Apple Event on the 12th
Yes sir. The time has come for "iPhone 5" I'm sure many of you are following this as well. Previous releases allow pre orders just a couple days after the Apple events so this year should be no exception. I'm guessing it should be available on the 14th at 6pm for pre order and then available in stores on the 21st because those are the black out dates that employees have from AT&T, Apple, Verizon, and Sprint.
I'll be getting the biggest and most badass one like I always do. I have the 64GB 4S currently with carbon fiber back Each year the camera usually gets better which means it requires more storage space for photos and I take a lot. My 64GB is full, believe it or not. I have to delete stuff all the time to make room. Did you see the "5" in the shadow?

Yes, I might be upgrading to an iPhone, but I don't have an iPhone currently, so your poll kind of sucks..the Lumia 920 looks pretty awesome as well, and I'm also going to see what the next Google Nexus phone will be. Competition FTW!

I had so much fun for the iPhone 4 launch. Since I got mine on a thursday, thanks to FedEx F-up, I was able to be the d-bag showing it off to every one camping at the Apple Store that night waiting for the real iPhone 4 release lol

I love my S3 DROID!!!!!
I think it will just be bigger version of the 4 and with very few features. Than you will have people crying that how will people know I upgraded. I for one love being different and been with android for years will never go to apple now. So locked down.

Yeah each one has its pros and cons obviously.
I like being able to purchase almost any device in stores whether it be a printer, smart tv, alarm clock, stereo, or whatever and they're always "iPhone compatible". Theres too many android versions out there that its not financially beneficial for companies to fabricate all kinds of docks and such for them. The iPhones change once per year and a universal dock give them a HUGE advantage, plus it just works well for me. I surf online and take lots of pics. I don't even use the apps really.... People talk about about being locked down by Apple, I've never asked/wanted anything else from the iPhone. I don't see a need to be jail broken or anything. Oh well. To each their own. Not sure how I feel about this new dock connector yet..... smaller is nice. (Less lint gets in there from my pocket, more room for better speakers or larger battery..)

^ I agree... the iPhone is the biggest and baddest of the smart phones but you can absolutely count on it working and a huge selection of apps. The first app everyone builds is for the iPhone.

If the rumors come out to be true, I want to hear Apple's justification on taller screen first. I have been an iPhone user since 3G. If I am not satisified with the new one, I am thinking of switching to Galaxy S3.

I think the reason they gave a few years ago was that they wanted a person with normal sized fingers to be able to access the entire phone with just a thumb and not need two fingers all the time. Probably the reason for not making it any wider either.

Android is an amazing accomplishment especially with Jelly Bean but it still lacks a lot of polish compared to iOS and third party support is just catching up as well as enterprise features.
I've loved the 4 and unusually haven't jailbroken this one so think the 5 will be a good improvement for me.
