Today there was a report by an analyst in Taiwan that stands up that the future iPhone 5 will have an A5 chip like the iPad 2, an 8 megapixel camera and will be available starting from October 2011. Last year Apple chose to implement the A4 chip from the iPad 2 in the iPhone 4 and iPod Touch 4G but with small changes, i.e. the processor was clocked at 1Ghz speed but the terminals had double the amount of RAM. I expect that this year Apple will do something similar to the iPhone 5, that is, a slightly underclocked A5 chip but with 768/1GB RAM. An 8 megapixel camera capable of filming HD in 1080p format would be the next logical step that Apple must take considering that every new iPhone has had a better camera.
The second part of the rumor focuses on the autumn launch of the iPhone 5 terminal and has in the foreground the disaster in Japan that would have affected Apple's partners and would have forced the company to take the decision to postpone the launch. The iPhone 5 terminal would be presented at the fall conference, when it would be launched in both the GSM and CDMA versions. Apple will keep you WWDC 2011 between June 6 - 10, 2011 and the hope is that then iOS 5, Mac OS X Lion and the new iPhone 5 will be presented. Everyone is going with the idea of a launch in the fall, but I'm trying to stay in position hoping that Apple will present and releases the iPhone 5 in the summer as it does year after year.
