Anonymous formclose (x)'N42' iPhone 5 to Reportedly Launch at Same Pricing as iPhone 4SFriday September 7, 2012 7:39 am PDT by Eric Slivka9to5Mac reports that it has received information indicating that Apple will be launching six models of the iPhone 5, code named "N42", at next week's media event. The information indicates that Apple will be releasing black and white versions at the same three prices carried by the iPhone 4S: $199/$299/$399.Here is the part codes matrix for the new iPhone launch from a source at a well-known U.S. retail chain: N42A-USA -$199, N42B-USA-$199, N42A-USA-$299, N42B-USA-$299, N42A-USA-$399, N42B-USA-$399. A + B signify black and white.

We also understand that this new iPhone N42 will come in the same prices as the iPhone 4S. With this, we speculate that the configurations will remain at the iPhone 4S’s 16GB, 32GB, and 64GB capacities.

Surely23 hours ago at 07:42 amI was really hoping that they would ditch the 16GB and have 32GB as the lowest capacity model.....Rating: 34 PositivesRBMaraman23 hours ago at 07:42 amIt's ridiculous if the storage stays the same. 32Gb should be the minimum at this point.Rating: 29 Positiveswkadamsjr23 hours ago at 07:47 amWhy? 16GB is fine for me. In fact, I'll be ordering three of them. Why would you want to take that option away from me?

Umm, he means the 32GB would replace the 16GB model, at the same price point. Would you not take double the storage for the same price?Rating: 21 Positivestheteeth23 hours ago at 07:43 amOh... ok.

Thanks for the um, news?Rating: 15 Positivesmantan23 hours ago at 07:44 amIt's ridiculous if the storage stays the same. 32Gb should be the minimum at this point.

Totally agree. with memory prices falling, this would have been a feature MUCH more used/appreciated by most users than a slightly better camera or some other trivial hardware update....Rating: 14 Positiveschakdey23 hours ago at 07:40 amis this a surprise?Rating: 13 Positivesbozzykid23 hours ago at 07:41 amWhat a shocker!Rating: 9 Positiveswkadamsjr23 hours ago at 07:44 amI hear Apple will also be designing the next iPhone. Will we get a news story about that too? :DRating: 8 PositivesDrJohnnyN23 hours ago at 07:43 amNo news here.Rating: 8 Positiveshamlin23 hours ago at 07:41 amI don't know why, but every time I look at the leaked iPhone 5 design, I cringe.
