The new iPhone model could already have been sent to carriers for testing. In addition, to keep its final design secret, Apple could have shipped the phones under a prototype case and safeguarded the original model until the last minute. In this way, Apple should launch its iPhone 5 by September.
This information comes from the newspaper The Guardian , which has received information from one of the operators who have received the terminal, although his identity has been anonymous. In addition, the newspaper assures that at most, in two weeks it should start mass production of the new iPhone 5 and that if its launch is delayed until October, this would be due to a production problem.
Thus, Apple would have accelerated the launch of its new product by sending mobile operators a prototype in high-security boxes and preventing any information leakage from coming to light as happened with the current version of the iPhone 4. Another of the theories that are also maintained is that Apple will present its iPhone 5 together with the release of the new iOS 5 icons.
On the other hand, if the Guardian sources hit the nail on the head, they wouldn't understand a delay either. Rather, Apple should put the product into circulation as soon as possible and gain maximum market share before the winter holidays arrive. Even so, other information suggests that iPhone 5 will continue to appear during the month of October based on information leaked by Telus, one of the Canadian operators.
