Should You Buy An iPhone Now, Or Wait For The Next One?

Great article by HuffPost Tech.
The most common thing I get asked whenever I tell anyone I'm a tech writer is some version of the question: "Should I get a new iPhone now, or should I wait until the next one comes out?" It is as though my business card should read not "Technology Writer," and instead "iPhone Psychic"
Not that I am not happy to prognosticate! And in that spirit, here's a look at the questions on everyone's mind: Should I buy an iPhone now? And if not now, when?
First, let me say that I am fascinated by the peculiar kind of panic that I encounter in people I meet who are deciding on a purchase date for their next Apple phone. I call it the iSenberg Uncertainty Principle: Potential iPhone buyers exist in a constant state of anxiety, perpetually worrying that purchasing an iPhone on any given day will mean that they will miss out on the inevitably cooler version with the mind-blowing new features soon down the road. The Cupertino Sword of Damocles constantly dangles over their heads, threatening to pierce them with unhipness and iShame.
Here is one solid piece of advice I can offer to help you avoid the Sword: Do not buy any new iPhone until September. Apple has an annual media conference each September, and every blog with the word 'Mac' in the title is reporting that Steve Jobs is going to do his black turtleneck thing and introduce some kind of new iPhone there. The September Media conference is generally used to present the new iPods, but as All Things Digital reports, Apple plans to "commandeer" the conference for its official iPhone announcement.
Apple is long overdue to release its new iPhone anyway, if history is any indication. Look at this handy little timeline:
June 2007: original iPhone released
June 2008: iPhone 3G released
June 2009: iPhone 3Gs released
June 2010: iPhone 4 released
June 2011: Nothing!
In other words, the 5th generation iPhone is already a month late, so it makes sense that the rumors are swirling. Apple's tardiness can be explained by the fact they've actually already released two iPhones in 2011 -- the Verizon iPhone in February and the unlocked iPhone 4 in June. Their schedule is all screwy, like a traveler trying to get over jet lag. But all signs point to them getting right with a September Apple iPhone release.
So what jaw-dropping new feature will this iPhone boast? We're hearing that the "iPhone 4S," as it is rumored to be called, won't be the dramatic re-imagining that many of us have come to expect with each new iPhone release. Tech blogThis Is My Next thinks that it will be thinner and lighter, and that it will run on a new chip; the New York Times thinks that it will be the same dimensions as the iPhone 4 but that it will be cheaper. Bloomberg agrees with This Is My Next on the chip and adds that the rear-facing camera will upgrade to 8 megapixels from 5 megapixels.
Now, even if you're just a normal, non-geek iPhone user, who doesn't care if the rear-facing camera doubles its megapixel count, or if Apple has changed the manufacturer of its data processors, or whatever, you still need to at least wait for the alleged iPhone announcement, and here's why: if history is any indicator, the introduction of a newer iPhone model is accompanied by a drop in price of older iPhone models. When the iPhone 3GS was announced, the price of the iPhone 3G dropped by $100; when the iPhone 4 was announced, the price of an iPhone 3GS also dropped by $100. Even if you know that you're not going to drop $400 on whatever iPhone Apple begins peddling in September, there is no sense in paying more money for an iPhone 4 or 3Gs now when the base price of both seem like locks to drop in two months.
But before we start fantasizing, how can we be so certain that Jobs is even going to announce an iPhone in September if Apple hasn't so much as indicated such a thing? How do we know that all of these rumors weren't just started by lonely nerds like me and my co-workers emailing each other from our mother's basements, inciting iPhone rumors all on our own?
Well, first of all, I don't live with my mother; and second of all, the new iPhone rumors have sprung forth from two reliable sources held in high journalistic regard.
The first is esteemed, award-winning tech journalist John Paczkowski of All Things Digital, who blazed iPhone prognostication trails by predicting back in April that an updated iPhone 4 would be unveiled at the September Apple music Conference and has steadfastly maintained the claim is true through June and into July. In fact, he confirmed as recently as July 5 that a shiny new iPhone looked to be in the early stages of supply chain production, and that people close to the company still believe that the new iPhone would be ready for the Jobs treatment in September.
So there is Reliable Source One.
Reliable Source Number Two is the Wall Street Journal, not exactly a one-laptop operation. The paper gives "the end of September" as a target launch date, which squares up with both Paczkowski's prediction of a September announcement and release. This doesn't even mention This Is My Next's separate prediction of a September release, nor 9to5Mac reporting that there are going to be two new iPhones in September, one low-end and high-end. But now we're falling down the rabbit hole and into the basement again, so let's focus:
There is likely to be a new iPhone in September. It will likely affect the price of all the other iPhones. The iPhones available now -- the iPhone 4 and the iPhone 3Gs -- will probably be cheaper in two months. Unless you drop your current iPhone in a pool, a bathtub or a volcano, do not buy an iPhone until Steve Jobs opens his beautiful brilliant mouth at the Apple conference in early September. When the post-turtleneckian dust settles, we'll have a clearer picture of whether or not this rumored new iPhone is worth the money. And then we can talk about--well, whether or not you should buy an iPhone now, or wait until the next one comes out.
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/07/12/iphone-release-5-september_n_896345.html

