Looks like new iPhone will be announced tomorrow.

From what we've heard:

- There might be 2 (A full new release and a faster version of the iPhone 4)
- Might have an Apple A5 processor
- Should come in 16GB and 32GB.
- New iOS coming as a simultaneous release?

Well from the picture, Tuesday the 4th at Apple's HQ, the last icon symbolizes 1 new phone?

Looks like you're right.

- Dual core processor
- 8mp camera with 1080p recording
- New antenna

That's it :S

I'd like to get a hold of the iPhone 4S, to be honest. My iPhone 3G is getting really old and slow, and with a dual core processor, much improved camera, I'm all for one. An unlocked version is a steep $649 CAD though :S

I'd be impressed it it matches up, but chances its just good old Apple marketing BS.

If you at the Test Shots, the images are pretty damn good.

Yeah I agree, I can't believe the sales. However I may pick one up sometime in the near future. My contract expires in about 5 months and this is the best phone on Fido right now. When contract renewal comes around I may just pick one of these up. Even if I don't keep it, I might as well haggle the best price I can get and sell it for a different phone.

Well to be fair it's not being tested on the same OS. That said Apples iOS 5 looks quite optimzied.

Haha, 4 million units? Looks like a great seller. I'm slightly tempted to buy one :P

But here's a drop test of the 4S vs GSII :P

That looks like a costly Video to make, but interesting how the iPhone just Shatters.
