Why apple discontinued iPhone 5 instead of older iPhone 4s?

Nobody wants iPhone 5 because they can purchase iPhone 5S instead, but they can still sell iPhone 4S for cheap.

Ask apple about it they might have a better ans. Aur 5c kaisa hai? Abhi bhi kahoge ki plasticy hai aur 4 inch bahut hai?

It is a business policy man.

May be they looking for high sales on quantity

you want more specification about iPhone 5 16GB and iPhone 4s

5S is the same price as 5 was and 5S is FAR better, no reason to have 5 anymore.

  • Will the iphone 4 be discontinued soon? I'm willing to purchase an iphone 4, but I've called many shops and they said that they've stopped selling the iphone 4 and only had the iphone 4s and iphone 5 in store. I'm not so keen on buying the iphone 4 if its going to be discontinued in a couple of months. Is it about time that shops stopped selling the iphone 4, as it came out in 2010, and there are 2 newer phones after this?
  • Why was the iPhone 5 discontinued? I was going to go get one as an upgrade from my iPhone 4S but when I went there the only phones on display were the iPhone 4S, iPhone 5c and iPhone 5s. I asked one of the workers & she told me that there are none in stock. I then asked her when they would be back in stock and she replied "Probably never because the iPhone 5 was discontinued by Apple." When I asked her why she said that she doesn't know. Why did they discontinue a great phone?
  • My iphone 5 broke, will apple replace it even though it was discontinued? My iphone 5 broke, and since apple discontinued the iphone 5 would they give me a different phone or do they still make them for those who need replacements? I have insurance i'm just wondering whether it would be replaced or not.
  • Is time lapse only available for the iPhone 5S? Or is it also for the (discontinued) iPhone 5? There are many videos around the web about time lapse in iOS 8, but they only seem to be showcasing the 5S, I want to know if it will be for the 5 too.
