*** iPhone 5S/5C - September 10th ***

EVH said:
Part of me thinks the whole "C" range was created because people whined too much about a lack of affordability.

When it's time for the iPhone 6, they're going to have to put the guts of the 5S in to the 6C and market the 6 as new and improved, all singing and dancing model with a new design.

I'm not saying it's going to be hard, but it's not exactly elegant. Something they fell foul of in the nineties when they had 1214142 product ranges.

They could just as easily have put the new 5S internals in to the coloured casings with the fingerprint sensor, and dropped the price on the 5. Considering the price of the 5C, they can't exactly market it as an affordable option.

I was considering getting a 5C for the wife.. Forget that!

See that what i'm talking about, the phone market in developed countrys is about saturated with iPhones if they had priced the 5C cheaper people who can't afford or on the fence about iOS/iPhone might of been tempted.
 
did people honestly think that the iphone was a £300 phone in a £200 metal case? It seems so.
 
Lol xperia tipo.. I have a nexus 4.

IPhone still has a pathetic resolution of 1136x640.. My nexus 4 has 1280x720 since its launch LAST YEAR, and its still a better phone..

Roll on nexus 5 it will crap over most phones out there.

That's OK though all you sheep will flock to apple and give them your cash for old hardware/tech/design ;)

What are you doing in an apple forum?

exactly! There are loads of people with £200 ipods. A £300 iphone 5C would be the ultimate device. I'd buy one tomorrow just for the hell of it. Unless some fundamental tech comes along, I can't see how the 5C wouldn't be more than enough for a good few years, especially as it has 4G just on the start of that happening (still no 4G here).

I was expecting it to cost £400 at the most, Its a lot cheaper to build in terms of construction, there is no new parts apart from a few extra LTE bands. It is clear that the only reason Apple produced the 5C is to make sure most people get the 5s and those who don't still give them a much higher margin as compared to selling the iPhone 5 at the same price.

It is also the $99 contract phone for the US so its exactly the same price the 5 would have been there.

Because resolution is the be-all end-all of everything, right.

Don't embarrass yourself any further, if you like Android phones, don't post garbage in the Apple forum. It's easy really.

And yet you care so little about the iphone that you came in here specially to post. Bless
 
Ridiculous price as well what a waste of money! For the same crap over and over and over!

When will you apple suckers learn they don't care about you! They just want your money!
 
If I'm honest I'm past caring too much about the hardware these days, all I'd really mind would be something that is a bit nippier than my 4S. The integration between all my devices is the major selling point for me, it still is rather. Safari, iCloud and iMessage just takes all the effort of making sure everything is in synchronisation. The new iCloud Keychain further adds to that experience. OS X is so much nicer to use than any other desktop OS too both from a casual and a developer's viewpoint.

You are clearly very badly informed, change the record. :o

People like you come across as though you couldn't afford one so have to slate it to make yourself feel better. This doesn't just apply to phones, either.

Keep digging your hole.

Really? This wasn't obvious at all. :p
 
I'm not too fussed on prices

my Iphone 4 wasn't exactly cheap

yet I use it every day, have had over 3 years of use of it so far, and I still get a days charge out of it (pretty heavy usage too)

can't complain
