iPhone 5c Review

The iPhone 5c is not a wholly new product, but a successful reworking of a still-excellent smartphone. Apple will find success with the product by marketing the 5c to colour-conscious youth and those who don't need the top of the line features or specs.
Pros:
  • This is very much an iPhone 5 in a new suit
  • Being available in five colours - white, pink, blue, green and yellow - is the first clue that the iPhone 5c is the new iPod touch
  • That it is "unapologetically plastic" doesn't tell the whole story, though, because like Motorola and Nokia, Apple has...
Cons:
  • Let's talk price for a second
  • The iPhone 5c is not a cheap iPhone, nor is it an inexpensive smartphone in general
  • You're still going to pay over $200 for the 32GB model - in my opinion the only one worth considering - which is currently $30 more than the LG G2, and $100 more than the HTC One.

Apple iPhone 5c review: Plastic body and colour not reasons enough to pick it

After our brief encounter with the iPhone 5c, we have our final verdict on Apple's ‘old wine'. Available in five bright colours of your choosing, the 5c has a very specific demographic in mind unlike its predecessor.

Very very disappointed

I am a hold out from the smart phone market.... I decided to take the plunge and because I have been heavily invested in the Apple Ecosystem for years, I thought I would try an iPhone 5c. Indeed it works.... but that is about all. The camera does not take decent photos...

iPhone 5C review: One year on

The iPhone 5C is a nice smartphone. However, we just can't see the need for it in the first place, unless it was cheaper. It's too expensive for what is effectively an iPhone 5 in a plastic shell with minor changes in hardware. There are better and cheaper Android devices on the market and those wishing to stick with iOS should pay the extra £80 for the iPhone 5S.

It's simple and just works.

Really good phone. I use it for my personal use, to test my games, call, text, browse, email, etc. I'm a hefty user and it handles it all well. Pros: No hiccups in operation. Fast enough. Most durable iPhone I've used. Cons: Expensive Not Nokia level durable. Annoying mid pubescent teen coloring.

On its own merits, the iPhone 5c is a wonderful phone. If you're not fussed about large screens or the awesome tinkering-powers of Android, you'll love its cheery design, seamless software and plastic fantastic build.
Pros:
  • In the trailer above, legendary Apple designer Sir Jonathan Ive sings the praises of the iPhone 5c, calling it "unashamedly plastic"
  • That might sound like a polite way of saying it's cheap, but it's also how he described the original iMac - the desktop PC that made his name and signalled the...
Cons:
  • We have few qualms with the hardware: the iPhone 5c is as delightful to hold as Apple claims
  • After several days using the final software however, we're still not completely taken by iOS 7's new design.

iPhone 5c Review: A Year Later

Unless someone is giving you this phone for free, take a pass. Though it's got decent hardware and a great OS, the one-size-fits-no-one 8GB of storage makes this phone pretty useless.
Pros:
  • It's the cheapest iPhone you can buy with a great OS and sharp screen and decent camera
Cons:
  • The 8GB of storage kills it for this iPhone
  • It's 2015
  • No one can get by with only 8GB of storage
