So it seems that Samsung is set to sue Apple if they were to release an iPhone with 4G LTE capabilities, and thanks to some last minute leaks and if Samsung is going to keep to their word, Apple’s iPhone 5 could be hit with some legal trouble as soon as it launches. Pictured above (via HDblog.it) is the alleged logic board belonging to the iPhone 5. It shows off Apple’s A6 processor along with the MDM9615M modem that will bring LTE connectivity to the device. Also spotted is a nano SIM slot which corroborates earlier reports that nano SIM cards were being shipped to carriers in anticipation of the iPhone 5 that supposedly will be using the new SIMs. Could this logic board be the real deal? If it is we guess there aren’t really many surprises left in Apple’s announcement, but do check back with us in a couple of hours as we’ll be back with the official details.

While Apple has yet to make an official announcement, some are speculating that the next-gen iPhone will be either called the iPhone 5, or the “new” iPhone which was the name that Apple decided to give its third-gen iPad. Well it seems like thanks to a quick search Apple’s website, the “iPhone 5” moniker can more or less be confirmed by the search results. The links in the search cannot be clicked at the moment, which we guess isn’t too surprising given that Apple probably doesn’t want to let all the cats out of their proverbial bag before its announcement. In any case the name seems to have been confirmed, so the only thing left is for us to wait and see if the design and its specs are similar to that of the rumors, leaks and speculations that we have come across in the past. So, are you relieved that it will be called the iPhone 5 instead of “the new iPhone”?
