iPhone 5 I predict a problem.

iOS 5 is not being rushed. It has been in beta for over 3 months now, and is still not in GM. This is quite a longer period than iOS 4 was even in beta. Also, the shape you are referring to, I am assuming is the tear drop shape. It isn't even confirmed that the iPhone will be designed this way. I actually highly doubt it, but I could be wrong. There were rumors of a heating issue with the A5 processor, but all just rumor.

You really can't predict what problems the next iPhone will have until it is at least announced.

 

iOS 5- They have plenty of time to polish the GM; it even works well already.

Battery- Based on the new shape? Nothing has been released yet. We know nothing of the shape. Also a tapered battery would be TERRIBLE for a mobile device. It'll probably end up looking like a thicker iPad 2, IMO

Heat - worked well with the iPad, even though using much beefier components and a much thinner case. Also with every generation of iPhones and iPod touches getting progressively faster components.

 

This is the 2nd thread where a person thinks there's an issue. Can't you keep it all in one thread??

Nothing is delayed as Apple hasn't announced anything yet. It's only delayed from when WE thought it would release.

----------

The iPad case is significantly large than the iPhone casing.

 

Well, I disagree with you on all counts.

First of all, antenna gate wasn't an issue, it was blown out of proportion by the media.

Who cares if they release an update 10 days after it's released?

When was battery ever a problem for the iPhone? It provides amazing usage that lasts for hours.

And heat isn't that big of a problem with the iPhone 4, I don't think it'll be a problem with the 5.

 

I was giving an example of going from a thick device to a much thinner device with much faster specs had little to no effect on heat.

 

First, you worry too much

Second, if you still don't feel comfortable then you don't really need to purchase the iphone 5 once publish, you can wait for second or third batch

Last, I don't think apple is rushing on the development as well as the production.

 

And what, pray tell, are any of these points based on?

I think there might be a problem with the iPhone 5 in that it will spontaneously combust when you try make a call and brose the web at the same time.

See what I did there?

 

1. No way.
2. Wrong.
3. Nope.

Just have some patience.

 

wow, you have too much time and an overactive imagination! Get out and enjoy life. Also ANOTHER thread saying the same thing? madness! the other one is even on the first page of this board!! Even if your theories are right, how would anyone ever find out, as if it was (VERY UNLIKELY) delayed for any of your reasons, we'd never know.

THere's no delay. Apple have chosen a later release date than usual, we got wind of this back in January/February time. Back then everyone was saying that it was logical to move the iPhone launch to the same time as the new iPods.

People are starting to go crazy imagining problems that don't exist. If Apple had said that they were going to release it in the Summer at WWDC like usual then delayed it, then people might actually have a point, but they didn't.

Aligning the iPhone launch with the iPods makes sense as they're mostly the same features on each device, so no duplicating presentations or the thunder being stolen. They all run the same iOS. They obviously picked this year as it tied in well with them setting up iCloud, giving them much more time to perfect it rather than delay it, look at Game Center, that obviously had problesm and got pushed to 4.1 rather than being included in 4.0.

I would not be surprised if they didn't change the iPad to later in the year at some point in the next 2 years.

 

Apple knows what they are doing. Whether it be better or worse than the 4 it will still be a very good phone.

And iOS 5 is great IMO. It still has a few bugs but it's much easier to navigate and use than it was.

 

"I want to post a bunch of guesses I am pulling out of my ass so I can pretend to be a genius if any of it happens to be right"

Got it.

 

If it looks like that I'm not buying.

 

A flying iPhone? Who in their right mind wouldn't want such a thing?!

 

Chill bro. The iPhone 5 will come out when it's supposed to.

 

I would be very surprised if they let a battery or antennae issue plague this phone. Their last one had antennae issues and any 4g phone has battery issues. That will be key to hold over android
