With conflicting rumors reports that the iPhone 5 may be launched in September or October, the only thing we know for sure at this time is that there will be an iPhone 5 this year, and it's going to be big! When exactly this iPhone 5 will be released is a mystery.
If there is an indication of things moving along, it may be this report from The Guardian that claims that carriers have received sample versions of the iPhone 5 in order to test them on their network...
I can already see eyes rolling after reading the headline: "Great, another iPhone 5 rumor." If that's the case, then move along. Complaining that there's too much talk about the upcoming iPhone on an iPhone-focused website is like complaining there's too much chocolate in your chocolate milk.
However, if you are anxiously awaiting the device's impending launch, you'll likely be happy to hear this particular piece of gossip. A Sterne Agee analyst told investors this morning that the iPhone 5 won't be the "modest update" that a lot of folks are expecting...
Although it seems like we are constantly hearing conflicting rumors involving Apple's next smartphone, there is one thing all of the gossip seems to agree on: a release date. Not only do they all suggest a Fall launch, a lot of the information has pointed specifically to September.
We've heard this "confirmed" by everyone from analysts with inside sources to carrier execs, and the date lines up nicely with Apple's annual iPod event. Although September makes sense for several reasons, AllThingsDigital is reporting that Apple won't launch the iPhone 5 until October...
Would you buy an Apple TV set? That's the billion dollar question I'm sure Steve Jobs and company are asking themselves right now, as speculation continues to suggest that Apple is bringing an HDTV to market in the not-so-distant future.
While the Cupertino company has identified their interests in the TV industry as "a hobby," there have been several reports over the last 12 months that indicate they are about to take it to the next level. So what could Apple do to make their TV set better than the competition?
Rumors of an iPhone 5 announcement this Fall have been highly contradictory with each other over the last few weeks. Will it be announced in August? Will it launch in September or October instead?
Well, if you just can't take waiting anymore for Apple to unveil their upcoming smartphone, gizChina might have a temporary solution for you. The gadget blog just came across an interesting counterfeit device modeled after the yet-to-be-announced iPhone...
We know, iPhone 5 rumors have gotten way out of hand. It seems like we are hearing 2 or 3 a day now. Aside from being annoying, the increased chatter is also a sign that we are getting close to an Apple announcement.
In fact, we are seeing a few indications that the iPhone 5 is nearing launch time. Multiple purported cases for the device have been surfacing, and now there are several reports claiming that previous models of the iPhone are being discounted and maybe even discontinued...
If you would have asked the world 40 years ago what 2012 would be like, a lot of folks would have probably said that we'd be driving vehicles that didn't touch the ground and there'd be tons of robots.
While flying-cars still appear to be a long ways away from materializing, the latter prediction may not be too far off. Apple's go to parts manufacturing firm Foxconn is reportedly about to add 1 million robots to the population...
Yet again, we bring you news of iPhone 5 cases. According to MIC Gadget, iPhone 5 cases are "now everywhere" in China. The site has another gallery of the new designs, and these appear to be no different than any of the other cases we have showed you.
Chinese manufacturers appear to be confident that this is the design for the iPhone 5, as they have started mass producing them already. There is a huge incentive for these companies to have cases ready when the product comes out...
There have been a lot of rumors floating around about the iPhone 5, especially this close to the alleged launch date. The rumors have been that new iPhone will be slimmer, have a bigger screen, and have a curved design.
With all the leaked iPhone case pictures making the rounds, it certainly seems that way. Today we have new pictures from 9to5mac that give you a pretty good look at the potential design...
Last week we brought you some photos, published by 9to5Mac, of a possible next-gen iPod Touch part. The piece was particularly interesting because it was white. As you might know, previous versions of the iPod Touch have always been black with a stainless steel backing.
Now, the same blog that brought us the original photos of the white iPod Touch casing has gotten its hands on more pictures. While the original snapshots were taken in Asian, close to Apple's manufacturing plants, these new pics come from here in America...
The United States' 3rd largest wireless carrier held their quarterly earnings call yesterday, and the company posted a net loss of $847 million. In wake of the poor performance, Sprint's stock dropped nearly 16% by the time the market closed last night.
Although they added a cool million customers last quarter, the company lost 101,000 contacts. What could be causing such a massive leak? Sprint cited Apple's popular smartphone, especially the $49 iPhone 3GS, as a major factor for the customer deflections...
Customers that are still on AT&T's unlimited data plan may soon see some of their grandfathered privileges revoked, as AT&T will reportedly begin throttling data hogs on its network come October.
Verizon has already started throttling 'unlimited' data customers, and AT&T looks to be adopting the same practice— all in time for the iPhone 5's launch in September. AT&T will be implementing this throttling to help speed up its slow 3G network that has plagued iPhone users for years.
