IPhone 5C : Review!
ColorFul Apple, and $100 on contract!
By this point a new iPhone is every bit as much a part of fall as football and Thanksgiving food comas. But that pesky "budget iphone" rumor has been kicking around for years with no results so far. So is this year any different? Almost certainly yes.In addition to this rumors, we've got a little more to go on this year. In a report about the (still pretty terrible) conditions at plants in Apple's supply chain, china labor Watch published a worker's diary that made mention of a new, plastic-backed iPhone as an off-handed statement of fact.
What's NEW?
As expected, the iPhone 5c isn't full of new guts, but it's not the 4s either; it's basically the iPhone 5 in plastic. Its brain is the iPhone 5's A6 Processor and it's got an 8MP camera like the 5 as well. Unsurprisingly, it's also got the same 4-inch retina (326 ppi) screen that the iPhone 5 does and a lightning adapter because duh. It's also got more LTE bands than any other smartphone out there, alongside dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, and the normal stuff. Oh and there's a slightly bigger battery! Huzzah! The iPhone 5c's front-facing HD camera is actually an improvement on the iPhone 5's, however. It's designed to function better in low-light conditions. And the iPhone 5C's guts are good enough to handle all the new camera features of iOS 7. Price
The 16GB iPhone 5C will cost $100 with a two year contract, the 32GB model is $200. Off contract prices are way rougher: $550 and $600 respectively. Ouch. you should able to pre-order. This year, instead of just pushing each phone down one notch as in years past, Apple is insteadreplacing the iPhone 5 with the new 5C. This is your new mid-grade option, Folks. The iPhone 4s is getting bumped down to free, like you'd except, keeping smaller screens and 30-pin connectors around one generation more. Just instead of a cheaper iPhone 5, we've got the 5C. Hope you like your colors!
