Finally the Apple Iphone 5 or "The New Iphone" will be unveiled next week. Strangely this is the most "leaked" Iphone of all and pretty much everything about the Iphone 5 is public.

Here's what we know so far.

4.0-4.1 inch 1136x640 Sharp IGZO screen (323PPI)
Samsung Exynos Quad based Apple A6 Quad Core chipset
1 GB RAM
No NFC
New 19 pin connector
iOS 6
Improved 8 megapixel Sony Exmor R camera
4G LTE connectivity
Nano Sim
Longer and Thinner body


What do you guys think ? :) To me, it seems like the Iphone 5 is going to be another disappointment. Almost no change in design, no Retina + screen, nothing that will make people say WOW. Still, let's wait for 12th before coming to any conclusion.

How many are thinking of getting this ?

Well I wish they used that much creativity on designing the phone itself. :p Can't understand why they are still using the same old design of the Iphone 4

I too was very impressed the way that Sep 12 event poster was made.

Even if they use the same design it won't be a bad idea because it still among the best designs IMO.

It's not bad no doubt(I personally LOVE the Iphone 4/4S design), but its definitely long in the tooth now quite frankly. It's not as if there just can't be any better design than the Iphone 4 design, where is the innovation that Apple talks about ???
