It is super fast with great specs
The price is unbelievable
Look
The iPhone 5c isn't a bad phone. I actually think there's something charming about its coloured plastic design. It comes in green

But it still is a Retina display

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
Gorgeous design, Beautiful colors and craftsmanship, Global LTE support, Most affordable new iPhone yet
Last year's internals, Camera stumbles in low light
The iPhone 5c might not be cheap, but it's a gorgeous handset that brings a breath of fresh air to the iPhone lineup. For many people, it might even be a better choice than the iPhone 5s....
Abstract: Three months ago Apple, for the first time ever, released not one but two new iPhones in the same year - the forward thinking iPhone 5s and the fun and friendly iPhone 5c . Both were variants on last year's iPhone 5 . The 5s kept the same design but added...

Abstract: Every year since 2007, Apple has released one new iPhone at a time. But this year marked the company's first foray into multiples, with the colorful iPhone 5c joining Apple's lineup as the flagship iPhone 5s' sidekick. Is a new look reason enough to buy o...
Vivid colors finally inject some variety into the iPhone line. All of the great features from the iPhone 5 return with a couple of small enhancements. Offers a less-expensive new Apple handset option.
Price difference isn’t so significant to set it apart from the much-enhanced iPhone 5s. Slippery backing makes a case feel essential. Loses some of the premium allure of an iPhone.
The iPhone 5c puts a colorful twist on the excellent phone we know and love, but the price point isn’t appealing enough to shrug off the powerful iPhone 5s. Product iPhone 5c Company Apple Contact www.apple.com Price $99 (16GB) or $199 (32GB) wit...
Abstract: The iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c launched a month ago today, and that means we've had just over 4 weeks to put them through their paces and evolve our first impressions. So, was the iPhone 5s a forward looking upgrade, is the iPhone 5c a popular alternative? O...
Abstract: Well this should be a familiar comparison! On one side of the ring, we have the almighty Samsung Galaxy S4, the Android smartphone that’s arguably the best that the platform has to offer. And on the other side, we have the refreshed version of the iPho...

Abstract: Many will no doubt be tempted by one of the new devices but with iPhone 5S stocks low and prices high, the iPhone 5C could prove enticing. Furthermore, coupled with its lower price is the fact the device comes in a raft of bold, brash colours, which could...
Great build quality, Wide selection of well attuned accessories, Intuitive, beautiful operating system, Decent camera, Impressively precise GPS module, Low emissions and low power consumption, Still fast enough for all current apps, Great Retina display
but with a low non-HD resolution, Barely any cheaper than the iPhone 5s, Small phone with a tiny screen size (compared to the competitors), No 64-bit support, Performance levels not quite high-end
Those who have backed away from one of the current iPhones due to their premium price points of 699 to 899 Euros (~$948 to ~$1220) may be glad to hear that the iPhone 5c is at least somewhat more affordable. This may not be enough to gain a strong followi...
Abstract: With Apple discontinuing the iPhone 5 following the launch of the iPhone 5C, we envision a sea of confused owners of Apple's last generation iPhone wondering whether it's worth upgrading to the repackaged iPhone 5C, which swaps out the high-end metal casi...
Many people are hung up on the 5c being an iPhone 5 “with a case” like it's a bad thing. Maybe if you want the latest specs in a huge device, it is. Maybe. There's no denying the 5c is behind many top Android devices, but looking at it so narrowly complet...
