iPhone 5 Release Date

UPDATE: Yeah, they did 'talk iPhone', finally. What on earth happened on Oct 4? The entire world was expecting the unveiling of iPhone 5, and look, what they gave us away instead - iPhone 4S. Undoubtedly, it's a treat to hold the device in your hand (dude, it's Siri-ously mind-blowing!), and clearly, whatever was expected in iPhone 5, is present in 4S. As for iPhone 5, thanks to the introduction of iPhone 4S, we're back to Square One. Nope. Sadly, we have no official date for the release of iPhone 5, to fill you up with. In fact, there's no iPhone 5 so far.

'Let's Talk iPhone', finally. All you iPhone devotees out there, you're being addressed! Apple has announced an event scheduled for October 4 to talk about iPhone's fifth installment, which is going to be the first event ever since Mr. Steve Jobs resigned as the CEO of Apple, Inc. If all the back-fence talk is to be believed, you could have the iPhone 5 a week after the event. A gazillion rumors, hundreds of speculations, juicy gossips, and false blabs have, if not brought us to terms with the exact day of the official launching of this wonder iDevice, have still built an unbelievably high expectation from this fifth generation iPhone in our minds. Well, nothing but the 2,930,000,000 iPhone 5 results on Google underline this fact. However, one thing is certain - if you're head over heels for the design and features of iPhone 4, and iPhone 4S as of recently, its successor is sure to blow your mind. From what the recent sources speak of the iPhone 5G, you have Apple's newest operating system, iOS 5, lined up, along with 4G LTE support, iCloud, and of course, looks to kill for! Apple iPhone, after all, is the most important gadget in the world of smartphones, and if by any chance, you believe this is too much of an overstatement, then brace yourself with the features that the most awaited gadget of the year is likely to have, and then we shall talk.

'Let's Talk iPhone': What's the Buzz?

Time and again, employees' requests for vacations were denied, clearly because this period happens to hold great importance for Apple. After all, two big releases, iOS5 and iPhone 5, are lined up for the month of October, apparently. Apple recently sent invitations to the media, featuring Apple iOS icons, clock, applications, and much more. The tagline 'Let's Talk iPhone' has created immense stir within the market, as tech-veterans believe the event will definitely conclude with the official iPhone 5 release date being revealed. The present Chief Executive of Apple, Tim Cook, is going to direct the event on October 4, at 10 a.m. Pacific Time. If all goes well, you can expect iPhone 5 to be in your hands within 15 days from the event.

There's no scarcity of reasons to not buy the iPhone 5. Rumors about the release of iPhone 5 have been rife ever since iPhone 4 hit the shelves (at least it's better than iPad 3 rumors which flew thick even before iPad 2 was released). Apple iOS 5 which is definitely a part of the fifth-generation iPhone is confirmed to be released this fall, which leads us to believe that the release date of iPhone 5 is not too far. The good news among all this hullabaloo is that, while only AT&T and Verizon were carriers to the iPhone, talk is that the fifth-generation Apple phone will arrive concurrently on Sprint and T-Mobile as well. This means, those sick of At&T and Verizon can finally breathe some air of respite.

iPhone 5's release may be a mystery, and the truth is, the more you search for it, the more you're likely to get befuddled. Reason? Every source has something or the other to say about the official release date of this device. While many claimed it's going to hit the floors in early 2011 (which clearly didn't happen, and we got iPad 2 instead), some sources claim October is the month you can finally tip your hands on iPhone 5. Yes, we are indeed very close to the introduction of iPhone 5, as reports by various tech sources say that from September 30, Apple is set to begin with pre-ordering iPhone 5 handsets. This, again, is a rumor, and no official word from Apple has been received on the same. Rather than biting your nails, I'd suggest you stock up on your wallet, and bask in the new bruited features that this gadget is going to be equipped with. After all, this will make your wait all the more exciting.

What Could Be in the Wonder Gadget?

While ex-CEO Mr. Jobs never officially announced the likely features to expect in iPhone 5, you can call it leaked information, fancy rumors, or just bits from the everyday news that the world of smartphones swears by. If rumors are to be taken seriously, your next phone could be a proud owner of the following features:

8 Megapixel Camera
While Samsung Galaxy S II, which is considered to have beaten every smartphone in the league to death, has an enviable 8 megapixel camera, it'd be a shame if the fifth generation iPhone fails to offer us with the same. Clearly, that'd alone mark the victory of S II. According to the Wall Street Journal, Apple has ordered 8MP sensors from Sony, which happened to be delayed due to some reason. This construes to the fact that Apple wants to deliver supreme quality pictures (true-color 1080p with a dual-core GPU) by adding this phenomenal camera feature that only the best smartphones in the market own at the moment.

LTE Support
What's a smartphone without high-speed Internet? LTE, which is a super-fast broadband in the US, is rumored to be another feather in the iPhone 5's hat. With providing 100 Mbps downstream speed and 50 Mbps upstream speed, LTE is set to take mobile communication network to an all new level. If you're not satisfied with iPhone 4's 3G services, LTE support is reason enough for you to trash your present device, and grab iPhone 5 first thing!

Enhanced Processor and Memory
iPad 2 got better, okay? Hopefully, so will the next installment of the iPhone. The fourth generation iPhone works on a 1 GHz processor, which will be enhanced to 1.2 GHz dual-core processor. On the other hand, for entertainment hungry tech-lovers, iPhone 5G is expected to come with 1 GB RAM and 128 GB storage, along with an availability of good 64 GB of Cloud storage to store all your data and wirelessly push all of it to different iDevices.

Other likely features in iPhone 5 include 3.7 inch screen which is slightly bigger in comparison to the iPhone 4, nuclear design to get an extended battery life, video conferencing, Near Field Communication which will make your iPhone a digital wallet, HDMI output, and Wireless Syncing with iTunes.

Come soon iPhone 5, so that we see the gossips RIP. It's been such a long while since Apple devotees are waiting for this wonder device to hit the tech-block, that many have started questioning whether or not is the hype real, and that iPhone 5 is worth waiting for or not. However, one thing is for sure - Apple can announce the official launch date of iPhone 5 on the day the event is scheduled, and so, keep yourself updated with all the latest buzz. Don't freak out about your precious dollars as Apple will make sure you don't get network nightmares in iPhone 5, unlike iPhone 4 with which many owners waged a daily battle. For now, mark your territory outside the Apple device outlets. The beautiful iPhone 5 could be bailed out anytime.
