Friendly design

Amazing display
Great speed
Fantastic camera
Color variety with its design
Solid build quality for a plastic phone
Snappy performance
The iPhone 5's hardware has aged pretty well
And even without internal changes the 5C is competitive with similarly priced offerings from other companies
The plastic bodies are very sturdy and add character
Camera is still pretty good overall
Though l
Easy to type on
Very portable
Easy to read on
Easy to navigate
Good speaker quality
The iPhone 5C is available for $99 or less on contract
And in five bright colors. Compared with the 2012 iPhone 5
It's got more widely compatible global LTE coverage
An upgraded front-facing camera
And slightly better battery life
Bright and cheerful new colors. Solid value. iPhone 5 internals are still solid. Stronger RF reception than iPhone 5. iOS 7 is a dramatic upgrade.

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.

IOS 7 looks great on the iPhone 5C
Great performance

The editors didn't like
It's (sort of) last year's iPhone
The Swisscheese case is lame
Pricey
Glass back can easily shatter
No 64GB option
Phone's speaker is noticeably muffled-sounding compared to the 5 and 5S
Some will find the plastic body a downgrade from the original iPhone 5's aluminum one
Subpar battery life
Subpar camera quality
Subpar performance — same hardware as the iPhone 5
This phone is 2012 tech dressed up in a brighter package for 2013
The four-inch Retina Display feels small compared with most Android phones
That 4-inch screen is starting to feel small. No significant new hardware features
A 4" display in 2013 seems so old fashioned. Last year's specs won't ignite as much enthusiasm
Nor will it be as future proof as the iPhone 5s
Colored plastic case may not be to everyone's liking
Not a dramatic change from iPhone 5
Storage not expandable
Small screen
That 4inch screen is starting to feel small. No significant new hardware features
Toy-like appearance
Prohibitively expensive
Essentially the iPhone 5
Yearold technology. For 0 more
The iPhone 5s brings the magic. Back of the phone feels a little too slick. Your favorite iPhone 5 case will not fit
Relatively expensive for a midrange smartphone
Similar specifications to the iPhone 5
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 4in screen feels small
Not much improvement in the battery
Plastic shells are a major downgrade from both iPhone 5's metal casing and earlier plastic enclosures developed for the iPhone 3GS
With mostly stale color options
And no trace of metallic sparkle. Realworld battery performance continues to fall below Ap
” section above is a sticking point. During the Apple announcement heralding the new iPhones' arrival
We called the 5c an “iPhone 5 in a new casing
” and besides the minor exceptions noted above
That's proven fairly accurate. The 5c is indeed last night
Not as nice as the iPhone 5
IOS 7 still needs polish
Last year's internals
Camera stumbles in low light
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)
Abstract: one shiny new Apple iPhone,a charger,a set of Apple earpods,a USB-to-Lightning connector,assorted documentation and Apple stickers Nice new plastic case, different form its previous versions. This is the pink color version of 5C Really liked the packaging...
Abstract: Contrary to rumors, the 5C replaces the iPhone 5 version and comes with polycarbonate body. The iPhone 5C runs on iOS 7 platform and comes with lightening connector port. The iPhone 5C comes with colourful and matching cases for additional price of $29. P...
The iPhone 5c starts at Rs 41,900 for the 16GB model, which is good keeping in mind the iPhone 5 launched at a much higher price last year. Since the 5c is nothing more than a plastic iPhone 5 and a slightly bigger battery, it makes for a good deal. We re...
Colorful design, Smooth operating system, Good battery life, Fast processing, Improved Camera U
Still expensive, Looks too similar to iPhone 5, Still small screen, Heavier than iPhone 5, No finger print scanner like iPhone 5S
Yes, Apple iPhone 5C is plastic and it doesn't come with updated specs found in iPhone 5S; and I am sure most of you will hate it. Apple iPhone 5 was a great handset, and even iPhone 5C looks good, but it is costly despite the fact the Apple branding it a...
Colorful options, Smooth OS, Excellent battery life
Expensive, Lack Premium features, Similar to iPhone 5
The all new iPhone 5C is a very solid smartphone if you love iPhone 5. iPhone 5C comes with amazing colorful options that is bright, fresh and is the perfect choice for youths. There is no doubt that we loved in terms of amazing performance, but still th...
Good, Solid in all departments, iOS ecosystem remains unrivaled
Not as future-proof as the 5s, Questionable value for money
While the iPhone 5c is a solid phone in its own right, with Apple choosing to release the 5s at the same time, comparisons between the two are inevitable, and that's where it becomes difficult to recommend the colourful iPhone over the flagship. When you ...
The whole question here is if you want this in polycarbonate. If not you can look for the iPhone 5 which is officially discontinued. Apple iPhone 5C is just as powerful and incredible as the iPhone 5. It is really going to be popular against the teenagers...
Great Build, Nice Camera Quality, Great Form Factor
Slightly Heavy, Overpriced
iPhone 5C is definitely much better than other plastic build quality phone as it has quite premium and very nice and strong feel unlike the clumsy plastic phones. However, it does not comes at an affordable price of Rs. 38500 INR (Starting Price for 16Gb...
Abstract: The Apple parody videos that went viral even as the iPhone 5S and 5C debuted dubbed the new iPhone 5C as ‘Cheap', but with a price tag of Rs 41,500 (16GB) it's anything but cheap. By now the zillion 5C vs. 5S shootouts have all established that the 5S is ...
One cannot call the iPhone 5C a cheap product. It isn't one. Yes, it is inferior to the iPhone 5S in terms of build and pure horsepower, but then Apple charges the relevant extra premium for it.The iPhone 5C is right up there with the likes of the Nokia L...
