have you guys noticed that every other site is calling these pictures the iphone5..?? hmm that is scary.. if this is the iphone5 then i will not buy..:(:(

There are other sites?!??!? :p

Fake... It's just a photo of a white Iphone 4 and the inside of an iphone 4.

Interesting, didn't realize they made an iPhone 4 with an A5 and 1430 mAH battery. Where can I buy such a thing? :rolleyes:
 
Part of me wants Apple to fail with an upgraded 4s variant. They need to up their game and people jumping ship will force them to innovate & be cutting edge again...Either that, or they'll just take out more lawsuits!!!
Even a redesigned iphone 5 is only gonna match the competition in terms of specs, it's the design that would make it awesome...
If Samsung starts using premium materials on their phones, Apple will have a big problem.
Someone said on here about a laggy S2, well from the videos I've seen there's not a checkerboard in sight...

Competition is healthy & innovation is crucial for advancement in technology...period...

I got to compare the Iphone 4 vs the Samsung Galaxy S 4g. Same hardware specs from CPU, GPU, and RAM. But SGS4G is slow and clunky in comparison. Just remember Apple started this. Before people where using blackberries and Palm Pilots. Who's the innovator? Apple.
 
Anybody who thinks that Apple is going to put an A5 processor into the DOWNGRADED iPhone is missing a large chunk of their cerebellum. If this photo is real, then it proves that the next iPhone is going to be a waste of a release for Apple...not some kind of super-downgrade or something.

There is no way there are going to put an A5 into a cheap model and an expensive model. No way. Apple will release the iPhone 4, and I imagine it'll be capable of working with both Verizon and ATT (at least), and Apple will release either a completely new iPhone or this piece of garbage.

Stop talking about them throwing an upgrade into the downgraded cheap model. That's BULLSHIZ.

Imagine how entertaining it would be for a top apple executive to read some of the comments and theories made regarding the next iPhone. Everyone thinks they have it figured out, it is serious entertainment.

My theory? Apple will hold a keynote and unveil one or more products. At least mine has a chance of being accurate.

Don't know why you got voted negative, this makes perfect sense. If the A5 isn't one of their selling points against the iP4, then they really have nothing to show for the 4S/5.

I can only speak for my own down vote, but I did it for two reasons:

1) He called anyone that disagreed with him stupid*, which is rude
2) He acted like he knows for a fact what Apple is or is not going to do**, which is dishonest or, more probably, stupid

*"Anybody who thinks that Apple is going to put an A5 processor into the DOWNGRADED iPhone is missing a large chunk of their cerebellum"

**"There is no way..."; "No way."; "Apple will release either a completely new iPhone or this piece of garbage"
 
Iphone4

This looks like an IPhone4. Someone might just have taken a picture of a disassembled Iphone4 and Photoshopped the text on the battery and processor chip.

By the way, if this was a new iPhone it wouldn't need to be connected to a computer because it would run IOS5.0.. Apple wouldn't test their new iPhone on an old IOS that noone would be able to run, Nazi-apple never let you downgrade to older IOS's.

I dunno if anyone noticed this, as there are PAGES of comments, but does anyone else notice what looks to be the Gevey SIM in the SIM card tray? It looks like that AT&T SIM is cut to fit into the SIM card tray and there is a chip on said SIM card tray, much like the Gevey SIM Ultra.

Just so you know that screen does pop up if you tell the device you want to restore from iTunes versus iCloud. So it isn't an impossibility.
 
Why all this frenzy over a phone upgrade?

I am confused and totally baffled by the amount of frenzy a phone upgrade generates? Also, what is it with this iPhone 4S vs iPhone 5? I don't get it? Does it matter if Apple called it iPhone Susan? It is the next generation/model of the iPhone and it will either be the same, or it will be different. Other than that.... it is just guess work.

I really hope that Apple bring out a minor upgrade to the current model and call it iPhone 5. Maybe that would stop all this rhetoric ... but I doubt it.

There have been many other posts berating the constant 'a source close to Apple has confirmed that.....the iPhone 5 will be pink and have a cow-bell installed by default....'

I can fully understand, and frequently enjoy, the conversations about missing/desired features for the next iPhone. Better camera would be nice... better flash (not adobe!!) a square home button, no glass back but made of virgin-pygmy children fingernails.... that sort of thing. That all adds up and makes sense.

It also makes me chuckle when, every other day we have a '...Fred has confirmed that the iPhone 4z will be released at the Apple Peel Conference on October 35th....'

Again.... is there any evidence? Is there any confirmed details?

So, to sum up... here is what I can confirm as I am a source with very close ties to Apple (I live near someone who once went into an Apple store by mistake).

I can confirm that the next iPhone will be called Susan. It will be made of rubberized toothpicks and contain a 9.1" screen with a new pointer device made of a dried banana. It will be release 2 days before Xmas 2013 in Poland only.

Hope that helps everyone decide to wait for the next big thing...or just relax and buy what you need and just enjoy it. Sorry, that suggestion was probably a bit too out-there.

Another person who can't read. There is know way of knowing if that screen is iOS 4 or iOS 5. Could be either.

I dunno if anyone noticed this, as there are PAGES of comments, but does anyone else notice what looks to be the Gevey SIM in the SIM card tray? It looks like that AT&T SIM is cut to fit into the SIM card tray and there is a chip on said SIM card tray, much like the Gevey SIM Ultra.

Yes, it was noticed and mentioned but quickly forgotten. One thing I think everyone is missing is that this seems to be some page attempting to prove to people that the Gevey works on the iPhone 5. Only problem is that they haven't brought the screen to a full boot so I'm not sure how they think this proves anything.

Then why are you here?

I don't work for Apple, so of course I don't know for sure what's going to happen...but, if you understand how to get onto a computer, type your way into a forum and make posts, then you must have SOME kind of mental capabilities...and if you have ANY mental capabilities, you'd understand that it's completely illogical to imagine that Apple would upgrade the downgrade. It just makes ZERO sense.

If Apple did that, I'll buy each and every person on this forum a new iPhone. IN CASH.

not to be taken seriously
 
Very nice information shared by you. I was just searching this type of information and luckily I got it from your forum. I like your thread also. Keep it up.
 
It is in recovery mode... unless it can download the whole firmware and install it without computer interaction, from scratch?

I think everything will be downloadable without computer interaction. If you watch the keynote on Apple's website from WWDC in June, they're allowing us to do all things without a home computer.
