Two smartphones are in headlines today, facing rumors of release date cancellation and delays. First, the much-anticipated as still good as rumor iPhone 5. According to a report by CNET, Asian-based website Digitimes is claiming that Apple suppliers that are expected to assemble the iPhone 5 are still clueless if Apple is really “cooking” a new device.
The report cited anonymous sources from touchscreen manufacturers, these companies are still manufacturing iPhone 4, and not iPhone 5 because the current iPhone generation still “continues to sell.” Is it possible that Apple is not into introducing a new generation because the iPhone 4 is still selling like hotcakes?
Meanwhile, Motorola Droid Bionic might be dead, according to a rumor reposted by PhAndroid. The phone was unveiled last quarter at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Nevada together with Samsung Droid Charge and the HTC Thunderbolt, but Moto’s LTE-ready phone is still not active in the market (advertising, leaks, etc), indirectly suggesting that the Droid Bionic might have been ditched altogether.
iPhone 5 and Motorola Droid Bionic are considered as early rivals specs wise, although most of the tech specifications of iPhone 5 are still rumors: Like LTE/4G, larger screen size, dual-core processor, NFC etc. Verizon Wireless and AT&T are expected to sell the iPhone 5 (if ever), and Verizon is the exclusive carrier of the Motorola Droid Bionic if the phone will still push through.
