Hitherto, we have been under the impression that Apple would be offering its next smartphone release the "5S" moniker, following the same, 'tick-tock' release cycle as demonstrated over the course of the past few generations. However, new inventory listings sourced from UK carrier / retailer Vodafone suggest the device may make the jump to "iPhone 6," which, at least in theory, would bring a stronger array of changes than the "incremental" ones we had been expecting with the iPhone 5S.
It seems that a day can't go by right now without there being some sort of story that revolves around Apple's decision to either build a larger iPhone, or its decision against it. It appears that every analyst on the planet has an opinion on the subject when, in all honesty, they're quite probably just guessing as much as everyone else. That doesn't stop them proclaiming their guesses as fact, though.
We're all playing the guessing game when it comes to Apple's next iPhone. Some people prefer to deal in the land of the reasonable, whilst others throw caution to the wind, prophesizing all manner of weird and wonderful features that will never see the light of day.
As if we've been short of future-gen iPhone concept ideas of late, German designer Eric Huismann has once again explored the idea of a transparent display in his 'iPhone 6' design. The very slick looking device is 17% thinner than the already svelte iPhone 5, packs a 10-megapixel camera with 1080p video recording, and an upgraded A7 processor. Feel free to drool over the images after the break!
The iPhone 5 is now almost six months old, and such is the speed in which the smartphone market moves these days, that talk of its successor is already well underway. While we don't have much info pertaining to the iPhone 5S, iPhone 6, or whatever it shall be named, the concept makers have been busily churning out their own ideas regarding which direction Apple should take. Designer Peter Zigich on his website has used his imagination to come up with his own vision of the next-gen Apple smartphone, and although based heavily on the revered design of the current iPhone 5, it is quite unlike any concept we have previously seen.
Everyone who takes active interest in the developments within the smartphone and consumer technology industries seem to love a good Apple related rumor. It's probably a good thing as well, considering speculation regarding the next-generation of any Apple product seems to occur almost immediately after the release of the current model. Now that the 128GB fourth-generation iPad has come to fruition and is off the conjecture radar, attention is being turned back to the iPhone and the potential for Apple to release two new models before the end of the current year.
Even though the iPhone 5 has only hit shelves a few months ago, Apple is for sure already looking a few generations ahead and getting ready to introduce the next iPhone model. We likely won’t hear a word from the Cupertino company for some long months, but it’s never too soon to start speculating.
Among other things like rumors, reports and leaks, concept designs start popping up in increased frequency on the Internet as the world approaches the announcement and release of a next iPhone. In this post, we will be discussing some of these concepts with hopes of seeing some of their features in the final design of the new iPhone.
It was of relative disappointment when the buzz circulating around the Web of Apple's purported redesigned iPhone 5 turned out to not be the massive upgrade consumers were waiting for.
According to a new report, Apple is working on implementing a new way to charge the iPhone 6, the sixth-generation iPhone. While the source hasn't specified what such charging method would involve, or if it would replace the current USB charging method, many speculate that the iPhone 6 might be charged using "non-contact based platforms".
