The new iPhone either has or shortly will enter production, according to new reports.

The Wall Street Journal also believes that the long-rumoured low-spec entry-level iPhone (sometimes referred to as the iPhone Mini) is also in development, with Apple working with its manufacturing partners in Asia” on the project.
It says the phone will have a four-inch screen and switchable colour shells.
