Cheaper iPhone
Those looking for more color options when deciding to buy an Apple iPhone will happy to know a new rumor states that the next iPhone, the 5S, should be coming in three colors instead of just two when it releases in July alongside the cheaper variant everyone's been talking about.
It's beginning to look like 2013 will be the year Apple finally expands its iPhone lineup beyond just one model. A new report released by Topeka Capital Markets analyst Brian White asserts that a cheaper iPhone variant could be releasing as early as June.
If the rumors are to be believed, then Apple's 2013 could be its most aggressive push back against Samsung on retail shelves. It's beginning to look like the iPhone 6 will be cheaper than the Galaxy S4, making it an extremely attractive competitor to Samsung's upcoming flagship device.
Yesterday was a bad day for Apple, with the company's stock taking about a 10 percent hit. Perhaps it's not helping things that the iPad mini is destroying the iPad. Also, this has implications for people looking for a more affordable iPhone.
Apple, unwilling to cede even an inch of ground to the Korea-based company, will supposedly launch the 'iPhone Math' in June or July and step onto fresh ground with a new 4.8-inch screen and an 8-megapixel camera.
Aside from a handful of choice details about the unconfirmed devices, analysts Ming-Chi Kuoand Peter Misek suggest that the 5S and cheaper iPhone 5 will launch in the second half of 2013.
The next iPhone should be launching by mid-2013, according to one analyst.
Apple's low-cost iPhone variant will apparently use a plastic chassis.
