http://cdn.macrumors.com/article-new/2013/09/iphone5c1-250x214.jpgKGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo issued a **te to investors on Wednesday, a copy of which was obtained by MacRumors, reiterating that Apple is unlikely to launch a new 4-inch iPhone this year. Kuo, who has a respectable track record at reporting on Apple's upcoming product plans, added that Apple will instead likely release a new 4-inch iPhone with Apple Pay compatibility in 2016."iPhone 5S still going strong; next 4-inch likely in 2016. Shipments of 5S are still going strong at 5-7mn units every quarter, an impressive level at such a mature stage of the product cycle. Momentum is being sustained by a more affordable price and the product?s outstanding design. But we still believe it?s necessary for Apple to have a new 4-inch iPhone because: (1) it will be key to extending momentum in the 4-inch category; and (2) it could complete the Apple Pay ecosystem, assuming it is equipped with NFC. We predict a launch in 2016."The well-informed analyst claims that the iPhone 5c will likely reach the end of its product cycle later this year, with the iPhone 5s becoming the new entry-level device in Apple's smartphone lineup once the so-called "iPhone 6s" and "iPhone 6s Plus" are released this September. For **w, the oft-rumored "iPhone 6c," speculated to be an iPhone 5s with plastic casing, is **t planned.

Foxconn is expected to be the primary manufacturer of the 4-inch iPhone in 2016.http://rss.feedsportal.com/c/35070/f/648326/s/45a3fb39/sc/15/mf.gif
