Since its release in 2007, Apple’s iPhone has become one of virtually synonymous with smartphone, to some, and is directly responsible for making them popular household items.
It has been a little over a week since the company announced that they would be releasing three new iPhones this year, and already images of one these have been leaked on the internet.
The phones announced were the iPhone 6s, the iPhone 6s Plus, and the iPhone 6c.
Apple have yet to release a 4-inch version of the iPhone 6, but it would seem that the company is preparing to do just that this year with the iPhone 6c. Images leaked on FutureSupplier.com show a smartphone that is very similar to the previous budget-friendly 5c, but with a few cool changes.
Like the iPhone 5c, the 6c has a plastic body, and is expected to feature the same colors. The size of the rear shell indicates that the phone will be in the 4-inch range. However, there are two really notable differences, namely the pill-shaped flash LED next to the camera, and two rows of speaker grilles on the bottom of the phone.
Given the shape of the flash LED and the speaker grilles, there is a pretty good chance that the new 4-inch iPhone will have the same internals as the popular 5s, which is now already two generations old.
With Android phone popularity not showing any signs of slowing down, releasing another affordable version of the new iPhone, like they did with the previous iPhone 5, would be a really smart move on Apple’s side. Many people were surprised when the iPhone 6 Plus came out, but many were also disappointed for not having a 4-inch option.
Having three different sizes on offer for customers to choose from would be in accordance with the company’s new approach of giving clients more options, and it is my personal opinion that this is the best way of making everybody happy.
Apple have not made any announcements as of yet, so really all we can do is speculate and look forward to the phones’ release date later this year.
