The Washington Post is speculating that Apple is on track to release the next iPhone this summer. Going off of a report by an unnamed employee from Foxconn (Foxconn Technology Group makes motherboards), there are supposedly prototypes of the next generation iPhone out being tested right now.

What does this mean? According to 9 to 5 Mac‘s Seth Weintraub, Apple’s usual behavior suggests that once the prototypes are out, the release is soon to come. The phone is rumored to have a 4-inch screen and is bigger than the current model.

If the tech giant is worried about the new large screen 4g phones, they’re surely not showing any signs. Apple just released their earnings figures for the first quarter boasting sales of over $46 billion as a result of selling 37 million iPhones & 15 million iPads.
