Meh.

Apple could have done a lot better than this.

Apple also announced new Ipod Nano and Ipod Touch. There is also a redesigned headphone - EarPods

apple should patent that 5th row of icons and the letterbox screen, thats evolutionary

the features above should have made it to iPhone 4S in the first place.

Incremental "improvement". Apple is more concerned with profit margins than innovation. A6 is only a duo-core...

**** that! not really that different than the 4s. my iphone4 broke recently and didn't buy a new one since the iphone5 is about to come out but now i'd rather buy the 4s when the 5 comes out in the market since it will be cheaper and the difference won't be that much. why would they change the charger, that's a pretty stupid move. oh and the all new less shitty earphones compared to the old one but still a piece of crap. wtf is a nano sim and why did they need to change the sim? steve jobs should rise from his grave and slap the **** out of who ever created the iphone5.

How big is the "bigger screen"?
Is it now the same as GS3?

Beside having an all new "Lightning" plug...

iPhone 5 confirmed to use nano-SIM, current SIMs not compatible

By Jon Fingas posted Sep 12th 2012 3:10PM While Apple was busy announcing the iPhone 5, it left out mention of whether the device would use the recently approved (and Apple-designed) nano-SIM standard. Sure enough, the leaks were right once more -- Apple is relying on that even tinier subscriber module for GSM, HSPA and LTE networks. The company also makes clear that there's no going back, so you'll have to chuck your earlier micro-SIM card if you've got one. Such is the price of progress.

So even if you'll have the first IPhone 5 in the Philippines, you won't be able to use it since no local carrier have this sim, right OB?
