@monkbent You mean storage by that I assume, and not that it also has less RAM? Cause that would be even more interesting.

@darkarconio yeah, storage. Bad wording by me
-
@monkbent Have you seen reports of pricing? I'm curious if it'd compete with the 4s for the $0 price point, or add a new $50 price point. -
@darkarconio linked article says 60 euros cheaper
-
@monkbent Guess apple isn't waiting for product launches to change its pricing. 4s moving to $449/$399 soon, followed by 5c next launch?

@monkbent So great when you’ll only be able to keep 50 photos and a video on your device because 8 GB are basically nothing -
@viticci cheap people are cheap - 1 more reply

@monkbent I don't know - 8gb will be a shitty user experience for anyone who takes photos/videos. Not great long term strategy. - End of conversation

@monkbent This is following the normal track, 2nd phone falls to 3rd position w/less memory. The 4S dropped to 8 GB when it was demoted -
@ampressman good point. It's never happened this quickly though. -
@monkbent I think all the stars are lining up for much earlier new iPhones this year than in ’12 and ‘13

@monkbent could the 8gb iPhone 5C be cheaper to manufacture than the 8gb iPhone 4s? Maybe that could be the reason.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@monkbent So far the 5C seems to have been very successful at getting people to buy a 5S rather than the $100 cheaper 5 they would have had. -
@monkbent Possibly Apple are just gradually testing how far down they can push the price on a plastic device without hitting high end sales?

@monkbent 8GB is worthless and needs to be abandoned. So many storage issues with 8GB devices that sour the iOS experience.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@monkbent Does anyone even buy the 8 GB? Or is it just a price to get people in the door?Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@monkbent I wonder if this is a hold-over until the 16GB model goes free on contract, and a move to get all iPhones on lightning.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
