iPhone 5S Release Date Rumors & What to Expect

The iPhone 5 was released after months of speculation back on September 21st. The 4-inch display and 4G LTE powered smartphone all have seemingly resonated with consumers as the iPhone 5 has been scooped up millions of times since then. Yet, it’s successful launch has not managed to stave off rumors about Apple’s next smartphone, tentatively called the iPhone 5S.
Rumors are claiming Apple’s iPhone 5S and next-generation iPad will launch in the middle of 2013, a bit earlier than many observers expect considering Apple’s seemingly moved to a fall release schedule. Digitimes points to industry sources that say Apple’s component suppliers are expecting large orders from the iPhone maker in March and April of next year.
Someone think the 'S' in iPhone 5S model may stand for ‘security’. I have no idea to verify if it's really credibly. So, with the hot of iPhone 5, how we can except for the new one- the iPhone 5S.
By the rumors, iPhone 5S may be:

few display changes, if any

With the iPhone 5, Apple upgraded the iPhone 5 with a 4-inch Retina Display that boasts a 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio and one of the highest pixels-per-inch count in the business at 326ppi. It’s a gorgeous display. And while its competitors may be looking to include full HD 1080p displays on their smartphones, see the Droid DNA for an example, don’t expect Apple to follow suit.

Expect A Similar Design

Do expect a similar design though. The iPhone 5, with its metal, aluminum and glass is an industrial masterpiece and we don’t expect Apple to make any major design changes with the iPhone 5S. The iPhone 4S also retained a similar design to the iPhone 4 with its glass back and metal band.

iOS 7

One thing that seems certain is that the iPhone 5S, or whatever it’s called, will launch with the latest version of iOS, presumably, iOS 7. Like its predecessors, it will likely benefit from a host of new features and given that iOS chief Scott Forstall is out at the company, we could wind up seeing some drastic changes to Apple’s aging software.

Unique Software

Apple didn’t announce any sort of unique software with the iPhone 5 unless you count that there are five rows of tiles on the home screen and the calendar app looks better. Those however have to do with the size of the display.
With the iPhone 4S, Apple introduced Siri, the virtual assistant that is accessed with a hard press of the home button. And with the iPhone 5S, we expect Apple to introduce some unique software.

Other Upgrades

Don’t expect the iPhone 5S to be exactly the same as the iPhone 5 from a hardware stand point though. Apple generally outfits its latest iPhone with some hardware upgrades including a faster processor, camera tweaks and more. We could see a pure quad-core processor powering the iPhone 5S and we also could see Apple fiddle with its already amazing rear camera.
