The iPhone 5 came out less than six months ago, but rumors of Apple's next phone are already swirling. There were signs in January that Apple may already be testing a new iPhone, and The Wall Street Journal reported that a low-cost version of the iPhone may arrive this year. Though it's never certain that rumors will add up, nearly everything about last year's iPhone 5 was leaked in advance of the phone's debut. Let's take a look at what the rumors are saying about Apple's next move for the iPhone.

Here Are Some Gorgeous Concept Designs For An iPhone 6
Apple's next iPhone will probably launch at some point this year.
There haven't been any rumors or leaks of what the phone's next design will look like but French tech site, Nowhereelse.fr has commissioned graphic designer, Martin Hajek to imagine.
Hajek draws inspiration from the current iPad Mini design and offers the device in two different screen sizes.
We like how the device has no edge to edge bezel and no home button. Instead of a physical home button the function is imagined to resemble Apple's MacBook trackpad invisible button.

A Questionable Rumor Speculates an iPhone 5S and iPhone 6 in 2013?
Talk about far-fetched rumors. We’ve had our share of those recently concerning Apple’s upcoming iPhone(s), but the latest comes from one of the most unreliable sources ever. A Chinese Sina Tech user that says a “friend” has spotted two next-gen iPhones at an Apple supplier in the country.
That’s like me saying that my former college roommate’s girlfriend has an uncle whose best friend’s sister cut Tim Cook’s hair and overheard a phone conversation between him and some of his engineers about the iPhone 5S and 6.
And yet we can’t just ignore the rumor, even if the source is shady at best. Because hey, we’ve heard crazier stories revealed by more obscure sources before, right?
So, what exactly did Old Yao’s “friend” allegedly see? Apparently two iPhone models, one that supposedly resembled the iPhone 5 (aka the 5S) and a wider, longer and thinner new device (aka the iPhone 6). If all that proves to be legit, Apple might be looking to intro more than a new iPhone during 2013. And maybe even three.

Report: Apple Testing iPhone 6 Right Now
This isn't surprising, of course—we know there's a new iPhone coming, and there will be a new iPhone after that, and after that, until western civilization collapses. But TNW also says iOS 7 is making an appearance in developer usage logs alongside the test hardware, which were running on IP addresses from within Apple HQ. Last year, iOS 6 didn't start to pop up like this until a month before WWDC in June—is Apple going to drop a peek at the next giant software update earlier than usual? Or are their engineers just putting in overtime to renovate the somewhat stale mobile OS? Both? Neither? We have no clue, and neither does anyone outside of Apple. There are also zero hints as to what kind of specs are in these test units. It's probably faster.

The 6 Types Of Social Media Users
At this point, no single customer engagement channel can deliver marketers a complete picture of consumer behavior.
Google knows what you’re interested in, but not what you’ve done. Facebook knows who your friends are, but not what you buy. Pinterest knows what you share, but not how you act on it. Foursquare knows where you are, but not what you like. You get the idea.

Apple iOS 6 Confirmed for Next Monday (Updated)
This banner—reflected on glass—has just been snapped at the Moscone West, the venus for Apple's World Wide Developers Conference 2012 in San Francisco, California. There isn't much information for iOS 6, but this is what we expect.

Apple iOS 6: What to expect from Apple's new mobile OS
Apple’s Worldwide Developer’s Conference is only six days away, and Apple is absolutely going to be announcing a new version of its mobile operating system, iOS 6. Apple’s post-PC computing platform is already powerful — its functionality is cherry-picked from OS X, after all — but that doesn’t mean it’s perfect by any means. Apple has big plans for its mobile OS in 2012, and here is my list features I believe iOS 6 is going to gain when it launches later this year (along with a few stretches):
