At the end of May I did some iPhone predictions, just in case a new phone was announced at WWDC. Now that the phone has been announced, it’s time to see how I fared.
-
The 3.95” (or whatever) screen is real
This turned out to be correct. A added detail that turned out to be correct is that “old” apps will be letter-boxed.
-
A6 dual core processor
Seems to be correct as well. We don’t know all the details yet, but the processor is called A6 and it looks to be dual-core. I’ve heard however that it does include a quad-core GPU just like the A5X.
-
There won’t be a three part back
I got this one epically wrong. The leaked parts turned out to be legit (although details differed). I’ll hold of the verdict of how I like the design when I hold one in my hand.
-
The Facetime camera will be centered
Exactly right.
-
The camera will see an upgrade, but won’t exceed 11MP
Turned out be right as well. The theory that it would get a slightly higher than 8MP sensor wasn’t right however, since it has exactly the same pixel dimensions as the iPhone 4S.
So 4 out of 5. That’s good in my books.
