The next iPhone device, which many are calling the iPhone 5, is being eyed by a hefty number of iPhone 4 owners.
A full 74 percent of iPhone 4 owners will upgrade to the next iPhone, according to survey results out today from deal site TechBargains.
The iPhone 5 is also on the shopping list of 71 percent of iPhone 3GS owners, 64 percent of iPhone 4S owners, 38 percent of Blackberry owners, and 22 percent of Android owners, all of whom plan to switch from their current handsets. The poll further discovered that 32 percent of people who don't own a smartphone will opt for Apple's next flagship phone.
Among those who have the new iPhone in their sights, 10 percent will wait in line for it on the day it's released. Another 35 percent will buy the phone online as soon as it's available. And 55 percent don't yet know when they'll grab the new phone.
Most people (65 percent) said that they would buy the iPhone simply to upgrade from their current phone. That's compared with 29 percent who said that "no phone compares to the iPhone," 28 percent who just like to buy the latest products, and 14 percent who aim to switch from Android to Apple. As in many surveys, some consumers cited more than one reason.
