Apple has again delayed the release of the white iPhone 4 — this time until next spring.
The white model was due to have been released in July, but Apple put the date back to the end of the year, explaining that it had proved “more challenging to manufacture than we originally expected”.
The company offered an apology, but no explanation, for the latest delay.
“We’re sorry to disappoint customers waiting for the white iPhone again,” said Apple spokeswoman Trudy Muller.
Rumours and speculation about the white iPhone have been on Apple-oriented blogs for months, with explanations for its delay ranging from colour-matching problems to an issue with light leakage from the device’s backlight.
