The finger print reader alone is reason enough for me to upgrade. Anyone who thinks this is a gimmick is seriously deluded. I have to have passcode lock due to work policy and hopefully this will will make things much easier.

£469 for 5C £549 for 5S.

Wowzers.

 

[Nymins]

What do they mean they are killing the 5 but not the 4s

5C is basically the 5, so I guess they want people to buy it instead (no doubt the 5C is cheaper to produce than the 5) and there wouldn't be any point having both.

No pre-orders for the 5S?! What the hell? I guess I'll have to wait to pick up delivery of one after the weekend of release - There's no way in hell I'm going to the store on release day

As deluded as that crap called siri?

 

[Ryan-3]

Shouldn't the 5C be more like £429?

- I was thinking of the Alfa 4C there. I want that also.

 

[MonsterMoshi]

I only watched this in case there was mention of a new Mini iPad. Not interested in a iPhone till it gets a bigger screen.

Your on your own with that. (almost)

Shouldn't the 4C be more like £429?

Yes. That is way to much I believe

 

[Talbs13]

No Pre-Order sucks big hairy balls.

 

[Robbo]

The C in 5C definitely didn't stand for 'cheap'...

It's just a colourful alternative, really.

 

[Skyboat]

What do they mean they are killing the 5 but not the 4s

They are no longer selling the 5, only the 5S, 5C and 4S 8GB

 

[n111ck]

EE pls take pre order NOW!!

Oh I see

Because it takes 2 seconds to unlock your phone?

Anyone that upgrades from a 5 is mental. (And this is coming from someone who has had all but the 3G.)

 

[Maxeh]

Hoping to stroll into Vodafone on the 20th and claim my upgrade

iPhone 5S , Touch ID

Following the live apple event. Most of the things look like catch up etc but Touch ID looks good IMO. As long as it works well (purchases etc) I think apple have got something.

Thoughts ?
