For Apple, spring means announcing the new devices it will offer in the summer. The season is just around the corner, and rumors are flying about what the company will put on the market. In an effort to compete with other smartphones on the market, it’s rumored that Apple’s iPhone 5 will feature a physical keyboard and a larger camera and screen, reports Mashable.

The rumors are based on glimpses of unfinished prototypes, which possibly could never come into fruition. But if they do, it’s certain that the changes will make the iPhone 5 far more competitive with Android devices, which already feature huge cameras, bigger screens and in some cases, slide-out keyboards.

As far as the camera goes, it’s rumored that the larger camera will be between 8 and 12 megapixels, which would blow current Android models out of the water. Mashable suspects that Apple would include a touch screen keyboard along with a physical one.
