    Sure, and it will sell like hot cakes! No matter what they charge for an iPhone, people will blindly buy it even if they don't have the money for it. You can sell a garbage bin with an Apple logo on it and charge 500 euro for it, it will sell.

      I think that it may be the case. Release the same old one with same everything but with higher price tag... Still people will buy that shit

          "The source says the OLED panels are the main reason for the yet another price hike"

          I say GREED is the main reason for the yet another price hike

            It's called hyper inflation people, apparently you have not been paying attention to the crappy economy, and non stop overprinting of fiat monopoly money.

                  rumor : next iPhone to have laser beams, jet engine, cure for cancer and Skynet like Siri
                  next iPhone : we invented this new color, our tech named it "blue" it means simple, and the all new battery free design, buy a fully charged battery from selected Apple shops and plug it into your iPhone lightning port, go from 0 to 100 in no time ( iBattery, iBatteryToPort cable, iBatteryToPort adapter sold separately for just $500 )

                        They may out-price Samsung with that.

                          Also sell it unlocked and have every currently available band you can put on a phone. Otherwise one grand isn't worth it.

                              Like that pic

                                And the sad reality is, the higher the price, the more people will be interested in buying it.

                                  That thumbnail tho. Lol

                                    It will be the original iPhone rebranded as the iRetro! With all the original hardware, iFans will eat it up! It will be the best selling iPhone ever!

                                      Sounds like unnecessary controversy. Really, regardless of whatever brand you prefer something at $1K USD without any add-ins isn't worth it.

                                        That image is priceless. I'll have to wait and see if it is indeed worth the cash.