Apple has two prototypes out testing now. One is a thinner totally redesigned case. The problem with it is that Foxconn can't seem to build it. Hence the delay. The other prototype uses the existing case, but with updated (read dual core) internals. If they can get production up by September the first phone will be released and will be the iPhone 5. If they cannot, then the second prototype will be released as the iPhone 4GS.

With the new ipad coming out soon, why should I buy the ipad 2?

with the new ipad coming out soon, why should I buy the ipad 2?

I can only echo what Pogo says about buying based on what it does today.
3 weeks ago I bought a Mac Mini. A new Mac Mini model has been rumoured to come out anywhere between the same week I made my purchase and the end of August. None's been released as yet.
I wanted one in the week of June that I bought mine so I bought it based on the fact that it did what I wanted and I couldn't imagine anything which could be added that I'd want - my MacBook Pro doesn't have Thunderbolt so the most likely addition isn't really going to be much use for me.
Basically you have to buy what you what based on what's out at the the time.
I can promise that within seconds of the iPad3 being released, the web will be full of rumours about the next one!

For me, presonall, becasue the Mac will run OS X, while the windows machine will run, well, Windows. Seriously, whenever given the option, I greatly prefer to use OS X over windows without hesitation. I buy Apple hardware because I prefer OS X to Windows and have since the OS X public beta. Apple hardware is very good quality, but so are many Windows PC (Lenovo IMO makes some great hardware, if picking a Windows machine).
I use windows at work because that's what they give me, but I'd not pick it if given the choice.

Why Should I Buy Another Mac Book Pro

I purchased a Mac Titanium Powerbook back in the day when it was so fresh and new, big bucks. Within 2 years the logic board began freezing all the time. It was fixed with big bucks again. 2 years later the laptop began doing the same thing, freezing up and so I went along with the extremely annoying issue.
When the Mac Book Pro came out I decided to start fresh with a new computer, with big bucks of course. Guess what happened 2 years later as i lived in another town, took it to another Mac repair place. They told me the Logic board was dead. So after big bucks I replaced it, so rediculous. And now, 2 years later it is freezing again, not only that, I can't connect to my wifi anywhere I want to in my own place with my own internet. I have to walk to certain spots in my place so my Mac Book Pro will communicate with my router that always worked with the new Mac Book Pro since day 1. But, after these updates Apple puts out to better the system, at some time it borked my internet connection. Reading these boards and seeing similar problems with other Apple users and seeing there is no solution is decerning. Then seeing a new security update from Apple about detecting virus popups and nothing addressing it's wifi issue is the last straw for me.
My wife bought a Toshiba 4 years ago and we put win7 on it when it came out since vista is disgusting. There isn't one problem with her laptop, nothing. And you can run still get on the internet with a laptop that runs win98. I cant even load a page when I get on my Mac Titanium Powerbook, that has to be connected to the internet via ethernet cable becuase detecting wifi on that is something that never occured, even though it should.
I am on the fence, Mac vs PC? Pricey vs Something that breaks less?
So why should I buy another Mac computer?

