Today the new Apple iPhones have been put on sale in Spain, and we have seen how for the first time the Cupertino company released more than one model of these smartphones at the same time. The departure of the iPhones 5c and 5s has caused, as always, a great stir among the followers of the apple company, many of whom have spent a good part of the night camped in front of the doors of their nearest Apple Store.
Of the two devices put on sale today, the most criticized has been the iPhone 5c, since it was said that it was not an Apple product, that exclusivity and elegance had been lost with it. Many others pointed out that they did not like to see a product of plastic among these new iPhones, since it was not something characteristic of the company. However, today we were able to have the iPhone 5c in our hands and see some photos with detail of its interior.
Despite my initial skepticism, the first thing I noticed when taking the 5c was that it really is not like taking any other plastic smartphone, it shows that it is different and much more resistant. At first glance it may seem that it has nothing that other phones made of the same material do not have, but when you really notice the quality is when you pick it up.
Another thing that we notice when picking it up is the weight, which really makes a big difference compared to the iPhone 5-5s, since its increase is clearly noticeable. For the rest, we find a very fluid and pleasant to the touch phone with characteristics practically identical to those of the iPhone 5, making it a great smartphone for those who are not so demanding as to acquire the 5s. As I say, to appreciate the greatness of this iPhone, you have to take it and feel it directly.
We have also been able to take a closer look at how this new device on its interior, which does not vary substantially compared to its predecessor, the iPhone 5, although it does include some features of the 5s.

I have an iPhone 5, and the 5c even seems to me "cool" ... as long as I don't have those back protectors in the style of "crocs" ....
The iPhone 5c is a total scam, a hoax by Apple towards the Apple customer and there is no more. It would be good if the quality of the plastic was bad Luis, it would already be scary.
I am totally sure that the iPhone 5c was originally conceived as a low cost iPhone, but in those Apple meetings some manager came up with the happy idea of… «because we are going to earn less if this bunch of ignorant people bought everything What do we get? ». Cook listened to him and that's it. Fortunately few have bitten and most have seen the deception.
Why do I say this is a hoax and a scam? Very easy. Until now the new iPhone, the previous one and the one before the latter coexisted. Curiously, that the previous iPhone was NEVER sold, I repeat NEVER has subtracted sales from the new one, I say this because of those who use the argument that the previous one (in this case it would be the iPhone 5), could steal sales from the new one (which in this case it would be the iPhone 5s).
They have eliminated the iPhone 5, to replace it with exactly the same terminal (except for a tad more battery), but made of plastic. Of course, putting the price that the iPhone 5 should have had but trying to deceive the customer into believing that it is a new device, and again nothing at all.
That is why I am very sure that in principle Apple had planned to eliminate the already old 4S from the catalog (old even in the connector and remember that the iPad 3 was eliminated prematurely supposedly only for that, for the 30-pin connector), leaving the 5c as the entry or low cost iPhone, the cheapest iPhone 5 as they have ALWAYS done, and the 5s as a new and star terminal.
The play has not gone well because the deception is so obvious, so obvious that you have to have very few lights to not see it.
For you and everyone who criticizes the iPhone 5c:
What happens that no one remembers that the iPhone 3G and 3GS was made?
Come on ... talk for the sake of talking.
Look at one that has stung! If Apple is the ostia, of course.
But don't you see it? Can't you see it's a scam? That they are cheating on you !!!
You are free to buy it. Here there is no deception because the characteristics and materials have been described to everyone.
Okay. So it seems wonderful to you that they eliminate the iPhone 5 and replace it with the same phone but with a plastic casing and at the same price that the original iPhone 5 should have now?
It's a full-blown scam mate because Apple wanted to take advantage of the impulsiveness that undeniably exists among its customers. However, and thank God, this impulsiveness this time has not been expected (far from it), and the vast majority have seen the deception they wanted to subject them to.
If you see the beautiful video there is about the iPhone 5c on the Apple website, after a few seconds Ive said that it is a new product and IT IS NOT, the iPhone 5c is an iPhone 5 with a plastic case, nothing more.
I repeat that I am very sure that initially Apple devised this iPhone to do it from the outset, that is, the low cost that EVERYONE TALKED about, EVERYONE. However, someone thought that the best thing was to continue making money for that impulsiveness that Apple customers have.
But don't you realize that they want to sell you a plastic terminal at the price of a glass and aluminum terminal (the iPhone 5)? But don't you see it? Can't you see it's the same phone ???
I fully agree with aarancon, I think that is exactly what many Apple fans think.
Totally agree. But I will add that the scam is twofold since with the launch of the iPhone 5C, and the withdrawal of the iPhone 5. It is not possible to decide, freely, with which of the two teams to keep. Touch the iPhone 5C, Yes or Yes. Fat Thriller for Apple
Man is that the play and the deception is precisely there. If they had left the iPhone 5 (as they have always done), the 5c should have been priced at low cost, which is precisely what they did not want. That is, win everything possible.
of course it made no sense to leave the aluminum iphone 5 at the same price of the 5c, it would not be a good robbery haha
After a while they sell it made of cardboard, they say it is new and people will buy it
The plastic friend is not criticized, it is criticized that they sell last year's hardware at a current hardware price, its price is inflated, it should be worth about 100 euros less, because their hardware is old already
ma you should be very gross, think things as you say, talk for the sake of talking
Completely agree with you. I am a number 1 fan of Apple and I have almost everything. But this is a joke. They would have swept if this terminal put it at 399 euros or even at 450. But only 100 euros of difference with the 5s? above they remove the 5!
