Inside the iPhone 5 and all you need to know  (full review, price and reaction)

Looks of the iPhone 5

The Apple iPhone 5 looks a lot like the iPhone 4S but it's thinner, by 18 per cent, and lighter, by 20 per cent. The screen is taller too, at 4-inches corner to corner, but the phone, held in portrait mode, is the same width. Instead of a glass back, the iPhone 5 back and sides are made from a single piece of aluminium.


Inside the iPhone 5

The handset is powered by an A6 processor, an upgrade from the A5 chip in the iPhone 4S and the A5X in the latest iPad. Apple says the A6 delivers CPU and graphics performance that is twice as fast as the iPhone 4S. It has been rumoured that the iPhone 5 has more RAM too - 1GB, compared with 512MB in the 4S - but this has not been confirmed.

The Camera
Though the camera is still 8-megapixels, Apple says that performance will be improved by the new A6 processor. The iPhone 5 also has better low-light performance and a new panorama mode.
Can I get 4G if I get an iPhone 5?
The iPhone 5 will work on EE, the new 4G network from the company formerly known as Everything Everywhere. That network will launch within the next few weeks but prices and speeds are yet to be confirmed. If you are on another network then you're out of luck: those networks have to wait for the spectrum auction before they can start their 4G services and they are unlikely to arrive before next summer.

SIM card

Yes, to save space Apple has replaced the micro-SIM card in the iPhone 4S with a smaller nano-SIM. Your network should swap the SIM for you, over the counter, at no charge.
What happened to the dock connector?
Another thing Apple has replaced in order to save space: the dock connector. It has been a familiar feature of Apple devices since it was introduced with the third-generation iPod in 2003 but Apple has now replaced it with a smaller 'Lightning' connector. That means the iPhone 5 won't connect to any existing docks or accessories you may have. For those, Apple will sell you an adaptor at £25.

Why doesn't it do

According to Apple's Phil Schiller, the iPhone 5 doesn't have NFC because it's a solution to a problem that doesn't exist. One day, an NFC-enabled phone could replace your wallet but that day is unlikely to come in the next 12 months, by which time Apple will be launching a new iPhone. Wireless charging, meanwhile, was ignored by Apple because it still means plugging something in to charge - it just doesn't plug into your phone.
There are plenty of features that other smartphones have that the iPhone 5 doesn't. If a feature is missing that's essential for you, then this needn't be your phone.

Release date and Price

Apple confirmed yesterday that the iPhone 5 will be released on September 21. Unlocked, the phone will cost £529 (16GB), £599 (32GB) and £699 (64GB). Prices will be lower with a contract and providers are likely to issue prices for those very soon.

Phone Charging Station: A Growing Tidal Wave of Opportunity

While mobile advertising is still a small category representing only $561 million in 2010,
a minuscule percentage of total advertising expenditures, it is one of the fastest-growing
categories with a projected growth rate of 27 percent a year for the next five years.1 As
text messaging use continues to rise, especially in Europe and Asia where text messaging
is used by over 80 percent of subscribers, mobility marketing is taking off.
It’s still unclear exactly how mobile users will embrace advertising. Sixty-six percent
of users say that advertising on this media is annoying.2 Other marketers say they have
success with mobile text messaging if the message is short, targeted, relevant to the user,
and interactive with a call to action. For example, a shopper at a local mall that receives
a message for a discount at her favorite store is likely to appreciate a personal text to
receive 20 percent off on purchases that day. Restaurants and nightclubs might offer customers
a free drink. A consumer product company might offer a coupon for a free trial
when the consumer is asked to enter a special promotion code. Or a music artist or store
could offer a free ringtone or music download.
As marketers experiment with different types of advertising, a combination of text
messaging and promotion might just be the key. If 47 percent of online users participate
in online contest or sweepstakes, and 31 percent use online coupons, then mobile users
may embrace it too.

Not only is the screen larger, but more pixels will appear in the display, making for a new resolution of 640 x 1136. Instead of blowing up the image, there will simply be more image to see.
The new phones are the same width as current models, but they're slightly longer, measuring 3.484 inches tall.

A Radical Change That Could Lead To Loads Of New iPhone Users

Apple Is Making A Radical Change That Could Lead To Loads Of New iPhone Users using PAY AS YOU GO!

Apple is getting serious about trying to dominate the prepaid or Pay as yo GO phone market.
The Wall Street Journal reports that Sprint's Virgin Mobile will start selling a prepaid iPhone on July 1, making it the second carrier in the United States to do so and the first carrier with national reach.
Cricket Communications announced last week that it would start selling prepaid iPhones on June 22.
Apple's partnership with Sprint will likely do much more to expand the iPhone's reach. As the Journal points out, Cricket is a regional network that covers just 60 million people while Virgin Mobile is national and covers 278 million people.

There's no word yet on how much Virgin Mobile will charge for the iPhone and the plan. Cricket charges $399 for an 8 GB iPhone 4 and a set price of $55 each month for unlimited talk, text and data. That price range, combined with Virgin Mobile's reach, could convince many Americans to pick up an iPhone who might otherwise be apprehensive about signing a two-year contract
