Apple is definitely doing everything to stay on top of the leader of the mobile phone market. From releasing a variety of new iPhones to the introduction of the new IOS for those devices, Apple is the king of the Mobile market. Now the king is about to change the way the IPhone will look like and its feel in the near future. The company is providing new cloths for its iPhones to wear into the market.


The chief executive of Catcher Technology, a company that supplies lot of parts to Apple said that, Apple Inc. looks poised to make a strategic deviation of iPhone casings to glass. As of now, Apple used metal casing. Apple wants a new structural countenance, hence the need for fresh make up.
Rumors across the media is that Catcher Technology, the Taiwanese metal casing maker could suffer a loss of Apple business by the year 2017 to China’s Biel Crystal Manufactory and Lens Technology. The two companies are already engaged in supplying glass screen covers for iPhones.

“As far as I know, only one [iPhone] model will adopt glass casing next year,” Horng who is the chief executive of Catcher Technology revealed to reporters after the annual shareholder meeting on Thursday. “I don’t think this move will have an impact on Catcher’s revenue as glass casing still needs a durable metal frame which requires advanced processing technology and would not be cheaper than the current model.”

So with just one iPhone spotting the glass frame, it is more of a test to sell how the market will react to it. But definitely, it will be another classy iPhone.

One big reason for this possible shift of Apple to glass casings is the need to tailor new unique looks for iPhones in a smartphone market which is already getting overcrowded, according to Jeff Pu, who is an analyst at Yuanta Investment Consulting.

For Africans, the price of the glassy iPhone will determine if it will be accepted by the market as most African countries continue to battle their free falling economies.
