Well people, it is safe to say that Apple's iPhone 5 is sold out and
its not even the been released! On Friday it was reported that in a very
short times the order started kicking in once the device was presented
on September the 12th. Soon enough we had reports that the iPhone 5 was sold out
from the official website. This latest turn of events has made Apple's
stocks sky rocket and its shares record high! Along with a series of
legal deputes that Apple has won against Samsung, Motorola and Google
this seems like a very good year for Apple and the iPhone 5 comes like a
cherry at the top!

The order via the online store are closed for the time being and those
who have ordered the the new iPhone 5 can expect to get their latest
tech gadget on September the 28th, a full week after it gets released
into the open market via carriers and shops.
"The initial batch is sold out," said Shaw Wu, an analyst at
Sterne Agee & Leach Inc, indicating that there will no doubt me more
goodies and offers from Apple for the iPhone 5.
While experts are saying that the iPhone 5 isn't selling as fast as the
previous model but that does not necessary mean that Apple won't be
earning a lot of revenue. In fact, it is expected that 58 million of the
latest iPhone 5 devices may be sold out by the end of the year. This
would generate as much as $36.2 billion in sales for the mobile industry giant, Apple.
For
all of the sales success that the iPhone 4 and 4S enjoyed in the past
years, the iPhone 5 is set to dwarf their sales numbers — in the
short-term, at least.
After the stunning push-back of the ship date for pre-ordered iPhone 5
units just 24 hours after going on sale, we’re beginning to get a
clearer picture of what kinds of sales numbers Apple’s new iPhone is
seeing. For as much as the sales expectations for the iPhone 5 were high
before its release, the reality is that even those seemingly crazy
estimates may turn out to have been conservative. iPhone 5 Screen Size
Screens are getting bigger on
smartphones and this is no small part thanks to the Android manufactures
who seem to go by the philosophy - bigger is better, even though huge
screen (5 inches, really?) aren't that needed. If you really have a need
for so many different medias such as video, then why not get a tablet?
Settling for some sort of in between option is never a good idea
in life, so why settle for it when it comes to your devices? Even so,
Apple is losing market share as possible buyers choose other options
over their iPhone because of the screen size. This time around, it seems
that Apple wants to put their foot down and get back on the leader role
on market.

For this
reason, the old 3.5 inch screen size may soon be replaced with a 4.6
inch screen. A huge change to Apple's legacy and what Steve Jobs used to
tell us? Perhaps, but maybe this new change is better. Fans of Apple's
products will probably not mind the bigger screen sizes, and if they
stated their disappointment then Apple could easily come up with a 3.5
inch model of the product as well. One of the more interesting things is
that the new screen size would certainly bring a brand new design that
would step away from the classic minimalism design of the iPhone we are
used to. So what will the iPhone 5 look like, any ideas? Well, only a
few...
