Never. The world ends in like three weeks dude.
Crap I shouldn't have gotten Applecare+

No one knows for sure...except me!!
My inside sources have told me that the next generation iPhone is coming in....
AARRRRGGGHHHH!!!!

Pretty much this. This is what investors want to see over the next 2 years, and the board very much knows it. I would be very surprised if we didn't see the schedule I described a few posts back. The iphone is Apple's cash cow, and given the losses in market share as of late, 2 years is just not going to cut it this time around.
Again, the 6 is going to be a marked departure from previous re-designs and they are going to take a gamble with it in some form or another . The screen will definitely stay at 4", but we're going to see some major new kind of functionality not seen in other phones. In 2 years time, they won't be able to afford to play it safe anymore. They need to protect their cash cow, and the board understands this.
TL;DR: The iphone 6 is going to have to be able to cook you breakfast if it wants to have any chance of retaining its crown.
based on "history" you would see a iPhone 5s about a year from last month. But if rumors are true, that "may" be accelerated to a 6 month release. So, maybe a 6 next fall. But doubtful if we are truly students of "history."
There will most likely be an iPhone 5S next October, which will improve the internal specs of the phone, but the look is likely to be the exact same or nearly the same as the 5.
If you are waiting for a re-designed iPhone, you'll likely be waiting at least two years, and that's assuming the 6 deviates from the form factor of the 5.
Some reports saying Feb-March (6 month cycle) in order to compete with Android but IMO I say this is false
Some would say the iPad Mini or iPad 4th gen are signs Apple is falling under peer pressure but I think Apple will stick with the 12 month cycle refresh
the iPhone was introduced in September and has had great success but has been hampered by production and maybe even quality control delays. I think it would be absurd for Apple to give up on potential dollars just so they can refresh a slightly better iPhone
I don't think we are going to see a quad core in an iPhone anytime soon since the A6 is very efficient and plus the iPhone only has a 1400mah battery. A 4.5"+ screen is a no go since they just introduced the a 4" screen and apps still don't fit that. Personally I like them to switch back to glass and steel because scuffgate is real. Increase battery life, even though it isn't bad. Include finger print security. NFC mehhh...
I am a pro. Stop trying to devalue my opinion, just because you don´t like it.
If you´ve been reading the experts opinions, you will see that there is broad agreement on this subject. Apple has not been delivering groundbreaking functionality and simplicity in their latest iPhones.
Personally I think it stopped with the 3GS. After that the improvements have been minor, and in addition to that, some of them have been disappointing in quality. Such as Apple Maps, Siri, Game Center and more.
Point is. This has been Apples tactic for the last years. And it has led to a loss of interest in the iPhone. Loss of interest, means decrease in sales.
I don't know what planet you're living on, but hasn't each new iPhone gone on to sell more than the ones before it?
Sales lag a slowly building consensus.
Also, each iPhone release has it introduced to more and more markets, and more and more carriers. Comparing the raw numbers from each release doesn't make much sense.
I don't wanna be rude but you sounded like a fortune teller just my thought.I am a pro. Stop trying to devalue my opinion, just because you don´t like it.

Are you Serious? Need? NEED? well. Then I guess thats all I need to know about you..Yes biometric fingerprint would be cool. Vastly greater battery life would also be a huge leap forward.
These are two things that would represent great change for me. But I need even more.
That would be gorgeous.
There have been so many rumors on crazy patents, that I kind of expect to see them soon. I want change. Real change, like iPhone was actually about. Not just more of the same.
Like I said, Apple can not afford to keep repeating the same pattern. Yet most of you seem to think so.

Most of you seem to think that the next thing will be an S-version of the existing phone. Released at the same time next year. With only the minor and predictable improvements such as better camera, iOS update, new processor, sharper screen etc.

The company has been resting on their laurels, and we´re almost reaching the point where they have to start releasing their brand new technologies, which so far has been hidden in research and development.
Here in Norway, iPhone 5s hype has died down. And it is not the best selling phone either. The iPhone is loosing increasingly to Samsung and Android, and everybody says its because its just not exciting any more.
