With speculation mounting on release date and iPhone 5 features, the team here at Apple-Newz decided to put together a list of the features that we believe will make it onto the new iPhone 5.
FaceTime HD – A feature that the team here at Apple Newz will make it the iPhone 5 is FaceTime HD (720p). Recently a leaked Box for the upcommign MacBook Pro made an appearance on the internet and industry experts along with our team here at Apple Newz believe it is very likely it will make its way to the next product refreshes of the iPhone and iPad, that being the iPhone 5 and iPad 2 or with the release of iOS 5. Only time will tell but the with announcement of the iPad 2 just around the corner we may soon see.
iPhone 5 Wireless Syncing (AirSync) – As mentioned in an earlier article at Apple Newz today we believe a variation of AirSync will make its way to the iPhone 5 and iPad 5 with iOS5. Imagine being able to sync with your iTunes via Wifi or 3G, files, videos, music, It would be a welcomed feature.
iPhone 5 Near-field Communication (NFC) – This feature is already integrated into Google’s Android and some Nokia models and would allow you to pay for items via Pay Pass/Mobile Pay or to start your car. This technology is still young so it may not make it onto the iPhone 5 however some well known industry speculators are betting on it being in the next refresh.
iPhone 5 64 Gb Storage – An iPhone 5 with larger capacity is defiantly on the cards, with the price of memory continually dropping and these devices doing more and more it is only natural that we will see the iPhone 5 or perhaps the iPhone 6 with 64 Gb of storage.
iPhone 5 Light Peak – Light Peak is an optical interface by Intel that has been designed to replace current bus standard including SCSI , SATA, USB, FireWire, PCIX. With a transfer rate of of around 10 Gbit/s (and up to 100 Gbit/s in future) it’s easy to see why this standard has been touted as been in the next gen MacBook Pro as well as the iPhone 5 and iPad 2. Will it make it? In reality maybe on the next gen MacBook Pro and maybe not until the iPhone 6 and iPad 3.
Multi carrier support (CDMA / GSM /UTMS / 4G LTE) – Some of the biggest gripes from potential customers are for its multi-carrier support, Apple Newz believes this will be addressed with the iPhone 5 including seeing an iPhone 5 4G LTE.
iPhone 5 ARM A8 for Faster Performance – There have been a few rumours around the internet that the iPhone 5 will feature a ew ARM Cortex A8 processor as well as and SGX543 for better graphics performance. Apple-Newz believe the ARM Cortex A8 processor will be in the next iPhone 5, however we are not so sure about the SGX543 graphics processor, it just seems a little too much
iPhone 5 extended battery life – Some pendants are saying the iPhone 5 will 14 hours of talk time on 3G and 7 hours on 4G but we think this is all hype and think batter life will be extended in the next model but by no more than 20%.
iPhone 5 Larger 4 inch screen/display – Another recent rumour that we would like to believe it an upgrade from the current 3.5 inch screen to a 4 inch screen,
With the expected announcement of the iPhone 5 just a few months away in June, it’s really not long before we learn which of the above features are myth and with are true, however we will get a glimpse of what will be available when the iPad 2 is expected to be announced on 2 March 2011.

Thanks for this great post, I am hoping that we will see a larger display on the iPhone 5 as well as NFC additional storage and finally the Light Peak or Thunderbolt as its has been named on the new MacBook Pro models.
As for the other features you mention they would all be nice but we have to be realistic and I believe the features i have mentioned are the ones that will most likley be included based on the plausability of the recent rumours that on the internet.
If the iPone 5 improves its camera to at least 12 mega pixal I will convert from Nokia
