White iPhone 4: Delayed, Canceled, or Both

According to Reuters, the white iPhone 4 has been put off until next Spring. According to Boy Genius Report, it's been canned altogether. Who should we believe? Honestly, it doesn't really matter at this point.

One thing both sources agree on is that we're not going to hear another peep about thewhite iPhone 4 until next March. That's when Apple will either finally sell it, or push back the release date again until summer and quietly let it die. But with Apple releasing a new iPhone like clockwork every June/July, even if the iPhone 4 does hit the shelves it'll be old news—though appealingly discounted—in a matter of months.

Who would buy one then instead of just sticking it out for iPhone 5? And what incentive is there for Apple to crank on a lame duck device?

So for all the rumors about why and when and how the white iPhone 4 might or might not come out, the calendar's been pushed so far back that by now the point's pretty much moot.

I dont see why they couldnt just release an iphone with a different colour when they released the first iphone 4, i mean..
its not like it takes any skill to change a colour...

This is pretty fail, it isn't terribly difficult to change a color on a phone. Good post though, cheers mate.

Sebastian said...

I've always been more of a blackberry phone, which comes with quite of bit of customization. So suck it iPhone fans! ;P

i think they should just make a phone and quit making revisions every 6 months. i would be pissed off if i had bought an iphone when it first came out and now there is so many revisions of it.

Jimmy Volmer said...

do not want

Kichuwa said...

and yet... nothing of value was lost.

SituationAbs said...

Not buying any Mac products anyway.

Anonymous said...

bleh apple products

MTL beer said...

They needed to release this months ago.

Bob lehcror said...

I prefer the 3g model.
Iphone 4 seems too square and stuff
Mostly same features so I wonder why they bothered

If you really want a white iphone at this point you may as well just get a black one and paint it

OneFourSeven said...

Every time they release a new iPhone, they keep last year's model in the lineup as the entry price point choice, usually for $99 with new agreement. I wouldn't be surprised to see the white iPhone 4 come out at that price next July.

Binary Soul said...

At first I kinda thought I didn't care, but the white looks awful anyways. It reminds me of Apple 10 years ago, not now when I actually WANT to own some Apple products lol

I never understood the point of the white iPhones they wanted to bring out...I love the old black ones. Same with my 5th gen iPod it's black and prefer it that way.

I don't see why the color is such a big deal, shouldn't it be just as easy for them to release a variety of colors? The difficult part to make is on the inside
