“According to our industry checks, the device should be called iPhone 4S and include minor cosmetic changes, better cameras, A5 dual-core processor, and HSPA+ support,” he writes in a research note.
This news does fall in line with earlier claims of an iPhone 4S prototype with an A5 chip being seeded to high-end game developers. While the HSPA+ isn’t quite LTE, it is still a slight improvement and will certainly be hailed as 4G at AT&T.
But the surprising part is that the iPhone 4S will likely be announced with the addition of Sprint, T-Mobile, and China Mobile as new carriers. It is still slated to arrive this September.
