iPhone 5

The buzz is growing! Even some pictures have been released on Photobucket which are supposedly pics of the real deal iPhone 5! Will Apple confirm it? Of course not. Does the fact that people are curious about iPhone 5 make it a certainty that it's coming out this year? Not in and of itself, no. But it HAS been a while and the rumors that are swirling seem to be fairly normal. Here at buyIphone5, we are pretty sure that a Fall 2012 release of the iPhone 5 is in the works.

The pictures don't have to be accurate for some of the details leaking out to be true. For example, most people, including insiders close to the production lines, agree that the iPhone 5 will have a bigger screen, close to 4 inches. It could even be a shade bigger than 4 inches. The goal is not just a bigger screen but a better ratio (16 x 9) for watching media.

iPhone 5 will also surprise us with faster data capabilities and a much faster processor. This will take some jamming for the engineers to get more battery power in to run it all as long as possible, but the 4 inch screen size will only help that endeavor.

All in all, the waiting game will just continue until more hectic activity is seen among the Apple employees. We will see no vacation orders and things like that and we'll all know it's just a matter of time. In the meantime, enjoy the summer, get some sun and don't worry too much about it.

Apple's been busy in court, particularly suing Samsung to keep them from releasing the latest Galaxy phones in the U.S. It will be interesting to hear the outcome. Will Apple have to put an advertisement on it's website for Samsung? These questions will probably be answered before we have new hardware in our hands.
