iPhone 5 release date has postponed the lined up smart phone and tablet releases in 2011-12. The gadget makers are in no man’s land and are banking on early iPhone 5 release so that they can perhaps delay or launch a scaled up version of the devices. The likes of Samsung and HTC have products to meet the iPhone 5 challenge but they are deliberately postponing the respective releases. The same story holds true for tablet makers as they’d be looking to channelize the efforts of Apple in their tablet products. The new iOS 5 platform will offer iMessage, iCloud and whole lot of other improvements. Can competitors offer these? Or do they even have such competence?
Probably not at this point in time but who knows that Android would be in the making of an iCloud kind of a proposition. As of the current market dynamics the competitors are pushed at shore by Apple and soon the new iPhone 5 will be released.
The tech analysts are already contemplating that iPhone will drive the sales numbers of tech market going forward. Therefore, stay glued to the big bang launch of Apple as it will be followed by whole lot of offers from competing brands too.
