Though I was impressed with Apple's iPhone XR, particularly the smartphone's 720p LCD display, the smartphone remains pricey in Canada when purchased outright.
It'll be interesting to see if this iPhone XR clear case from Apple is immune to the common problem associated with clear cases-looking dark, dirty and disgusting after six months of use.
That source referred to the reaction within Apple as a "fire drill", and said that it led quickly to strategy changes.
Now, in what might arguably represent the latest of Apple's struggles to jump-start new iPhone XS and XR sales, a report published this week by Bloomberg notes that the company reassigned several of its marketing staff from the individual projects they were working on, to focusing exclusively on iPhone marketing.
The Clear Case for iPhone XR is available to order from the Apple Online Store today, priced at $39 with free shipping.
Last December, Apple was caught in a storm after it confessed that it was slowing down the performance of older iPhone models.
But as the footnote at the bottom of the site explains, " $449 reflects [the] price of iPhone XR after trade-in of iPhone 7 Plus ... That, of course, doesn't mean it's selling well compared with models in previous years. Apple says its cheaper iPhone XR has been the best-selling iPhone since its launch. That's significantly lower than its otherwise substantial, yet lower than iPhone Xs, price of $749.
Those of you that already have an iPhone XR, you've likely chosen one of the following phone colors: white, black, blue, coral, yellow, and (PRODUCT) RED.
