I still think its a horrible idea and the exact opposite of Apples marketing for the past 10 years :-\

in the US it’s already easy to get a free iphone. just sign a 2 year contract with ATT and you can get an iphone 4
You’re missing the poverty month to month sector
yeah true…and everyone outside the US, which is realistically what the 5C is going to be for.
No surprise that they have a seperate event scheduled in China or something.
Nice free apps!
Keynote, pages, numbers, iphoto, and imovie, are now free
aaaaaand 5c
Same hardware as current 5 in a plastic case $99 on contract 16GB $199 on contract 32GB
64 bit A7 “system-on-a-chip”. I like the sound of that

camera looks great. here we go with the fingerprint scanner
Camera looks great? Digital image stabilization is terrible. And instead of compensating on the sensor side so you wouldn’t need to use a flash, they’ve just gone ahead and made a different flash, lol.
i don’t know much about the mechanics of how cameras work. seems like they upgraded the sensor, though. Aperature can go up to f1/2.2
Sensor is 15% larger. Marginal upgrade.
well, I am once again underwhelmed. However, we saw exactly what we expected to see.
I’ll probably pre-order one. If I hate it, at least I’ll be able to sell it for a mint.
Finger print stuff is interesting, but I feel like they’re just reaching for anything else to distinguish themselves. I’m surprised that they didn’t bill it as another “Apple first” despite phones having these already.
Finger print is interesting, but we’ll see how long it takes to get hacked. I agree, I think they are reaching.
Sadly enough, nothing else out there is really impressing me these days, though.
I wish there was more to the finger print scanner than just unlocking your phone such as requiring your fingerprint to restore your phone if you reported it lost
My old atrix had fingerprint unlock. It got real annoying after a while so I turned it off.
You know whats going to be funny?
When I hand someone a jailbroken 5S and say hey can you snap a pic for me?
WILL THESE APPS BE FREE TO EXISTING USERS?
IT SAYS “NEW DEVICES”
Apple didn’t even upgrade the screen so that you could use it with gloves on. But I guess now that you need a fingerprint to unlock it…
Maybe they’re just trying to keep this industry alive:
Had a pair of these while doing Valet. They worked great.
