Apple To Launch Sprint iPhone By Christmas

Apple has already launched the Verizon iPhone 4 few months ago and it was a great one. Today analysts say that Apple is about to launch its iPhone on the American wireless carrier Sprint. This would happen by this Christmas.

Citadel Securities analyst Shing Yin this morning writes that it is increasingly likely that there will be an iPhone from Apple (AAPL) for Sprint-Nextel (S), especially considering that with the inauguration of Verizon Communications (VZ) tiered pricing for data tomorrow, Sprint will be the sole remaining national carrier with an unlimited data plan offering, something desirable to Apple, he believes.

With lower prices on plans, a Sprint iPhone “could offer an attractive proposition for more price-conscious users (a demographic that we think is increasingly important to Apple following the rise of Android),” and “could be a relatively stronger seller than the Verizon iPhone,” writes Yin.

We’re expecting to see more from Apple. The big one we’re waiting for now is the iPhone 5.
