Really no clue about the what...
On hardware I expect some flaming higher dpi screen and as rumors say, larger.... so saying their device goes large but not thick to make it more user friendly etc etc
Maybe something about camera, a few Mb and some faster shot or kinda
Ofc some software stuff we already have, or if we are lucky, something new that we can kang but no idea on a what!

Well, im interested to see what apple have included in the next upgrade! i would never have another iphone though.
I dont think it will be any more powerful than the s3, and from what i have seen it has about half an inch of extra screenage!!
I would be surprised if they unlocked the OS to compete with android and the customisation, but i doubt that will happen!
maybe apple will introduce bluetooth file sharing!!!!!! every other phone has it, why not on iphones? there is a cheap £50 phone at tesco's which texts calls and takes photos. i think its a cheap rubbish Alcatel phone. it has bluetooth.
ah well, ill just stick with what i know and like. Samsung!!!!!

Yes, I expect Iphone 5 to features - 2gb RAM, Quad Cores, 3300mAh battery, 4.65" retina screen and discount 50% for all apps for 2yrs. Is that too much to expect?

yeh im looking forward for iphone 5 but just for interesting. Had iphone 4s, phone maybe isnt so bad, but operating system is totally crap. Couldnt even send files over bluetooth...... android ftw

Here's what I know already:
1) It will still be highly dependant of iTunes.
2) Users will have to wait maybe months for a jailbreak.
3) The OS will basically still look the same as it did in 2007.
4) Still won't be able to backup the device on the memory card (ala cwm).
5) It will still have only one button - no dedicated back or menu keys.
6) You still won't be able to Bluetooth apps / movies / music to other phones.
7) Out of the box it won't just work until it's activated.
8) No removable battery of external memory card support.
9) I could seriously go on and on and on. But I've wasted enough time on crapple.
Please understand, I actually also own an iphone but once you've tasted android, ios is a major pain in the behind. Unless you are a simple person who find it difficult to do anything other than swype left to right.
Man I haven't tinkered with my iPhone since last year. I'm just bored of it and find it cumbersome to do anything on it. Believe me, it works great for messaging and taking / making calls.
I'm still on an older firmware because upgrading would mean hours and hours or restoring and re-downloading hacks, if they still work.
What pisses me off most is all the hype and media attention it gets. The S3 will still be a much better phone but still no media reports about it, on TV at least. Here in Australia all the major news networks have been talking about it's release for a week. Even today there was an ad for the morning news, which will feature the new iphone. Apple have bought out the media I think.

I hope I'm wrong though, and Apple blows our minds with some awesome innovation and declare it creative commons. Man that'll sure be surprising

Ill wait till the GS4 comes out lol i'm waiting for another keyboard these companies are stupid for making a straight edge touchscreen phones, there okay but their not awesome.
If i were to make a phone i would throw a 2GHz Dual or Quad-core CPU, 400-500MHz GPU, a 5-16MP Camera. (16 in back and 5 in front). CM9 (4.0.3), anywhere from a 4.5 to a 5" screen with a damn Keyboard but make the phone slimmer it will obviously be a bit bulkier than just a touchscreen but slimmer than the Epic 4G.
HAHA Will laugh at this post one day when we do or have better like probably in 2015+
That's just my feelings for those who want to update their phones constantly.

Why do we have dual core phones with 5" screens as it is why do we need 4G?
Why do we need all that, its because Technology grows and people want change if it stayed the same life would crumble up. Lol trust me i see it happen to people.
If were heading to Quad-core Next year what does it matter then?

I didn't mean it like that, I meant it as like what's the real benefit to all these phones that are expected to come out. I'm happy with my epic, I don't care about how many cores a phone have and how many Megapixels it's front and back camera have. It works just fine for my standards as well as many other. There's no real world value to a phone a 16mp camera when you can buy a 16mp camera cheaper than your phone.

A valid argument on both sides. But with respect to the camera, the way I see it is the point-and-clicks are going to be extinct in a few years. If your smartphone, of which everyone owns (or will own) one, has a camera that works just as well as a separate point-and-click, why own a point-and-click?

There's different desires for everybody. There are those like you that just want the phone to do an adequate job overall, and those that want the cutting edge, aka latest and greatest technology. I don't think there's anything wrong with either desire, just different personal wants

See, I frankly dont give a crap about the hardware specs of the GSIII or whatever my next phone will be. I want a few basic things out of it though:
Ability to play high profile h.264 video in 1080p
MHL port functioning day 1
USB OTG without a need for external power
NFC
Apart from those, pretty much the only other consideration I have is the size and quality of the screen. The CPU/GPU are gonna be adequate no matter what they are from this point on. Having a quad core isn't necessarily gonna offer me anything more than having a quality dual core. The GPU/video decoder is important, but the CPU not that much. I dont care about the camera, especially not the FFC which I have used 1 time. I dont care about a hardware keyboard because I rarely use it anyways.
I probably would rather get a GNote instead (hopefully the GNote 2 will be out by the time my upgrade in June comes up). That 5.3" screen is tempting. Got to play with one yesterday from a friend who put it on AT&T (International version unlocked) and to me it doesn't really feel too big . In fact, browsing web pages is amazing on that thing. Plus I took a pic, wrote and drew on it with the included stylus, and sent it to Facebook.

