Apple will unveil its new iPhone in August, most likely dubbed the iPhone 5S – but it could also be planning to release a more affordable version of its flagship phone, made out of polycarbonate instead of glass or aluminium.
That's according to AppleInsider, which claims that while the iPhone 5S will feature worldwide LTE connectivity, its budget counterpart won't work as a world device. Rumours of a polycarbonite body to cut costs have cropped up to support the notion of a cheaper iPhone, with a $US330 pricetag being floated about.
According to Chinese news site EMSOne, the iPhone 5S will work on China Mobile – the world’s largest carrier. Unlike current iPhones that need different models for separate carriers, the iPhone 5S will be one to rule them all, compatible worldwide. This also suggests a new chip like Qualcomm’s LTE processor that works on 40 bands.
