Apple to Announce iPhone 5 and iOS 5 on June 5 to 9?
Apple has just announced the details of its Worldwide Developers Conference for 2011, firing up rumours that it’s planning to launch its next-gen smartphone at the San Francisco event. So will Apple announce the iPhone 5 – or whatever its name will be – on June 5? That’s what this screenshot taken from the Moscone Center website reveals with the usual “Corporate Meeting” placeholder. Historically, Apple has always held its iPhone announcement in early June, so there is no reason for that to change.
Yesterday two independent reports indicated the iPhone 5 will be launched at the end of June and the opposite thing – it will not launch until September. According to the South Korean news outlet ETNews.co.kr Apple will announce the iPhone 5 during the upcoming WWDC and will release it as usual by the end June simultaneously in many countries including South Korea (SK and TK).
The Loop, on the other hand, claims it has its sources who are still keen that there will be no iPhone 5 announcement at the WWDC. They insist it will be released in September instead.
Previous rumors have it that the iPhone 5 will have a dual core A5 chipset, an 8 megapixel camera, bigger internal storage (and screen eventually), NFC support and even a metal casing. We guess we’ll only know for sure this June.
