I expect that this voice assistant will quickly make its way into laptops and desktops as well. Apple’s competitive advantage is widening by the day,” Jason Schwarz, an Apple follower and investor said. Apple is likely to add 1GB of RAM to the iPhone 5 in order to accommodate the voice assistant.

With iOS 5 comes iCloud, the iPhone 5 users are allowed to store their music, photos, apps, and contacts on the cloud and push them to a number of wireless devices. Bundled with the basic iCloud service is Photo Stream, which allows users to store 1,000 photos on the iCloud servers for free.

Obviously, under major horsepower provided by this dual-core chip, the iPhone 5 should be able to run more apps.

In addition, a liquid aluminum material rather than glass, would perfectly increase durability and cut down on the iPhone 5’s weight.

7. 8-Megapixel Camera

A dual-LED flash unit, separated from the camera sensor, would also be a reason the iPhone 5 get popular. Like some of the current high-end smartphones, It is likely to feature a front-facing 2-megapixel camera for video conferencing.

8. Bigger Memory

Apple will increase the capacity of the RAM memory storage of iPhone 5 to 1GB. The ROM can also be upgraded since both the iPad 2 and iPod Touch boast 64GB of memory. A 64 GB ROM can be very possible for iPhone 5.

9. 4G Compatibility

Rumors said there is high possibility of the iPhone 5 being available on Verizon’s 4G LTE network.