I don't think the experiences of a place where people discuss problems is necesarily an indicator of the overall populace using the product. Just as if you went to a hospital, you could not ascertain the relative overall health of everyone who is not in the hospital.
Statistically, you are probably an ideal candidate for a MBP, as it is extremely unlikely that you would have another problem of similar character. That is of course assuming that nothing you are doing is cutting short the life expectancy of your computers.
I am on my 4th MB variant, and have only had one major issue, which was handled terrifically by Apple. However, I am not entirely without worry that an electromechanical device nmade by humans can't fail. That is why I also have had AppleCare on everything.
But we differ in one great respect, I think. I figure that any computer i buy has a maximum life expectancy of 3 years. I have never used a computer longer than that, and I am routinely trading up within that time period. This time will be different though. I've only had my MBA for a little over 6 months, and It can't come any sooner that I'll move to the new one in about a month, if it nears my expectations.
Don't get me wrong, I respect the value you place on longevity. But I really think that unless your activities are especially harsh in a physical manner on your computers, then it is unlikely you will have the same experience once more. I do beleive that the current units are as good or better than anything Apple has had in their notbooks, in terms of quality.
But it is your decision,, that should be based on ALL facts and not just the experiences of those who visit a help forum.

Where Should I Buy The iPhone?

I'm Thinking of going to the apple store to purchase my iPhone, will the apple store have the iPhone in stock? Or should i buy online.

I was in the same predicament this week. I had sold my Nexus One thinking I could find the iPhone 4 in stock since my brother bought his days before from an Apple Store. The first day I called all AT&Ts (only pre-order), Best Buys (out of stock), Radio Shacks(dude said they dont sell them), Walmarts (no stock for two weeks), and of course Apple Stores (they get "daily" shipments but don't know how many) in my area with no luck. The second day in the morning, frustrated I was about to order one online from ATT (a 7-10 business day wait) when I decided to start calling again....sure enough around 11am I called the closest store (for the second time that day, I had called at opening time 10am) they had them BUT only the 32GB.
Thinking I would have to wait days if not weeks for the 16GB I went ahead and bought it. Then one day after that I called out of curiousity again, and what do you know! They had both 16GB and 32GB! So I went in and exchanged the 32GB I had bought the day before.
_Moral of the story: Best chance is to call Apple Stores everyday at least twice a day_. By noon they will know whether they have them or not for the day. They get daily shipments.
TOTAL WAIT TIME: 2 days for 32GB, 3 days for 16GB (my preference).

Why should I buy another macbook?

Apple is incredible with both their software and the physical design of their products. HOWEVER, since owning my macbook which is three years old I have already had to replace the battery, my wife has also had to replace her macbook battery, and now my friend with a 1 year old macbook pro is having battery issues and needs a replacement. In addition, now my OS won't even boot up. This is so dissappointing because I previously had a dell laptop that I got 6 years out of never needing a new battery or having it cease to start up till it's last day. I don't mind paying more for a superior product but my macbook experience has not been superior with regards to performance. As much as I like apple I'm ready to get a PC laptop for half the price and without such a consistant record for battery failures and limited years of use.
I know apple care is out there but I take incredible care of my belongings and computers. I have yet to need insurance on any electronic item I have ever owned due to personal misuse and find it wrong on principle that I would need to buy it because a manufacturer has a track record of regular manufacturing problems.
Is anyone else dissappointed with long term use of apple products? The online forums are full of these battery and OS loading issues, which further discourages me. Anyone else considered or left apple and moved to PC? Why should I continue to buy another product from them? Anyone switched from Apple's OS to Ubuntu?
-Jason

As a PC veteran of 11yrs, I switched to Mac last year and got my first Macbook Pro in August 2010. I must say, after using Snow Leopard for almost a year, I am NEVER going back to PC. Honestly, I feel if you want to switch back to PC because of price, that's ok. But switching over reliaility issues w/ Macbook Pro, I can't agree on.
I would like to start by saying I DON"T WORK FOR APPLE
Now, the new Lion is coming out next month which is going to bring over 250 feautures to the Mac and even more stable.
Plus, statics show that over time, Mac computers last 3 to 4 times the average PC life span. I too can vouch on this as a PC user of 11 yrs.
My leaving apple, you leave 1 Cutstomer support, a company known for the best is build quality, and the most Advanced operating system on the planet.
I would advice you to take a look at the preview of " WINDOWS 8 ".
Moreover, I recently updated my 2010 13" Macbook Pro to a 2011 13" one and I can concur that you WILL NOT be disaapointed with the New Sandy Bridge implemented in the New Macs. Plus due to Mac AWESOME resale value, I was able to sell my old 13" one on eBay for $1099.
Tell me which PC sells for that much
The choice is urs.

Why Should I Buy A Macbook?

