    Apple must not make low cost phones, if this is true, apple will just be like other smartphone manufacturers, they must remain at high end bracket, as an apple user, i kinda don't like it

        apple will not make a low cost iphone, i can't see how could they since their iphone 5 is outdated and well behind the s4 and xperia z and behind a bunch of other phones. seeing the phones apple made and their prices i can only conclude that a low cost phone for apple would mean a feature phone since their pretious iphone 5 is already simple enough, and that feature phone would be sold for 300 euros or 50 euros on a 2 year contract of at least 20 euros per month. i'm not trolling, maybe not a feature phone but seriously look at iphone 5, how could they make something that would be even less innovative and less performant?

            Now the other vendors should think their product quality,coz if APPLE will jump to the lower end market as said then APPLE WILL BE THE KING OF SMARTPHONE as well as THE LOWER END MARKET.Keep going APPLE.

                  Excepting the color, looks no different than the regular one.

                  That's innovation.

                      What about cost......Apple isn't popular among us (Indians) because it's too costly...if this phone get a affordable price...then it'll gotta be a super hit

                            When profit alone doesn't make you happy, what do you do?
                            Tackle something you're not worried about, market share.

                            Apple's strategy is beyond anything that the annoying Parrots (especially non-independent media) can figure out.

                            Apple's strategy:
                            1) Feed the public convoluted information. ---> Misdirect the competitors.
                            2) Let Apple customers hear what they want to hear. ---> Loyalty earned.
                            3) Market aggressively. ---> Brainwashed sheep = profit!
                            4) Price products 3x times their worth. ---> Premium price = premium device = $$$
                            5) Look how cool you look with that device that has the apple logo. Now you are part of the elite secret society, but guess what, your apple device works even better with an another apple device.

                              Naah!!! that is a good'ol Chinese replica of that i-Thingy, if at all Apple decide to make a cheap iPhone some of the obvious things they are gonna drop are the LED flash, secondary mic and of-course the color options!
