You could spend $200 to pick up that powerhouse in the Apple iPhone 5s (on contract), but if you’re content about using a GOOD performing smartphone that rivals some of the other flagship devices out there, while paying half as much out of your pocket,...
Abstract: Let's talk about what's different: the polycarbonate casing. I personally think it looks and feels really cool, and it's refreshing to see a new design after 4 iterations of what's basically the same (albeit lovely) Leica inspired iPhone 4/4s/5/5s metal c...
Abstract: Apple took the wind out of a lot of sails when it unveiled the iPhone 5c earlier this month. It's not that the device itself was disappointing — quite the contrary, in fact. Apple's new iPhone 5c is exactly what we were expecting it to be after months of ...

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
In an alternate reality, the iPhone 5 would have followed past Apple precedent, dropping in price to $99 while a markedly more powerful iPhone 5S debuted at $199, $299, and $399 price points. Under that scenario, the iPhone 5c either wouldn’t have existed...
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.
That 4inch screen is starting to feel small. No significant new hardware features
The colorful, plastic iPhone 5c is a welcome upgrade for existing iPhone 4 and 4S owners, and a great introduction to Apple's awesome app platform at a nice price. It's the best $99 phone you'll find on Verizon Wireless, but otherwise, there's not much n...
