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 resurgence of Apple in the late 1990s.Like that iconic computer
The 5c is greater than the sum of its pa

As you can see there's a lot of things that make the iPhone 5c still a good phone in 2015. But there are also
Unfortunately
A few major drawbacks this phone has that make it a poor choice for anyone who isn't the most basic-and I mean BASIC-smartphone u
Not cheap enough when compared to the iPhone 5s
Polycarbonate body may scratch easily
The 8GB of storage kills it for this iPhone. It's 2015. No one can get by with only 8GB of storage
Top-end 5S is not much more expensive
Same size and resolution as previous models
Camera struggles in low light
Not exactly budget
No fingerprint scanner
No keyboard upgrade
Expensive
No Touch ID fingerprint scanner
Plastic design
Not Apple's flagship device
Virtually same as iPhone 5
Still as expensive as iPhone 5 was
Cases don't look considered
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. Whether you like the new neon icons or not is a matter of personal taste
But there’s no denying there are some quirks in the update.Let’s take the Command Centre. Yes
It’s a blessing to be able
Very high SAR level
No way of expanding the memory
The iOS 7 interface isn't as practical for partially sighted users
Plastic build
Overpriced.
Colour theming will alienate diehards
Legibility issues with some fonts and icons
Still too darn expensive
Price tag compared to other midrange devices
Smaller screen than rivals
Limited storage
Below average media battery life
Still quite expensive
It's cheaper
But still not a budget iPhone
Colours won't be to everyone's taste
Not as cheap as expected
No Touch ID fingerprint sensor
Almost one year old
IOS 7 still has a few nagging issues
Poor Google services integration
Not a big advance on the iPhone 5
Battery life could be better
Relatively expensive
Offers little improvement on the iPhone 5's performance
It's the cheapest iPhone you can buy with a great OS and sharp screen and decent camera
The 8GB of storage kills it for this iPhone. It's 2015. No one can get by with only 8GB of storage
Look, even with its lack of more advanced features (to be fair, most of which were introduced after the 5c was first unveiled), the iPhone 5c could still be a decent phone in 2015. COULD be. But Apple put the final nail in its coffin when it decided to ...
Abstract: This year, the big difference is what Apple has decided to do with its previous line up. Typically, when a new iPhone is launched, the old model sees a price cut to make way for the new model. Given that Apple uses the same case for two generations, it ha...
A quality experience that's expertly tailored for normal people Let's face it—nobody but early adopters really needs the latest-and-greatest these days. One of our favorite phones of late, Motorola's Moto G , won't win any competitions based on its sp...
This iPhone feels great to hold, There's great choice of colours to suit any personality, Cheaper than iPhone 5S
Colours won't be to everyone's taste, Not as cheap as expected, No Touch ID fingerprint sensor, Almost one year old
If you are trying to decide between the iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c it is a question of whether you need all the extras offered by the iPhone 5s. Perhaps you are enticed by the new camera in the 5s, for example. If you need the latest technology it is only £8...

Very big and unweildy to use in one hand, iOS is a more secure and closed platform, Can you get an invite to buy?
The OnePlus One is an outstanding entry to the smartphone market. If you want a large screen phone, and you can live with Android's data-harvesting ways, it is a brilliant alternative to the iPhone 5c. You just have to be able to get one. But don't expect...

Abstract: The most natable thing about the iPhone 5c is its bright and colourful design, which instantly makes it stand apart from any other iPhone. The model is available in 5 pastel shades: blue, green, yellow, white and pink, and the handset is made of plastic r...
Abstract: We've spent lots of time with the iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C, both of which are excellent smartphones but with some significant differences. The iPhone 5S is Apple's flagship model, so it's got better specs and features than the iPhone 5C, but the iPhone 5C ...
Abstract: HTC One vs iPhone 5c: UK price The iPhone 5C is the cheaper of Apple's current smartphones , but it's not cheap. A 16GB model will set you back £469 inc VAT, and you have to shell out a further £100 for the 32GB model. So you'd have to be convinced that ...

These two handsets are both great, evenly matched for storage and performance. We expect that no-one would be disappointed with the purchase of either. The Moto G is bigger and bulkier but has a bigger screen. You will, however, notice the extra money you...
