Rumor: iPhone 5 Will Feature “Metallic Glass”

Another round of iPhone 5 rumors surfaced. If talkative Korean sources are to believe, the next iPhone will be cased in “liquidmetal” and that it will arrive in October at the earliest. Earlier reports claim the upcoming iPhone will debut this summer, so why the delay you ask. Apparently Qualcomm, the manufacturer of some of the smartphone's necessary chips, cannot churn out production fast enough.

Meanwhile, the “liquidmetal” casing can be described more accurately as a glassy metal.
