With the influx of rumors and speculations circulating throughout the web in the recent months, it has been reported that we might finally have a target month for the release of the highly anticipated iPhone 5.

The Guardian reports that the phone is undergoing final carrier testing which is a process that should take only weeks and that leaves Apple in a prime position to step up its manufacturing to meet a September launch.

Business Insider also states that the next iPhone is possibly a major update rather than just a spec change. They claim that it will boast a larger display and thinner bezel in addition to a dual-core processor. The form factor is said to be similar to the iPhone 4.

What is different is that in addition to a dual-core processor that we have talked about before, our supply chain sources indicate that it will sport a slightly larger display than the current 3.5-inch retina display that is already industry leading. We are picking up that it will retain a similar form factor and size but with thinner bezel. We believe this makes sense to improve the iPhone experience without making it too bulky as we have seen with models from competitors.

Shown below is a picture that is possibly the upcoming iPhone 5 but it most likely is a fake.
