Radical iPhone 5 Coming This August

Oh yes please Apple, make this. BGR is reporting that a radically new iPhone 5 is due to be announced this August and will be available for purchase several weeks later.

We have heard it’s quite possible Apple will break tradition. According to our source, Apple may hold an event in the beginning or middle of August to announce the new iPhone, with availability to follow in the last week of August. We’re not sure if that means the iPod event will be moved up slightly, or if this will be an iPhone-specific event. Thisismynext reported earlier that the upcoming iPhone 5 would feature a new teardrop-shaped case design.

The design below is a mock up, created by Thisismynext and we like it. It looks like a kind of up-ended MacBook Air but we’re not sure that Apple would go with this design. Keep checking back to theappwhisperer.com and we’ll keep you informed.
