According to the latest reports leaked from Cupertino, Apple is considering re-launching another four-inch device to please those who prefer the restrained size of their smartphones. This new device would be the long-awaited iPhone 6c, with a range of colors that we already know within Apple, and it would be made of metal, as is the case with the latest generation iPod Touch, a colorful metal that will not give that plastic feeling so criticized in the previous iPhone 5c and that it did. become almost a total failure, although Apple has never wanted to admit it.
These leaks that the guys from TechWeb They point out that during the month of January, Apple will hold the event to present its new range of devices to be in all stores during the month of February. Regarding prices, it could be between 400 and 500 dollars and it would be an iPhone 5s wrapped in a new colorful case. Perhaps they will probably decide to make it thinner, rounder or with other novelties, but the device will be internally identical or almost to the iPhone 5s in terms of hardware.
However, I am skeptical, especially because absolutely nothing has leaked from the production chain yet, something that has been happening continuously for years. But if Apple knows how to do something quite well, it is to surprise us, so at least the hope of four-inch lovers will increase until the month of January, where fate will tell whether these leaks are true or not. Meanwhile, we are still waiting for Apple to decide whether or not to continue with the development of phones below the 4,7 inches of the iPhone 6. Without a doubt, Apple still has a fairly potential buyer segment that requires the utility of the 4-inch, especially business people or professionals from other sectors for whom their phone is a tool and not an object to consume content.
As a loyal consumer of 4 ″ I will buy it for sure .. unless iOS 9.2 does not adapt as it should .. then I prefer to continue with the 6S ..
From the most absolute respect that each one spends the money on what they really earn, if the guts are going to be iPhone 5s ... I don't see the point in buying a new 6c, being able to pay less for a 5s that is going to come to be the same.
That said, I start to fill the piggy bank, because my wife will want one to replace her 5c ...
Here in Mexico (at least in Mexico City) the iPhone 5c became very popular, I still see many people with one on the streets, and I seriously considered the possibility of acquiring one until they were upgraded to 8GB of storage , which seemed ridiculously little to me, but the concept as such was very striking and interesting, I hope and if they return to the idea and surely I will also try it!
