The existence of the cheaper iPhone was also confirmed by a China Labor Watch report which criticised the labour practices of the one of Apple’s suppliers Pegatron. The report noted: At this moment, in Shanghai, China, workers in Apple’s supplier factory Pegatron are monotonously working long overtime hours to turn out a scaled-back, less expensive version of the iPhone.  (For more details on the report click here )  If the latest rumours are true, the ‘iPhone 5 lite’ doesn’t appear to be drastically different from the iPhone 5 except that it may come at a cheaper price.
