Canadian mobile carrier Telus will reportedly soon stop selling the 32GB and 64GB models of Apple's iPhone 5.
A leaked image allegedly from the carrier shows the 32GB and 64GB models will be discontinued on Sept. 28, according to MobileSyrup.

It is uncertain if the inventory leak is accurate or exclusive to Telus.
The image did not feature any information about the 16GB variant of the iPhone, but one can assume the model will continue to sell past the Sept. 28 date.
If Telus is indeed dropping the 32GB and 64GB models of the iPhone 5, it would corroborate earlier reports that the iPhone 5's production would cease this year.
KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo stated in August that the iPhone 5 would reach end-of-life status with the introduction of the long-rumored new low-cost iPhone, which some have named the "iPhone 5C."
As Latinos Post reported, Apple has confirmed an event for Sept. 10. The event was confirmed on Sept. 3 with the tagline "This should brighten everyone's day."
The report comes as the price of the fifth-generation smartphone was reduced at Walmart.
As Latinos Post reported, the retailer recently adjusted the iPhone 5's price to $98. The offer, however, is only available in Walmart stores and not online. Customers seeking to take advantage of the Walmart offer must be eligible to upgrade or sign a two-year contract with AT&T, Sprint, or Verizon Wireless. Although T-Mobile now carries the iPhone 5, the Walmart offer doesn't include the fourth largest U.S. carrier in the deal.
The iPhone 5 features a screen size of 4-inches with 1,136x640 pixels at 326 pixels per inch. The internal storage models come with 1GB of RAM but no microSD card slot. The wireless connectivity for the latest Apple smartphone includes Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n, Wi-Fi hotspot, Bluetooth version 4.0 and USB version 2.0. The camera specifications include an 8-megapixel rear-facing camera with 3,264x2,448 pixels and a front-facing camera with 1.2 megapixels. The smartphone, which launched in September 2012, has 1,440mAh to provide up to 225 hours on standby and eight for talk time when under a 3G network.
