This update of EveryMac.com features specs and identifiers for the new iPhone 5 "AWS" variant in North America, the China-only iPhone 4S and iPhone 5 models, and a complete "Tapered Edge" Aluminum iMac Q&A with comprehensive details about the current consumer iMac series.
The "Tapered Edge" Aluminum iMac Q&A answers "How do you upgrade the RAM in the 'Tapered Edge' iMac? Is it even possible?" and "How fast are the 'Tapered Edge' iMac models compared to one another? How much faster are they than the models replaced?" as well as many other questions about the current consumer iMac line.
Additionally, the Currently Shipping, By Year, By Processor, By Capability, and By Identifier methods to browse iPod, iPhone and iPad models have been updated. The Ultimate iLookup and Ultimate iComparison features have been updated, too.
Finally, the EveryMac app [subsequently discontinued] -- designed for the iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad -- has been updated, as well.
If you bought, or buy, a new iPhone please send in its serial number. The non-personal information will be added to EveryMac.com's Ultimate Mac Lookup to help with model identification and differentiation. Thank you.
