There's been a few flying around the last few weeks, being an Apple user I tend to get a few emails a day concerning Apple products, and just recently have had a few suggestion what the next iphones going to be. I tend to ignore most of them. But I have been interested enough to not buy the S4 or HTC One until the Apple announcement.

I am a total fanboy and have loads of Apple hardware including an iphone 5. I just got my hands on an HTC One as I am bored with the iPhone.
The HTC One is a fantastic phone but I am already irritated after one day being out of the Apple eco system. Apple make everything work so well together. Damn you Crapple!! I want a bigger screen and an up to date OS.
Will probably be sending the One back as much as it pains me. Its stunning. Great build quality, amazing screen and SOUND. Damn you Apple... Grrrr
Yes there's a few things I'd like to see on the iPhone 6, slightly bigger screen, sd card for photos and music, widgets for turning on wifi, 3g etc or at least a quick access button for the most used features hidden away in settings.
I think between the S4 and HTC One I'd go for the HTC but I do like the way all my Apple products work together, and I would miss that should I go over to Android.

You may see a bigger screen and quick access toggles but I doubt you will ever see an SD card slot.
I don't see Apple telling anyone including the networks about any new phone until they officially anouce it. The network may have put it on the system ready for the next iPhone. But if they told a network then they would be as good as telling everyone
Giving how the cost of the iPhone 5 seems to be falling quite rapidly in price on contract and off, there could be some merit in this. May sellers and resellers want to clear their inventory in anticipation?

To be fair, they're virtually giving away the 16gb models, totally useless if you ask me. The guy in CPW the other day tried to get me to take a 16gb model, I pointed out the my current 32gb iPhone 4 has 22gb used on it, so straight away I'd have to ditch some stuff. Talk about going backwards.
Agree, I was underwhelmed by the 5 and decided to stick to my 4. I have looked at the 5 again and its ok, but I have decided to wait and see what the 6 offers. Wasn't that blown away with the Galaxy S4, so it my be the HTC One if the 6 is crap.
It's weird. I really would like a refresh of the OS on iOS, and I really like my Nexus 4, but when I used it as my main device for a couple of weeks, there were just a few niggling bits that I missed from iOS (Tweetbot was one, and the way it syncs from iPhone and iPad to update the timeline to where you've read to on either device), and iMessage. I've got a few friends who are also iPhone users and I just missed the ease of iMessaging between us all.
Other than that, the Nexus 4 is a very fine phone and I'd heartily recommend it to anyone who isn't already entrenched in Appleworld.
When you have Apple products and they all work together really well, you kind of take that for granted. You only really notice it properly when you try to move away from that.

I was talking yesterday to someone about this. someone who has ipads, iphone, mac book pro, apple tv etc. and bought an HTC one.
i agree that apple stuff works well together. and the move to android can be tricky. but there are a few points i would make:
-part of that is that apple stuff doesn't always play nicely with others and standards.
-it can be that you assume the way you've been doing things is the right way and it's just change that is the problem.
-some times apple folk are not quite in the android space. like if you don't like the email client, virtual keyboard, calendar you download another one
-if you were using google calendar, contacts, music and generally living in the android space moving to iOS would be no easier

It's just a rumour.

Agreed. Apple will never include this and even some other manufacturers are starting to move away from it.
Yes its very annoying Apple's reluctance to put a SD card slot in, even if its locked down to just photos, music, movies etc.
I wonder how long before the "Droidboys" come along to tell us all these things are available on Android devices?
All these things are available on Android:p
Some of the reasons above are why i moved away from iPhone to Android. So glad i did too.
The sheep will be out in force......:rolleyes:
That one's Tim Cook, I'm guessing that you can't get any more reliable than that...

Apple do give the networks advanced notice.
I would think iOS 7 will be announced in Jume and released probably in September along with the new iPhone.
Other than that, the Nexus 4 is a very fine phone and I'd heartily recommend it to anyone who isn't already entrenched in Appleworld.
