One would have least imagined about the grand opening that iPhone 4 had received at the time of its inauguration. The whole planet seemed to be gunning for it at that moment. However, something is not right with the iconic phone as early launch of its next version, iPhone 5, is being speculated.
A couple of upgrades were done in this phone as compared to its earlier versions. The 5 mega pixel camera was remarkably better than that in third generation of this series. The whole bunch of applications present in it enabled its owners to perform a slew of tasks in one go. It was surely a winner, but Apple was made to rethink about it due to numerous problems.
Gossip columns and technology websites are abuzz with the prospects of an early release of the iphone 5. January 2011 is being speculated as the date for its release, much earlier than the scheduled launch in June or July. Quite a number of current owners are unhappy about the much hyped fourth version. Apple is reported to be anxious for the love that its customers lost with it and the growing competition.
It used to release new product at the time of June or July. This strategy had worked very well as the product used to settle down in a year. When people would complain about any feature in it, the company would release a better one with improved features. This time, however, it would unleash the next version too soon and the move is being considered a desperate one.
It can ill afford to carry on with the faulty signal of the current feature. As soon as the iPhone 4 had hit the shelves, its owners reported calls getting lost midway. The photographs taken with the camera on its rear were far from being perfect. So was its glass shield which tends to break even on slightest fall. It is being hoped that the new product will at least improve on these problems while introducing some new features.
It is being expected that the new product will have a bigger screen of around 3.7 inches. Since 4G connectivity is just around the corner, it is expected to have this feature. There is a hope that Near Field Technology (NFC) will be incorporated into it as well. This technology will enable it for use as a virtual credit or debit card.
As the trend goes, a new operating system will accompany the iPhone 5. It would be great if Apple provides support for additional carriers apart from ATT. Fans of iPhone series are holding their breath on the prospects of what is going to be in and out of its next edition.
