The iPhone 5 will be discontinued in the fall. Why?

IPhone 5 may be discontinued

According to ETNews, the in-cell technology of Apple's iPhone 5S touch screen is not suitable for small batch production, so Apple has to stop production of iPhone 5, to fully invest in iPhone 5S production. At the same time, the media also quoted people to disclose that Apple iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S two models will also be completely out of the market, the reason is that these two iPhones are not the latest Lightning interfaces.

However, it is impossible for Apple to sell only two iPhones in the market in the future, so this shutdown may only be temporary to ensure iPhone 5S production. The future fate of Apple's iPhone 5 is unknown, especially after the iPhone 5S and the cheap version of the iPhone are listed, whether there is still room for the iPhone 5 in the market depends on Apple's market layout. However, in general, if the cheap version of the iPhone is targeted at the low-end market, the iPhone 5 may replace the current position of the iPhone 4S, and the iPhone 5 S will focus on the high-end market.

The new server was officially released by the end of June September.

As for the release date of the iPhone 5S and the cheap version of the iPhone, there have been a wide variety of opinions. According to the latest research report by Ming-Chi Kuo, an investment company KGI Securities analyst, the cheap iPhone version will be officially released in early September, the iPhone 5S was postponed until the end of September due to production problems.

This rule was partially recognized by Walter Piecyk, an analyst at BTIG, an investment institution. In a latest investor report, the analyst pointed out that Apple's release of new autumn products will not be earlier than September 28, this is the deadline for Apple's financial report for the fourth quarter.
