iPad 4 prices to be slashed: Report
We all know that iPhone 5C sales have been down and the
phone will simply not sell unless Apple drops its pricing strategy for
the so-called budget iPhone.
Well, now Apple could just be doing that.
It plans to introduce an 8GB iPhone 5C and the price could be reasonably lower compared to the $549 (around Dh2,199 in the UAE), it is charging now for the 16GB model.
If reports are to be believed Apple has already moved stocks of an all new model into select retail stores.
Pundits are claiming that the launch could be as early as today.
The move comes amidst rising stock of unsold iPhone 5C models.
Retailers in the UAE too have been complaining of unsold stock although iPhone 5S has been doing exceptionally well in terms of sales.
Pricing seem to be the crucial issue as the difference between the two models is just around Dh500.
A 16GB iPhone 5C can be purchased for around Dh2,000 while the iPhone 5S is priced at Dh2,500.
“Pay another Dh500 and you will get a much advanced phone. We have quite a few stocks of 5C remaining,” a retailer had recently .
End of the line for Apple iPhone 5C; price crash?
Tech blog 9to5Mac is also reporting that Apple could slash the pricing of the iPad 4.
Apple is currently selling the iPad 2 for $399 (or Dh1549 here in the UAE).
Apple could replace the iPad 2 with the iPad 4 for $449. The blog has also posted pictures of the iPad 4 stocks that have been moved into retail stores in the US. Currently the iPad 4 is not available for sale on the Apple store.
