Apple reportedly placed an order for 15 million iPhones 5s, as the rumor mill heats up leading up to the phone's actual release.
DigiTimes. Sources also say the phone is not much different than the iPhone 4, and Pegatron is already prepping the device for arumored September release.Pegatron, which worked on the CDMA version of the iPhone 4 for Verizon, appears to be continuing its relationship with Apple. The report doesn't reveal many details on the specifications of the device.
Historically, iPhone launches have been so popular that Apple struggled to meet demand. Just last year, the company sold 1.4 million iPhone 4s in the first four days of its release, at a time when the phone was only available on AT&T.
This is the first year Apple delayed the phone in order to ramp up production and avoid shortages.
DigiTimes' report refers to the new device as the iPhone 4S, a term that suggests the new phone will have lighter changes, like the ones made from the iPhone 3G to the 3GS. An unchanged body type would mean the phone is keeping the same exterior look, with only the insides of the phone changing.
Other reports indicated the device may contain the iPad 2's A5 processor, an 8-megapixel camera, a larger display and near-field communications capability, but Apple refuses to tip its hand.
In June, Apple CEO Steve Jobs took the stage at the World Wide Developers Conference where the new iPhone has traditionally been revealed. Instead of announcing new hardware, Jobs took the opportunity to introduce the iOS 5, a new version of the software that powers iPods, iPads and iPhones, including the iPhone 5.
Until he takes the stage again, that's most likely all anyone will know for certain about Apple's next phone.
iPhone 5 will definitely crash the competition on the market. I bet that it will get the price for a headset of the year.
