Yesterday evening marked a break from tradition for Apple - it revealed not just one, but two brand-new iPhones, as well as the vibrantly colorful iPhone 5C. How does the iPhone 5C build up to the competition and the iPhone 5S? Selling price The iPhone 5C was rumoured to be a " low-priced " iPhone, and though it is a little bit cheaper than the iPhone 5S, starting at £469 ($549) for the iPhone 5C off-contract with 16GB of storage and topping £549 ($649) for 32GB of space, it still commands a premium price. The iPhone 5C will most likely cost substantially less when ordered directly through mobile phone operators on a long contract, but compared with its rivals, Apple's most colourful iPhone is continue to a expensive offering. Digital camera Apple has included the 8-megapixel camera from the prior generation iPhone 5, which although it is significantly down on the numbers in comparison with its Android rivals, produces solid, if unspectacular images. The video-chat camera on the front of the iPhone 5C has been given a boost, with a 1 . 2-megapixel front-facing FaceTime HD camera featuring enhanced light sensitivity, which should make video calls much clearer and sharper. Features Apple's main feature for the iPhone 5C is colour. For the first time since the iPhone 4, Apple has produced a phone with a seamless, smooth plastic back. The rear shell is available in five colours: green, yellow, blue, white and pink. The iPhone 5C also comes with unique wallpapers that suits the chosen color on the back of the device, and combines with a very colourful, brand new redesigned iOS 7 - Apple's newest mobile operating system. Display screen - sensible, the iPhone 5C features Apple's high resolution, pin-sharp 4-inch retina display screen, which is starting up to appear a little on the small side compared with most of current day's 5-inch-plus Android and Windows Mobile phones. But with regards to quality it really should be as top-notch as ever, making photos look good and on-screen text very clear and easy to read. Apple has also given the iPhone 5C easy access to its digital voice-activated personalized assistant, Siri, which has been available on flagship iPhones since the iPhone 4S. While not usually terribly useful for everyday tasks, the novelty of asking your phone questions while being able to set reminders and send text messages via voice, could come in very useful. Speed For the iPhone 5C, Apple has primarily recycled parts from the iPhone 5 and put them in a attractive new frame. The final result is that Apple's brand-new phone is simply just as fast as the iPhone 5 before it, equipped with the exact same A6 processor. That will make it considerably slower than Apple's new flagship, the iPhone 5S, which sports a brand new processor in the form of the Apple A7. Overall, the iPhone 5C really should be more than fast and slick enough for most users, and will maintain that speed for at least one more year. Compared with the competition, however , it is slow thanks to its previous-generation specifications. Battery life The recycled parts coming from the iPhone 5 have been modified by Apple to squeeze out slightly more battery life for the iPhone 5C than the prior generation flagship. Apple rates its colorful iPhone has having 10 hours of talk time, and 10 hours of browsing time on Wi-Fi or LTE, with 250 hours of standby time. Real-world usage will, needless to say, vary. A conclusion The iPhone 5C surely is colorful and forms a new approach for Apple, although when it comes down to it, it is simply just a recycled iPhone 5 in a plastic case. No matter if that is always a bad thing, is debateable. The iPhone 5 was a excellent smartphone last year, and is continue to one of the best around, but people shopping for the iPhone 5C expecting to get a brand new, next-generation smartphone will be frustrated. Smartphones aren't all about numbers and specifications, on the other hand, as the experience of the mobile phone is what matters the most and the iPhone 5C is certainly going to be a slick experience. The simple truth is, how the iPhone 5C comes across will be down to how much it costs. With a starting price of £469 ($549) contract-free, the iPhone 5C is surely not low-priced, even though bought with a mobile phone contract the price tag should be significantly lower. The iPhone 5S offers a lot more regarding specifications and functionality, and being only £80 more, would be a better buy. TianS manages Customer Service for SaleWill.
