The editors didn't like
Coloured plastic case may not be to everyone's liking
Ships with iOS 7, available in a range of colours, provides a cheaper alternative to the 5S, bright screen, great camera
Offers little improvement on the iPhone 5's performance, made from plastic, still expensive
There's no doubt about it -- the iPhone 5s is a smashing phone, but it sits in a funny place in Apple's product range. It feels very much like the iPhone 5 has been rebundled here for a specific set of customers. There's obviously little point in upgradi...

Fast, light, comfortable to hold, good camera
Expensive, no Touch ID fingerprint scanner, plastic design, not Apple's flagship device
Apple's iPhone 5C is a quality device that is as easy to use as its predecessors. However, its price and position in the market mean it doesn't seem to serve any particular demands....
Abstract: The new iPhone is like a bus… we wait a year for one and two come along together! This year saw the iPhone 5S AND the new iPhone 5C released – we've already unboxed the new iPhone 5S and now it's time to turn our attentions to the colourful and slightly c...
As is often the way when you unbox a premium device you're amazed by the quality of it or the way it looks. With the iPhone 5C I really was impressed opening it up. Apple have used a really really good quality polycarbonate, it feels as good as the Lumia...
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
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
On its own merits, the iPhone 5c is a wonderful phone. If you’re not fussed about large screens or the awesome tinkering-powers of Android, you’ll love its cheery design, seamless software and plastic fantastic build. You’d really have to love its past...
More comfortable to hold than iPhone 5S/5, Bigger battery, Colors look great and plastic doesn't feel cheap, iOS 7 looks fantastic
iOS 7 still has a few nagging issues, Poor Google services integration
The iPhone 5C is a good phone, just like the iPhone 5 was a good phone. It's nothing revolutionary, but is solid, speedy, and now brightly colored. If you're the type to wait for last year's phone to drop in price before snagging it, this is the iPhone ...

Colourful, solid, iOS 7 on board, good camera
Virtually same as iPhone 5, still as expensive as iPhone 5 was, cases don't look considered
The iPhone 5C is a lovely phone that is solid in its performance and playful it its approach. The combination of the colourful exterior sits beautifully against the latest iOS 7 operating system and it's good to see Apple ditching the ode to faux le...
Stunning design, great feel, bigger battery than the iPhone 5.
It's cheaper, but still not a budget iPhone
The iPhone 5C is a startlingly different phone with a look which will appeal to a whole new audience – it looks and feels great, though it's still not cheap....
Abstract: Apple has now launched a 'budget' smartphone that is bright and colourful and offers some, but not all of the functionality of its flagship phone. Nokia also has a smartphone that does the same thing, this is the Lumia 520, here is where we put the two sm...

Abstract: Apple does a few things amazingly well: marketing, for instance. And shamelessly combining the ideas of others into new products that work better than any of their predecessors (witness the iPhone and the iPad). With the iPhone 5c, we can add another ...
