Updated March 18: this morning, appearance of a
model8 GB of iPhone 5c on the pages ofOrange. The page
still leads into error, but this comesconfirm the information
published yesterday (read below). Waiting for the official announcement
from Apple. It is also rumored thatthe iPad 4 could make its
back, instead of the iPad 2… To be continued today on iPhon.fr
etVIPad.fr.
The original article published on March 17:
We have known it since
its presentation, theiPhone 5csuffers from a
price placement far too close to that of the high-end model,
l’iPhone 5s. Apple might have chosen to
react by proposing a less expensive model that could be placed perfectly
between current models and the iPhone 4s.
Indeed, if we are to believe several sources from the United Kingdom or
from Germany, but also fromFrance(via@_Chrone_, Apple could offer
from tomorrowandCheaper iPhone 5c with capacity
8 GB storage. The news has not yet been confirmed by
Apple but certain prices have nevertheless already been advanced (to be confirmed of course
!) :
So, we are talking about €459 atOrangeand its subsidiary without
engagementof them
Agrille
possible pricewas reported in the comments
below.
This new model would also be available from Apple and therefore in
l’Apple
Online store, unlocked, at the price of509 €, either
€100 less than the 16 GB modeland around 100 euros of
more than the iPhone 4s 8GB.
All colors of the current iPhone 5cwould be available
for this 8 GB version.
It should be kept in mind that a storage capacity of 8 GB does not leave
reality that between 4.5 and 5 GB to the user. A model which could therefore
target those who have standard use of their smartphone
but who want to benefit from a larger screen than the iPhone 4s and a
processor allowing it to remain fast for a few years and above all
compatible for longer with future iOS.
Is this novelty that we will be watching for tomorrow (a press release
would be expected) will be sufficient to boost sales of theiPhone 5c?
Time will tell…
