A China Mobile roadmap of the cellular company’s future plans reveals a reference to an upcoming 4” iPhone coming in April 2016, Chinese website MyDrivers reports. The report refers to the rumored iPhone as the “iPhone 7c” — it seems unlikely that Apple would release a “7c” before releasing any other version of iPhone 7, however. While the name is still in question — iPhone 6c seems to be a strong possibility — this is just the latest in a recent line of reports saying Apple would indeed release a new 4” iPhone in the new year. It’s believed the new iPhone will resemble an “upgraded iPhone 5s,” and will have an aluminum body, instead of the iPhone 5c’s plastic exterior. It’s also been reported that Apple is planning a March event, in which the company may unveil this new iPhone along with the Apple Watch 2.
