iPhone 5 Specs: Thinner, Larger 3.7-Inch Screen, Home Button With Gesture Area & More

I think 3.7" screen at the same 960x720 resolution is not right. The retina screen was only introduced in the iPhone 4 last year and is still a very excellent display.The iPhone 3.5" 480x360 screen was good for 3 years models.I just can't see it happening to develop and manufacture a new size screen so soon.It would be extremely costly and Apple isn't in this industry to throw away money like others.Remember, Apple innovates and charges a premium and makes billions still.Yet others make Androids that are practically given away to gain marketshare.

Whatever you call it, iPhone 4S/iPhone 5 will still be a huge hit to consumers. I just hope that the location tracking will never be an issue again once this 5th generation device comes out. With the use of A5 chip, this phone will be everyone’s first choice when buying their next handheld device, especially for gamers.

they should make 2 model of the new iphone one is the new version with new design that suck, other is with the iphone 4 design with all the new feature and speed and everything....let see which one gonna sell more...
-
The thiner the more fragile.... Is that a technique so that it will be more breakable so people have to spend more cash to replace it?
-
Changing the screen size doesn't require any work on the developer part if the resolution remains the same. Please read article. I agree it looks ugly.
-
The home button looks like that of the Samsung Galaxy S/Epic.
-
The iPhone 4 has been such a big hit I believe Apple will stay with the current iPhone 4 form factor for 1 more year similar to the 3G / 3GS upgrades with all the improvements coming "under the hood".

i would upload two concepts of i5 if i could :)
-
-
concept 2 - 6x4 icon screen + dock :P
-

ive given up with apple, they make solid hardware but software is an insult. Ive had a dell streak for about 6 months and cannot find a single reaon to part with. its android that will eventually hold the market share, not apple, people are just blinded by nice graphics and a vast range of limiting apps. move out of the way ios, nudge your way in android.

Agreed. Sadly image is more important than being smart. Kinda strange to say that we are in a recession and that we are spending less. From the numbers that Apple have sold, I think not. Perhaps 5 yrs from now we will look back and say wow what was I thinking, but who knows. Until some celebrity/news media think that a new gadget is cool or hip then then that will be the new fad... anyways back to the subject. The thickness and teardrop shape look slippery. Custom cases will look interesting and the edge to edge screen will be a problem for custom case. I don't think battery will be an issue since there is new and lighter type. Polymer? perhaps.
-
That would be absolutely sickkkkk. I wonder how the gestures would function if it came out with the gesture bar on the side?Gizmodo should walk through some random bars, see if they can't find a prototype ;)
-
Good, does that mean you'll stop wasting your time posting here? That is the second comment I've seen you make in back to back days mentioning the Optimus and stating that the iPhone 5 is outdated. The iPhone 5 hasn't even been officially announced yet and has no official specs. Why are you saying anything about iPhone 7. Aren't you forgetting 6? Have fun with your Optimus. Maybe it can teach you to count past 5.

if this is iPhone 5 then i am happy with iPhone 4. This design isnt impressive.
-
First of all, this picture is just a mock-up. The real iphone, when released will look different. Second, for being an "iphone" site, there seems to be a lot of anti-apple visiting and posting. Trolls?Who cares if the next iphone has LTE or whatever else they've cooked up. Pick something that rocks your boat and let the rest of us do the same.The bottom line is; LTE is not ready for prime time. Sure, the thousands of current LTE users are getting nice speeds but when millions of users jump on (yes, if apple sold an LTE phone, millions will jump on) then that so-called 4g speed will slow to a crawl. Ever heard of bottle-neck? When LTE is ready for the iphone, we'll see an iphone that supports LTE. Period.

