Re: Iphone 5 is coming in sept, will you buy one?

Rumors have been increasing since July, previous it was thought that iphone 5 will look exactly like iphone 4. But rumors from china have point to a new design, this maybe due to problem with iphone 4, antenna gate, fragile glass back and problem painting white panel without light leaking. Apple may have decided to change the design.

It is thicker at the top and thinner at the bottom. It is slight wider and a bit longer. It has tapered edges like ipod touch.
The screen size is increase from 3.5 inchs to 4 inchs. The glass backing is change to aluminum backing, like original iphone.
It is also slightly thinner.

The spec of iphone 5 should be similar to iphone 4, except the A5 instead of A4 processors. No 4G network.

Earlier this week, a purported case design for the iPhone 5 surfaced showing tapered edges more reminiscent of pre-iPhone 4 designs along with a possible larger screen and gesture area around the home button.

That schematic is not merely a random design drawing, however, as 9 to 5 Mac has received photos of an actual case apparently manufactured based on that design, which has reportedly been shopped around to manufacturers. The new case does appear to portend a thinner design if it is indeed for the iPhone 5, but is unable to address claims of a larger screen or gesture area due a lack of covering on the front of the device. Placement of the physical features on the purported iPhone 5 appears nearly identical to the current iPhone, with the exception of what appears to a movement of the mute switch to the opposite side. This places the switch adjacent to the device's rear camera on the right side of the device as viewed from the front, as opposed to above the volume buttons on the left side.

Accommodations for the power and volume buttons are indeed present on the purported iPhone 5 case, although difficult to see in the photos as the case utilizes only small nubs of silicone covering the buttons rather than holes allowing direct access to them. Notably, the volume controls appear more like the elongated buttons found on the current iPod touch than the round individual buttons of the iPhone 4, a change which would make sense with an iPod touch-like tapered design for the new iPhone.

Oh come on, you are missing on what a iphone can do for you. It is a beautiful phone, it is simple to use, one unit replace, ipod, computer, phone, pda, gaming unit and video/camera for some.

I like it because it is elegant and beautiful. But i have a nokia too for ovi maps. For gps location without internet connection.

when the cost of roaming internet falls, it will be a useful tool for travelling.

All in one gadgets don't do anything well. I prefer to use a proper phone, a proper camera and a proper computer.

My phone is a Motorola. One charge lasts at least 5 days. I can go for a weekend away and not have to bring a phone charger along.

I'm about to buy a Macbook Air 11" for the convenience. It has a proper keyboard which I can use to touch type. IPads don't even come close.

I take pictures with a Nikon D3. 12 Megapixels is the perfect balance between resolution and noise.

I have everything I need.

Sam, iphone 4 can also last 5 days without a charge, provide you do not use wifi, 3G, do not watch video, do not listen to songs, and do not play games, and do not run application, yeah it can work for 5 days too, if you do all those i mention, then you have to charge everyday.

I have a question, if he doesn't do all that what's the point of having an Iphone, might as well just get a regular phone. Cheaper, battery last longer and more robust

Bah, this ah beng phone been with me close to 5 years already. Still working fine. If I would to change, I'll get an android. Unfortunately, the apps for Androids are still sub-par compared with Itunes.

For you, it is time to step onto the 21 century. Get the iphone 5.
