Next Gen iPhone Specs "Leaked"
And so it begins. Today we have the first set of ‘leaked’ specs for the next generation iPhone, set for launch in June of this year.
Macrumors reports that in early May a forum poster from Chinese site Weiphone posted specs and a screenshot he claimed is the next generation iPhone. From what we can see, they’re pretty much in line with what the rumors have been saying. Faster processor, more RAM, better camera and more storage.

- Model number MB717LL
- 600MHz CPU Speed (up from 400MHz)
- 256MB RAM (up from 128MB)
- Digital Compass and FM
- 3.2 megapixel camera with auto focus
- 32GB size
- No major changes in battery, screen and external casing.
That said, the last bullet on that list is a little disappointing. The battery life of the iPhone is something almost everyone complains about. For a phone that has more apps than you could shake ten sticks at, the battery life is pretty pathetic and according to these rumors, Apple has no plans to remedy that issue. Lame.
What say ye, fact or fiction?
Meaning, it's going to require more recharges than the previous generations of iPhones.

Is that a bad thing? Don't forget for the guys in the US office, it's only 0910. Give them a chance. :P
Agree. As I remember, the consumption rate of my old Dell axim 90 (624MHz) was massive compared to the 30 (300MHz or so). Course, they're a different architecture completely, but it's the only comparison I've got. That, plus the extra RAM and auto-thisthat features...all adds up to less battery life. Which you still can't replace.
Just making sure. :P
Anyway it seems like only a small bump in the specs.
I'm sure Apple could have improved the battery life a little but probably not by much since there's only so much space for the battery, and lowering the consumption would have ment less performance. Maybe a new screen to use less power ... Anyway I think that while people will be complaining about bettery life and non replaceable battery they'll keep buying the iPhone so it's not a real problem for Apple. Apparently the specs aren't a priority for them either, the new phones out there have 8 MP camera, 1 GHz CPU, HD video recording... Oh well
possible it all depends on the process used to create both processor and ram. kinda like a 45nm cpu uses a lot less power then a 65nm cpu does.
huh? what version of the iPhone are you using? Think you got a knockoff... besides that i also have what they call a "phone charger" which i can skip plugging it into my computer.
htc has some nice phones like the touch but it's not always about specs software counts too...
so much hate... with all the time you spend hating the iPhone you probably could of been going to the gym and doing something positive.
Obviously a prank from chinese site.
Translate!
Dont have time mate...
Must go to gym and then do something positive...
lol sad man...
Any device that doesn't allow me to replace the battery...and wants me to pay some obnoxious fee to have someone else open a case and replace it...is a device I will not buy.
That would be like buying a projector...and when the bulb goes bad, have to ship it in and pay 2x what the bulb is worth for someone else to open the case and screw it in.
That and for me I like having longer battery life on a phone, especially for trips. My phone, camera, and sansa all have very long battery life. I don't need to worry about them going out on me and wearing down durring the day/night.
So for the iphone its battery and replacement is just too ineficient of a notion for me to even consider. That said I'm happy for everyone who likes their gagets. To each their own.
It's probably a knock off (with some enhanced specs)
