Apple is notoriously tight-lipped about new products before they are released, but the iPhone 5 is proving to be even more mysterious than previous versions. There are almost no credible rumours about the devices size, shape or any other specs. Even the name is still a mystery, with both ‘iPhone 5′ and ‘iPhone 4S as the likely candidates. The one detail that may now be known, is the announcement date. This is now tipped to be October 4th – just under two weeks away. Apple are normally very good at making new products available in stores soon after announcement, so you can expect to have a shiny new iPhone in your hands before the end of October.
This will also be the first iPhone which is not introduced by Steve Jobs. Steve retired several months ago due to his declining health, handing the CEO role on to Tim Cook. It is expected that Tim Cook will make the announcement for the new iPhone, so it will be interesting to see if he has same flair that Steve Jobs has had for years. Steve certainly put a lot of faith in him, so I think we can continue to expect great things out of Apple!
