Asian suppliers have started manufacturing a lower-priced version of its hot-selling iPhone 4 with a smaller 8 gigabyte flash drive according to two people with knowledge of the matter. The flash drive is being manufactured by a Korean company, to reveal name of the company, later on Apple revealed that from Japan's Toshiba and South Korea's Samsung Electronics, because this information was not been made public.
The sources mentioned that the existing iPhone 4 was first launched in June 2010 with 16 GB and 32 GB versions, with a white version added to the lineup in April. The 8GB version is expected to launch within weeks.
Apple, which demands high levels of secrecy and security from suppliers and employees, declined to comment. Samsung also declined to comment.
Some analysts mentioned that it is the cheaper 8GB iPhone 4, could help Apple boost sales in emerging markets.
Coming to the price, it is hard to go below $200, so Apple will still need a completely new phone with low specifications for the emerging markets.
