More iPhone Leaks
August 30, 2011 by Leave a Comment
The iPhone 5 release date is expected to fall in the next 4 to 6 weeks. As we continue to get closer to the launch date we continue to see more leaks and information about the device. As Apple is very secretive about products the only information comes from small leaks which sometimes are correct and other times not at all. Rather than being just 1 device launching this time around, we have heard that Apple will be launching 2 devices which includes the new designed iPhone 5 and a budget iPhone 4s.
What we see next are a few parts on what are believed to be an iPhone 4s. This new device is believed to be codenamed the N94 and be a smaller 8GB version of the iPhone 4. We also hear there’s an N97 model being tested which is believed to be the iPhone 5.
