Is this the next generation iPhone?
Share:
The new iPhone is expected out this summer, and if the picture is the real thing, it looks like the same form factor for the next generation of Apple's touchscreen device. In fact, based on what we see here, one could go out on a limb and say that most of the changes made will be under the hood. Like the iPad, the new iPhone is expected to use Apple's in-house chips. The iPad uses the A4, Apple's own speedy 1GHz processor. With the growing number of handsets that are equipped with Qualcomm's zippy 1GHz Snapdragon, it wouldn't be too much of a stretch to see the A4 being employed on a new iPhone. According to Apple Insider, those in the know about the handset say the home grown system on a chip package, along with software enhancements, will allow the new version of Apple's touchscreen device to offer a faster interface and longer battery life. In a discussion last week between the WSJ's Walt Mossberg and Apple CEO Steve Jobs, the executive said, "It's all about the display. Our chips don't use hardly any power."

Seriously about the pictures. Why so grainy.... Even old VGA camera's on phones don't look that bad. Kinda ridiculous. If they do end up using the A4 in the next gen IPhone, I hope they scale back the processor just a bit as I don't think it would be as much of a need as the IPad. The IPad runs plenty fast with the memory and 1Ghz A4. I'd rather see the A4 Scaled back to 800mhz for improved battery life, or let the software that runs scale it automatically. Just making phone calls? 800mhz, Want to play a game, 1Ghz. Browsing the web. Back to 800mhz.

Let me guess the only thing that has changed is a 5 megapixel camera and a faster processor again?

The iPhone will suffer from RAZR burn. Slight adjustments, nothing really new.

Megan Fox looks the same she did 2 years ago and that doesn't bother me one bit. How much more different can a full touchscreen phone with only a home button get? I don't see the problem here.

The design can stay the same (though most people like change), but what I and many are talking about is the display. It really could be a little bit bigger. The device does not even have to be a lot bigger itself, the screen must take up more of the space. Why a bigger screen? Because bigger resolution is a must. If you compare the Nexus 1, Droid or HD2 screens with the iPhone, it is a BIG difference. It looks much sharper. But 800x480 on a 3.5 inch screen is not nice, so they will have to make the screen larger to at least 3.7 inch. Or make it 4 inch, if you ask me. And Megan Fox FTW. Don't talk bad about her svp.

They need to up the resolution and screen size for one. Sure both worked in the first and second generation but today is a far different story.
