3 Features iPhone 5 Must Have to Warrant a Buy

The rumors are circulating about it, but will it have what we’ve been clamoring for? (Gadgets, iPhone)

I don't use Flash on my Droid, it's honestly incredibly clunky and I don't see why Apple would include a dying technology in their phone, especially when they have resisted this long. Everything is going to be going HTML5, why bother?

The phone will most likely have a better camera, it doesn't make sense why it wouldn't however the camera on the iPhone 4 takes good pictures, or at least good enough to be the most used camera on Flickr.

The iPhone 5 doesn't need a bigger touch screen. It's a phone FFS! I want something that fits in my pocket, that's the point of a cell phone, portability.

It's better than not having it.

yes it is.. in this area.. only big companies can push technology toward a new product or service.. without ditching Flash many sites or web base applications wont bother changing their tech to HTML5 or even give consumer a non flash choice, and we wouldnt see HTML5 as industry standard even after 5 years..

I would love for the new iPod Touch and iPhone to have full flash and java support. Makes online games and videos so much easier! Addons such as cloud browse and Skyfire have been able to implement such features but it would be better if the iOS Safari could do it.

I didn't get the reasoning behind having a bigger screen. Like you said it is a phone. The Iphone 4 screen is the perfect size. One nice feature that not just the Iphone 5 needs (but would probably release along side and advertise for the Iphone but will appear on the Iphone 4 as well-that is marketing for you) is wireless syncing.

it is often clunky, but without it apps like kongregate arcade wouldnt be possible... which im sure is one of the reasons that apple doesnt want flash for ios...100s of free games? available outside the appstore...

Meh, they can keep it. I have a camera that takes great pics, and an Android which does everything iPhone at less the hassle. Apple is a dead brand except to the cult and more ignorant.

haha thats true

well said, qft.

Dont forget to add in the sheep, the people who cant decide, lemmings and casuals and hipsters. all people who are pushing technology trends in the wrong direction by going with a dead brand.

and better price :)

hopefully :D

Dream on. Apple has gone down the designer clothes route. If the sell expensive products that not everyone can afford then they are seen as a superior quality. It is how apple has built its brand through this image. Look at apple computers. The software is good but hardware wise for the price they sell it at it is nothing special
michass8  +   665d ago
Agree, well overpriced... People are paying for this very expensive apple logo :)

I don't need to own a Mac to develop apps for an Android phone. Thus, iPhone 5 is out of the question for me.

Why on earth should iOS development be limited to Macs? That's pretty narrow-minded thinking, on Apple's part, as I see it.

CA$H MONEY$ MARKET $HARE

apple is pro apple and a closed off room with a 1 way door.

they want to have an army of people
who have 7 different apple products vs someone who has a windows desktop a android tablet a chrome book and a windows phone. apple wants to kill freedom of choice.

they are becoming the exact thing they talked crap about back then, http://www.youtube.com/watc...
