The iPhone 5s signified the peak of a particular iPhone design for Apple before it was designed to be much thinner and more rounded with the iPhone 6 and it became difficult to identify the 5s from its forerunners, the iPhone 5.

Apple reacted by stating that a cheaper iPhone would not be the future of its products. However, the idea that Apple would be launching an inexpensive iPhone took shape and when Apple unveiled the iPhone 5c together with the iPhone 5c; the expected displeasure when it eventually emerged was just £80 less than the equivalent iPhone 5s.

On September 10, 2013, Apple had unveiled the iPhone 5c, together with the iPhone 5S at the time of a media event at Cupertino headquarters.  So the iPhone 5S had become the new flagship of the iPhone range whereas the iPhone 5C was created as a mid-range model and the iPhone 4S continued production had become the entry level model of the series.  The gadget iphone 5c, marketed with a stylized lowercase `c’ as iPhone 5c is said to be a smartphone which had been designed as well as marketed by Apple Inc.

In comparison to the 5S, the iPhone 5c was marketed at a discounted price point unlike the earlier practice of lowering the price of the previous model on release of a fresh version and the iPhone 5 had been discontinued and replaced by the 5c.

The 16 and 32 GB gadget iphone 5c models were replaced by the 8 GB on September 9, 2014 with the announcement of the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. The 8 GB variety was then discontinued on September 9, 2015 on the announcement of the iPhone 6S.  The iPhone 5c was said to be the long-anticipated inexpensive iPhone or cheap iPhone.

But it rivalled with the other mid-range devices that had been positioned below the flagship phone such as the HTC One Mini and Moto X.  Taking into consideration the premium pricing tendencies of Apple, initially the iPhone 5c had been sold at prices like the other high-end flagship devices that had been released in early 2013.

Internal Storage of 16 GB/ No Expansion

Like the Samsung galaxy S4 and HTC One and as its earlier iPhones, it had not competed in the feature phone fragment or the unsubsidized/prepaid classification.  It had received discounts for being on the market for six months.

The iPhone 5c smartphone features a 4.00 inch-touch screen display having a resolution of 640 pixels by 1136 pixels an inch.  It is powered by 1.3GHz dual-core Apple A6 processor and has a 1GB of RAM.

But now with the discontinuation of the iPhone 5c, the prices tend to reflect a seller renewed price that is not the same as a brand new phone.

Crafted from Single Plastic

The plastic back of the iPhone 5c is said to be a big disappearance from the steel, aluminium and glass substance which Apple had utilised since the iPhone 4.

The 3GS of the phone had a plastic back and it was like going back.The iPhone has all the trademarks of the thorough consideration to details.  It has been crafted from a single piece of plastic and one will not find a single seam or join in the unibody- type design.

An advantage of the plastic construction is that the edges tend to be smooth and curved unlike the iPhone 5s and 4s which by contrast  seems a less comfortable in the hand. The Apple iPhone 5c is said to be a sole SIM (GSM)which tends to receive a Nano-SIM with connectivity choices comprising of Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, 3G and 4G with the assistance for Band 50 utilised by some of the Indian LTE network while the sensors on the phone features Compass Magnetometer, Proximity sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and ambient light sensor.

Sony Xperia L is said to be a stylish mid-range device which tends to stand out mostly with photographic abilities.In a world which is full of affordable Android devices, design is considered to be of vital importance.

The Sony Xperia L is considered to be an well-designed phone with evident inward curve together with amazing diffused LED light strip towards the bottom that tends to light up when the user has pending notifications.

Consumers have been looking forward to the iPhone 5, since 2010 with overdue upgrades such as a bigger screen together with a faster 4G LTE.  The new design is good to look as well as to hold and is totally rebuilt and familiar. It tends to measure 123.8, high, 58.6 mm wide and 7.6 mm deep and rises higher than the iPhone 4S though not wider.

Moreover it is also 18% thinner and lighter by 20%.  Apple has claimed that it is both bigger and smaller.  The gadget iphone having a chassis carved from anodized 6000 series aluminium hardened Gorilla Glass towards the front together with insets of ceramic or pigmented glass towards the back area has been compared to be complimentary as well as absurd to accuracy extravagance time pieces.  The hardware buttons on the iPhone 5 are said to be placed out in a similar way as on the iPhone 4S and iPhone 4.

The On/Off (Sleep/Wake) button is towards the top area, the ring/silent button is placed to the left while the volume up(camera shutter) together with the volume down buttons are located below it.  Though the iPhone 4 Home button was not nearly tough to withstand long term usage, the iPhone 4S handled this issue with an improved support system.

Home Button – Clickier

The Home button seems to be `clickier’ though more solid than before and the iPhone 5 tends to feel much better than the iPhone 4S. The gadget iphone 5 comes in two colours and this year these two colours have been two-toned.  There is black and slate and white and silver where the black is Darth Vader black and seems to disappear on a dark surface in low light.

The white on the other hand is Storm Trooper white with its crystalline diamond-cut chamfers brighter and shinier.  Though the blackout look of the anodized aluminium on the black and slate iPhone 5 is more outstanding, more colossal it tends to display marks, abrasions and scratches more readily than the bare aluminium of the white and silver model and none are resistant to those specific occurrences.

The iPhone 5 is like the flat rounded rectangle of what the iPhone 4S and iPhone 5 had been earlier.With the entry of the iPhone 5, Apple has for the first time changed the screen size as well as the characteristic ratio, making it taller and wider, bigger though not less thick.

Elongated Screen – Accommodate Five Rows of Four Apps

According to Apple the iPhone 5 is said to be double fast as the iPhone 4S and considering iOS devices, Apple does not mention in GHz or RAM and prefers bringing in experience to a spec fight though spec tends to drive the experience.

With regards to storage, it is not bigger or faster and tends to have the same 16GB 32GB and 65GB choices like earlier.  However everything else regarding the iPhone 5 seems faster which is due to the custom Apple A6.

The interface of the gadget iphone is the same with the app icons greeting in a grid having a dock or around four apps towards the bottom. Rather than a grid of four rows of four apps, the elongated screen tends to accommodate five rows of four apps. Additional apps could also be accommodated on the home screen though this is all as far as user interface innovation lies.  Added screen height would mean pop-up notification banners would be less intrusive at the top or beneath
