Yes, you can. And that what I meant when I said $550.

 

iPhone 5s

16GB - $650
32GB - $750
64GB - $850

iPhone 5c

16GB - $550
32GB - $650

lol those prices are even more outrageous than the vita's memory cards.

Whats the point of having a 'cheap' model if it's still fucking expensive, a cheap iPhone of 199$ would be a gamechanger.

While 5S looks great and neat, this really is overpriced and not worth it.



This is ridiculous. The "cheap" iPhone is still significantly more expensive than ALL premium Android phones. (iPhone 5C 599 €, Xperia Z: 449 €, Galaxy S4 439 €, HTC One 519 €) and is inferior in EVERY WAY! It doesn't have Full HD, it has an old processor, no quad-core or anything. The display is jsut 4" while (cheaper) Top Androids have 5". It is made out of plastic, while the HTC One has a Aluminum unibody and the Xperia Z is made out of mineral glass (and water proof). This is a joke.

Fuck Apple, seriously.

I don't think it's overpriced (iPhone 5s). Thats usually the price for any new flagship new phone.
All of them launch with a price around $600-$650.
The difference is that the others will drop price quickly (in one or two months) while the iPhone will hold its price until the new one come out.



I'll stick with my windows phone. It's been great.

But I guess Kudos to apple for... "trying" to make a $*cheaper*$ phone while only making a... cheaper phone.

Is this some kind of a joke?

it's pretty much an iPhone 5 made of colourful plastic, selling at the same price (or higher) than iPhone 5 is selling at now

I mean, people were expecting Apple to announce a low cost iPhone. This most definitely is not that. And this won't compete with Samsung either.

This fails to achieve two things: It's neither cheap NOR new or innovative in any way.


It is low-cost - for Apple (to produce) :D

And the sad part is, this will most likely still sell well.



Lol this is why Apple is so lame. It should be $200 cheaper, not $100. I bet their profit margins are huge on this since it's using older technology but they're charging new phone price.

So, Apple has finally dropped down from their high horses and joined the rest of the regular people :). Still think it is a bit pricey though...

Nope, they're still high as hell prices.

Apple is for people who like "Bling Bling" and seeing that ugly golden Iphone it seems its going to sell a lot.
