Bloomberg: a smaller, cheaper iPhone is coming

Appear not stop rumors these days, some motivated by the Mobile World Congress and others for information that come to reputable sources, in this case Bloomberg, who passes us that Apple is working on an iPhone quite small, cheaper.

It is an idea that has been repeated several times over the life of the iPhone, and now returns with force to fight the horde of Android phones available in all price ranges and sizes. The by now known as "iPhone nano" would appear in summer.

There is even talk of prices, the smaller iPhone would be around 200$ without a contract, a priori competitive price, which moves like the iPod Touch, so it does not seem unreasonable. We assume that old components used, and do without the elements that trigger the final price as Retinal Display. Anyway, the price is the most controversial of this story, too cheap.

Following the rumors, we face an interesting feature to make it even more palatable to the market: it would have the support in the same device for GSM and CDMA networks. We also report that use a Universal SIM system, which physically remove the card and so would cause the least possible problems to customers in its operating changes.

I guess you will have you been like me, what do you think? ", The source of the news is important, but regardless of its truth is a reality that Apple needs to extend range to compete with Android. I again make it clear, for now is only a rumor, hard to believe.

Going to analyze the Bloomberg report, written by two authors, and even gives a lot of general information on the placing on the market, adds nothing specific technology. Even leaving the possibility that you can cancel or delay, to avoid catching fingers, are details that make us suspicious.

Often works on Apple products That Do not get released.

We also believe that it could be a trial balloon for Apple itself to test market interest. Are we expecting and need a iPhone like this?.
