iPhone 5C spotted in new high- resolution pictures, expected price leaks

The purported low-cost iPhone just
doesn't stop when it comes to making
appearances online.
New high resolution photos of the
alleged device have surfaced online,
once again, courtesy Sonny Dickson who
had earlier shared a video of a
partially assembled low-cost iPhone
(also identified as iPhone 5C).
Dickson has posted an entire picture
gallery featuring close up shots of the
low cost iPhone's back and sides, in
addition to photos of its internals.
The device pictured matches the one
that previously appeared in high
resolution images and video
.
The pictures show the same plastic
polycarbonate body back panel that
appeared in recent leaks, in glossy
White, complete with a round camera
lens and LED flash, Apple logo and
iPhone branding.
At the bottom of the phone, there's a
small hole for the second microphone,
next to the 3.5mm headset jack port,
two screw holes with the Lightning
connector port at the centre, and four
holes for the speaker towards bottom
right.
It's worth pointing out that similar to
previous appearances, the shell does not
have any buttons or even a SIM-tray,
though it does have holes at the
designated places in line with the
iPhone 5. It also doesn't have any
certification logos. Perhaps the device
is still a stage away from the final
product. The pictures of the internals
also don't reveal much as they don't
feature the main board.
While the device is said to be the low
cost iPhone, it's still difficult to
confirm if Apple will indeed launch it
this fall when it's expected to
announce new devices.
It's also being rumoured that Apple will
launch the phone at a price of 3000
yuan ($490 or Rs. 30,000 approximately)
. According to a post on Sina Weibo by
C technology (via PhoneArena), as
expected, the low cost iPhone might not
be a budget device though it will be
priced relatively less compared to the
iPhone 5.
