( Mashable ) -- After the rumor that Apple wo n't announce the next-generation of iPhone in June or July ( which was the case with all previous iPhone announcements ) , comes a report that the new iPhone is actually coming in the fall . While Apple 's suppliers will begin production in July this year , the finished product is likely to begin shipping in September , Reuters reports citing sources familiar with the matter . As for what the actual features of the next-gen iPhone , the details are scarce as always ; one of Reuters ' sources claims the device will look similar to the iPhone 4 , but it will feature a faster processor . To quickly piece together all the iPhone rumors and reports we 've seen , this is what we have : the white version of the iPhone 4 should become available within 2-3 weeks ; the iPhone 5 ( if that 's what Apple will call it ) will be an evolutionary upgrade , visually similar to the iPhone 4 but with a better camera , processor and a bigger screen . Take all of these with a grain of salt as Apple has been monolithically silent about the matter , as always . © 2010 MASHABLE.com . All rights reserved .
