New iPhone Failure Report Reveals Apple's Lost Advantage
Across the three main regions of Asia, North America, and Europe, Blancco saw a similar failure rate of Android and iOS handsets, 14 percent and 12.5 percent respectively. Because failures tend to take some time to show up , the iPhone 8, 8 Plus and iPhone X handsets are not yet included in this chart, and the iPhone 7 family is arguably just entering the awkward 18-24 month old period. Currently the iPhone 7 handsets are sitting around the average failure rate, but the iPhone 6 and 6S are notably higher at 21 percent and 18 percent. Should Cupertino be happy matching the 'average' failure rate of the industry or will it be looking to be seen as a more reliable handset?

according to Let's break them down:#1 – Colourful Past, Colourful FutureKuo states Apple will return to its iPhone 5C strategy this year by releasing a 'budget iPhone X' model in multiple colours. Consistently reliable tipster Steve Hemmerstoffer (aka @Onleaks) adds to Kuo's report saying Apple is also considering yellow and pink. Kuo's report says Apple will introduce dual-sim dual-standby (DSDS) functionality for the iPhone X Plus (no word on other models) allowing users to run two networks simultaneously. Kuo believes Apple will price the iPhone X Plus at the original iPhone X price of just under $1,000 (assume $999), with the second generation iPhone X sitting below it, while the budget iPhone X will be just $700. Given the budget iPhone X (my guess is it will simply be called 'iPhone' like the entry level 'MacBook' and 'iPad') will sport an (almost) identical design to its premium stablemates, a $300 saving should have widespread appeal.New iPhone Leak Highlights Apple's Risky Decision
Apple is reportedly looking to extend its partnership with Wistron this year to assemble its new iPhones. These won't be the only areas where Apple is squeezing suppliers to increase its own margins and average revenue per handset. Given the static sales of the iPhone, Apple's only choice to maintain growth is to have a more efficient and cheaper supply chain, so these moves make sense on a financial front. What it does do is it affects the simplicity of the iPhone.
