iPhone 5: Exciting New Features

Although Apple has not released any news about an iPhone 5, there is a lot of speculation about it. The iPhone 5 is anticipated to be released in the summer of 2011, coinciding with Apple’s traditional June-July annual release of new iPhone models. January 2011 is another possible release date, enabling Apple to release an earlier fix for the antenna problem that has been a problem with the iPhone 4. Although that fix could be in another iPhone 4 version rather than an iPhone 5.

Some rumored features that the iPhone 5 may contain are an improved operating system, (iOS 5), ability to access 4G networks, a faster processor (1.5 GHz), improved battery life (up to 14 hours talk time on 3G and 7 hours on 4G), and additional carriers besides AT&T (Verizon is a possible carrier soon to be iPhone compatible). Video chat, which is now only usable on Wi-Fi, should be available on the 3G and 4G networks. Face recognition and higher video resolutions will also be new features. An eight-megapixel camera is supposedly in development for the iPhone 5.

The new iPhone 5 may be radio-frequency identification (RFID) enabled. With RFID, the iPhone could function like a credit card.

iPhone 4. Verizon. It begins Feb 10th 2011

The phone that changed everything.
Coming to America’s most reliable network.

We’ve waited and waited, and now Apple and Verizon have made a million dreams come true: the iPhone is coming to Big Red. After talking up his new LTE network a bit, Verizon CEO Lowell McAdam confirmed a CDMA (non-LTE) version of the iPhone 4 is coming to Verizon Wireless next month. Talks started way back in 2008, and the phone has been in testing for a year — it sounds like they wanted to get this one right. Current Verizon customers will be able to pre-order on Feburary 3rd for the standard $200 price for the 16GB model on a two year agreement, $300 for the 32GB version — everyone else can order on February 10th (see it compared with AT&T’s iPhone 4). Just to clarify and put any wild rumors to bed, the phone is Verizon 3G (EV-DO) only, no 4G data or GSM roaming. It’s not a world phone or an AT&T + Verizon phone, it’s just a Verizon phone.

Outside of Verizon connectivity, the phone is basically unchanged, although Verizon’s CDMA network doesn’t support simultaneous voice and data as with the GSM version. It does have the new antenna design we were hearing about last week, but that’s just because CMDA requires a different configuration of antennas. (Apple says they didn’t go LTE just yet because first-gen chipsets would force unwanted design decisions, and customers want a Verizon device now.) That slight modification also equates to a slight bump in where the volume buttons and mute switch — a new case might be required. Software-wise the big innovation is five user WiFi hotspot functionality, something that’s standard on Android phones, while Apple has kept the iPhone only able to tether directly to one computer.
