According to the latest rumours (which are not confirmed nor denied by Apple), the much-anticipated iPhone 5 will be named as iPhone 4S to signal a minor upgrade from its predecessor iPhone 4. Peter Misek (an analyst from Jeffries), as quoted on Forbes, mentioned that the upcoming iPhone 4S will include minor cosmetic changes and HSPA+ support (no mentioning of 4G though), with an upgrade to A5 dual-core processor and better cameras.
The iPhone 4S powered by A5 dual-core chip has been started to making the round in April 2011 after a new iPhone prototype seeded to high-end game developers had been known to have an unofficial name of iPhone 4S, and was spotted running on an A5 chip. There is still some uncertainties on the expected release date of iPhone 4S (or iPhone 5). Generally, Apple iPhone is announced during WWDC held mid-year, with the phone physically available by June or July.
However, speculation is hot that the new iPhone will only available at September.
