Joshua Topolsky, who previously used to be an editor at Engadget, currently employed at ‘This is my next,’ shard on his website the rumors he has gathered for the iPhone 5 so far. It is noticeable that the rumors were based on not only one but “a variety of sources,” which gives a sense of ambiguity regarding the authenticity of his report. However, considering these are still rumors, there is an equal chance of them being perhaps being valid and true. The new website might even just be writing rumors regarding iPhone 5 to increase the weekly traffic to the site’s link as previously Apple connected news have done that easily.
Despite most of the rumors previously acknowledged totally claim that its main highlights will be faster processor, specifically speaking the A5 and the 8 megapixel camera in the upcoming version of Apple‘s iPhone. It was always claimed with those rumors that any apparent structural modification to the shape or size of the iPhone is not expected in this year’s edition. These reports written by Topolsky at his post in ‘This is my next,’ are a complete reciprocal and contradictory to the previous ones.
