  • But that 4G network connection may prove a major difference between the two. 
  • Unless Apple has made some sort of secret breakthrough, [the faster LTE network] might make a Verizon iPhone too thick and power-hungry for Apple's demands this year. Apple may skip it for now and wait for smaller and cooler chipsets," Segan noted.
  • That faster connection really pays off for anyone surfing a lot of complicated websites or viewing movies over Netflix, he said. 
  • But in the end, pricing, a final feature set and the design is all up to the carriers. "The mainstream price for a smartphone is $199 with contract," Segan noted. "We're all hoping for $199."
