Bloomberg has jumped into the iPhone 5 rumor game, saying that the next generation iPhone will launch in September with the same form factor as the current iPhone 4.
This is in stark contrast to yesterday’s rumors from BGR, which claimed an August release for a redesigned iPhone 5.
Bloomberg also claim its sources confirmed a few other rumors that we have heard before. It claims Apple is working on a new iPad with a resolution of a third higher than the iPad 2; with a more responsive touchscreen. This one is a bit sketchy due to the problems this would cause developers. It also resurrected the rumor of a cheaper iPhone for developing countries, which could be the basis for the long standing iPhone nano rumors. This, it says, will use the current chip and screen of the iPhone 4. Sounds like the iPhone 4 will more likely just become the cheaper option for carriers just as the iPhone 3GS is now.
TiPb keeps hearing a September/October release timeframe for iPhone 5, along with the possibility of another iPad this year, and the “iPhone nano” device, in whatever form it takes, so there may well be something to this. What do you think?
