What's in a name?

What do you guys think Apple is gonna call the 4th gen iPhone?

iPhone HD- No way because T-Mobile already has HD2.

iPhone 4G- Not until LTE rolls out.

iPhone G4- Maybe, but I doubt it.

What do you guys think?

iPhone A+? x)

Haha Blues003!!!! I'd love hearing Steve announce that!

iPad Mini ? iPad Nano?.....

 

[fungg3]

pretty sure it's iPhone HD

Yeah that seems to be the what all the tech sites are saying as well. @msm0511 It does not matter that TMO has the HD2, that phone is not the iPhone and not on ATT so that point is irrelevant.

@iquinn I know it's not an iPhone and not on AT&T, but Apple tends to try to set themselves as far apart as they can from other companies and products. I just don't believe Steve Jobs would go for that. Besides, all the tech sites are wrong all the time with Apple product names, features, and specs. I mean name one tech blog that knew the 3GS monicker before it was revealed.

You make some valid points, I still think that iPhone HD is what it is going to be. Not that it couldn't be something else but it won't have anything to do with the HD2. And I'm pretty sure that Apple Insider called the 3GS name but I could be wrong about that. Also everyone was sure that the iPad would be called the iSlate or something other then iPad and guess what, it's the iPad.

It could very well be iPhone HD. It just almost seems too easy. That's just my opinion though.

 

[msm0511]

With the unibody rumors I thought about iPhone Pro too. I know that was a rumor last year too.

iPhone 3Gn (not iPad)

Or, iPhone MMX (gotta love Roman Numerals)

iPhone HD sounds like an extra accessory

 

[cardfan]

Talk about confusing apps with iphone HD. Since HD is what their tagging ipad apps with.

That said, iphone HD makes sense.

 

[msm0511]

I really like the idea of dropping the "3GS" moniker, calling that iPhone. Calling the 4th gen iPhone Pro. Making the hardware unibody plastic for the iPhone, and unibody aluminum for the iPhone Pro. That would line up nicely with the MacBook line.

iPhone 3GT. Sounds like a sports car, and T follows S in the alphabet.

 

[sting7k]

iPhone, nothing else. Everyone knows what 3G is at this point, 4G isn't out. Going back to just plain iPhone. Adding the HD at the end seems kind of corny and unApple.

 

[zeagus]

HD or GT
