What can you expect in Apple's next generation iPhone, the  iPhone 5? iPhone 5 release date The iPhone 4S has been selling by the millions. But, that does not necessarily mean that there aren't millions of people who are actually quite disappointed or even irked at what the iPhone 4S has to offer. Millions were actually quite surprised that Apple would simply redesign the iPhone 4 and present it as the  iPhone 4S, as both phones pretty much had the same exact design. If not for the faster dual core A5 processor and the intelligent voice enabled assistant in Siri, the iPhone 4 and the  iPhone 4S would have pretty much been the same exact phone. Even though the iPhone 4S has been a pretty big hit in terms of sales, there are millions of  iPhone 4 users who skipped on the potential upgrade, to obviously upgrade to the next generation  iPhone instead of the Apple  iPhone 4S. Below, you will find a quick roundup of the features, news and rumors that are being generated on the next generation iPhone, which is due to be launched for sure, in 2012. iPhone 5 news

4G Speeds in the iPhone 5

3G is fast becoming obsolete, with 4G HSPA and 4G LTE networks replacing 3G networks at a very quick rate. 4G LTE speeds can produce some insane download speeds of up to 30 Mega Bits per second, which makes a 3G network look like a snail crossing the road. Considering the truth that 4G LTE has taken off quite well, in terms of reception by the public, Apple would be making a huge blunder if the next generation iPhone does not come with 4G LTE support. Steve Jobs has actually made public statements to the press that he is concerned about the use of large screens on Apple devices as they will result in a compromise on battery life. According to him, the only solution to the problem would then be to increase the capacity of the battery although that will require design modifications that are just not practical, considering that Apple makes some of the most stylish electronic products.

Another pressing problem that might prevent the next iPhone from getting a larger screen is that a bigger screen might not allow Apple to incorporate it's patented retina display resolution on a bigger screen. If the display is going to be bigger than 3.5 inches, it would naturally be difficult to pack in the same amount of pixel density, thereby severely compromising the quality of the display's resolution. Considering the fact that retina display resolution is very difficult to use on a screen that is bigger than 3.5 inches, there is actually a very good chance that the next generation iPhone will retain the same 3.5 inch screen that was featured in the previous generation  iPhones.

When could the iPhone 5 possibly be released?

This is another tricky question to be answered as Apple as a company usually never hints at release dates of its products. As a result, we can only estimate the possible release date for the next generation iPhone, the  iPhone 5. There are millions of people who are waiting to buy the next iPhone in just a few months time, sometime in June or July of 2012. However, the summer release dates has usually been reserved as iPad release dates and not iPhone launch dates. With the next generation iPad due to come out in summer of 2012, the launch of the next generation iPhone could be postponed to October of 2012.

There are even a few very interesting rumors that suggest that the iPhone 5 will be launched on October 5, 2012, the first death anniversary of the late Apple founders death, as a way to commemorate the death of the most famous tech icon in the entire world. We definitely think that October 5, 2012 is a real probability as Apple usually reserves their big gadget release for the fall (October) month, in time to allow for enough holiday season shopping.

What else can you expect to see in the iPhone 5?

Even though the vast majority of Apple iPhone lovers are anticipating a bigger screen and 4G LTE speeds, there are also some Apple  iPhone lovers who want to see a quicker processor and a brand new in the next generation  iPhone, when it is released. There have been quite a few rumors that have suggested that the iPhone 5 is going to get a ultra fast quad core processor, along with a much more improved and easy to use IOS6. But, there are also some who believe that the iPhone 5 will keep the same double core, A5  processor that has been featured in the  iPhone 4S.

Frankly, we think that a new quad core processor is unnecessary for an iPhone as there are not many applications that will require the power of a quad core cell phone processor. So, in all likelihood, the iPhone 5 will get the same A5 processor that has been used in the  iPhone 4S. However, we do think that the iPhone 5 will run on IOS6 that may possibly include many exciting additions such as Near Field Communications support, 3D camera software, facial recognition unlocking and a few other such state of the art features.
