It seems that in case of occurrence of a delay in the launch of the iPhone 5S, would be due to the implementation of the technology of digital fingerprint reader. The sensor will be located below the Home button. It is also said that the delay could be due to development problems iOS 7 might be related also with the fingerprint sensor.

Regarding the low-cost iPhone, it seems that the plastic housing of the device is still difficult to manufacture, while the delay of iPad Mini 2 is due to a problem with the screen, which would be a Retina type.