Hi i have always wanted an Apple Mac-book i don't know why and i don't know which one to get. Any Ideas.I have viasted the Apple store and i the very helpful staff suggested i buy a Mac-book Air ( Is this the right choice) I am asking you Apple helpers and experts to help as i have no idea were to start although i do now what i would want to use it for.
Film-making and DVD watching ( Although the Mac-book air comes with no disc drive but a add for £65 is it worth it)
Photo Editing and Viewing ( 13 inch is the only air model to come with a SD slot)
General ( Word,Excel and the everyday things )
Music and iTunes and traveling
With all that in mind what memory should i buy as a 13 inch with 256 GB is £999 not including the accessorizes and the DVD player plugin
Thank you in advance to anyone who answers my questions

One of the first things you mentioned is movie creation and watching DVD's.
You might consider purchasing the older but still available mid 2012 13.3" MacBook Pro model 9,2 that includes both built-in DVD and an SD card slot.
The benefits are that you would not need to carry a separate DVD drive, and the 9,2 is one of the few remaining Mac computers still designed to permit the end user to open the computer and self-install higher capacity RAM and replace the internal hard disk or SSD drive with a higher capacity model in the future.
The penalties are that model 9,2 weighs substantially more (about 4.5 pounds/2.0kg, versus 3.5 pounds/1.6kg for the MacBook Pro with Retina Display, and 3 pounds/1.4kg for the MacBook Air), has shorter battery life, lower resolution 13.3" 1280x800 screen, slower WiFi ('802.11n') and has less peak processor performance. If you are a student and carrying it around daily in a backpack, the shorter battery life and extra weight probably negate any benefit of a built-in DVD drive. If the computer will 'live' primarily on a desktop, then extra weight and shorter battery life are probably not a concern.
If you select a MacBook Air or Retina MacBook Pro, I'd purchase it with at least 8GB RAM installed, not 4GB.
RAM in these two models is soldered in at the factory and simply not designed to be upgraded, ever. In my opinion, 4GB is not enough to ensure that future OS X upgrades will run well.
I'd select a minimum internal storage drive of 256GB. SSD is preferable for a computer that will be transported frequently, although my son carried a mid-2009 MacBook Pro with a 500GB internal hard drive through 4 years of college without incident.
I'd also immediately plan to purchase a 500GB or 1TB or larger USB-attached portable external hard drive to hold music, photos, and movies. I'd also suggest purchasing a 2TB or larger external USB or Thunderbolt-attached desktop hard drive exclusively for Time Machine backups. Yes, those two items add to the total cost, but both are fairly essential to the long-term use and enjoyment of your system. By keeping music, photo, and movie libraries on an external drive, you needn't pay a premium price for the huge amount of internal storage that those collections will eventually grow to fill. And the price of external drives keeps dropping, so when you DO fill one, you can purchase a larger one and transfer your existing libraries.
Apple sells refurbished MacBook Pros (and most other recent Apple devices) that are identical to brand new products, have the same 1-year full AppleCare warranty, and are typically priced at savings from 5% to 15% or greater, directly from the Apple website.
Although no MacBook Pro 9,2 models are currently listed, the UK link to the Apple Refurbished models is:

Should i buy an iphone 4s or wait for the iphone 5 to come out

hi, just wanted to know if i should buy an iphone 4s or simply wait for the iphone 5 to come out... Do you know what is going to be new on the iphone? is there going to be another iPhone?

We only know what information Apple has released. The only real thing released is iOS 6 will be out in the Fall. We have heard no official announcement as to the date of that release, nor have we received any announcement of the release of a new iPhone, no matter what they want to call it. Your decision to purchase a phone has to be based on your need at the time and what is available.

Should I buy the iPhone 5 or the iPod 5 and keep my phone?

Right now I have this phone
It's considered a smartphone, so I have the minimum data contract (300MB I think?) with Verizon. I had the iPod Touch 4, but sold it to raise money for my purchase. My main usage for my iPod was music, apps, email, safari, youtube and picture/video taking. My main worry is that I'll go over my data plan if I continue my previous usage. I'm always surrounded by wifi on my college campus though. So should I buy the new iphone and potentially have to get a bigger data plan, or the new ipod 5 and keep my old phone plan?
Thanks guys. First post, so I apologize if I did this wrong.