its just a bigger version of the galaxy s2 .. i rather wait and see wat galaxy s3 brings too the table .. and most likely it will get/have jelly bean.. not so sure about that GNote.
My simple explanation would be this: I want it to be what my Epic 4G was compared to my previous phones. I enjoyed my Epic and still am I could hold on to this phone for another year

but as always the clean cut Bala has hit it on the nail on the coffin. hox and s3 are the best android phones of the moment and only enhance android even more

my friend has an ipad and he had a 3gs before he got his new s3. he loves android but still he is a noobie. same with me..before i moved to android last year i only had iphones...although the last year they kinda did not do anything to push the iphone to the next level i still highly rate them. so as you said as well. looking with very high interest what they will bring to the table this week coming. should be interesting to see what they will find as "innovating" and time to revolutionize
Personally, I think mt HTC One X LTE runs quite poorly for the specs and is not a good representative of Android.
The GS3 is amazing though and my old phone, the Xperia S ran quite well despite the older Qualcomm S3 chipset.
I already guessed what's the next ios/iphone5 look like/features are... the ios is going to be exactly same as is now. Same layout. Same icons, same ui. Iphone5 going to be same as is now with a larger screen. No microUSB, no MicroSD , non removable battery.... .... it's time people wake up

I hope thisnisnt the case though if history is any indicator then this is exactlynehat we'll see. iOS is so stale and its time for some big changes and ideally some sort of marriage between osx and ios for the ipad- while the ipad may be the most popular tablet with the most app support, it certainly doesn't have an ideal OS or even one that capitilizes on the available real estate.

Foxconn CEO: "New iPhone will put Galaxy S III to shame"

http://www.tomshardware.com/news/Foxconn-Hon-Hai-Galaxy-S-III-iPhone-5-apple,16090.html
I nearly chuckled when I saw this one.
I guess that means it must run Android then, because if it runs iOS it doesnt stand a chance of doing so..
Lets be frank here, it will look much the same as the current iPhone (boring), it will feel much the same to use (boring), it will be locked down and restricted like the current iPhone (boring), and will have the same (boring) baristas, emos are douches queueing up for it on day one. Ill pass.

At this point Apple buyers are like BMW buyers, they will buy any old ridiculous turd as long as it has the badge on, so really statements like this are just sermons for the iSheep, and pretty meaningless to the rest of us. As long as Apple makes it they will buy it, why? because Apples says its best and therefore it is. Its almost a religion now..
But dude, it has an apple logo.
...
Some rumors I've read claim that it will be equipped with a dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4.
I think that a good optimization can make the difference, placing Apple's smartphone between HTC One S and Android quad-core phones.
IMHO Apple will put a enormous capacity battery into the iPhone...
I guess since we're comparing a phone that will be out several months later that doesn't even exist yet; we'll compare it to another like phone... I'm sure the GSIV will put the iPhone 5 to shame then lol.

I cant see that, Apple will want their own CPU in there (and by that i mean a modified Samsung as the A4 and A5 were). It will probably have the A5x.
PErsonally I'm quite excited for the iPhone 5 and what it will bring.
Having had a look at the rubbish minor "new" features for iOS, I'm thinking Apple will have drastically improved the hardware of iPhone 5.
That is good for the whole industry
I'm sure the new iPhone will be excellent. Without new iPhones and new Galaxy's wouldn't it get boring. These companies need to push out great phones to keep giving us great products.

I don't think smarts has anything to do with it really. Rooting and installing ROM's is a whole lot easier than jailbreaking and using it's related tools, etc..
I just think the 'average' Android user and the 'average' iOS user could really care less..
every new device,if the job is done well, is goint to become leader at the time of its introduction it will be same with iphone 6 and then again with galaxy s4, etc.

I think it was a clever move by foxconn. The more people that get the s3 the less that will be available 2 sign up for a 2 year contract on the new iphone and the less orders foxconn will receive . And consequently the less money they make.
I personally think the iphone is easier for people to use who are novices. And it's more stable. However the s3 if you know how can do so much more.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using XDA
Ok before I get started I would like to stress I am no fanboy of either apple or android... I simply like good products... So no flaming please.
Now down to business, the biggest problem with the S3 (yes I own one) is the fact that samsung (and all non GED devices to be fair) seem to forget the fundamental rule... Optimize the software to run effectively on the hardware. The galaxy nexus (Yes I own one) for me runs just as fast as the s3 in terms of web browsing and general use... Yes the animations are slightly smoother on the s3 but how is it possible for the browser to not have any significant speed improvement??
Fact of the matter is that apple will optimize the iPhone 5 to the extent that it doesn't need the hardware the s3 has to run as fast (rest assured as always it always does, will flatten the s3 in benchmarks and browser speeds).
Apple seem to understand that optimisation is the way forward and this is why the next Nexus is a no brainer... Touchwiz can do all it does but it will never run as smoothly nor work as well as AOSP.

