iPhone 5 is now seems a to be launched in the not very long time futures, and rumors are now suggesting that the next iPhone will be launched at October after previously rumored at the end of July-September, as well as it will be available in T-Mobile and Sprint also on China Telecom in Q2 2011. As reported by analyst on CNET, however, still not clear about the name of the next iPhone, will it be iPhone 5 or iPhone 4s.
As we know recently the unlocked version of the iPhone 4 GSM model is now official available and ready to be used for any carriers who provide a sim-card such as general unlocked phones. However not every big carrier in U.S has a micro SIM-CARD model. T-Mobile version of the upcoming iPhone reportedly will be a problem related to that things and also to the AT&T acquisition dilemmas.
iPhone 5 3G EVDO Rev. A or WIMAX on Sprint?
Well, if iPhone 5 lands on Sprint with 3G CDMA mean there is no different with it predecessor on Verizon Wireless, but with the new number behind the name, new model etc. So will it be an iPhone Wimax? sounds too far. And let see what T-Mobile has if an iPhone 5 lands there. Will it be a 3G HSDPA/HSPA iPhone? so what the different from the 3G AT&T version now? except the new model etc. Or so will it be an iPhone 5 with HSPA+?. And if everything is correct, iPhone 5 will be available in Sprint and T-Mobile, sure there will be NO iPhone 4G until that time.
UPDATE:
Oct 4, 2011 - Apple officially announced the new variant of iPhone, not iPhone 5 yet, but iPhone 4s - will be available with Verizon and Sprint too as CDMA and Global-capable smartphone.
