2011 Predictions: White iPhone 4, iOS 5.0, iPad 2, iPhone 5

With 2011 among us, that only means one thing….it is time to look forward to the white iPhone 4, the iPhone 5, the second-generation iPad, and iOS 5.0!

White iPhone 4

The white iPhone 4 is like the unicorn of the Apple world. The device was made but never released due to numerous problems with the white casing and camera lens. In recent months however, Apple has confirmed that the device will be out by Spring 2011, but that means we’ll be getting an iPhone 4 that is almost a year old with a new iPhone coming this summer!

With 2011 here, we will finally find out the status of the elusive white iPhone 4.

iPhone 5

iPhone 5. The name strikes happiness and joy into the hearts of Apple fans. Imagine what it could bring:

  • Higher resolution display
  • 32GB/64GB storage sizes
  • Thinner design
  • Faster processor
  • Black/White colors
  • Shaver
  • Higher resolution cameras
  • New features such as using the iPhone as a modem
  • Coffee Maker
  • 4G speeds

Imagine the possibilities!
