iphone 5, is it going to be delayed (opinions please)

[JasonG]

so whats your guys opinions, will the iphone 5 debut in june like normal, or will it be held off until the fall? reason i ask is because for some stupid reason i am incredibly tempted to buy the white iphone 4, even though its just a color lol.

 

[Garz]

its will be fall. June is out of the question

 

[JasonG]

can i ask why you think it is out of the question?

Because WWDC in June this year is a iOS event. Apple releases the new OS when they release the new iPhone. Betas would have been given to developers in April if they were having a June release. You probably see iOS 5 go beta at WWDC. Also, Apple would have held off the white iPhone if they were releasing a new version in June. Can you imagine all the ticked off people who just bought a white and then bam a new one comes out two months later? The math all adds up. This is all the information that I can tell you at this time

^^^ This makes sense. Also, I believe Apple wanted to put some time between releasing the i4 on VZW and releasing the i5.

 

[JasonG]

ok thank you. i was just wondering as i can sell my iphone 4 black on ebay for around 400 and then buy the white, totalling $200 after all is said and done, and then by the time te new one comes out in the fall ill be eligible for the discount. thank you!

 

[JasonG]

yea it makes sense to me too, i just wanted to make sure before i actually did anything ya know?

 

[petersenjp]

Do you think vzw will cut unlimited data before 5? Maybe catch people waiting??

 

[JasonG]

i would say they would wait for iphone 5 to come out, and then cut them a little after the 5 is out. thats what would make sense to me anyways

 

[ckalli]

a5 processor will take a while to be jailbroken..
as is the case for the ipad2

id suggest u wait.. buy an iphone 4..
think abt the 5 only if its that much better than the 4

Either way you'll be waiting until WWDC to find out.

I'm glad it will be the fall...contract will be up!!

A little off topic but is wwdc streamed online free and legally anywhere? I know I've read updates as they occur in the past but I'd like to be able to watch it if I can.

I agree with you as well. I think them releasing the white helps buy them a little time

I dont think so. I usually just watch it later that night as they will post it on apple.com

They were rumored to be going to a tiered system this summer

 

[golfnut]

Yes..I think late this year or early 2012.
