iPhone 5 Release Date: Buzz High as Fans Await Apple Event
The anticipation regarding Apple’s release of a new iPhone is hitting an all-time high, as Apple fanatics eagerly await Tuesday's "Let's Talk iPhone" event.
The extremely anticipated event will take place at Apple’s headquarters. The event’s invite did not specify whether Apple would be releasing a new phone or not, but it did cause speculation that the company might be showcasing its new next-generation phone.
It is expected that Apple’s CEO Tim Cook will officially announce the release of the new phone at “Let’s Talk iPhone” but other rumors have also spread about the possibility that Apple will release two new phones.
The rumor speculates that the newly released phones would be an iPhone 4S along with the iPhone 5. The iPhone 4S would be a cheaper version of the iPhone 4 for those consumers that want an iPhone but would need one that is more budget friendly.
Rumors about a new iPhone have been swirling for weeks and last week it was rumored that a new iPhone was actually leaked into Apple inventory.
The rumor spread from Japanese technology websites that reported that a head of China Unicom discussed in a speech that the iPhone 5 would offer faster Internet using HSPA+.
There has been much anticipation about what added gadgets and features a new iPhone would have.
The Daily Mail reported that a new iPhone could possibly have an eight mexgapixel camera, 1 Gb of RAM, and a speech-to-text functionality.
Other reports suggest that the new phone would have a larger screen size and would be a “world phone,” meaning that it would feature a SIM card slot so that users could insert their SIM cards from different countries.
If the phone is actually released and what features it will contain, remains to be seen as Apple fanatics must wait another day to find out exactly what Apple has in store for them.
