Apple is expected to launch its next iPhone, and new reports describe it as a completely redesigned handset as well as a “total rethink from a design standpoint.” To start, the iPhone 5 internals will be different, the device will run on a new, combined CDMA/GSM/UTMS chipset from Qualcomm, which will support both AT&T and Verizon here in the U.S.
There are also reports revealed by Chinese source that Apple is planning to adopt a different method similar used for the shell of the MacBook Pro for the production of iPhone 5 while the rear glass used in the iPhone 4 will be set aside.
Here is the text of the report:
It seems that Apple is planning to use an aluminum back, scratch-resistant, lighter and with the least possible number of production problems (eg. Paint etc…)
The next iPhone antenna will also be redesigned and repositioned to avoid any sort of signal reception. While iPhone 5 will be powered by new A5, a dual-core processor with 1 GHz used for the first time already used in iPad 2.
The new iPhone model will be introduced in June and we will let you update.
