Ever since the iPhone was launched on the Verizon network, users are already thinking about the next substantial release of the iPhone 5. It seems that everyday you will find different rumors circulating about what might be included in this latest edition. From the sensible to the absurd, I will discuss each function that you could find when the iPhone 5 is released later this year.
Despite any official reports, iPhone 5 pictures are floating around displaying some of the new features that might be available on the new version. From the realistic to the absurd, each potential update will be discussed further so you can make a decision on whether you need the newest model or simply want to get a great deal on an older iPhone.
The design itself is most likely to stay the same with minor aesthetic changes, however there are rumors that the new model may look similar to the iPad with rounded edges and a metallic backplate. This also might allow for a thinner, more ergonomic device.
The one feature that is a certainty is a white model, in addition to the original black iPhone. Apple has introduced a white model for the iPhone 4, so it should come as no surprise that the iPhone 5 will come in two varieties as well.
Given the added processing capabilities of smartphones, the iPhone 5 should contain an HDMI port so that you can connect to other high-definition devices and televisions. Whether you want to show a friend a YouTube video or home photos, it is a must-have feature in this day and age.
Several consumers have asked for a physical keyboard which slides out, but this is one thing that I do not expect to come to fruition when the official release date is announced. The iPhone was the first smartphone that used a virtual touchscreen keyboard and unless there are serious accessibility issues I do not anticipate any changes on the iPhone 5.
While Apple has a large consumer base, the iPhone 5 could help to expand its market by including a model that does not come with internal storage. This would allow them to reduce the price and have the user buy an external memory card in order to store more data. Considering that the price of disk space gets lower every single day, it would be wise for Apple to leave this up to the consumer so that they can focus on marketing to a broader range of people.
The most significant truth buyers want to know is when will the ultra-modern iPhone ultimately be for sale. While some people were planning on a summertime release, it appears that the iPhone 5 will ultimately be introduced in the autumn of 2011. I would foresee genuine iPhone 5 pictures to be leaked sometime in the next month or two to get buyers enthusiastic about precisely what is in the near future.
