ParticipantApple released the iPhone 5C today September 10th with some really good features which include a better A6 Processor, New plastic design and iOS 7. They have scrapped the black colour and added White, Yellow, Green, Maroon and Blue. Nothing else is different for the inside which has an upgraded processor .This iPhone is only $100 cheaper than the 5s and really doesn’t seem to be a budget phone.
With all of these features, would it make you switch from your current phone and Do you think the new Apple iPhone 5C is too expensive?
Please let me know and hope you like the post.

MemberAs long as you have the ios7 software update, to me it doesn’t matter at all what hardware you are putting it on. I still have the Iphone 5, and it works flawlessly. I have more then enough space, and i’ve never gone over my data plan. As long as you have wifi connected i’m never worried about processing time either.

Participantmy opinion is that the iphone 5c does not mean cheap but color.
I honestly think it is quite expensive as all apple products, but it is just my opinion!September 27, 2013 at 3:35 PM #14505flaxtick
ParticipantUnfortunately yes. Compared to the original Iphone 5 I’d actually expected it to be a lot lower priced to make it more affordable to the masses. However Apple has seemed to have taken a rather risky stance by it’s current pricing policy.

MemberYes I think the iPhone 5c is a bit pricy. Although I don’t plan on buying the new 5c anyway. I would much prefer the iPhone 5s over the 5c any day.

ParticipantHeh, the iPhone 5C is too expensive especially for us who have been exposed to nice China Android devices that are very affordable and perform very well for the price. If I want something colourful, I think I’ll be able to get China phone that’s way cheaper than the 5C.

MemberI would say the IPhone 5C it too expensive because it’s supposed to be cheaper than the IPhone 5S. The IPhone 5C is meant for those who can’t afford to buy an expensive IPhone 5S. I personally think the IPhone 5C is still expensive because it’s still new to a lot of people. I have purchased the IPhone 5S, which was $10 cheaper than the IPhone 5C. I wouldn’t want to purchase the IPhone 5C because I feel like it’s a downgrade to IPhone 5.

I honestly think it is quite expensive as all apple products, but it is just my opinion!I agree! I was at the store a few weeks ago. The sale representative told me the IPhone 5S was slight cheaper than the IPhone 5C. At first, I didn’t believe what he said because the IPhone 5C was supposed cheaper than IPhone 5S. However, based on my plan, I got a discount on the IPhone 5S. I still think the IPhone 5C is expensive even it offers for those who can’t afford to buy an IPhone.

MemberDefinitely way too expensive, I genuinely have no clue what on earth they were thinking. A better move would be to have released an “iPhone 5SS” and have the 2x SS stand for SuperSize or something, boost the screen up from the 4″ it is now to a nice 5″ to compete with the high end Androids and everyone that wants a bigger phone.

MemberI agree with you. 5c is a little expensive. Spend some money to buy a 5C, i prefer to buy a 5S with a bit more

Memberyes but its worth it..

unless you want the 5sJanuary 29, 2014 at 10:52 AM #15839yass100
MemberSo apple are charging an extra $280 (€210) to ship to Europe. Apparently No.
You think they are charging more for Germany. Could have been worse like UK.
The 32 GB iPhone 5c will come at £629 (€747) in UK.
Other than America nobody gets cheaper iPhone.February 26, 2014 at 9:26 AM #16008hessa11
ParticipantI think the 5c will sell absolutely loads especially to females and younger people, But i would imagine most other people will skip it and go for the 5s. And then anyone who is a bit Tech savvy will go for the best android phone available at the time.
