The demand for Apple's next iPhone is at an "unprecedented level," according to a new survey from ChangeWave. The company, which surveyed more 4000 consumers in une found that 14% said they were very likely to buy the next iPhone and 17% said they were somewhat likely to buy it. Total those up, and about one third of consumers say they will likely buy the next generation iPhone.

The demand for this iPhone is much higher than previous generations. Last year's 4S brought in 10% of users very likely to purchase, and 11.5% somewhat likely to purchase. That totals to 21.5%, while the next generation iPhone is around 31%.

Current surveys show that there is enough demand to make this Apple's best selling phone yet.

Just bought the iPhone 5 from someone who found it in a bar. It's not that cool.

That 17% includes some Android users like myself. There might another category the survey failed to discern: hardcore Android users that refused to answer or put a mark in the very unlikely, but quietly buy an iPhone to check out the level of details they wish their Phones have. I feel for them because in this landof subsidies, all new smart phones are subsidized at $199. It's like choosing a Mustang over the Mercedes-Benz for the same price.

and I hope for their sakes that they come up with some kick ass design or they will suffer a major blow in sales. This coming from an apple fanboy that got fed up with their shit and went with a galaxy s3.

I feel ya 100% Im a big time fan as well with multiple apple devices. I went out and got the galaxy note with every intention of returning it within my 30 day return window. Lord behold 2 weeks later i couldn't believe how great the the phone was. All apple have to do is increase the screen to compete with the galaxy s3 at least and ill be in line for the next phone. But if not, ive found my new handset for the time being. My Samsung phone is a great device hands down, and after 5 years apple finally has some strong competition on the phone front. Those who don't think so CLEARLY have not tried the S3 or the G-note period. All this coming from a guy who has bought iPhones as gifts and for family and friends over the years!

Most people want a new design when purchasing something so expensive. They also want to make sure that people know they have the newest device. It's not rocket science to think that so few people wanted the 4S because it didn't change much. This is a stupid article.

That's hardly true. The 4S set sales record, rather than achieving "disappointing sales". People are sun 'Fan Boys' of Apple, not because they want to be seen with it, but because they have an amazing reputation for both quality and innovation. While Android phones can match the specs, they fall behind in the other categories.
