Analyst Brian White with Ticonderoga Securities is still holding out hope for Apple to announce a radically redesigned iPhone 5 at its press event tomorrow, reports AppleInsider.
In a note to investors White says Apple will release a unibody iPhone 5 that is "more aesthetically pleasing but also stronger, lighter, and avoid the back-side 'glass breaks' of last year."
"With this new enclosure, we believe this will provide Apple with the opportunity to expand the display size by at least one half of an inch to 4 inches and hopefully bigger," White wrote in a note to investors on Monday. "Apple will clearly need to upgrade the processor speed to at least a Dual Core 1.2GHz to match the Samsung Galaxy S II, while upgrading to a 8 mega pixel 1080p camera that is now also on the Galaxy S II."
White believes that Apple will release both the iPhone 5 and iPhone 4S with the iPhone 4S geared toward the huge prepaid smartphone market in China.
