Though Apple is known to keep its cards closed to the chest, but the rumor mill has not been so silent. The speculations about the next iPhone began as soon as the iPhone 4 was released. However, it is important for everyone to keep a level head when assessing those reports.

With the skyrocketing expectations from Apple's 5th generation iPhone, lets parse the iPhone 5 wishlists, expectations, speculation, rumors and leaks data to find a realistic and probable picture:

Next Generation iPhone 5 2012 Features and Specs

iPhone 5 is expected to boast significant hardware and software upgrades, inevitable after Samsung Galaxy S3 harware advancements, the main competitor in the line. Reports have been cropping up, claiming Apple will be delivering several key improvements to the coming iPhone 5 device. However, some of those features make sense, others do not.

Instead of listing every possible update that has been talked about, the following features, enhancements or improvements are the ones that are most likely to be a part of the Apple next generation iPhone 5 2012 specifications:

1. New Slim and Sleek Design
   The new iPhone 5 will deliver a new design, iPhone 5 may go back to its original design of the iPhone 3G and will have a curved back that will eliminate all the gripping problems faced with the iPhone 4. The iPhone 5 is expected to to be thinner, faster, and lighter similar to the upgrade for the iPad 2. The brushed metal back could replace the glass on the backside.
2. Apple iOS 6 Operating System
   When Apple unveiled iOS 5 at the Worldwide Developers Conference in June, the company said that it would be making its way to the iPhone 4 later this year. However, there is a good chance that the platform will also be made available on the iPhone 5 when that device launches this fall. An iPhone 5 with iOS 5 simply makes no sense. With iOS 5 beta 5 already in hand, the iOS 6 is expected to make some interesting features aviable at iPhone 5 like new Multitouch Gestures, Non-intrusive Notifications with a dedicated notification center, Deep Twitter Integration and lots more.
   
3. Quard-Core Faster Processor
   The iPhone 4S is being trumped by competitors that feature quard-core processors. So for Apple its time to go quard-core. The iPhone 5 will come with A9 Quard-core processor to give a stiff competition for other Quard-core Android smartphones found in the market today.
   
4. Larger 4+ Inches Screen Display
   Its almost a conses that Apple next iPhone version 5 will come with a bigger display. The top iPhone competitors have already outshined 3.5 inches iPhone display with 4.3 and 4.8 inches screens. Apple iPhone 5 will be the first iOS device with 4 inches larger display (if not the edge-to-edge option that is being rumored) to help itself compete more effectively against devices from Samsung, HTC, Motorola and others.
   
5. Improved Graphical Capabilities
   Initially, simple mobile games were made available in App Store. But over time, games have become integral to the iPhone experience. In the iPhone 5, look for Apple to capitalize on that with improved graphical components that will help developers take their titles to a new level.
   
6. Improved 8-Megapixel Camera
   Apple iPhone 4 has been criticized for its built-in rear-facing camera. With only 5-megapixels camera and not so great lens iPhone is far behind competitor devices. Apple as a company know to offer the best, can not let this point ignored. New iPhone 5 is undoubtedly expected to come with a vastly improved 8-megapixel camera with 1080p video playback, panoramic photo capture capability, improved dual-LED flash unit and a front facing 5 MP camera.
   Recently, Apple registered a patent referred as "Image Capture Device Having Tilt and/or Perspective Correction". The forthcoming iPhone cameras could use various sensors, including the accelerometer and gyroscope, in order to determine an image shoot. The sensors will instantly make up for positioning as well as range, permitting images to come out flawlessly.
   
7. More RAM and Storage
   Digital media is becoming more important by the day. Thanks to improved broadband adoption, video content is becoming more important. Considering how important digital media has always been to Apple, expect the iPhone 5 to come with more storage. A 64GB version seems like a safe bet, but a 128GB option is also possible. More RAM, possibly 1GB, is also expected and will arrive with an improved A5 processor.
   
8. Enhanced Signal Quality and Antenna Fix
   One of the complaints most consumers have with the iPhone 4 is that when it is held in a "death grip", it loses some signal quality. With the iPhone 5, expect Apple to fix that problem. Apple has always been a company that likes to address issues quickly. That shouldn’t be any different this time around.
   
9. 4G Connectivity and LTE Support
   This might be the long shot of this group, but 4G connectivity and LTE support is possibly going to make its way to the Apple iPhone 5. Looking around the market, there are several devices that are now shipping with 4G because their makers realize that the future is in the ultra-high-speed option.
   
10. Near-Field Communication
    Looking ahead, near-field communication seems to be a hot issue in the mobile marketplace. Google earlier this year unveiled a new Wallet service that will allow users to pay for products from their handsets. The company promises integration on more Android devices going forward. Although that market is still in its infancy, Apple would be smart to deliver a payment service of its own now before Google’s gets too far ahead. And Steve Jobs knows that.

The other features of iPhone 5 will most probably remain the same with minor tweaks.
