The recent product from Apple is iPhone 4S with amazing features that magnetizing the Apple fans. With the iPhone 4S out the door then the topic will pass on to the question of iPhone 5 that when iPhone 5 will find its release date? Only two things of iPhone 5 are known with any degree of confidence. It will arrive within the first three quarters of 2012 and it will arrive sometime after the iPad 3, which also won’t arrive until next year. That leaves iPhone and iPad users with only iOS 5.1, a medium significance software update to the newly released iOS 5; to look forward to before the year is over. Apple won’t be springing anymore new hardware on the market before 2011 is over. That leaves all eyes on next year for the launches and revisions of several new Apple products. Beyond merely the iPhone 5 and iPad 3, users are gazing at the launch of the iPod touch 5, Apple TV and more… have a look below at the timeframe for the iPhone 5 release date and beyond.
iPad 3: Apple’s history says you can expect this one in march 2012. In order to give it a major speed boost Apple may incorporate the next gen A6 processor into the iPad 3, with scatter reports pointing to the A6 not being ready until summer. But Apple got quite a bit of negative feedback from users for pushing the iPhone upgrade cycle back to sixteen months this year instead of the usual twelve, perhaps more backlash than the company might have expecting.

With the 4S selling very well for now, Apple could opt to wait till summer 2012 However, if the iPhone 5 is ready sooner and if 4S sales drop off, Apple could fire up the 5 sooner. Just don’t expect it before April. iPhone 4S sales are too strong for now for Apple to even consider a January or February rush-launch, and if the iPad 3 occupies March on the calendar, that means nothing on the iPhone front before April. Even that’s optimistic right.
Apple TV: Apple has often used its fall iPod event to launch the latest Apple TV, but there was no movement on that front at this month’s iPhone event. Various speculations has Apple eventually moving into actual television sets, making the “Apple TV” set top box perhaps on the way out. But there’s no timeframe on these supposed television sets, so Apple TV could indeed see another new generation in the mean time. There’s no clear indication when that would happen, however.
iOS 5.1: The only remaining Apple product which can be expected in 2011, iOS 5.1 will deliver a slew of minor revisions to iOS 5 including features Apple didn’t quite finish in time for the original release and
