iPhone 5 coming out in Q3

Sign in to disble this ad
The rumor mill is churning overtime on this one. People with the iPhone4 think the rumor is crap, people with the iPhone3 don't. I love it.

You'll need to translate this page from Chinese: iPhone 5 coming out in Q3.

Its a Rumor... Apple IMO will be doing their regular release. Besides some of the people with iPhone 4's will be selling them off for an iPhone 5. More Money for Apple and Verizon, and cheaper iPhone for me! Triple Win.

Isn't the Iphone on a one year upgrade cycle (like every Apple product), and hasn't it been third quarter? How is this breaking news?

I think they are meaning that Third quarter is around the Fall season area... where we get news on Ipods. It's not a breaking story just another rumor... I never pay attention them to anyway a lot of them have proven time and again to be wrong...

Iphones are in Q3 (and before Ipods) -- I'm pretty sure that last couple of years it has been around July. What is so funny, and how is this big news?

Here's an interesting website for those who care,

Mac Buyer's Guide: Know When to Buy Your Mac, iPod or iPhone

Of course it's not a 100% exact, for example Apple doesn't seem to care about the Classic iPod or the Mac Mini anymore, and the latest Macbook Pro update was in February rather than November, but it's still a great guide.

It seems this thread is a feeble attempt at Apple bashing. I am only responding to it from that perspective, not because I care at all which month Iphone 5 is released. I'm not buying one, anyway.

It's not. That's been the suspicion since the iPhone 4, the 5 will be 4G, released summer 2011, available on AT&T immediately, Verizon in Q1 of 2012. The other rumors are that there are 3 variants of the iPhone in development - 5 will be a 4G upgrade of the 4, others will bring new features.

And I must say that while I may have a mac, ipod, and my wife has a mac, ipod and iphone, I wouldn't say I'm an apple fanboy or nything, but their product integration is fantastic, and the availability of apps is far outpacing everyone else on the market. They've positioned themselves to rule the market, and android - or apple jr., whatever - is going to continue to ride their coattails.

Wrong. There are six Apple devices in our home. Two iPods, two iPads, an iMac, and one Macbook Air.

I am far from an Apple hater or basher. I do think it is funny how the iPhone5 rumors are all over the place already, and everyone but the people who just dropped $300 on an iPhone4 are happy about it.

Anyone who is tech savvy at all is not surprised that there will be a new iphone this summer. What is the point of this thread?

Why must there always be a point to a thread? Some of the best threads at TB are pointless. Let's free our minds, TB!!
