The iPhone 5 coming in October 2012

The sixth generation of Apple’s iPhone, the iPhone 5 is thought to be arriving in Apple stores in October 2012. The suggested date is a year after the launch of the iPhone 4. Of course, Apple are staying quiet about the new phone, but that hasn’t stopped people speculating about proposed differences between the old and new. Fans are already eagerly awaiting their visit to Virgin mobile, Three or O2 to upgrade at the end of the year.

Wireless charging
It is thought the phone won’t need a port-cable connection to charge. The iPhone 5 might use inductive charging, where you place the phone on a charge mat, so it can charge through induction. It’s a clever idea if true. We’re known for leaving phones lying around, on the desk at work, on the side at home. What if it can charge it at the same time wherever it lays?

Battery improvement
The trouble with the iPhone has always been, there is so much packed into them, the battery loses life quickly. That probably won’t change, but the iPhone 5 might be the first to use the organic radical battery (ORB) technology, that’s been developed by Japan’s NEC. The battery is environmentally-friendly in comparison to the standard lithium ion batteries. And the ORB has a ridiculously fast recharge time (30 seconds) and higher energy density. This means it will pack more power into a smaller battery.

Appearance
There is no doubting Apple puts a lot of effort into product appearance, so why would they change that now? The iPhone 5 will have a modern, thin look apparently. The shape may not be what we expect though. Also, to add to the environmentally friendly factor, naturally-sourced plastics might be used for the casing.
We shall have to wait a few months before we can test it out for ourselves. Until then, we shall happily speculate along with everyone else.
