New iPhone Rumor States New iPhone Coming In June

Password = 1234

The new iPad has arrived and now the rumor mill is in full force again claiming that we could have a new iPhone launch in June of this year. It seems that a recruiter for Foxconn which is Apple�s primary iPhone, iPad and iPod touch manufacturer has been recorded on a Japanese TV program stating that Apple will release its next generation iPhone as early as June of this year.

The World Business Satellite aired this footage on Monday where the recruiter is said to have stated that Foxconn is looking for 18,000 employees for the fifth generation iPhone. When he was asked if the high number was due to high demand for the iPhone 5, he said that�s right, the new iPhone will come out in June.

If this latest rumor is to be believed it would mean that the iPhone 4S has only been given a mere 8 months of shelf life and the iPhone 4S is still selling millions. This doesn�t really seem like a logical move on Apple�s part. If we also take into account that Apple made a fortune by capturing the holiday shoppers in 2011 moving a launch date back to the summer would be counterproductive. Another thing that makes this rumor unbelievable is why would a recruitment consultant have been told such sensitive information. We all know that Apple likes to keep things secret and leave the world guessing right up until the last minute.

While many have dubbed the next iPhone the iPhone 5 this could in fact be the sixth generation after the release of the unnamed new iPad so we could actually see it being named the iPhone 6. Whatever happens, this really does seem like a farfetched rumor and one that is not likely to have much weight. If there is a new iPhone to be released this year it will probably be in September/October and not June but as always we will just have to wait and see.
