I thought there was always face detection with the 4S?

Does it bring it to the 4?

Apple's new iPhone will use bigger 4.6-inch display: report

Reuters) - Apple Inc's new iPhone will have a sharper and bigger 4.6-inch "retina" display and is set to be launched around the second quarter, a South Korean media reported on Thursday.

Sales of the iPhone, first introduced in 2007 with the touch screen template now adopted by its rivals, account for around half Apple's total sales.

Apple has decided on the bigger 4.6-inch display for its next iPhone and started placing orders to its suppliers, the Maeil Business Newspaper said, quoting an unnamed industry source.

Its major display suppliers LG Display and Samsung Electronics Co declined to comment.

Samsung, which is also the biggest challenger to Apple in smartphones, uses 4.6-inch OLED display for its flagship Galaxy S II smartphone, introduced in April last year.

The high-definition "retina" display--containing several times as many pixels within the same area-- is used in the latest iPad released earlier this month.

The latest iPhone 4S was introduced in October last year.

What is the easiest way to copy photos from a pc into the camera roll folder on an iphone? I know i can easily make a folder and sync it through itunes but it'd be nice if i could dump the photos into the camera roll folder rather than have a second folder.

According to their sources, the new iPhone will be 4G LTE compatible, as expected. It will also be arriving in the fall, though the exact date will be determined close to the time. Finally, their source also claims that contrary to 4-inch rumors, the new iPhone will retain the same 3.5-inch screen, or very close to it.

So to sum up, iPhone 5,1 is on track for:

- Similar if not same sized screen (currently 3.5-inch but not set in stone)
- 4G LTE radio
- New “micro dock” connector
- Fall/October 2012 release
iMore had previously reported that they believe the new iPhone will carry a miniaturized dock connector to help reduce the overall size of the iPhone, itself.

iMore has recently been the source of some accurate information. Most recently, they pinpointed the announcement date for the iPad 3 and LTE support.

^ huh? When you connect your iPhone, a folder opens up with DCIM.. drop your pics in there.. rza..commmmoooonn..

Or do you mean custom folders to show up on your iPhone? The structure of tagging on iPhone itself wont let you do that... cause it sucks

Yeah.. I dunno..

I'm sure most of what we are hearing now about the new iPhone is pretty much speculation/hopes or rumors. If the release date of Oct. is to be believed, then I doubt we will hear much of anything in the way of actual facts, at least for a few more months..

With that said, I am due for an upgrade and am not sure if I want to wait till October. My daughter has her eyes on my phone and I don't think I could put her off till October.

Oh wait, I did know that but I didn't try copying/pasting photos to it I have always copied photos FROM that folder and never tried copying pics TO it. I had already synced a folder and was trying to figure out how to move the pics but the synced folder doesn't show up in explorer as the DCIM folder does so I was baffled. I was over complicating the whole process! I'll give it a whirl tonight.

IIRC they can get around this requirement by including a 30-pin dock connector to mini-USB adapter with the phone.

I was worried I was going to get the thermal shutdown warning it was getting so warm.

Ended up doing a little better when I switched to edge. I used the "Mark the Spot" app to tell ATT to fix this shit

I take it you've never been to a large convention or event before?

Shit happens all the time with the massive amounts of people using the network at the same time.


My 4 gets warm/hot a lot in the subway tunnels during my commute and in areas of downtown San Francisco with poor reception/overloaded network

That Angry Birds Space is actually really cool. I thought it'd be another iteration of the series but they've changed up the rules a little bit. Well done

My goodness, I'm currently over seas and I'm using my 4GB iPhone. Dang this thing is slow compared to the 4. And the non retina display makes me not want to use this, it's much more diffcult to read websites and stuff.

I shouldve JB my 4 and unlocked it before I left the US.
