Apple Unveils Faster, Thinner iPhone 5 With 4-Inch Retina Display, LTE Support

Apple unveiled the new iPhone 5 today as it hopes to answer the question that’s been top of mind for everyone from users to analysts to rivals: Is it a big enough change in design and does it have exciting enough new features to get people – tens of millions of people — to buy it and hold competitors including Google and Samsung at bay? If you ask the analysts, the answer is yes. They’re going by the uptake in iPhone sales after each new update was released — there’s been a new model every year since former CEO Steve Jobs led Apple into the smartphone market in 2007. Last year’s iPhone 4S, which introduced Siri voice recognition technology into the device, has been a big seller for the company, especially in its fastest-growing market, China. The iPhone is Apple’s biggest moneymaker and now accounts for almost half of sales. http://www.forbes.com/sites/connieguglielmo/2012/09/12/apple-ready-to-call-up-iphone-5-live-blog/
