About one third of the US population says they will be walking around talking on new iPhone 5s within the next year. The wait and withheld release date of the new phone has created so much buzz that 35% of consumers say they want it!
Rumors have it that the iPhone 5 will be launched in September, and the wait is almost over! Statements from an anonymous Swisscom source claim that Apple will be launching the smartphone in the US on September 5 and worldwide the following month. However, that is an odd date and on a holiday weekend. There are doubts that it will be released then, but it will most likely be somewhat close to it.
Of that thirty-five percent, 7% will buy it in the first week, 14% will buy within the first month, 30% before the end of 2011, and 51% say they will have it within a year of its release. Wow!! This phone is creating a frenzy!
Consumers have some pretty high expectations for the new phone, and Apple is very unlikely to let us down. 42% of consumers are looking for a better camera, 45% a bigger display, 46% are concerned about the 4G network, 55% want a lower cost, and 59% say they want longer battery life.
The craze over the iPhone 5 is great for Apple, guaranteeing them customers and hopefully giving us satisfaction! Apple seems to be making entire movements with their products and trending all around the world.
I don’t know about you, but I’m sure hoppin’ on that iPhone train in September!
