iPhone 5 announced?


Almost June 2012. It is that time again or WWDC and the Apple event is already surrounded by rumors of the new iPhone being announced. What can we see from Apple this time around? iPhone 5 or is it iPhone 6? New line of iMacs with retina display? Let the rumor mill power up, and light our fires.

June, Apples grand daddy event called WWDC is upon us here soon, and already the WSJ and Washington Post are saying that the iPhone 5 will have a 4" screen. Apple not being known for changing their aesthetic over the past 5 iPhone's' screen size, should really start thinking about possibly going to a bigger screen. Android devices have pushed these boundaries of 4, 4.3, 4.5, 4.7, 5 inch screens with huge fanfare. Myself included, love having a bigger screen, and couldn't imagine going back to Apples 3.5" screen.

For Apple to gain back some of the people they have lost to Android, they need to make the iPhone 5 (or 6). I cant say what an Apple 4" screen would do for me, but I'm sure it would be impressive. Apple's polished (dull) UI is eye candy for the soul, but lacks creativity. Sure you can jailbreak the device (maybe), but when is enough actually enough? Apple needs to come to the table soon with this next device being well, "WOW!" iPhone 5 or 6 will happen regardless, but the look is as always, an Apple secret. Rest assured, Apple is a very secretive company and we will not know what it looks like until it is announced, if it is announced. WWDC last year didn't do anything impressive in ways of the next iPhone, and I dont see this year being much of the same.

Final prediction, there isn't going to be an announcement yet for a new iPhone. iOS 6 will be announced for sure, but I feel the iPhone 5 (6) rumors are just the usual Riff Raff. I've been spot on for the last few years, as my buddy and I usually partake in the keynotes. In my honest opinion, Apple Will have to step up the game before the fanboyisms start to wear off and they get sick of looking at the same crap for the last few years.
