Apple iPhone 5C Review
The iPhone 5C is the iPhone 5 in plastic for $100 less, and that's not a bad thing. The polycarbonate colored cases look and feel a lot better than you'd guess.
Pros:
- More comfortable to hold than iPhone 5S/5
- Bigger battery
- Colors look great and plastic doesn't feel cheap
- iOS 7 looks fantastic
Cons:
- iOS 7 still has a few nagging issues
- Poor Google services integration

Apple iPhone 5C review
For over a decade, the most persistent criticism of Apple has been that the company's power comes not from invention, but from marketing - that millions of customers are buying into a logo and a lifestyle more than radically new products.
Pros:
- Look at all the colors
- iPhone 5 internals still solid
- Great camera
Cons:
- Not as nice as the iPhone 5
- iOS 7 still needs polish

Apple iPhone 5C (Verizon Wireless)
The colorful, plastic iPhone 5c is a welcome upgrade for existing iPhone 4 and 4S owners, and a great introduction to Apple's awesome app platform at a nice price. It's the best $99 phone you'll find on Verizon Wireless, but otherwise, there's not much new to see here.

iPhone 5c (Verizon) Review
Apple's iPhone just got a splash of color. While it has the same internal components as last year's iPhone 5, the new iPhone 5c comes wrapped in a brightly colored plastic shell. Available for $99 in one of five bold hues, the 5c also runs iOS 7, Apple's equally colorful operating system, which is...

- plastic design
- not Apple's flagship device

Apple iPhone 5c (16GB/32GB)
In an alternate reality, the iPhone 5 would have followed past Apple precedent, dropping in price to $99 while a markedly more powerful iPhone 5S debuted at $199, $299, and $399 price points.
Pros:
- A more affordable version of 2012's iPhone 5
- still packing a 4" screen
- LTE cellular support
- and two very good cameras
- with modestly improved low-light performance on the front camera.
Cons:
- Plastic shells are a major downgrade from both iPhone 5's metal casing and earlier plastic enclosures developed for the iPhone 3GS
- with mostly stale color options
- and no trace of metallic sparkle.

Apple iPhone 5c review: A colourful iPhone 5 with better battery life
iPhones have always been aspirational, high-end products, for which people have been prepared to pay a hefty price in order to join the (not particularly exclusive) club. With Apple's 2013 handset launches that approach has changed slightly: the flagship iPhone 5s occupies the traditional...

- Excellent 4-inch Retina display
- Solid build quality
