A cheaper version of iPhone

March 13th, 2010 Amit No comments

iPhone is huge success in countries like US and UK. It’s not only Apple or iPhone but carriers like AT&T are also sharing this success together. If you see other side, country like India, where subsidy is not provided by carriers and customers are paying big amount to buy iPhone. iPhone is not a success at all.
It may not be a very wise decision for the users to throw 600$ for iPhone when they can get a smart phone in 300$ or less. Of course there will be a difference of quality that iPhone delivers than those of other smart phones.
Less demand of iPhones could be one of the reason for not selling iPhone 3GS in such countries. Apple is probably planning to launch a cheaper version of iPhone to re-enter in such countries. It may be a compromised version in terms of hardware and may have options for WiFi, 3G, front camera or storage capacity. There are rumors like Apple is launching a cheaper version of iPhone in coming July’10.