Toss a coin

Should i buy the iphone with an At&t contract

Hey guys, I just wanted to know if I should sign an At&t contract when i buy an iPhone from a local apple store. can I buy it without signing one? and if I got it from apple online store, should I also sign an At&t contract.
Please tell me the best way to get an iPhone without signing an At&t contract.
thnx guys

You can get around not signing a contract with at&t however if you do so then you will not be able to use visual voice mail "big loss". however if you do unlock iphone using a hack off of the Internet it voids your warranty and i think it might be illegal in some states but don't know cus i from the UK. However without signing with at&t there is no warranty and if your iphone breaks as quite a few have, e.g. the screen no longer responding or whatever you will have to shell out all that $399 again so it is your choice but personally i would just sign the contract.
Hope this helps.

Should I buy the iPhone 5 now or wait until September?

It's July now and apple usually announces a new iPhone is September should I get the iPhone 5 now or wait until September?

No one but Apple knows when (or if) Apple will release a new iPhone. That being said, Apple has released a new iPhone every year for 6 years straight. If you think you want the newest iPhone, wait a few months and see what happens this year.

At the age of 11, should i buy a Iphone 5 or a Ipad 2?

I am at the age of 10. Soon i will become 11 and my dad promised me that he would get me a Iphone or whatever. First, i did want a Iphone but now to think of it, i am also kind of interested, especially the Ipad 2. And now, i cant decide which one i want for my B'day. That why i was wondering if maybe people could give me some ideas on what to buy. Here are some Pro's and cons about the Ipad and Iphone:
Pro's on Ipad:
Its got a big screen
You can do lots of things on it
you can engrave on it
Its a bit cheaper then the Iphone 5.
Cons of Ipad:
It is very big to carry round
you cant call on it
you cant text on it
It hasnt got as many things that you can do on Iphone
Pros of Iphone:
It's well put together
You can do lots and lots of things on it
It's faster then Ipad even though it is much thinner and smaller
you can easily use it with 1 hand
I can technically take it anywhere i want.
Cons of Iphone:
It is kind of more expensive then the Ipad
It could break quite easily if it fell on the floor as it is very thin
As you can see, i have got more Pro's on the Iphone then the Ipad and less cons on the Iphone then on the Ipad. My parents think that i should get a Ipad but i am not sure. As you can see, im stuck now. Please help me out and write your ideas in the answer box. Thank you

Neither! You should go for the iPad mini instead. Seeing that you're barely turning 11, the size should give you enough screen estate. It's better than an iPad2 in terms of specs and plus it's then both!
But to be honest, you're still too young to be carrying anything that's more than $50 dollars in value. However, seeing that you're only ten yet able to log in the Apple Support Community and post something that is fairly well written and thought out (with bullet points!), I guess you're capable of taking care of such a device.
Enjoy your birthday and your present (whatever it may happen to be)!

HT204370 Why should I buy the movie in English and in my language (Slovak) as a separate purchases?

Here is a screen shot from my iPhone. There is finaly a movie Brave available but if I want to have both audio versions I will have to spent twice 16,99 EUR.
I prefer the English but for kids Slovak is essential. Any ideas how should I proceed?

In case you haven't figured it out from everyone else's posts, you don't need to spend $30 per month for the 3G. If you don't need it most of the time, and only really want to use it for trips, then you just sign up for the service for when the trip starts, pay for a single month ($15 or $30 depending on how much you plan on using the 3G service). I don't think you even need to remember to cancel the plan after the road trip ... I think you can have it automatically terminate if that is what you want.
I'm buying a 3G version, and I will either not sign up for any plan, or sign up for the $15 per month plan for most of the time. Before a trip when I think I will be using the 3G service more often, I will probably sign up for unlimited for that month only.
If you are on the fence, it is probably worth the $130.
Ron
p.s. One more benefit that is a big deal for me that a lot people aren't talking about is the GPS. I think the iPad will be a great portable GPS unit, and the WiFi only versions do not have GPS capabilities. With multi-tasking, I think that more interesting GPS like apps will be available this fall as well. I think it would be great to have the iPad log GPS locations, and then when you transfer photos to your iPad, it could automatically encode them with the GPS locations.

Where should I buy my iphone?

I usually buy stuff on Amazon, but since iphone 4 isn't for sale there, what is the best place to buy it? Should I go with AT&T for my phone service?

I would try Apple as well. And you would have to go with AT&T for your phone service.

Why should I buy an iPhone 6?
