Apple has not released any official sales figures yet, but the reports are still trending downwards for the iPhone 5c. Sina Technology reports that both retail and resale prices have continued to drop in China, and demand is still not matching the discounts. One mobile phone seller said that the iPhone 5s is selling at eight times the rate of the iPhone 5c, and in the city, “the gap is even greater.” This information comes right on the heels of the rumored gray market price drop and subsequent iPhone 5c production cut from last week. These corroborative reports were all tied together on Wednesday by a detailed account of which manufacturers would be cutting down on 5c manufacturing in the coming months.
