Apple exterminates plans for a cheap iPhone

We didnt get where we are today by making things affordable

Apple is about to spike plans to make a cheaper, plastic iPhone 6C.

The Tame Apple Press became all moist when the news that Apple was going to make a a plastic bodies and 4in screens in an iPhone 6C?  This would mean that Apple would not only have three phones coming out this year, but actually have one that it could put into cheaper markets.

We have heard that logic before, and it never really worked. And now it looks like Apple has abandoned the plan (if it even had it in the first place).

A marketing firm claims it has seen testing data for just two new iPhones, which strongly suggests that an iPhone 6C launch is not imminent.

Fisku, had access to data that shows identifiers for models in testing. Its logs recently showed two new iPhones, which showed up as "iphone8,1" and "iphone8,2" - most likely codenames for the upcoming iPhone 6s (or 7, depending on Apple's choice of moniker) and the iPhone 6s Plus (or 7 Plus).

If the phone is launched it might be at a much later date, but so far it looks like Apple will stick to launching just two models.
