You only live twice: Apple may resurrect iPhone 4

You only live twice: Apple may resurrect iPhone 4
Guess who's back, back again

Update: Having looked into the Brazilian listing, and speaking to a journalist living in Brazil, TechRadar has had confirmation that the iPhone 4 has apparently never been off sale in the country, which suggests the stories coming out of India are probably being seeded by re-sellers looking for a publicity blitz.

Original story

Already on sale?

Brazil, India and Indonesia are apparently the three territories in line for some iPhone 4 love - although a quick look on the Brazilian Apple store reveals that the phone is on sale.

It's not clear if this iPhone 4 listing has always been on the site and Brazil still has some stock left, or if it has been recently re-added to the site in light of the phone going back into production.

We have approached Apple for more information, and we'll update this article if we hear back from the Cupertino firm.

If Apple really is rebooting the iPhone 4, does this mean we could see other iDevices brought back from the dead? Perhaps the iPhone 5 will re-emerge to challenge the 5C - we can but dream.

  • Never mind the past, what does the iPhone 6 hold for us?
