Apple iphone 5 Will Support both GSM and CDMA

Rumors of a both GSM and CDMA Apple smartphone have been around since 2009, but at that time, experts believed that an apple iphone using Qualcomm's dual-carrier processor chip won't be available earlier than 2011. Well, it is 2011, and even though we still don't have any official features for the apple iphone 5 yet, it is entirely possible that is going to be a world cell phone.

Depending on a recent report, an application programmer, who preferred not to give up the name of the app or his name, has clues that apple iphone 5 will probably be dual-mode world cell phone. The proof that has been provided to one of the reporters at TechCrunch consists of a number of application usage logs, which show that just recently a number of individuals were evaluating the application using a single, new Apple gadget that without doubt is a GSM-CDMA mobile phone. The records moreover demonstrate that the gadget that was used to register for the application was running on Apple's forthcoming iOS 5, and it utilized the 2 individual codes that recognize mobile networks: MNC (mobile network codes) and MCC(mobile county codes). MNC/MCC codes are classified as the unique codes for Verizon and AT&T networks.

If indeed each of these recent claims tends to be true, then apple iphone 5 will undoubtedly be Apple's first mobile phone to support both GSM and CDMA. All iphones were found to be only GSM cell phones until February of 2011, when Apple unveiled the iPhone 4 CDMA for Verizon. It is also regarded that Apple will likely make the iPhone 4 offered on Sprint network this October. Sprint makes use of the same CDMA technology as Verizon wireless.

Sprint to Offer the iPhone 5 in October

The addition of the iphone 4 mobilephone is not the only surprise Sprint has in store for its potential clients. Evidently, the third largest carrier in the country will probably start offering the iPhone 5, as well. This for sure will make it possible for Sprint to raise its number of contract customers. The wireless carrier suffered a significant loss in its 2nd quarter, when around 101,000 postpaid potential clients decided to switch to some other providers. Sprint also lost $847 million during that quarter, and this loss was charged on its significant competitors, Verizon and AT&T, who both provide the iPhone.

The iPhone 5 is predicted to arrive on Sprint, AT&T and Verizon in the month of October, and the smartphone is supposed to include an upgraded digital camera, but not a front facing LED flash. The fifth era Apple mobile phone, that might even be called iPhone 4S, will probably seem like the apple iphone 4, but fan base are aiming that it will be more compact and thinner as compared to its predecessor.

Neither Apple nor Sprint made a comment on the latest gossips, which propose that Sprint will start carrying the iPhone.
