Gorgeous design ; Beautiful colors and craftsmanship ; Global LTE support ; Most affordable new iPhone yet

Last year's internals ; Camera stumbles in low light

With the iPhone 5c, Apple's crafted something that's more than just the sum of its parts. It's easy to be cynical and dismiss this handset as just an iPhone 5 in a colorful plastic shell, but that's missing the point. There's no doubt that the 5c looks...

Look at all the colors! ; iPhone 5 internals still solid ; Great camera

Not as nice as the iPhone 5 ; iOS 7 still needs polish

Wrapping the iPhone 5 in a new case still makes for a pretty good phone

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 4-inch screen is starting to feel small. No significant new hardware features.

In our office building's basement, we made test calls and ran data speed tests with the iPhone 5c, 5s, 5, the LG G2, and the Samsung Galaxy S4. The LG G2 had the most trouble connecting calls, and the Galaxy S4 the least, and the newer iPhones leading...

Main iSight camera in iPhone 5c is very easy to use ; 8MP of resolution is a nice amount in a smartphone camera ; Panorama mode is extremely strong with the 5c ; Image quality is good with this device's camera versus other smartphones ; Apple iOS 7...

Not enough options for controlling 5c's camera manually ; Exposure accuracy could be better in photos ; Low light photography results tend to have some noise and could be of a better quality ; Touchscreen could have more resolution and could be larger...

The Apple iPhone 5c is a very easy to use smartphone with a great iOS 7 interface, and this device's built-in iSight 8MP camera is extremely easy to use as well. The iPhone 5c's camera doesn't provide much in the way of manual control over your...

Apple throwing its hat into the multi-device race marks a very important change for the company. I’ve always believed that the smartphone space would end up looking a lot like the PC industry, or in Apple’s case, the Mac business. Apple presently...

Great build quality; Wide selection of well attuned accessories; Intuitive, beautiful operating system; Decent camera; Impressively precise GPS module; Low emissions and low power consumption; Still fast enough for all current apps; Great Retina display

but with a low non-HD resolution; Barely any cheaper than the iPhone 5s; Small phone with a tiny screen size (compared to the competitors); No 64-bit support; Performance levels not quite high-end

That Apple creates a smartphone that is caught between two stools, neither being a lot cheaper than the iPhone 5s (apart from the apparent price difference when carrier subsidies are taken into account) nor being decidedly more powerful than current...

For a long time, we expected the 5c to stand for “cheap”. In actual fact, it’s “cheerful”; the iPhone 5c brings a welcome blast of playfulness to Apple’s line-up, and with the five bright colors on offer (not to mention the affordable cases) we can...
