After the iOS7 presentation, there was a rash of further rumours about the new Apple smartphone. Everyone assume the creation of a cheaper variant of the iPhone, but there were also rumours of a model with a larger screen...
Reuters, relying on "well-informed sources", publishes rumours of a large-screen Apple smartphones suggesting that later this year or at the latest in 2014 Apple will present us phones with 4.7 and 5.7 inches screens. It sounds a little less credible rumours of a cheaper, costing $ 99 iPhone in a plastic casing. Its trial production has reportedly continues – and according to Reuters - between October and December of this year there will have already been finished 20 million units. The trial part was supposed to appear June, but the provider of plastic part of the casing has unspecified problems in the process of colouring materials. The casing will be available in several colours, but the specimens were not quite as good as Apple's standards.

Rumors about the production of low-priced iPhone are also confirmed by the publication of Commercial Times, which says that suppliers of components are already stepping up production processes. The newspaper writes even, who is responsible for each element. TSMC produces processors in 28 nm technology, while Largan Precision - camera modules. Foxconn deals with batteries and bodies, and Taiflex Scientific flexible connecting strips. Among the suppliers There are mentioned companies Chipbond, Kinsus, SPIL, Texas Instruments and Renesas Electronics. This information shows that indeed we soon expect a new model. And as far as I am able to believe in creation of the cheap iPhone, then a 5.7 inch Apple smartphone somehow cannot break up in my imagination. But in every rumour there is some truth...
