It is now obvious that Apple Inc is presently working on a less expensive iPhone in order to
make an alternative to the present models on existence. This less expensive iPhone will be
launched sooner than later this year. This information was gathered from the people briefed on
the release.
This production is indeed a big change in the corporate technique so as to reduce the greatness
in the smartphones which has dropped off. The plan of making less expensive iPhone is in
progress and will soon be made available because Apple has been on this plan for so many
years.
The launching will be made this year. Apple is working seriously on this in order to ensure
perfection in the production of the cheaper phone. This cheaper phone will be identical to the
standard iPhone but one of the people confirmed that it will be of less expensive body. One
thing Apple is still considering is the reduction in the device cost with the aid of using different
shell which is produced from polycarbonate plastic which makes it differ from iPhone 5 which
presently has aluminum casing.
Some other features could still be retained or be recycled to the iPhone old models.
Some people are still contemplating whether Apple could altercate his plan. But up till now a
spokeswoman of Cupertino, Calif has not said anything yet.
At the moment, Apple is facing much pressure to ensure that iPhone are made available at
reasonable and affordable prices and at the right time. Google’s Android operating system is
gaining much ground in the market share as a result of its outpouring of the low cost phones.
At the third quarter of 2012, Apple was able to have just 146% of the shipments of Smartphone
globally. According to IDC, the company was able to reach 23% in the 4 th quarter of 2011 and
first quarter of 2012.
