iPhone 5 Guides report: Everything clear for the iPhone 5 release!

 This week Apple was the center of all the happening in the IT world! We started with very good news about the iPhone 5 release date which should be set for the 21st of September or somewhere around this date. Another good information is that the iPad Mini might be coming along with the iPhone 5 and will either come late September or somewhere in October. Of course this is all an expensive venture for Apple, and the 1 billion dollars that Samsung will have to pay them will certainly help! Yes, that's right - Apple won the court trial against Samsung in the USA. The Korean giant was fined roughly $1,051,850,000! 

 Of course Apple won't stop there, they will try to convince the court to ban all of the Samsung products that are using their patents. This is a lot of phones and most of them are cheaper lower-end devices. The Samsung Galaxy S3 isn't among them so the Apple iPhone 5 will still have to be pretty impressive to compete with Samsung.

 

 However, I cannot stop and wonder if this is a bad thing for the users. If Samsung is out of the competition in the USA and HTC and LG already took a heavy punch in their share of the USA market, then that means Apple has no real competition on the USA mobile phone market. Sure, we love Apple and are happy for our favorite brand, but this lack of competition will equal lack of innovation. We don't need a new iPhone or other iDevice each year, but when we do get one it should be something great and innovative. We don't just want a bigger processor and a larger screen! We want innovation and something brand new from the iPhone 5 so let's hope Apple will step up its game and rally impress us!

iPhone 5 Release Date - 21st of September!

 Let's take a brake from all the leaked photos and artistic render images of the Apple iPhone 5 and focus more on its release date. As you may imagine we have no official news from Apple HQ but we do have some nice inside news on the matter at hand. This report i based on a series of articles from TechChrunch and other tech blogs. The idea that September the 21st will be the official release date is based on the fact that Verizon, a popular retailer for the iPhones, refused to give their employees a day off in this time period. Apparently this is because the iPhone 5 is really coming out at the end of September and they will need their company's full potential to carry it all off.

 The popular blog BGR also reported this and also presented a report that a similar situation was going on in AT&T. The blog iMore also claims this is true and that September the 21st will really be the release date of the device. They also claim that they heard new from Apple that an official iPhone 5 event will be held on the 12th of September. These news couldn't have arrived at a better time as it was about time Apple responded to Samsung's rising popularity and they can steal the Galaxy Note 2's spotlight The Note 2 will be shown off on the 29th of August and will be available somewhere in September which means Apple's timing is perfect if this rumor presents itself to be accurate.

 Apple's iGadgets don't travel alone. So what can we expect to see along with the new iPhone 5? Well, I guess the obvious would be the rumored 7.85 inch iPad Mini device! Apart from this we can also expect a whole array of official gadgets, docs, cases and apps that go great with the new devices. 

 Until then you can browse through some of the interesting 3D renders and see what the iPhone 5 might look like!

Apple iPhone 5 leaked photos of new parts

 Just another casual day for the Apple fans as we have more leaked photos of the latest iPhone 5 device. This isn't an official leak but the result of some brilliant engineering by the guys from iResQ who got a hold of some of the iPhone 5 parts and are trying to assemble the device on their own to at least give us a solid hint on what to expect. The parts of the iPhone 5 will be shown in the picture next to the iPhone 4S for comparison purposes. Apart from throwing in the iPhone 5 parts the guys working on the project were able to fit the charging & dock port as well as a headphone jack into the port.  

 In these iPhone 5 pictures you will the "iPhone 5" on the left, while the iPhone 4S sits next to it for comparison. You can see just how larger the screen is supposed to be in comparison to the previous models. Let us know in the comments if you think that such a size is acceptable.

 As for the release date of the iPhone 5, Apple still remains mysterious and is holding back on their press releases. Their legal lawsuit with Samsung is nearing an end soon so we can expect them to get back on track on producing their devices. The rumored iPad Mini which will be a 7.85 inch tablet is also expected to come out soon. As for the release date of the iPhone 5 I have so far heard the following rumors about the date:

• 12th of September
 
• 21st of September


• 5th of October 

 All rumors speculate we will be seeing the iPhone 5 soon, let us hope this is true!

iPhone 5 images - amazing concept art and 3D models!

 Are you ready for some more iPhone 5 photos, models and concepts? I really love it when a group of talented artists creates a series of 3D renders and models based on rumors and their own speculations. This type of activity allows us all to bring to life the vision inside our heads. Sometimes it’s for the best and other times we may not like what we see. Today we have two (2) of the Apple iPhone 5 photos which are 3D render concept art. 

The iPhone 5 pictures (concept renders): 

 These brilliant iPhone 5 images and renders are the work of a Dutch designer Martin uit Ulrecht who did an excellent job at sharing his vision of the upcoming iPhone 5 with us. If I didn’t know any better I’d think this was the real deal! In fact these iPhone 5 pictures and renders are so realistic that some online media thought it was the real thing. Still, I really hope that this isn’t the design of the iPhone 5. The reasons is that I would like it if the design was more unique compared with the previous devices in the Apple line-up. 

  Entire generations of iFans grew up on similar designs that became too repetitive and quite honestly plain and dull. In terms of the design the iPhone 4S was the biggest disappointment as it is hard to tell it from the previous model. However, the iPhone 5 may feature a 4 inch screen and this will certainly call for a new look. The extra space also makes room for better hardware and the next iPhone will certainly be packing some great gear bellow the hood. Right now Apple needs to beat the Exynos 1.6 quad core processor that Samsung is using on some Galaxy S3 models and is planning on putting inside the GalaxyNote 2.

 Some are worried that the iPhone 5 may fail to fulfill our expectations and the pressure is on the team making the device due to the rumor that this was the last device the late Steve Jobs worked on.

iPhone 5 displays shipping starts this month!

 The company which has been tasked with producing the screen of the iPhone 5, the new genius phone, is called Sharp and they have announced that they are ready to begin shipping the displays for the new iPhone 5 this month which is great news for the fans of high-tech gadgets and Apple products. The company is based in Japan and their press team was very eager and excited to share some stories with the world. Seeing as the display will be e created according to quality of Japanese engineering we can expect some really nice features and great screen quality and color depth.  

 Our news source, Reuters, reported that Sharp president Takashi Okuda gave the statement: "shipments will start in August" while talking about the new and upcoming Apple iPhone 5. However, he refused to give further details or any more information regarding the screen size of other features which is a real pity. 

Rumored concept art of the 4 inch screen

 Remember that we previously talked about the screen size and expressed some rumors referring to the iPhone 5 screen and display which will soon enough be either proven true or false.

 Further speculations say that t he display is no doubt based on Sharp's IGZO technology, which delivers lower energy consumption which is line with the green and Eco-friendly policy. Sharp's press team said in April that they are looking to make the IGZO technology available to mobile devices and the new iPhone 5 will probably be the first mobile phone taking advantage of this technology. 

We might get a lot of answers sooner  than expected as the iPhone 5 might be presented to the public on the 12th of the September, however, the official iPhone 5 release date remains unknown.
