[captainwhat]

Will stick with my 5 and wait for the 6. Touch ID does nothing for me.

 

[Lynn616]

Seems like a well rounded upgrade.
I'm gonna stick with my 4S though.

Same here. 4S forever.

 

[kingocfs]

Will buy black 5S.

You mean Space Grey

 

[kaskade]

I really don't want to pay 400 bucks for 64 gb. I might just stick with the 32 for now and clean up my itunes.

 

[jokkir]

Damn 16GB is fail.

So I'm assuming the

iPhone 5C is competition for the Nexus 4, Galaxy S4, Galaxy Note 3

iPhone 5S is competition for HTC One, Xperia Z1, Lumia 1020?

Why would the 5C be in competition for the S4 and Note 3?

 

[RoKKeR]

Will stick with my 5 and wait for the 6. Touch ID does nothing for me.

It's a cool feature, but I need a bigger screen. Not ready to go back.

 

[Doc Holliday]

Cool stuff, but I'll hold on to my 5 until Iphone 6

 

[helloresolven]

Every rumour 100% panned out.

Double down on security my ass.

The leaks don't come from within Apple though. They come once the items have been produced and are being moved around. Honestly, do you fucking think they can control the entire supply chain?

 

[jts]

My UNIQUE slate iPhone 5. I love uuuuuu.

Batman phone.

 

[TheChewyWaffles]

Will stick with my 5 and wait for the 6. Touch ID does nothing for me.

Yep, I'm in the same boat.

 

[woxel1]

With that logic, can you get your complaints out of here? No one cares that you don't care about what his phone does better than the iPhone.

I, um, uh... what?

 

[jstripes]

Those ram bump prices are still crazy. $100 for 16GB of flash gets harder to swallow every year

Ya, it's bullshit.

But it's like gas prices. All the companies seem to be in line with it.

 

[Incognito]

The only paranoia i see in here are from the people who actually believe, in spite of ALL recent relevations to the contrary, that our fingerprints wont be stored by apple and transmitted directly to the nsa, dea, or fbi.

 

[sky]

Leaks = most boring apple reveal ever :/

 

[malfcn]

Is the "space grey" color supposed to mitigate against another scuff-gate?

 

[Baron Doggystyle von Woof]

Will stick with my 5 and wait for the 6. Touch ID does nothing for me.

Same here. no need for upgrade.

 

[RedAssedApe]

release ios7 gm now

 

[DXB-KNIGHT]

It's a cool feature, but I need a bigger screen. Not ready to go back.

Ditto

 

[killertofu]

Wow the black iPhone 5S looks terrible compared to the black 5. What the hell?

probably cause 5's sides kept chipping

 

[railGUN]

If a fingerprint scanner is appealing to the NSA, imagine a system that sits on your face and can record (and be tapped into) to see everything and everyone you see.

 

[Liha]

iWatch come on

 

[artist]

 

[Deepo]

December outside the tier 1 countries?!?!

Fuck that.

 

[FerranMG]

Yep, new black sucks.
I'm probably gonna get this, but only because I don't like white (aka silver), and gold..., well, a golden phone sounds ridiculous, lol.

 

[Calion]

This thing is fucking awesome.

 

[Majine]

Music. iPods then.

 

[adamantypants]

I'm into the TouchID...

 

[EleventhDoctor]

Yeah-pricing is dissapointing-but what are you gonna do.

Time to pre-order.

 

[LCfiner]

Uhh how are they going to integrate iTunes with this then? It seems exploitable if this is true.

itunes has different permissions than 3rd party apps. it’s built into the default OS instl.


anyway, looks like we’re done.

I was surprised and disappointed by the 5C’s pricing. $100 minimum on contract means an off contract price of around 500 or 550. which is kinda nuts for what it is, imo.

I’m sure this will all do well in subsidized markets but I wonder if Apple will get any greater sales in China, India or parts of Europe with these prices on their plastic phone. It’s not an aggressive move at all to try to get into those places.

 

[AHA-Lambda]

One more thing? Music?

 

[Macho Madness]

Will the 5S be up for preorder on Friday?

 

[Takamura-San]

no ipad?

 

[Face it Tiger..]

My only question is,

when is the iOS 7 GM?!

 

[pxleyes]

I have a white and black iPhone 4S 16gb for Verizon for sale. $300 each OBO.

 

[FamousLastX]

Sorry if this was answered already, but will the iOS 7 GM be available today? Didn't see it mentioned, but I would assume it would have to be with public iOS 7 launch next week.

 

[nikos]

RIP black Iphone 5.

Yeah RIP black MacBooks too, those were great.

Going to sell mine to upgrade, but the color will be missed. Space grey looks nice, but I think I want a white front this time around.

 

[Brinbe]

Not bad at all. The 5S is a worthy upgrade.

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Am I the only one who can't stand Ives? Reminds me of a guy who would be in San Fran in that one South Park episode.

The prices still for a screen that hasn't moved at all in a long time are pretty meh at best.

 

[yogloo]

Have they announced when ios7 is available?

 

[Drakeon]

Will the 5S be up for preorder on Friday?

Yes, they announced pre-orders start on the 13th.

 

[Baron Doggystyle von Woof]

no ipad?

next month, yo.

 

[jokkir]

September 18

EDIT - Or am I thinking of something else lol

 

[subrock]

Music. iPods then.

a band...

 

[RedAssedApe]

Will the 5S be up for preorder on Friday?

yup preorder firday. available in stores 9/20

 

[VeryGooster]

I was on the white 5C train until they talked about the camera and Touch ID.

 

[BFIB]

The $99 5C is going to sell like mad.

Otherwise, I miss Steve Jobs innovation.

 

[Jea Song]

Last year allot of people were upgrading from their 4 to a 5. I was in the 4s camp and didn't think the 5 was much an upgrade.

Now it's my turn to upgrade and all the 5 owners are saying there isn't much an upgrade but as a 4s owner, I'm defiantly upgrading to the 5s.

I don't see it. In those markets you already had the 4S this year at that price, so how is the 5C any different?

 

[BigJonsson]

A coworker told me she thinks the gold phone looks tacky.

South Park agrees

 

[Gamerloid]

Not very exciting, everything leaked.

And why on earth would you pick a C over an S?

Spoiled children I take it lol
