Expected Features of the Apple iPhone 5 Mobile Phone

People go gaga whenever a new iPhone is expected to be released. Rumors that the iPhone 5 will be released on October 2011 has gotten Apple fans into a frenzy once again, with people from all over the world eagerly anticipating what Apple has in store for consumers this time around. This article takes a look at some of the features fans are expecting to see in the Apple iPhone 5, arguably the most anticipated mobile phone release this year.

The expected features of the phone include:

The design. The Apple iPhone 5 is expected to have a radically different design compared to its predecessors. Said to have a teardrop design, the phone is expected to have a slimmer and lighter build compared to older iPhones. Furthermore, the iPhone 5 is said to have an aluminum plate casing and not glass like its predecessors.

The hardware and software. The Apple iPhone 5 is expected to carry a new operating system (iOS 5) and a more powerful processor (1 GHz dual-core processor), the same processor used in the iPad 2. These make for a faster, more powerful iPhone, including having 4G network capability.
The battery of the iPhone 5 is also expected to be more powerful compared to the iPhone 4, with the talk time pegged at 14 hours maximum. The memory of the phone has been upgraded also, both in terms of RAM (pegged at 1 GB) and storage (pegged at 64 GB).

In terms of software, the iPhone 5 is said to introduce at least two new features: the iCloud allows users to sync their smartphone with iTunes wirelessly, while the Face Recognition software adds to the privacy and security features of the iPhone by confirming the identity of the user before allowing him or her to use the phone itself.

The visuals. The camera is expected to receive a massive upgrade. Not only will it support HD video recording at 1080p, it is also said to have a built-in flash feature to allow you to take even better features than before. Furthermore, the camera is said to take photos up to 8 MP in resolution. There are also rumors that the iPhone 5 will be able to take 3D photos as well. The improvements in terms of visuals aren't just limited to the camera. The iPhone 5 is expected to have a larger screen (about 5 inches diagonally) and better screen resolution.

The cost. In spite of the upgrades the iPhone 5 is expected to have, it is said to have the same price as the iPhone 4G, which means that buyers can get massive savings even as they get to enjoy the new features of the phone. Rumors are also floating around that a low-cost version will be released to make the iPhone 5 easier to reach.
Do note that these expected features are not endorsed by Apple, but are instead speculated by both fans and experts alike, given the past smartphone releases of the company. As such, some of the things listed above may not be seen on the actual model. Have no fear though; as the expected release date of the Apple iPhone 5 draws nearer, more information about the smartphone will be given by the company so you will know what to expect from this iPhone model.
