iPhone 6 Release Date Rumors: Analysts Predict New Apple Smartphone Early Next Year

I just got an iphone 4s, no way I'm even beginning to think about 6.....I usually get the phone one model back....to expensive when they come out...

I think Sculley was really talking about once a year releases, six months apart, of iPhone and iPads. So let's say a spring release of an iPad, and a fall release of an iPhone. The market (in the U.S. at least) is fast becoming saturated with smartphones, so their sales will slowly begin to level off and a once a year release will make the most sense at that point - especially since most people are in 2-year contracts where they can't replace their phones more often than every other year without paying huge penalties.

This is insane. This is why I don't buy apple products. You would have to be a ridiculously rich apple fanboy to own every single gadget they put out with MEDIOCRE updates to give it a new number. It's downright ridiculous.

With a face like that I am not sure if you are being serious or not there Jeff.

Not every or even many Apple consumers do that. When you buy an Apple product ... like any other ... you have to think a little about where it is in its evolution and whether you can make use of it as it is or not. Chasing some ideal of perfection is silly, but you can do it with any tech product or anything else.

Apple gets it's high ratings and loyalty from consumers by making products that provide value, pure and simple. If they did not they would eventually fade away ... and like lots of tech companies the might just well fade away anyway.

Producing tech is hard and the target is constantly moving. To criticize Apple because it is trying to stay ahead or keep up seems foolish to me ... the opposite of "fan boy" whatever that means, to "attack dog".

I can come up with many criticisms of Apple stuff, and have written Apple many ideas for how they can improve, but I buy quite a bit of Apple stuff because they work for me.

The first iMac I got was the first really useful computer I ever had. Anything I wanted to do I could do. I tried video editing on PCs for years, but on Macs its really easy and paths to get as complex as you want. Programming, scanning, printing, or anything else works great.

The speed of tech development is not something you can lay at Apple's doorstep, and if they could not stay up we would not even be talking about Apple.

Even so.. you can have your apple products. I couldn't afford anything they dump out to begin with because they insist on being expensive. You can tell they aren't targeting for middle or lower class. (mind you I am middle class that doesn't have to depend on SSI, Public Aid, Welfare checks, etc.)

I don't even own an iPhone. I have the iPad 2, the iPod 3 and the iPod 4 (I think?). I couldn't keep up with their constant pushing of products. It's obvious that they're just thinking sales. It was obvious when they came out with that useless iPad Mini.

I love my iPad Mini .... it's the perfect size.

iPhone 6 will probably be Quarter 3, possibly a iPhone 5S in between Mobile World Congress and CES, which is only a month away! Also, I think Apple will be stepping into the TV scene very soon, I feel like they're a little upset that Samsung are doing so well in the smartphone space, so to combat that they're going to hurt Samsung's sales in the TV space. only my opinion though

I think this post is a fake ... the apple does not usually release devices one after another.

they do, and they have to or they will go out of business. the reason they are successful is that they can integrate their products with each other so they build on each other. nothing is perfect, but Apple put together a product space and an infrastructure that they own that helps people be productive. i don't see why people blame them for this?

I got an iPhone4 when they came out after being really pleased with the iMac desktop I have. The thing is awesome, it takes up little room on my desktop, it is all bundled together, totally dead silent and has the biggest screen of any computer I've ever had. The iPhone4 worked with it superbly, and so recently I upgraded to an iPhone5 for the faster speed the better camera, the GPS, better screen.

Maybe I should not have gotten the iPhone4 and waited for the iPhone5, but I don't regret it because having that thing in my pocket and being able to use it in my daily life so often is worth it. It is a pain to have to upgrade, but I cannot let myself go nuts over the upgrades.

I think the programming for IOS will become too complex if they release too many devices. Once a year or some other predictable release interval would be good, then at least customers can have some ability to predict whether to wait or not.

I got the iPhone5 because I needed the upgrades that it had. I don't see what could tempt me to upgrade again for quite a while ... but maybe I could be wrong, I'm happy with the 5. Apple has to avoid competing with and tripping over itself.
