The latest project of Steve Jobs: iPhone 5

Ashok Kumar, an analyst at Rodman & Renshaw, shared his thoughts in a recent publication on the expected number of next-generation iPhone, better known as the iPhone 5. According to him, 4S model was not the last project he was working on Steve Jobs. He took part in the creation of the iPhone 5 at all stages, from the very idea to the final design. That is why it is expected that Jobs' participation in the development of the new iPhone will make a cult.

According to Ashoka, the new iPhone will be even thinner. The screen resolution will remain the same, but its size will increase. Most likely, the new model will support the 3GPP Long Term Evolution data transfer technology (LTE), a well-known name of the 4G standard, to which this technology is enabled.

Another source reports the changes in the appearance of the new iPhone, with an emphasis on the "complete redesign" of the new device in comparison with the recently released model iPhone 4S. According to him, most recently, Steve was more involved in it work on the iPhone 5 than on the 4S. This can be explained by the fact that the iPhone 4S in comparison to its predecessor, has no external changes, and all the differences boil down to an improvement in the technical component.

Judging by the publications Ashoka, the debut of the iPhone 5 can take place in the summer of 2012. At this time, will be Apple's developer conference.
