the Verizon iPhone is real, and it's right around the corner...
Here it is folks. It appears I was wrong when I predicted there wouldn't be a Verizon iPhone this year as many tech writers/bloggers are receiving a mysterious invitation to an event that's going to happen on 1.11.11.
It's no surprise that we didn't get invited but some high profile Apple bloggers were. MG Siegler of TechCrunch for example, got a personal invite. Siegler confirms that it is the first time Verizon sends him an invite directly. Other Apple-related experts claim they received a similar invitation...
