Perhaps they will give it an entirely random number to throw everyone off, such as the iPad 17.

;)

Or maybe they'll license the Transformers and call it the iPhone Optimus Prime. Only thing left for them to copy from the Android playbook would be for them to give away free iPhones at McDonalds.
 
I'll believe it when I see Apple executives introduce it. I'm tired of rumors (forgive the pun)...

Agreed, but when it comes to iPhones! apple will only use the same design twice. Logically the next iPhone will be a complete redesign. I just hope it comes in June/July rather than the fall like the 4S. Otherwise, loving iOS 5 on my iPhone 4, and iPad 2!
 
THE NEXT iPHONE WILL BE THINNER, LIGHTER, FASTER!!! For god's sake, they just released the newest one. I hope everyone shuts up with Iphone 6 rumors for AWHILE
 
It'll be called the iPhone 4G. Then the next one will be the 4GS. (Joking...sorta...I hope...)

I hope so too.

Don't you mean the iPhone 5 rumors? But if you want to speculate on iPhone 6 rumors then I'm up for that as well. :D
 
It's ridiculous to expect there'd be case redesign every year. Given the amount of work involved and implication on 3rd party accessories, current 2 years life cycle is a good one.
 
I just want the redesign to have the curved back again because I hate the feeling of the boxy iPhone 4.
 
So, why does everyone think they'll call it the iPhone 5, when in reality it's actually the 6th? :confused:

Maybe because Apple is consistent in their naming Steve made sure of that.

I don't think the AppleTV 3 will be called "AppleTV 1080p Stream dude box" :p

Lets just say that if nothing changes OS X 10.8, AppleTV 3, iPad 3, iPhone 5, Macbook Pro "date", Macbook Air "date" will continue to be the naming schema.

Its part of why I love Apple... consistency. :apple::cool:

So you can look dorky walking around with a phone in your ear?

I want flat flat flat. Siri has been a game changer and by the time iPhone 5 comes out, we will all be condition to wonder how the F* did we do without this before. Questioning mind will want to know. :)

I can't even imagine using the phone any other way once I can talk to it in a way that I think I am talking to a person or close enough. :D

What ever they do I want them to take their time and bring something out in 2012 that will make us drool all over again just like we know we love to do. Apple stock will be 800 after iPhone 5 comes out.
 
sigh. Part of me really hopes Apple will keep the iPhone 4 form factor for the next 5 or so revisions for the sole purpose of spiting people who keep making these claims.
 
I really hope with the next iPhone, they innovate again. Because I think Apple isn't innovating anymore.
 
Here's my story.

I begin to obsess over macrumors sites before this year's mbp. I found myself coming to this site mainly(along w/ few other main apple centric site) on daily basis. It became to a point where majority of my web browsing was these sites. I told myself, once the MBP comes out, I was going to stop. But then IPad comes out. After that here comes MBA. Now went through another several hard month of following iPhone 4s. NOW right after officially releasing iPhone 4s.. here comes the rumor for iPhone 5.

COME ON DOWN...!!!!
 
I'm getting the Nexus Prime next month and that should tide me over until the iPhone 5s comes out in the fall of 2013.
 
"Boxy" is good in some ways

I have mixed feelings about a curved back. It gives less area for the battery, and boxy designs are inherently easier to hold on to, and will be dropped less often. Both are good things as far as I am concerned.
 
They better hurry because in a few weeks I and many others will have moved to Android. Nexus Prime being the sweet entry point.


Good luck with that!!

Been there, done Android, NEVER GOING BACK!!


You will soon see why and you will be back.

But you will have lost tons of money!!

Android Phones have no Value after 3 or 4 months!!