[Opinion] Who do you think "stole the show" today?

Thursday, August 30, 2012
XDA Members & I9300 Owners:
Here we are... at the end of yet another long statistics and promises-laden tech event. The devices were many; the showstoppers few. Yet here we are... flipping through XDA as usual. What devices caught your eye? What devices surprised you, and what devices did not? Will any of you be jumping ship from the I9300; and if you will, are any of you valued developers? How have the events of the past 24 hours changed your foreseeable future? More importantly, how do you think the past day has changed XDA's foreseeable future? Do you see high-traffic camera threads in XDA's future? Do you see Windows Phone 8's clean build usurping the DIY appeal of Android? What are your thoughts?

I agree with most of that. The Note always attracts attention. However, even with as much of a hit as it was, I don't see myself buying one. I already have an N7000, and I'm not too fond of the switch from 1280x800 to 1280x720 or the lower DPI. The N7000 was already right on the border between visible pixels and retina-size pixels.
On another note, did anybody notice the 7" gaming tablet from Archos? They always make the crappiest stuff. Then, out of nowhere, they announce this kick-ass beast. I'll be getting one of those for sure!

They did.....guess what?....they had to change the design because of Apple
That looks like the S1!
Nokia must be panicking now after the specs of the windows phone were released. It's an awesome package. Did you see the back of the device? It's beautiful (the front not so much, as already mentioned). Why the GSIII doesn't have that quality is beyond me. Metal over plastic every time. It's a no brainer. It oozes quality.
In the end though, it's a windows phone. That in itself will mean the development of the device (from here and professional developers) will be limited.
Still love the back though.

5.5 Inch iPhone who's changing ship

The new iOS has widgets, and u can chose your own keyboard plus many software changes. Admittedly copied from Android.
I'm considering.... I don't use the s. pen much or most of the bloat ware.. The camera on the iPhone will be great plus I luv the way it's all (apps and data) backed up (to do this on Android I have to root and lose my warranty) . I have found my note 3 to be good but the new iPhone could be great... Are you thinking of changing?

What the hell is an iphone?
Hell no.
I used to say if Apple ever released an iPhone with 5inch screen or more I'd probably return. However, not so much now - I own an iPad Mini and can't really see much benefit to using another Apple product. Plus with my flashing addiction now, it'll never happen.

I was with iPhone from the beginning until the S3 came out, that was when I first switched over to Android, but Android has come so far now, where as iOS is falling behind. if you could flash custom ROMS on iOS... then I could be tempted back.. There's certainly no denying Apple Hardware is pretty damn good. (or run Android on Apple Hardware, I think this may be possible one day - especially as you can run windows on a MAC)

don't forget some of the chip is manufactured by samsung
and Samsung is coming out with its Tizen o/s.
don't know how it looks like in deep, might be the same with iOS.
Nah, can't stand iOS now after using Android for so long... Have an iPad 4th gen and i hardly use that because i find iOS to be just eurgh... Used to be an Apple fanboy a while back... Never again i'm afraid...
We have to wait the new version of Android first... however since I bought the note 3 I also sold the ipad air...
No I won't. The thought has crossed my mind many times but no. I won't go back to the horror called iTunes or not being able to download stuff even via safari (I used to have both an iPhone 4 and a Galaxy s1). Back then I'd have to admit IOS was better than Android. Nowadays since jellybean I wouldn't recommend IOS over anything. The fact that you will be limited in every sense of the word still makes it a big NO for me. Just my 2c.

The camera on the iPhone might just be another 8mp shooter. And no, I wouldn't be using something copied.

Click "Thanks" if I was of any help!
So you can change keyboards and use widgets.
Wonder how long till Apple sue someone for breaching their patent on them?
Also, seen some adverts from Apple on TV and as usual, they parade some new features in such a way it makes it look like they were the innovators of them. Very clever... Unless it's just iSheep that believe that ****

What is this iPhone you speak of? I wouldn't swap for an iCrap even if it had a mechanical arm that scratches my arse for me! Closed source rubbish! That 5.5" display is gonna be another crappy retina display like the previous 4 generations of iCrap!

Despite the rumors, I don't think apple will release the 5.5 inches screen, only the 4.7 one and a tweak on the iPhone 5S. They will not be as stupid as to lose the size their user base loves so much... I mean, with all the BS on one hand operation we've had to put up with for so long, they wouldn't be as dumb as to pass on that, right?
Apple is copying many of the best Android features, making itself more attractive to Android users, but in all honesty, it's not enough.
Like aluminum? The HTC one m8 is better, larger, sports better sound, and has all the Android stuff apple has not copied yet. Like better looks? The LG G3 is just amazing... Then there is price... Flagship material like the one plus one or the find 7 are half the price of the iPhone, with better specs and way more flexibility.
I don't know, I really don't see any reason to move to Apple.
