Report: Next gen iPhone to ship in September


According to a very brief report off Reuters, the newest iPhone will go into production in July and ship in September.

The report was augmented over on Apple Insider, with some iPhone 5 details they same came via “a note” from Concorde Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo:

Kuo’s checks with the supply chain indicate the that iPhone 5 will include the faster A5 processor currently found in the iPad 2 and an 8-megapixel rear camera. He has also been told that the next-generation smartphone would sport a Qualcomm baseband for both GSM and CDMA models and make use of an improved antenna design.

In recent years, new iPhones have launched in the summer, and it has been posited the delayed ship date could be due to production slow-downs in Japan following the recent disaster. Another rumor blamed a “major overhaul” of the phone, which conflicts with the reported updated specs in the most recent rumor.

Are you going to be upgrading this go-around?
