The launch of Apple's 6.1-inch LCD display iPhone has been delayed by a month due to some problems in production, and the device may not go on sale until October.
According to a report in 9to5mac, Morgan Stanley's Katy Huberty, a noted Apple analyst, has suggested that the company is having problems with the LED backlighting system, which is believed to be key to the near-bezel-free design.
Apple is set to launch three iPhones this year- a follow up of the iPhone X, a top-end version of the iPhone X, and a cheaper 6.1-inch iPhone with LCD display.
The cheaper LCD-display device will cost between $600 and $700, which roughly translates to between Rs 40,000 and Rs 48,000, reports suggest.
