Christian Post Report – With escalating rumors about Apple’s reported intent to launch three new iPhone models this year, a leak of an alleged iPhone 6C has been released online pointing towards a possible 4-inch screen smartphone in the works.
A host of speculations have been surrounding Apple’s supposedly unveiling of three new handset models for 2015. Among the smartphones said to be in development is a 4-inch iPhone 6C variant, whose alleged rear shell image has been leaked on the Internet.
Smartphone users are expecting refreshed new versions of Apple’s iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus in the latter half of 2015. According to reports that have emerged lately, the company will be unveiling a smaller 4-inch handset, as well.
News of a smaller model has been deemed more credible as the Cupertino, California multinational’s iPhone 4C has just reached the two year mark and is due for an upgraded version. While Apple gained new customers and broke their six-month sales records by upping screen size for the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus to 4.7 inches and 5.5 inches, respectively, insiders say the company doesn’t intend to abandon their 4-inch screen handset line entirely.
Images leaked of a smaller smartphone’s rear view featuring a colorful plastic shell has been making the rounds of the Internet. According to rumors, the new 4-inch iPhone will still be imbued with full specs comparable to its larger counterparts.
It is likely to be equipped with NFC connectivity and Apple’s new standard of TouchID sensor. With a plastic shell instead of the metal chassis sported by the company’s other higher-range models, the 4-inch iPhone 6C variant may fall in the mid-range level.
Based on the leaked photos, the 4-inch iPhone features a number of cutouts in its new shell, making a departure from the iPhone 5C. It displays a pill-shaped new cutout reminiscent of the iPhone 6C, and eight instead of four speaker holes at the bottom, just to the left of its Lightning port.
While the leaked images of the rear shell remain unconfirmed, it is still quite possible Apple is developing a new iPhone 6C that may make a possible debut at the Electronics Entertainment Expo 2015 this June.
