How likely are consumers to buy the iPhone 5? Very likely indeed, says a new ChangeWave survey. Apple’s manufacturing partners should fire up their iPhone assembly lines pronto. The sixth version of the iconic smartphone—tentatively called the iPhone 5—could have record sales in its future. 451 Research has reported that a recent ChangeWave survey found not only “an uptick” in planned consumer smartphone purchases this quarter, but an “unprecedented level of advance demand” for the next Apple iPhone. The survey, of 4,042 consumers, 88 percent of whom were in the United States, took place June 18 to 25 and asked participants how likely they are to purchase the next iPhone.
