An iPhone 5 with LTE could prove to be very popular in the US according to a recent survey which was done in March amongst mainly Macworld readers and PC world readers. A whopping 70% of Macworld readers said they would go and buy the next iphone with LTE and 48% said they would pre order the phone. But 40 per cent of mobile users who read neither PCWorld nor Macworld said they would buy the LTE iPhone 5. Surprisingly only 15% of PC world readers said they would be the iphone 5.
This survey went to to say that 41 per cent said they would go with an iphone on the AT&T network, which was top in the survey. 29 per cent said they would go with Verizon, so taking second place.
Overall this survey suggests that the notion of the iphone 5 coming with LTE will prove to be a winning combination for apple. There is a good chance we will see LTE technology in the next iphone, due to the shear demand that the consumer has for faster devices. If Apple does not introduce LTE technology, then Apple could jeopardise its market share and its image as being the company for innovation and excellence.
