New pictures leak comparing Apple iPhone Lite and Apple iPhone 5

We recently saw a few pictures that compared what was purportedly the back of the Apple iPhone Lite with the back of the Apple iPhone 5. Since then, we also reported the latest news about the two different variants of the low-priced iPhone, each one with different internal specs and heading for different markets.

The cheaper model is rumored to be given the code name Zenvo and will feature a Samsung produced H5P dual-core processor, 1GB of RAM, and support for FDD 4G connectivity and Bluetooth 4.0. The other model, code named Zagato/Bertone, will have an H6P processor and supports TDD 4G LTE for the Chinese market.

Now, we have another series of photographs showing the Apple iPhone Lite (not sure which of the two models this is) next to the Apple iPhone 5. We also have one new rumor related to the next iteration of the regular priced iPhone, which is that it will not be available in black or white. According to the report, which we cast upon with a very suspicious eye, the Apple iPhone 5S or iPhone 6 will be available in only grey, silver or gold.

Seeing as the Nokia Lumia 520 is killing the iPhone in emerging markets it seems like a good idea for Apple to do this.. I'm interested in the bang for the buck compared to the 520... I'm sure that the "iPL" will be a good device if Apple makes it, but price point, and performance, are the key here... Do we even know if this iPhone is meant for the US market❔

Maybe the picture just doesn't do it justice... but I really expected a lot better. Even the color... that thing is hideous. I had to look at the calendar just to make sure we weren't coming up on April 1st.

This looks cheaply made, but hopefully has not not lost some of the key specs

This is a VERY wise decision on apple's part. Think about all the kids 12-16 with cell phones, most probably want an iPhone, but might not get it because parents dont want to pay the price. This could definitely win a few customers for Apple.

It's one thing to be cheap in price but cheap in materials sucks. HTC One is premium material cheap price only $599 cheaper than galaxy s4 and only $20 more than galaxy s3.

Are they thieving off of HTC with the white strips across the back of the phone?

With all of these leaks I'm actually starting to believe a 4.3" iPhone is possible. They will use the iPhone lite to maintain their one-handed usability stance and market the 5S as the premium device.

they won't change the screen size again for a long while. third party developers for Apple products are still wheeling off of the bump to 4.0".

The developers that haven't changed (I have over 100 top apps on my iPhone 5, and none are letterboxed) are just lazy. It is literally a change to a couple lines of code.

I don't understand why apple would even consider making an iphone with that cheap aesthetic material, unless of course it is more likely to be aimed at 3rd world countries.

Comparing the iPhone Lite with the iPhone 5. It's like comparing a mustard flavored soap with a smartphone.

The yellow one looks like it has a cheap $2 ebay case on it.

It has to be at least that of the iPhone 4S but with 1 GB of RAM, or else it will fail.

Nada, i don't iPhone lite will have 1GB RAM... That will kill iPhone 4(S) customers.

But iOS 7 needs 1 GB of RAM now because it finally supports multitasking, even Apple knows that. If they put less than that, then they are intentionally putting a drawback on their users.

How will you explain iOS 7 coming to 4S then?

That's exactly what I mean. My friend has had iOS 7 on his 4S since release, and it lags consistently. I know it's still in beta, but it hasn't gotten any better even with 2 new updates. A true multitasking OS just can't run smoothly on 512 MB of RAM without clearing out background processes constantly.
