Many Apple fans were disappointed when the company introduced the iPhone 4S in October last year; many hoped that Apple would have announced a redesigned iPhone 5. Many sources close to Apple later confirmed, that the original plan was to launch the iPhone 5 last year, but that the developers ran out of time. This also explained the late launch of the iPhone 4S. This year we can be sure that Apple will come with a new redesigned iPhone, with some major changes compared to the transition from the iPhone 4 to iPhone 4S. Sources close to Apple and their manufacturing plant Foxconn have confirmed that Foxconn is already preparing themselves for the production of the iPhone 5. The new iPhone is likely to have a larger 4-inch display, probably supplied by LG.

The source also confirmed that there is some changes in the design, the casing of the iPhone 5 clearly differ from the current models. While Steve Jobs said that the current display size of the iPhone 5 is perfect, it is very likely that the next-generation iPhone will be equipped with a larger display. We expect that Apple will announce the device during the WWDC this year, when taking a look at the calendar it is likely that the WWDC will take place from 10 to 15 June in the Moscone Center (San Francisco).
