The controversy of 2011 in the world “phone” without doubt was the big missing from version “5″, the phone 5 is expected for a long time due to different situations and this was not finally released in 2011. The versions are very different, the first indications are that Apple would not launch the phone 5 in 2011 and that as he has done with the phone 3G launched after the 3G was going to do the same with the phone 4 and presented the 4S. The second version is focused on the different parts manufacturers not arrive in time for the dates you had to launch the model and the company opted to just change some components and launch it. Another version, and personally I think is the more valid is because Steve Jobs’ illness and subsequent death. Apparently the legendary CEO of Apple had a new version of the Smartphone kept up its sleeve, then his illness was not appropriate to launch this model, which would mark a “pseudo celebration” and truly the spirits were not the best at that time.

Now we have a new rumor and say that the phone 5 is already there and would have definite date of release. The revelation of the new Smartphone from Apple will be in early June during the WWDC event, event hosted by Apple and developers focused on products the Cupertino Company. No confirmation yet on the official dates of the event but it is believed that this event will be between 10 and 15 June. The news was released by the Taiwan’s Commercial Times newspaper which in turn collected the information of a business analysis and consulting, known and very famous Daiwa Securities.

The information seems to be true under Apple has already booked the venue for those dates, so the company has already reserved the Mons cone Center between 10 and 15 June 2012, this is where traditionally happen for events Apple developers. The company still did not confirm the official dates of the event should happen in a very short time. The WWDC receives entries from around the world under this entries must begin to be marketed very antecedence so we believe that no more than a month this will be announced. Because of the possibility of launching the new phone 5 is expected that income is exhausted at high speed.

The Commercial Times newspaper did not reveal much about the phone. According to the information known to just keep your new phone touch screen glass-to-glass manufactured by two suppliers are TPK Holding and winter.

Among the new features the new phone would have a larger screen with a resolution even better protection and Gorilla Glass. Your screen would be about 4 inches and would have no edges but that this would go until the end of the laterals own design. In your processor would have a new quad core processor with more RAM, 12-megapixel camera back and front with a resolution even higher? In the hardware we have several new resources and aesthetically the model to gain some changes that have not yet been revealed.

The Apple Smartphone to be released was immense criticism for the “little” innovation that brought the product since there were already touch screen, 2 megapixel cameras were something common and several aspects were already common for the market, this happened with all versions that have been submitted by Apple to the latest phone 4S roughly nor brought any big news, such as Sire was already a known software in other mobile operating systems. So there are resources that users request daily in all forums on the world’s most famous Smartphone, for example an ultra powerful quad core processor, Near Field Communication technology and other resources. So if there is something to stand out in the phone that really has revolutionized the segment is its screen, which besides providing a touch screen interface more than attractive offers us a very interesting resolution to the Retina Display.

So the great disadvantage even though the phone’s screen has a high resistance due to treatment and materials applied on the screens without doubt this disadvantage is the missing Gorilla Glass resource. This resource is a material manufactured by Corning, the company’s North American and brought to the world in 2008, this material is a thin transparent sheet of high strength and is fabric ad to be very resistant to scratches and possible fractures on the touch screen. In 2010 this material and treatment was applied in millions of mobile phones but so far not in the phone.

In return all phones receive service of smart phones daily and 80% of cases the main problem is the breaking of the screen and of course this creates a major headache on users to pay between 150 and 250 dollars to repair this. The Gorilla Glass may now be present in the next version of the phone; apparently there is a rumor that the next phone 5 would have that feature. Meanwhile we have a company that has created something exactly the same … Now phone users can enjoy such protection, the so-called Signe’s GLAS t, this layer of glass ensures offer a resistance close to that of Gorilla Glass, it was created to avoid the risks and damage to that screen. The material resists different stripes like a key ring, scissors, knives and even the same drill.

Unlike the conventional protective films which consist of a thin plastic layer without much commitment as to the resistance or physical shocks and pressure of acute surfaces the Signe’s GLAS t is a glass layer more than interesting. This way to fix the original display of the phone we will be placing an extra layer to our device.

This protection is considerably greater than that of plastic film and adds curlier just 0.4 millimeters thick to phone 4 and 4S. The manufacturer rates the pitch and in up to three times stronger than plastic currently used in some layer of protection. Due to the increased thickness of the phone’s GLAS t Soigné some careless that they liked the phone with this protection will have a better grip on the next video we see how this protection works which is more than interesting.
