iPhone 5 Release With Liquid Metal To Compete Against Galaxy S III

Probably some of you might recall that news about Apple partnering with a company called “LiquidMetal” for its future iDevices. And that’s probably it.

Today, rumors are suggesting the catchy name isn’t just for a show — it’s the real deal. And the Cupertino giant is investing with this new technology to create super-thin and lightweight iPhones in the future.

According to ETnews, a korean publisher, Apple is planning to introduce this to its next flagship phone (iPhone 5) that’s not only thin and light but highly durable as well able to resist impacts. Interestingly, the site also suggests Samsung is aiming for a related technology on manufacturing “Galaxy S3”. The reason? both companies can’t find a decisive edge with one another in terms of software and hardware specs, so they’re now focusing with features and design.

The kicker part? ETnews claim both of these technology are already presented with the upcoming iPhone, which is most probably going to be presented on Q3 (July-September); and for the Galaxy S III which will be announced on May 3. Likewise, we advice everyone to take this news with a grain of salt since pundits suggest the basis of this leak came from just another rumor.

Just so you know, this is not the first time we’ve heard some interesting tales about the iPhone 5. Even last year, rumors are spilling around it will have a bigger screen display, buttonless home key and 3D display. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see.
