“This fall, Apple’s newly revamped iPhone lineup is expected to include the high-end ‘iPhone 5S,’ a plastic ‘iPhone 5C,’ and a low-end option with the legacy iPhone 4S, according to a well-connected insider,” Neil Hughes reports for AppleInsider.
“Ming-Chi Kuo of KGI Securities said in a research note on Monday that he believes Apple’s anticipated ‘iPhone 5C’ will actually be positioned as the company’s mid-range device, not a low-end option as was previously rumored,” Hughes reports. “Instead, the company’s entry-level iPhone will be the iPhone 4S, he said.”
Hughes reports, “Kuo expects the so-called “iPhone 5C” to cost between $400 and $500 without a contract subsidy. Meanwhile, the iPhone 4S — first released in 2011 — will run between $300 and $400, according to Kuo. The updated lineup will also mean the end of the iPhone 4, which was first released in 2010.”
