Just for interest's sake...

I realize that the design/specs of the iPhone 5 is still up in the air, but please take this poll based on what you believe or expect the iPhone 5 will be like.

Feel free to comment as well!

Buying one no matter what, unless they somehow put out a crappier device or the same thing (which realistically wont happen).
 
Will buy one if it has a 4 inch screen.

Otherwise I'll just wait for the Nexus Prime...
 
Buying iPhone 5, but undecided. I have a 3GS that's dying, but still works. If I'm not impressed, I might just use the money towards an iPad and buy a new phone later.
 
I know a lot of people who really want that 4" inch screen, but my favorite part about the phone has always been how great the camera is. It's been known for a long time that the iPhone 5 will get an 8mp camera, which only makes a good thing better. I'll be there one day one if I can!

You do know that 8mp means really nothing. iPhone 4's 5mp camera is a LOT better then most of the 8mp droids out there. My ip4 blows my wifes 8mp Dinc 2 out of the water. People just look at mp and think more is better. Well, it's not. It's all BS. Its all about the optics.

With that said, Apple's 8mp camera is most likely going to be the best mobile phone camera ever. So yes, be excited. But just not because it's 8mp.
 
Pretty happy with my iPhone 4 but I'm willing to upgrade if they add a pulsing notification light (like on a sleeping MacBook Pro) to warn me on Emails, iMessages, Missed calls, SMS or 3rd party apps notifications.

I'll buy it if:
-it has a larger display (4" or so)
-it's not made of glass
-I can get a decent job over summer :)
 
For the first year since the original I'm going to pass. It's not a contract issue, since AT&T allows me two upgrades per year. That's the benefit of a large family with many lines besides the two lines I use.

My iPhone 4 is currently doing just fine as my secondary phone, while my Galaxy S II is my primary. I'm more focused on my new MBA & MBP as I follow Apple's A6 project.

I've already got a good feeling that the A6 powered iPhone 6 will be a must have for me.

It will be fun to see how the next year plays out with Tim Cook on point and Jobs silently calling the shots.

I'm undecided. I really want to try android but than again the iPhone 5 will be cool but I really like the 4.
