I would love Apple if they released phones with better protection, and not some stupid colourful plastic s***.

The only thing they really did was add the fingerprint scanner...

And fingerprit scanner has been around for years (in my old school we paid our lunches with are fingerprints) so just because its on a phine does not mean it is something brand new

Oh and i agree with Rex apple have lost their touch without jobs

Apple
"We made the iPhone 5C not only for its low cost, but also because we offer it in different colors, this iPhone is much more accessible for everyone who has never owned an iPhone before, this is what the iPhone 5C is about"
(sarcasm, they didn't say that)
But forrreal, fkinggggg s**** because everyone has 600€ to throw around.

I'm not a apple hater, but those rumors about the 5C being 300€, that was actually gonna be a revolution, something intelligent they'd have done.
Bang, they crash it all, not only is the iPhone 5C hardware complete bullsht, but it costs f** $$$$$$$$$$.

About the 5S, it should have been 3g,4,5S.
You know, its always Current Gen: iPhone[InsertNumber] NextGen: iPhone[InsertNumber]+[Add "S" to it]+1-2 more pixels or some battery crappp

The 5C is still too expensive. Pointless device.

It was pretty much made for the emerging smartphone markets of India and China. You're not supposed to like it.

Not sure where you're getting your bogus information, but the iPhone C starts at $99 (with contracts).

All they did for the iPhone 4S->5 was add a few megapixels to the camera and made the screen a few mm taller. Oh and changed the charging dock to screw more customers for money.
Apple has lost all creativity and innovation since Jobs died.

What creative and innovative updates did Steve Jobs give to the iPhone? Sure, he created the thing, but this is by far the best update the iOS software has seen yet--and it's been completely conceived after his death.

Better than they did with the iPhone 4S where they just added Siri (which doesn't work).

@Rexx, mind you, this was done during the Jobs era.

Do you realize the average monthly income of a Chinese worker equates to around $200 usd? The iPhone 5C will retail at $733 (usd) in China. Chinese networks dont give big discounts on phones to their customers on contracts like they do here in the U.S.
Samsung, ZTE, and Huawei dominate the Chinese market.
Why do you think Apple's stock dropped 5%? The investors know the 5C is too expensive and won't gain any marketshare in China.

Please research first!

The only people who will want those rainbow flamer colored iPhones are 2-16 year olds who instagram and play angry birds all day.

It's pretty common knowledge at this point what Apple's intentions really were with the iPhone 5C—just google it for info / evidence. I'm not claiming whether or not it will succeed in these counties... I'm just saying that it's not worth throwing a fit over when it's not even intended for our markets. Don't like it, then fine, but you can't pretend that all of Apple's energies have gone into this side project (which is frankly what it really is).

Don't care for any of the "revolutionary" **** Apple churns out year after year, I'll stick with my 4S and 5.1.2 until I can get an HTC One.

Apple never outright said it was intended for emerging markets. That's what every thought the 5C's purpose would be. Obviously their pricing completely goes against the intention that everyone had surmised.

And if you really think iOS 7 is the best thing to happen to iPhone I think you need to try other phones. All they did was copy features from Android and made everything flat like Windows Phone.

There's nothing for them to do anymore before they start copying features from Android, which they have already done in iOS 7.

Uh no? iPhone 4s --> 5 was not only adding a few megapixels to the camera and made screen taller.... It had a more detailed retina display.. Plus the upgrade of the a5 to a6 chip... Plus, faster than the 4s. What the world you talking about?

I'm installing iOS 7 on my dad's iP5 now, even though the 5S looks amazing, we'll stick around until the 6S is out =]
