Apple introduced the iPhone 4S - all the answers were received, and now it's time to think what is the next phone controlled by iOS. According to rumors, the development of the iPhone 5 and attempts to answer the questions about the design brainchild of company founder, made Italian designer Antonio de Rosa.
According to Will Strauss (Will Strauss), president of research firm Forward Concepts, the next iPhone model will be compatible with networks of 4G LTE. LTE-network standard that means "long-term development of communication networks» (Long-Term Evolution)-differ considerably higher compared to the standard network 3G, speed send and receive data from the network, but is now working with such networks leads to " very rapid discharge of the battery, "the mobile device on that" most users are complaining. "
If Apple has decided to use this standard in the previous models of iPhone, it would have to make the phone thicker, so it would fit a larger battery and circuit board. Held in April at a conference on financial results, Apple CEO Tim Cook said that "the use of LTE chipsets will result in the necessity of the first generation to sacrifice the look."
Fortunately for Cook and Apple, the company Qualcomm, it seems, is developing a new LTE chip, thinner and much smaller than the current available. It is expected that the new chip will appear in the second or third quarter next year, but maybe, Apple will try to expedite this process to put the chip in the first version of the next model iPhone.
