...the history of Apple’s six-month and 12-month returns after new releases shows that they’ve generally been quite positive for shareholders – with the exception of the iPhone 5.
That exception isn't coincidental, as the iPhone was arguably the best phone on the market through its fourth generation and iOS was competing against a fading platform in BB and a fledgling, unrefined one in Android. The question is whether that exception will become the norm now that Android is highly refined and there are plenty of phones with more advanced features and specs competing (many at lower prices). Apple certainly has the potential of releasing an iPhone 6 that leapfrogs everyone with improvements, but we won't know if they'll pull that off for a couple more months. I'm particularly interested to see what Apple does in the areas of battery life, advanced camera features, and voice-interactivity.
