Unlike some regions, 5G connectivity hasn’t rolled out in a lot of countries, making it pointless to launch a 5G iPhone 12 in these areas. This would give the 4G-only iPhone 12 unveiling a lot more relevance, but according to the latest report, this model, or models, depending on what Apple wants, is rumored to arrive in 2021.
So Far, Cheapest Non-5G Version of iPhone 12 Is Rumored to Cost $549
A research note by Wedbush Securities Analyst Dan Ives that was spotted by Business Insider states that Apple intends on launching a 4G-only variant of the iPhone 12 that’s also expected to be a lot cheaper. This means that instead of four models arriving later this year, Apple may have plans to release a total of five different versions. However, considering that the cheapest version of the iPhone 12 is rumored to start from $549, we’re not sure what price Apple will target for this, especially considering that the company is also selling a 4G-only 2020 iPhone SE for $399.
However, it’s also possible that one of the iPhone 12 family members is delayed and will most likely be arriving in 2021. At this point though, Apple might launch a 4G-only version of the 5.4-inch iPhone 12 since that happens to be the only affordable offering at this point that will allow Apple to penetrate emerging smartphone markets. There’s also a possibility that with the launch of the 4G-only iPhone 12, Apple reduces the price of the current-generation iPhone SE, as one rumor pointed out that the tech giant may reduce the price of this handset by $100 next year.
Of course, since this latest info surrounding the iPhone 12 is a little different and inconsistent with what we’ve been hearing for a couple of months now, we’ll advice our readers to treat all of this with a pinch of salt. According to a previous report, Apple will announce the new iPhone family in September, so there’s only next month remaining to see what the company has in store for us, so stay tuned.
