Apple iPhone 5 Not Announced, Fans Voice Displeasure

Apple's big Let's Talk iPhone event announced a new iPhone 4S with faster download speeds, a better camera, and a voice assistant named Siri, but still left many disappointed the company didn't unveil a new iPhone 5.

The hype going into the event -- Apple's first with Tim Cook as CEO -- centered on a brand new iPhone 5 and not simply an upgrade of the preexisting iPhone 4. Despite announcing quite a few upgrades to the iPhone 4, Apple fans quickly took to social media platforms to air their displeasure in the lackluster announcement.

Here are a few of the most interesting comments on Twitter about Apple's announcement:

AlexGillbanks #iphone4s Feeling underwhelmed... but will probably get one anyway because my phone is on it's deathbed

clarkcosta #iphone4s love the specs but a little disappointed the designs the same.

thehawk999 It's not the phone that disappoints, it's Phill Schiller's wet-blanket approach to presenting #iphone4s #BuzzyMcBuzzkill

EricaBigelow completely let down by Apple's launches announced today. I'm going to be SO mad if the iPod Classic is discontinued.#iphone4s
