Now that 4G is on iPad, can we count on iPhone having it?

[Collin789]

Obviously we'll eventually have it, but what about in the next iPhone?

The only reason that I can think of is that the battery may not be suitable to last long enough.
Besides the battery, I think this at least tells us that Apple is willing to use 4G now. Some were saying the coverage wasn't large enough and that might have been why Apple was waiting. I think that can be cancelled out now...

Any thoughts?

Why would they keep it at 3G?

GPRS is not 3G its 2G I was being sarcastic...

oh I thought GSM could use GPSR as 3G. Next time use the sarcastic eyes. cheers.

Agreed, I can't imagine the next iPhone not having 4G.

 

[F123D]

And AT$T still better offer that 5GB data before being throttled "unlimited" plan.

 

[nfl46]

Yes. Now, give us our BIGGER screen!

 

[-aggie-]

No, it’s not even that fast.

I think the next one will have 4G, based on the iPad now having it. However, it’s not something I really care about. I’m only on 3G for short periods of time, since wi-fi is readily available for me.

 

[sarcosis]

Yes. Now, give us our BIGGER screen!

Second that! I'd love a 4" screen. Anything larger is too much of a pain. Also, Yes on the LTE. iPad has it, the iPhone will have it.

 

[OneMike]

4G will be cool

 

[bmwhd]

OK. All you LTE scoffers that gave me such hell when I called it on the iPad last November, step forward to explain why it can't be in the next iPhone

 

[aztooh]

What are you guys talking about, the 4S has it!

 

[DerekRod]

oh I thought GSM could use GPSR as 3G. Next time use the sarcastic eyes. cheers.

LOL you got it no GSM can use GPRS as 2.5 G aka EDGE

 

[Collin789]

Personally, I would be very shocked to see the next iPhone not having 4G.

 

[Pez555]

4G and 4 inch screen please Apple!!

The new iPhone is rumored to be an all new design. I would think Apple would put a larger battery among other features with a new design.

What do you mean? I have it now! I'm guessing this is a solar flare related screwy thing with AT&T here in Detroit, but my non-jailbroken (never has been) iPhone 4s has decided to start telling me it has 4G today, lol!

After the iOS update my iPhone 4s started to display the 4G at the top too... i am in southern CT by the way

With iOS 5.1 the 4S on At&t is suppose to show the 4G indicator because At&t thinks HSPA+ is 4G speeds.

My iPhone 4S displayed 4G mode today after downloading new iOS for the first time ever.

 

[lordofthereef]

IMO you can't count on a thing unless Apple announces it, or we get a lost prototype make it into public hands.

 

[sviato]

I really hope it has LTE and a 4" screen, otherwise I'll likely go with something different