Teardrop design is ugly , the screen looks ugly because its does go from corner to corner, iPhone 4 was the BEST phone that apple has made & im sticking to my iPhone 4 if thats how it really looks, Apple is smart and im questioning if they would really do this. ANYWAY They need to worry about making things with more battery power instead of sliming things down, i mean steve jobs is sliming down every day that passes due to his sickness. :/ We love you steve but please make iPhone 5 a better phone than the iPhone 4, Make it like a iPhone 4Gs :D

I know that many people do buy Apple products for the logo, but I am not one of them. When I switched from MetroPCS to AT&T, the iPhone 3gs was the best phone for my needs, after owning the iPod. I got the iPhone 4 for it's seamless compatibility with the software I had already purchased. Now that Android has become increasingly popular and a lot of the problems have been worked out, I have been considering switching to one in the future. I have my iPad, which I love for what it does (even without Flash), so I don't risk loosing any money I spent on apps. Not everyone buys something for the logo. Some of us are actually happy with the product and do research first based on our needs.

Unless Apple comes out with at least a 4" screen and 4g LTE, there is not much reason to upgrade from my iP4.
-
Agreed!!!!!
-
If this is true, I'll be one of the many people sticking with their iPhone 4.

who cares about 4g people seriously do u want your battery to drain fast a 2g phone has about 14 hours and 3g has 7 ours and whats wrong with 3g pandora works netflix works so why 4g then whats wrong with wifi learn how to take people wifi.and google please stop advertising android on the iphone blog and google wheres cydia?whers netflix ?whers the othere 400,000 apps cants find my bank app yet?with cydia i could do more then you can imagine cuz im not in jail i could port android on an iphone and have freaking android and with cydia included its an extra store which is another 200,000 tweaks and apps not including that u can add a source and have another store if i want the android theme i download it on cydia so stop comparing android to apple already cuz apple was first and there in a lead because of that and for the iphone 5 will its worth it cuz of the A5 chip well thats going to make video game experience way better its called new technology something apple been doing lately make stupid phone to smart phone making the first tablet and now apple working on the first smart tv and maybe a smart car in the future and the only people that could compete with apple who has the potential is Microsoft because they dont copy and paste look Google adding a flip clock and widgets to cover law suits to make it appear different Microsoft is doing it from scratch they are also inventors and just like it is in the pc world either u buy a mac or windows the computer industry took over the phone industry and they can probably take over anything now and some people want a bigger screen and some want small so apple making big cuz there already small and now they added gesture and i know apple will add more features and create something new to iphone 5 but its still in the making so relax and be patient and i hope they add a kickstand and yes thinner means more fragile but the iphone is a stronger phone period i know cuz i drop all the time and im pretty sure this one will not be much differnt and if thats your concern buy a hard case silly or put insurance on it or learn how to fix stuff yourself go on youtube so you learn how to replace things on your phone or pay me to fix it and for the button size who cares really its easier to find and press in the dark lol and i know why people tell lies because nobody likes to see a companie on top for so long will sorry apple help technology advance and now your mad that everyone talk about apple so much and it gets u so angry but if it wasn't for them u still be on that blackberry and if you want android to win call up the iphone development team,geo hot,greenpoison dam even microsoft has somebody

Stuff u. I'm with sean

It's obvious that he doesn't mention 6 because he is trying to imply that even iPhone 6 is going to be outdated with Android phones today. He mentions 7 as to say that maybe that will actually be worthwhile. Idiot, think about what you are reading before you insult others.
-
Funny how you talk about inventors.. You mentioned a "new" gesture area, well that has been around since the Palm Pre you fucking idiot. And Apple isn't making the first smart tv, Google ALREADY made it. Also, just because Apple started first doesn't mean it is ahead of Android. You are just another gormless idiot who doesn't know what the heck your talking about.
-
your just an andriod fanboy who so dumb cuz there on the wrong blog this is an iphone blog taking about phones not tvs u moron and speaking of smart tvs u moron The big screen will merely mirror what's on the iPad through AirPlay will just provide an os similiar to an iPad with live tv u fucking dickhead and your Palm Pre is just as dumb as you cuz its a stupid phone just like you
