Apple iPhone 5c review
There's no doubt about it -- the iPhone 5s is a smashing phone, but it sits in a funny place in Apple's product range. It feels very much like the iPhone 5 has been rebundled here for a specific set of customers.

iPhone 5c review
The iPhone 5c is Apple's mid-range iPhone . It's colourful, slightly cheaper than the iPhone 5s , and 'unashamedly plastic,' according to Apple. But, as the iPhone 5c nears its first birthday, should you buy it? We revisit our iPhone 5c review to determine whether it's worth buying.
Pros:
- This iPhone feels great to hold
- There's great choice of colours to suit any personality
- Cheaper than iPhone 5S
Cons:
- Colours won't be to everyone's taste
- Not as cheap as expected
- No Touch ID fingerprint sensor
- Almost one year old

Apple took the wind out of a lot of sails when it unveiled the iPhone 5c earlier this month. It's not that the device itself was disappointing - quite the contrary, in fact. Apple's new iPhone 5c is exactly what we were expecting it to be after months of rumors and leaked parts.

Solid hardware, but the colourful iPhone 5c is still too expensive to be a low-cost option

The color of magic
The Apple iPhone 5 is gone for good, abandoned and replaced by the fresh iPhone 5c. Initial rumors erroneously suggested that the lowercase letter stands for cheap, but it turned out that the Cupertino-based giant had color on its mind instead.

Review: Apple iPhone 5c
Some people will look at the iPhone 5c and just see an iPhone 5 with a colorful plastic case and a price drop. It's not a device that's going to wow your friends like the iPhone 5s, with its fingerprint scanner and a new camera.
Pros:
- Solid construction
- Plastic will weather most of your "uh oh" moments
- Higher capacity battery
- Better LTE support
- Updated front-facing camera for better duck-face selfies
Cons:
- Year-old technology
- For 0 more, the iPhone 5s brings the magic
- Back of the phone feels a little too slick
- Your favorite iPhone 5 case will not fit

iPhone 5c
The iPhone 5c is that "other" iPhone that launched on September 20, alongside the flagship iPhone 5s . While the higher end 5s might've garnered more attention among the press, the iPhone 5c may end up being the higher volume seller. Why? It's $99 on contract vs. $199 for the 5s in 16 gig capacity.
Pros:
- Attractive
- excellent build quality
- sharp and colorful display and all the comforts of iOS 7
Cons:
- A 4" display in 2013 seems so old fashioned
- Last year's specs won't ignite as much enthusiasm, nor will it be as future proof as the iPhone 5s

Apple iPhone 5C – Review
The Apple iPhone 5C is a great device, with a decent spec, great build quality and a stigma of being the cheaper and inferior product. Which is true but also slightly unjust, the iPhone 5C is a totally different product.
Pros:
- Lightweight and compact
- Nice mature OS with nice optimised apps
- Fast feel throughout the entire OS
- Great camera
- Great sound quality
Cons:
- Battery life
- Casing quite slippy
- iOS 7 still lacks in certain areas

Apple iPhone 5c review
Apple's colourful iPhone 5c represents a new direction in strategy for the company's iPhone line and it's all about marketing. Where the arrival of a new iPhone previously resulted in selling last year's model at a lower price, the iPhone 5c is 2013's iPhone 5 .
Pros:
- Bright new colour variants
- Good build quality
- Upgraded front-facing camera
Cons:
- Glossy finish can be slippery to hold
- No real new or notable features
- Battery life could be better
