I can't wait! I have the 4S but just love getting new Apple stuff. Besides, they're practically free, I sell my old iPhone on ebay for more than a new one costs every time (just gotta make sure to keep it in good condition).

I suppose I'm most excited for 4G LTE

It appears there is really no "concrete" evidence of what the phone will be called or what features it will offer. iOS6 will be the operating system though, and they did away with Google Maps and the Youtube App. Pictures have leaked and appear to be longer than the iPhone4S. Everything is still rumors as far as I can tell and Apple has no comment on the matter. They are saying they should release a new phone by the end of fall. The connector appears smaller, the headphone jack appears to have been relocated. Anybody have any substantial evidence of anything further?




I also found this:
"The iPhone 5 display measures 90.25mm in height and 51.60mm in width and would thus be larger than the display of the iPhone 4S. The display of the previous model was 76.65mm and 51.60mm wide. This could mean that instead of the current iOS, which features four rows of apps on the home screen, five rows may be available iOS6."

"Further differences of the iPhone 5 in comparison to the iPhone 4S, are the camera position and the size of the home button area. The front camera and the associated light sensor migrate to the middle of the upper edge of the screen. The camera as well as the home button are slightly smaller than its predecessor."

"But not only the size will change, but the new In-Cell technology makes the display a bit thinner, which provides more space for a larger battery."

A speculation to the look based off of "leaked" photos and rumors:

I used to think the iphone was all hype. Now I get it. My new 4s seems much more refined than my evo was, all the way down to the accuracy of the touch screen.

It sounds like you will have to go onto the web to access it, there will not be a preloaded app for youtube. I do this now anyway since the site works better than the current app. Still speculation of course.

Google will likely create their own app and release it in the app store, maybe even by the time iOS 6 launches

Default Re: iPhone 5

I've been waiting for this for a long time (Had the 3G and let my contract run out rather than pick up a phone and get sucked into another 2 year deal). So for now I just have my work phone and my home phone line. The wife has the 4S which hasn't impressed me. Siri still needs a LOT of work and was not worth an upgrade for the mini bump in speed. I will be comparing the iPhone5 to the Samsung Galaxy SIII and picking the better of the two when the results finally come out. This has taken...well..forever for me.

I just upgraded to the iphone 4s after having an evo 4g. This phone blows the evo away. I find apple products to be more refined.

I want bigger. I wish it was going to be wider as well as longer but it appears it will just be longer. If you like the 4S size you are lucky as they are much cheaper. I really want to get a bigger phone.

It will be (a little) wider as well.

I hope so, the leaked photos are basically the same width and just longer.

Here is one mock-up photo that shows a comparsion -- I also read a review that had more details on the dimensions but I can't find the site right now.

I am pretty sure that is not a valid mock up. Everything is still speculation at this point but I have seen the pics of the 5 with an extra row of apps, making it longer in shape. I am guessing that the case will be much longer than the 4. The mock up you showed appears to be almost the same case but a bigger screen.

It is kinda fun speculating about what it will look like, I just hope it is not dissapointing.

Here is a leaked photo that shows them side by side, of course this all could be faked:

I agree with shane. The newest leaks have the 5 being the same width but longer and being able to hols 5 rows of apps instead of 4.
