"4g network when it come out. "
4G network, that's great..except Apple is waiting on the hybrid chips that won't compromise the design they have for their phone..they just said this about a week ago..they said 2012 would be the year those chips come..
you have some horrible friends..

89% of people who "know / have" the iPhone 5: OMG. My friend's got an iPhone 5 as well. According to him, it has 4G (look in top corner), 4inch screen, 1080 video recording, 8mp camera, A5 CPU (1.2Ghz!), better GPU (same one as iPad 2), 500fps 720p vr for playback in slow-mo and, finally, iOS 5 is amazing (this beta version can dual boot between iOS 4 and iOS5. The only difference he can see with the iOS4 on the iPhone 5 is the new text font, but it's a bit inconsistent). I'll post some more pics and info about iOS 5 later.
Let my tell you something:
This photo (as you probable guessed) is fake;
Helpful tips:
1) Tell someone that their friend has the iPhone 5 = probably fake;
2) Post a photo of the iPhone 5, like the one bellow = debatable, dependent on photo; (10% have photos as proof)
3) Post a video of the iPhone 5 = dependent on video, but (if good) then probably real. (1% have video as proof)
You've done step 1. Therefore, it is, in all likelihood, fake.
Don't post "I have the iPhone 5" unless you have a photo, which isn't fake (like my quick photoshop - this also proves how easy it is to fake something) or a video, because you'll get -33, embarrassed and ownified.

So according to my friend, he got the iPhone 5 and seems serious about it. He does has friends in China and I am currently waiting on pictures since he lives somewhere else. He defiantly got a new phone and here's what he had to say about it so far... "Buttons around screen like shortcuts to email and all that, snap dragon 3 processor, 4g network when it come out. The home button is part of the screen now so the screen is bigger 1080p camera and video I forgot what else..." Idk, this just interested me. I am not saying that it is real but i'll provide pictures when I get them.
Your "friend" bent you over and took you for a female dog.
I found some crabs on the beach that had little headsets on, I think I found the new iCrabs! You believe me right?
all we need to see in these kind of posts is that the OP is a newbie and has a 'friend' with this or that.
we can be certain that a: newbie is 12 years old and b: newbie has no friends.

Okay going to make one serious post here:
Shortcuts to email and whatnot indicate that this is one of the many many many Chinese phones with shortcut buttons right under the touchscreen.
Note the shortcut buttons under the touchscreen and above the physical buttons.
Putting those shortcut buttons was really common back in 07/08 on fake Chinese phones (HiPhone, CiPhone, etc) but they seem to have stopped in the newer better clones. Doesn't even sound like your friend got a decent fake.
