Only days after Apple re-confirmed the white iPhone 4 would release this spring has it showed up at Verizon. 9to5Mac has managed to snag a screenshot of the Verizon internal system which shows the MC679 (one incremental code higher than MC678 which is the black iPhone 4).
White iPhone 4 or iPhone 5?
Nearly after 10 months of speculations, the white iPhone 4 will soon be available in stores. Unfortunately that doesn't mean the end of anxiety for Apple fans who had waited this long for the white version of the Apple phone. With the white iPhone 4 possibly going on sale within the next few weeks, many customers can expect to get it in their hands sometime in May. This of course is just a month away from Apple's WWDC where the iPhone 5 is expected to be launched.
So the question here is, is the white iPhone 4 a smart buy when there is the possibility that the iPhone 5 release date may just be a month apart. Possibly. IBTimes reports that " the delay already raised a lot of questions about the device, including the rumors that Apple will be charging a premium for the new device because of upgrades like improved camera and the new A5 chip... In short, it is not just the color."
So there may be a possibility that it will in fact cost more than the current black iPhone 4 while possibly offering some extras. If this is truly the case (and we should know in a few weeks), our suggestion would be to wait until WWDC to see if the iPhone 5 will be making its launch or holding off until fall. If its the latter then it may not be such a bad idea to spring for a white iPhone 4 with its incremental update. However if the iPhone 5 is set to release in June (and will most likely be available in white as well like we saw in the case of the iPad 2), then it may not be such a good idea to tie yourself down to a white iPhone 4 with a two-year plan so fast.
