Short answer, 2 weeks! The long answer will be covered after the break, but if you're looking to stay on top of all the iPhone 5 scoops, you needn't look any further than here!
Apple's newest iPhone will be debuting on October 4th, that's this Tuesday, people! It will be held on the Cupertino campus, which is a much smaller venue than what Apple's used in the past. Whether you need up to the minute updates on the new iPhone, or just a summary of everything after it goes down, or if you don't want to wait, and want to hear all the latest rumors, we have it here! I'll even tell you the secret trick of how to get the newest iPhone the fastest, AND cheapest.
Stay up to Date!
There's no better place to point your browsers than @buymytronics or Facebook.com/buymytronics! I will be completely taking over our social media outlets, delivering the latest, up to the minute updates on Facebook and Twitter about everything that's happening with the iPhone 5, AS IT'S HAPPENING!! The time that this will be occurring is at 11am Mountain Daylight Time, or if you don't happen to call the Mountain Time Zone your home: 10am Pacific, 12pm (noon) Central, or 1pm Eastern.
After the Show!
Apple's press conference should end around 12:30pm, promptly thereafter I will be posting a blog right here about what we got, what we didn't, what we might've liked to see, and pictures of the new iPhone.
But I want iPhone 5 NOW!
Relax! Apple's a tight ship for sure, but even the biggest ships have mice aboard, and that means leaks! The closer we get, the more leaks crop up, just ripe for the picking! An excellent blog has been written about this on our Australian site, right here! In short, there have been some signs of an iPhone 4S type of new device (you know, same look, better guts), but there's a lot more evidence of Apple releasing a larger screen, thinner body, iPad Miniesque type of iPhone with a larger, gesture based home button at the bottom. Other recent reports have also pointed towards an iPhone with a 4G HSPA+ antenna in it! Facetime over 4G anyone? The rumors are endless, and they span the gambit from plausible, to outlandish, and everything in between. Don't believe everything you read, but all questions will be answered on the 4th!
How to be the First to Get the New iPhone!
The suspected launch date of the iPhone 5 seems to be hovering right around the 14th-21st, 1-2 weeks after the announcement, it won't be long, that's for sure. Apple knows that it's a no-no to tease products without releasing them. Unless you plan on camping out in front of your local Apple store for AT LEAST 24 hours, you'll need a backup plan. At the press release they always say when it's coming out in stores, and what time it's coming out on the net. Ordering from Apple's online store is a surefire bet to be the first one of your friends to have an iPhone. Instead of waiting on the cold streets for the doors to open, sans shower, and toilets, you merely just need to set your alarm, or stay up late watching a movie! The iPhone will release at Midnight of the release day, and that's when you simply walk over to your computer, and hit order! It'll ship within 24 hours, and you'll have it within days, not weeks! Be careful though, waiting even 4 hours or more will set the pre orders back substantially! Sure, you'll be able to order one, but you won't be able to get it for quite some time.
How to be the First to Get the New iPhone... For CHEAP!
BuyMyTronics is a no brainer when it comes to this! We love our iPhone customers and when they sell their iPhones to us, they are often handsomely rewarded. You can sell your iPhone 3GS 32gb to us for $136, it's over 2 years old, talk about value! Your iPhone 4 16gb will be worth $173! Apple's been very consistent with their iPhone pricing, so it's confident to say that you can get the new iPhone 5 for $200, and after selling your old iPhone to us, it's like getting a new iPhone for less than $50! That's what I call a steal. It's not just limited to iPhone customers though, if you have BlackBerries, or HTC Android phones, or even if you're switching up from a simple feature phone, we have over 6000 items in our database, so it's very likely that we'll pay for yours, AND pick up the shipping as well. Free instant quotes lock in your price, just remember to be honest about your item, and keep an eye on your email inboxes, as communication to us is very important.
Whether it be with the new iPhone 5 release, or selling your used cell phones, we won't leave you hanging!
