Everyone is ready for the iPhone 5 to be released. It seems like Apple pushes back these releases many times before they actually happen, but this is for good reason. Apple builds up the buzz about the product and at this point everyone is dying to get their hands on an iPhone 5. I don’t have to tell you that Apple handles marketing as well as anyone in the business. Let’s talk about some of the things that makes people so excited about their latest product.
This is the first iPhone with 4G internet. Whether the user is utilizing AT&T, Sprint, or Verizon as their carrier, they will be able to use it with unprecedented speeds as far as iPhones go.
This is also the first phone that Apple will release that has a bigger screen. Up until this point all of the phones used the same size of screen. With many other companies releasing phones that have bigger screens, Apple realized they need to increase their size a bit, just to be on par with the opposing brands. It is a 4 inch screen.
This Apple phone is a good bit stronger “under the hood.” It has an A6 chip, which greatly increases the processing speeds of the phone. Due to this, you can tell it is noticeably faster when it comes to opening applications and just in general. When an iPhone 5 is used next to an iPhone 4S, it is very easy to tell that the iPhone 5 is much stronger.
Most of the people that have an iPhone 4 have an expiring contract and are ready to move forward and extend their contract with an iPhone 5. Those who have an iPhone 4S are not that lucky as they still have some time on their contracts. So the question exists, is the iPhone 5 enough of an upgrade to buy out the rest of a contract and own it. Personally, I would say that it is not. While it is a better phone, it is not enough of an upgrade to pay the extra money to get out of the contract. It certainly is good enough to keep all users with the Apple brand for another generation.
Well, after all of the wait, the iPhone 5 is finally here. Just a few more short days and it will be here for customers of Sprint, Verizon, and AT&T. The buzz on the streets for this product is amazing. Once again, Apple has everyone ready to snatch up their latest and greatest product.
