Has finally come true: Apple has announced officially its iPhone event update after leaked details three days ago. Some customers have even started to receive emails encouraging them to come to an Apple Store U.S. to improve their phone. The movement should motivate a sales increase in the official Apple stores, which Tim Cook seeks to achieve for some time.

 Customers are entitled to participate in this event can recycle your old iPhone and get a discount to buy an iPhone 5S or an iPhone 5C. The discount will be $ 99 if we deliver an iPhone 4 and $ 199 if we exchanged an iPhone 4s. Seldom had seen and discounts on Apple.

So far this campaign will not leave the United States, and depending on how it turns out maybe it stays there or goes in some other countries. But the truth is that it is a good way to release stocks in the stores a few months of launching the next generation of iPhones.

Apple stops offering the iPhone 4 in India

Add to Flipboard Magazine.

Earlier this year Apple decided to re-launch the iPhone 4 in India in an attempt to maintain market share in the phone market. They did it through the iPhone 4 (8GB) and today we know that have decided to stop offering the phone for no apparent logical reason. 

The relaunch of the iPhone 4 in the Asian country was partly due to the agreement with the national operators to offer their customers an iOS device at a low price. This agreement expired a few days ago and although it could be the reason for the withdrawal, it is strange that as interesting as the Indian market Cupertino were not trying to continue to provide a device for maintaining the loyalty of brand users.

What can be happening then? Well clearly the iPhone 6. Manufacturing testing of the new device are everywhere, which means that Apple's factories are engaged in the production of the iPhone 6, in addition to other earlier versions are still sold in the rest of world. The lack of stock of iPhone 4 and the inability to continue manufacturing it due to the new version would be a perfectly logical and normal explanation, which would have led to this recall.

What might be Apple's strategy in India now? Further progress in the device chain and put the iPhone 4S as input device combined with agreements with Indian operators. While watching the above strategies, for this to happen the launch of the iPhone 6 will have to have been previously made ​​to not cause further devaluation in previous versions.
