iPhone 5
Apple's next generation mobile phone after the iPhone 4. iPhone 5 reportedly uses a similar metal frame design as the iPhone 4, but reconfigures the antenna layout to avoid short-circuiting when the phone is held in normal use. The new iPhone will have a faster A5 processor, an 8-megapixel camera, and support for iOS 5.
The web has exploded with excitement about an unknown iPhone model which was obtained by parts and repair firms. A YouTube video about the unknown iPhone was also ordered to be taken down by Apple.
