iPhone 5 Will Release The On October 4 By Apple

iPhone 5 will be officially revealed on October 4, at a presentation ceremony led by Apple’s new Chief Executive Officer, Tim Cook.

From still unconfirmed information, we learn that iPhone 5 will be found in stores just weeks after the official presentation event.
IPhone5 launch is particularly important for Apple, practically the only weapon of the company against the Android phones available in a huge variety of models, adapted for all categories of users and budgets.

As before, Apple relies all or nothing on the success of a new generation of iPhone. Although risky, the bet has worked very well for the iPhone 4 which, despite design issues, still managed to dominate the mainstream market of smartphones, bringing company huge profits.

On the iPhone’s success depend other Apple partner companies. For example, Foxconn is rumored to produce about 150,000 iPhones 5 a day. Manufacturers of iPhone accessories are seeking to make a profit from enthusiastic audience, preparing huge stocks of protective covers and other accessories for the iPhone5.

Updated iPhone AND iPad Could Debut

Apple just released the iPad 2 last March, but the device expected in September wouldn't be completely new, reports say, but a high-definition version of the current model with double the screen resolution, or 2048 by 1536 pixels.

Geared Toward Professionals

Citing inside sources, Joshua Topolsky of ThisIsMyNext described the relationship between the two devices as similar to that of the MacBook and MacBook Pro, geared less to ordinary consumers than to professional users. The "iPad HD" would suit video Relevant Products/Services and photo production, possibly with a special iPad version of Final Cut filmmaking and Aperture photo editing software, he said.

That report is backed up by a research note by FBR Capital Markets analyst Craig Berger, who hears that Apple has put out a request for price quotes from Chinese manufacturers for components for an "iPad Plus."

Rolling out both a newer iPad and an iPhone 5 would be a great way for Apple to show off its latest mobile operating system, iOS 5, which is due in the fall with some 200 additional features. And the new HD tablet could mark a shift in the company's marketing strategy.

"Rumors of a 'professional-grade' version of iPad don't seem too far-fetched," said mobile devices analyst Jeff Orr of ABI Research. "The company has a loyal following in the entertainment and content creation industries. However, creating a product focused on content interaction and editing seems a distraction from the greater need for a professional media tablet that cuts across job descriptions in the enterprise Relevant Products/Services today. "

Orr noted that Apple's financial briefings have stressed the corporate response to iPad, while its marketing focuses on the ordinary consumer.

"Building a rugged, reliable and secure solution for the workplace appears to be a much bigger opportunity," said Orr. "Allowing a movie director to review the digital dailies on a media tablet is 'cool', but not essential. The ability for a media tablet to enhance existing workflow in the media industry will be the measuring stick for success."

An Even Thinner iPhone

The Wall Street Journal reported this week that, according to its sources, the iPhone 5 will launch by the end of September with a more powerful, eight-megapixel camera and a thinner and lighter design -- but still only a moderately different version of the current iPhone.

A person familiar with the matter told the Journal that Apple would include the Qualcomm chips it installed in the Verizon Wireless version of the iPhone 4, released in January, in the iPhone 5, rather than the Intel Relevant Products/Services processors used in previous versions.

Apple usually releases new iPhones in early summer but reports said the company couldn't have the fifth-generation model ready in time.

iPhone 5 Enters Final Phase Of Testing

The iPhone 5 has reportedly entered the final stage of testing, and is already being hauled around by "high level Apple and carrier executives." That's the word today from the the tech site 9 to 5 Mac, which puts the launch date of the iPhone 5 – or whatever the device is going to be called (iPhone 4S?) – at September of this year. Just in time for the Christmas rush! And also more or less in line with the once-a-year Apple launch schedule.


9 to 5 Mac says this newest iPhone won't necessarily get 3G FaceTime support – you'll probably still need to hook up with a Wi-Fi connection to video chat with friends and family – but over-the-air software updates look increasingly certain.

Thus far, no Apple employees have left a spare iPhone 5 around a California bar, so we have no idea what the phone will look like. The received wisdom in the tech blogosphere is that the iPhone 5 will closely resemble the iPhone 4 – boxy, flat, slim. But back in May, at least one tech site reported that Apple had invested in machines equipped to cut curved glass, which could mean Apple is rejiggering the shape of its popular smartphone.

Over at CNET, David Carnoy mulls the possibility that the new iPhone will include 4G capability. This makes sense – Sprint, AT&T, and Verizon have all rolled out (or are in the process of rolling out) 4G networks. An iPhone that did not include a 4G antenna could make Apple look behind the game, especially considering the profusion of 4G phones which have hit the market in recent months. Then again, the original iPhone did not offer 3G, even though the network was in full effect at the time.

New iPhone Release By Apple This September

Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference passed last week without a new iPhone being launched so it’s time for the rumour mill to get started.


Apple has typically used its Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) in San Francisco to unveil the new iPhone. The iPhone 3G, the 3GS and the iPhone 4 were all announced at WWDC but this year Apple chose to focus on software.

The latest rumours suggest that the next iPhone will be launched in September. According to 9to5Mac, the new iPhone has reached the final testing phase. Their source says “the current plan is for a September launch”.

The source doesn’t specify whether the device released in September will be a completely new handset - the iPhone 5 - or a slightly souped-up version of the iPhone 4, to be named iPhone 4S or something similar.

For the last few years, Apple has announced upgrades to its iPod range in September, in time for the holiday season. If the new iPhone is announced in September, its arrival would coincide with the launch of the new version of iOS 5, the operating system that runs iPhone, iPad and iPod touch, which was announced at WWDC.

Apple seldom details its plans in advance, which is why the pre-announcement of the contents of the WWDC keynote were such a surprise. It’s possible that this is a permanent shift in Apple’s annual schedule, with iOS being updated at WWDC to give developers time to upgrade their apps before a new iPhone in September.
