Another photo purporting to show Apple’s iPhone 5 has appeared and seems to show a thinner mobile, with a slimmer bezel and rounded edges. According to the poster, these photos were taken inside a French carrier’s offices and these appear more genuine than anything we’ve seen in the past and take into account all the rumors we’ve heard about slightly larger display, more rounded edges and a thinner body while still maintaining the design aesthetics of its predecessor, the iPhone 4. This is a nice looking design and there is currently no word yet from Apple when the iPhone 5 will be launched…………
The blurry spy shot, which was discovered from a thread on MacRumors Forums, shows a very slim iPhone-like device which the uploader claims to be the hotly anticipated iPhone 5. The photograph was reportedly taken yesterday in the office of French wireless carrier. It has the overall look of the iPhone 4 but is slimmer and there is a hint of curviness at the edges which falls well in line with the rumors of the next-generation iPhone having a thinner profile with a tapered design. Rumors surrounding the next-generation iPhone 5 are heating up these days. The initial reports from Wall Street analysts weren’t very believable, but in recent times, a lot of well-sourced reports have come up which strongly suggest that the iPhone 5 will receive a launch date somewhere in September. The September release date is supported by many different reports; reports such as the senior executive at Swisscom pointing to a September/October release date, AT&T notifying its employees for a new product launch, iPhone 3GS’ tightened supply and Apple increasing staffing across retail Apple Stores in US and UK just to name a few. As for the next generation iPhone’s design, we’ve heard about the reportedly leaked case design schematics which were later supported by actual cases from China. There are also reports of Apple releasing not one, but two new iPhones this year: a lower-end iPhone 4S and a higher-end iPhone 5. This rumor, from what we can tell, stems from the statement of Apple COO Tim Cook who stated that Apple does not want the iPhone to be a thing for the rich and wealthy and that they intend to target the lower-end of the market.
