No new design for Iphone 5 (aka iPhone 4S)

**Edharv1** · 09-12-2011, 12:47 PM

According to a report from macrumors we won't be getting a new design for iphone 5. It will take on the same form factor as the iphone 4 with upgraded internals.

check it out...

Any truth to this rumor?

Thoughts?

It's a rumor just like all the others. Until we receive concrete info from Apple (hopefully sooner than later) just take it with a grain of salt and enjoy what you have.

Still speculation/rumor, until confirmed by Apple at the announcement.

I can't wait till Apple finally announces the dang iPhone so all these rumors will stop.

Agreed. Should be in the next few weeks.

Wait, what? You and I actually agree on something, Red?

Who'd a thunk it! LOL.

This is yet another pointless thread with zero credibility.

Have they actually said there is going to be one at all?

**ChaosShadow** · 09-12-2011, 01:40 PM

I totally agree and think that before everyone starts to jump the gun and cry about the iP5 not being a true update to its predecessor... let's just sit back, enjoy the popcorn & soda during the previews and then we can criticize once the feature presentation comes.

An announcement? They have one every year. This one won't be any different. People just have to Relax and wait.

Well they also usually release the iPhone in july and that didn't happen. So nothing can be based off of what they did before.

The fact that Apple didn't release the iPhone on schedule as they have done in the past has zero to do with them holding an announcement. There will be an announcement from Apple in regards to the new iPhone soon enough.

Who says?

Why do they need a new iPhone when ip4 is still top of the ratings?

It's all speculation, nobody on here knows anything, no matter how well informed they claim they are!

- I know nothing about a announcement but in my opinion there will be one.

- They really don't but perhaps the reason for a slight spec bump in the new device is because they know they don't need a totally redesigned device - at least not yet. Similar to the 3G to 3GS jump.

- Do you know everyone on this forum?

Whether or not there is a new iPhone coming out shortly isn't even a question. Period. Also this guy right here does know and has already given TiPb more than enough tangible evidence for us to believe him.

Oh don't point at me. I'll have to defend myself all over again.

I'll just get this out of the way and I'm not going to debate it anymore with anyone. The next iPhone will not be totally redesigned nor will it have a larger screen. People need to except that and live with it. I don't like it myself. Now maybe and that is a very large maybe there is another phone that I'm not aware of that Apple has kept hidden away. I just highly doubt it.

I know it's all rumours, speculation and poking in the dark.

You're too modest, lol.

Unfortunately I think you are right. Even I was hoping for a larger screen and a thinner profile, however, I'm not as disappointed anymore after my trial with the Samsung Infuse 4G. The screen on that beast was too large and so was the phone, for me. I think the iPhone 4 was and still is the perfect size for a smartphone.

No one is poking in the dark. There will be a new iPhone and an announcement to go with it. People just need to chill out and learn to wait....

Damn dude relax nobody said there wouldn't be a new iphone. Idk why you are getting so uptight when people speculate about the smallest things. Maybe apple has 2 development groups working on two iphones because it seems strange these case manufacturers would waste millions of dollars making cases if in fact the iphone is staying same size as the current iphone. And if people want to say well thats for the new ipod touch well think why would apple increase the screen size for that but not the iphone? That is going to lead to just as much fragmentation for devs as increasing the screen size on the iphone would. Just saying.

Who says those cases are even for an Apple product?

First of all, I am not a "dude", so save that kind of talk for the streets where it belongs. Secondly, I am not even going to defend my posts with you. I quoted what I was replying to clarity. Thirdly, this is the second time you have told me to relax. You don't know me nor my emotional state while posting on here. Actually, I'm sitting here with my wine cooler and couldn't be more relaxed.
