iPhone 5 rumored design

Apple is set to unveil the iPhone at a major September 12 event, according to iMore sources "who have proven accurate in the past."

"iMore has learned that Apple is planning to debut the new iPhone at a special event on Wednesday, September 12, 2012, with the release date to follow 9 days later on Friday, September 21." iMore.com said last week.

iMore added that the iPad mini, a 7-inch version of the iPad, and the new iPod nano will also be announced at the event. 

Apple typically finalizes its latest products around the fall, allowing them to hit store shelves in time for the peak holiday shopping season.

iPhone 5 is expected to sport  a thinner body, a larger screen, stronger Siri function and major changes in the design for connection wire and connector, which will stimulate procurement by consumers.
