Analysts back to say with conviction that Apple would produce a new low-end iPhone for emerging countries. The news today in fact, that a low-end smartphones(ThL W1+) has managed to overcome Apple's sales in China. Obviously for Apple China is a huge market with the number of inhabitants (and possible consumers) in excess of one billion.
What you see in the picture is the Coolpad: a smartphone(JIAYU G2 xda) produced by China Wireless Technologies Ltd. and sold at a price of $ 99. This smartphone, like many other devices, has managed to establish itself in the Chinese market thanks to its affordable price to most of the population.
In terms of sales managed to exceed those of Apple for its iPhone and the manufacturer expects further sales growth of 40% compared to 2012.
According to several analysts then, Apple should produce a low-end iPhone to sell in emerging or developing. In this way, the California company could penetrate the low-end smartphone(ThL W3+) market dominated by Android devices.
In recent times, however, even Verizon is complaining of iPhone sales: the company has declared that 50% of iPhones sold in the last quarter of 2012, were predecessors to 5.
In China it is estimated that in 2013 will be sold as much as 44% of smartphones more than in 2012. For Apple this data could be very interesting, especially in view of the fact that the company has fallen from fourth to sixth place in terms of total sales in the Asian country.