The results were seen yesterday, in the Apple Store everyone was going for the 5s and nobody bought the 5c, but they didn't even look at it.
And if I consider it a hoax, because it is a 5 with less quality, because it says that it is made of plastic to get those colors and on the Ipod they have beautiful colors and with different material quality.
Great post yours. I'm the first one who wants Apple to bring out great products, because I love it. But we will achieve that by being rational buyers (I am often not) and demanding excellence from a brand that knows how to achieve it, but that takes things out with a dropper.
It is that if they do not withdraw the iPhone 5 and take out, for a similar price, the iPhone 5C.
So if they don't sell a single one.
Of course, if they leave the iPhone 5 to 5c they should have put a low cost price and that is what they did not want. What to do then? They eliminate the 5 and replace it with the same phone, changing the glass and aluminum housing for a plastic one, which is the 5c. That if, and although of course the manufacturing cost is much lower, they put the same price that would have had now the 5. Come on, if they had gone well the play is masterful. Fortunately, it seems that it has been the opposite and I am delighted.
Wey, but if you want the best and the best technology, why don't you buy a 5s? And do you stop crying? If people want a 5c, it is their fart, I have not cheated you, yes? Are you going to save the world with your comments?
5c whatever you say gives battle to the s4 without problems they are of the same material but the 5c is polycarbonate, which according to me is more resistant.
Mother of God!!!
Look at "Wey" before you even think about debating with me, learn to write.
And what does it say, now that the ipad 3 and ipad 4 no longer exist and now there ipad 2 and ipad air? apple is playing everything as it wants, without logic, more than to do business
Totally agree! I'm tired of reading that if the plastic is of better quality than the rest of the terminals, nonsense! I'm more tired of reading that the price is adjusted and that it makes a lot of sense for apple this phone! It has the same hardware as the discontinued iPhone 5 from a year ago! So for me and for many, that phone at that price is a scam. no matter how much these editors try to convince us to buy it ... it's good to always hear the same thing, say things as they are!
when I tried the iphone 5c it seemed more less good, since it felt like an updated 3g / s 🙂
However, if the price were 300-400 dollars / euros free, it would be just what one is paying for.
I am a fan and user of Apple, since the fall of 2007. Compare the iPhone 5C with the iPhone 5 that has been recalled, inexplicably less than a year old. You will realize, immediately, with the two computers in hand and their prices, the gaffe with its arrogant decision that Apple has made. I do not call it TIMO because no one, knowledgeable about the characteristics of both teams, thinks of buying it. I suspend for Apple that will bring negative consequences in the short term. A real shame.
Well, I do call it a scam, and I call it because you also know as I do that among Apple's clientele there is an undeniable phenomenon of impulsiveness when buying their products and that is what Apple trusted. That is, they were not going to stop to look at what it has inside, but that it is a new iPhone (which it really is not), and you have to buy it.
And suddenly they all became "guru's" technology and marketing specialists, I don't think Apple will put a gun on them to create their "FARC", jojojo
Indeed, Lucas. And precisely because of that ability to decide.
to the iPhone 5C, it is being fulfilled. The option to buy it is very disproportionate to the iPhone 5S. Come on, they don't even look at you as a team to buy.
Let's see if they take out shells like the "C" ones, we put them at 5 and we already have a 5c. Fixed and end of issue XD.
+1 hahaha.
What kind of joke is this? A plastic iphone5 and at the same price as the iphone. 5 with aluminum casing with sapphire and also beautiful of the same material and design as an ipad mini. A shame but hopefully everyone buys the iphone 5s and the 5c have to reduce their price because of scammers.
It may be that apple wants to only color the iphone like the moto xy competition because it cannot do it with aluminum because it results in a good quality finish at the beginning but fragile over time in terms of durability of the color if it gets scratched As it happens in the black iphone 5, I really believe that the iphone 5c because of the range of colors is aimed at an audience more than all female or certain guys who like bright colors a lot and do not give much importance to the specifications of qlto level to which Apple has us accustomed with its products, the real users of the mark without exception those who have an iPhone 5 or earlier that are going to update they will do so for the 5s, the 5c is for a market that has never bought the iPhone and it is not so demanding that is true
Operators are getting rid of the iPhone 5 at forced marches and for that reason they are selling it permanently at € 20 per month. It is a good time to buy it. I'm going to take advantage of it. When the two years are up, we will be ready to buy the 6, since the 6S will be on the market by then. It is that the 5S and the 5C are exactly the same lphone 5. The only thing that changes is the flash and the touch iD. But otherwise ... It's exactly the same.
Luis del barco, let's see if you find out that to buy that 5c I buy the 5s for € 100 more? What a shame to read "it shows that it is different and much more resistant than the rest of smartphones" (plastic is concerned) are you really trying to convince me to buy it at that price? This phone is not Apple, and if you defended the brand a little more we would not have to read these ridiculous posts
