Even a year after its launch, the iPhone 4 is still a best seller. Apple managed to drive the revenue through the introduction of the long-overdue model in white again.
Meanwhile, the precious smartphone, which already enjoys market leadership since 2007, from almost any mobile phone provider will be offered. The price has remained strong despite competition from the Android camp very stable – Apple can afford to give. Those who are just looking for a new smartphone, must decide accordingly: spend a great deal of money into an iPhone 4, at a cheaper Android device or wait until fall?
The answer can not be attributed to a flat rate. First, there would be the iPhone 5: The device is certainly-when exactly do currently only manufacturer Apple. Industry observers originally expected with the normal annual cycle and therefore a release in summer 2011. Nothing came of it. We have the 5th September as the launch date for the U.S. and the 5th October for the global market in an interview. Very likely in any case that Apple is the top-selling Christmas sales will not be missed. The chances of getting an iPhone in the fourth quarter, five are therefore high.
Another issue is the antenna problem, since the launch of the iPhone makes a 4 “Antennagate” the round. Short explanation: The antenna is sitting in the smartphone. The user accesses the device along this framework, preferably with the left hand, the reception quality may deteriorate significantly. The so-called “bumpers” – a sort of rubber coating for the body – to repair the problem fairly easily, but disfigure the beautiful design of the premium phone.
