june is the expected month for the 5 according to the rumor mill.


i'd recommend a simple good search, that would answer your question

i really dont think the rumor mill has made up its mind yet, one day i read that its june and one day i read that it is going to be in the fall. really up in the air yet.

http://9to5mac.com/2012/04/09/new-trend-ask-foxconn-hr-reps-when-the-new-iphone-will-launch-this-time-october/#/vanilla/discussion/embed

that article shows how conflicting this will be.


anyway i would say if you want an iphone get it now, i picked up my 4 in the summer when my upgrade was up and i have no complaints, plus it works out well so i can get the next generation when it releases.

Anyone who complains about droids is either retarded with technology or has terrible luck. iPhones are the most basic shit ever, android has so many different things you can do with it. If you want a phone to go on facebook and instagram on, then get an iphone because thats obviously all you are mentally capable of.

Threw my new bold 9900 on the ground on the weekend because it was so shitty, had it for 3 months. Picked up an iphone 4 and... well, fuck blackberry haha. LOVE IT. I got an otter box case for mine, Ive had otter boxes for every one of my phones since 4 phones ago and they are real good for the price, not too bulky either, which is nice.

none, with every new phone i get i always buy a case, it lasts for a few weeks and then it goes naked, i love the look of the iphone why would you want to hide that?

i have dropped mine a lot lately and it has some dings on the corners but besides that no issues.

Plus, iphones dont have 4g AND have tiny screens, it sounds like the iphone 5 will have a bigger screen though.

$199 for the 16gb.

i doubt it will go up either, also if you wait you an get the 4s for $99, or the 4 now for $99.

macs dont use 4g.

the nest iphone WILL have 4g, that is a given since the ipad is 4g/lte compatible. the iphone will use the same 4g as the ipad so it can connect to verizon and at&ts networks.

get an otterbox case off ebay if you don't want to spend too much, but if you have the cash I'd reccomend a lifeproof case.

my iPhone is completely fucked. dropped it 2 stories to concrete twice.

It was good after the first. Shit worked fine.... I wasn't so lucky on the second one. Now it has no homebutton and it doesn't get service.... So now its a super fucked up iPod. Pretty cool I guess..

check it

I was really impressed when I went down and saw it still turned on haha. The sim card in it flew out and everything.

It fell out of my pocket both times. First time it had a case on and spidered like you see it. The second time no case (because my case broke), but there really wasn't any new cracking, just loss of home button and some of the old glass..

the rumors are usually bs anyway
 
why not get an android?

on verizon id say get a 

Rezound ... the one with the free beats earbuds
720p screen better ppi (pixels per inch) than the iphone -more clear
dual-core processor 1.5ghz - so faster than iphone
1 GB ram  -
removable battery
sd card slot
4G LTE

or the
Razr maxx or Razr
max has a super battery
other than that the same
1.2 Ghz dual core processor
um it's really thin
4G LTE

Galaxy Nexus is cool too



ON AT&T

id get the

galaxy s II skyrocket

or the HTC Vivid

im on verizon so i havn't looked at them as much but they are both dope.


Learn how to root it and flash a custom ROM there are step by step instructions per phone like everywhere
if you need help a forum that does like just that stuff
google XDA and scroll down to your phone ... or google "XDA (name of phone)

I really don't see why people don't use the high end android phones and love iphones so much.
but that's just me
