Leaked Info Indicates October Release in Canada and China
It has been reported this week by BGR (BoyGeniusReport), the well known tech blog, that leaked documents form Telus, a big Canadian telecommunication company, indicate an October 1st release date for the long expected iPhone 5 In Canada.
If we look at previous iPhone introductions, Apple has launched a new device in US and Canada both at the same time, and in the US first, then Canada second. Taking this into consideration, the September launch date that we were talking about in earlier articles might still be true for the US.
The leaked list that includes the Canadian iPhone 5 launch date also seems to include release dates for several other gadgets. These dates look to be accurate, as they are confirmed by many other trusted sources. This means that October 1st might actually be the Canadian release date.
Apple has previously launched their newest smartphones on a Thursday or a Friday but, because Saturday is statistically the busiest day for cellphone stores, a Saturday release is not out of the question.
Rumors that appeared on Sohu, a large Chinese search engine company, talk about the agreement between China Telecom and Apple to introduce the newest iPhone and a budget version of the current iPhone this October. The budged smartphone will be a cheaper version of the current device, which will target a larger customer base in developing countries.
