iPhone5

They just wouldn't stop, would they?

 iPhone 4 was just released last year and another year later, it's suddenly being replaced by the now latest iPhone 5 that's set to be released on October this year. Apple fanatics and those with money to burn would surely like to get their hands on this baby even if only a few things have been changed. I'm sure that the phones will be sold out by the time they're released since people usually make a big fuss whenever Apple comes up with a new product (iPad 2, anyone?). But really, who am I to judge these people when I don't even own an iPhone. But this constant upgrade and making older models obsolete after just a year or two is ridiculous.

You like?




The iPhone 5 surely boasts of new and improved features and what nots that I don't really care for since I'm really not that knowledgeable about iPhones (and don't even own one) and talking about it would only make me look stupid. To be honest, it does look pretty cool and chic and if I'd ever own one, I'd probably dangle it in front of everyone else.

I'm sure the interface has been improved. I can't really explain what interface means since I'm not a genius but it's one of those words that I understand but can never explain. But to to give this post substance, I googled the rumored new features of iPhone 5.

  • Curved glass and rumored 3D display. Seriously. 3D on your phone. Quite useless but fascinating and a feature worth bragging to other people to.
  • 8 MP camera with dual flash. I've always found pictures taken with an iPhone quite blurry compared to other phones with crazy camera resolutions that could be compared to digital cameras. So for people who like to take pictures of everything with their phones, I guess this is something to be happy about.
  • Where has the home button gone? As you can see from the picture above, the characteristic home button for iPhone is gone. Whoops.
The article I googled had more to say about the phone than myself and I would have gladly shared it here if ever I understood it. Unfortunately, I don't so I just had to post the things my mind can wrap around. The article said something about an A5 processor, a RAM of 1GB rather than the usual 512MB, and HD video recording and much more.



Very pretty, don't you think? But I'd rather have phones with actual keys than those with touch screens. I sort of text (Ooops.) while I drive and having touch screen phones would be pointless.

What do you think of the new iPhone 5?
