AppleInsider | Apple to launch new iPhone with faster processor, same look in Sept. - rumor

A new report claims Apple suppliers will begin production of its
next-generation iPhone, which will feature a faster processor but few
changes to its look, in July for a launch that will likely occur in
September of this year.

Citing three people familiar with the matter, Reuters reported on Wednesday that Apple's next iPhone will arrive in September. The device will
allegedly boast a faster processor while looking "largely similar to the
iPhone 4," the report read, without providing further details.

Reuters' sources roughly corroborate a recent note from Concorde Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. Kuo told AppleInsider earlier this week that Apple's so-called iPhone 5 would go into mass production in September.
