Banned ads are always funny. They're not real banned ads of course, but that doesn't mean that they're not funny.
The iPhone 5c, which is going to dethrone the currently-reigning iPhone 5 as its more than capable successor, has just gone on pre-order in US, UK, Australia, China, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, Hong Kong and Singapore, and should you wish to be amongst the first ones to get your hands on Apple’s colorful new hardware, you can place your orders right now for delivery starting Sept. 20.
Specific feature sets of announced smartphones will always be extremely polarizing and appeal to one user while managing to entirely bore another. What we all care about is price. How much cash we will have to part with to have that device in our lives. Apple has done a pretty great job of keeping the cost of the new iPhones down, but if that isn't enough for some, then Walmart will be offering a discount on the devices when they eventually go public.
Battery life is an important aspect of any mobile device, although it has to be said, we don't always hold it in as high a regard as we perhaps should. Even in this day and age, seldom do consumers make battery life considerations until it's too late - instead blinded by an array of impressive, if often unnecessary features. With us now being in the period between the iPhone 5s and 5c's announcement and release, we can actually take the time to assess the minor details of the two new entrants to Apple's smartphone roster, and according to FCC filings discovered by AnandTech, both handsets will offer superior battery life to the iPhone 5.
So, the iPhone 5s and 5c have finally been revealed after months of speculation, and with the latter available to pre-order in just a couple of days, Apple fans have a bit of a decision to make. The iPhone 5s has certainly pushed the boundaries with a plethora of new features, but while the iPhone 5c may be distinctly similar in terms of hardware to the iPhone 5, its funky design and range of color options will surely render it a hit among consumers. But which will you choose?
Well that didn't take long. Just hours after Apple announced the new iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c, some of its competition is already beginning to launch the first attacks aimed to poke fun at the devices.
Apple has finally announced the iPhone 5c and iPhone 5s, two smartphones that have immediately confirmed the demise of the iPhone 5. In an event that also saw the iWork and iLife suite for iOS go free of charge on newer devices, there was plenty going on, and now, you can watch the keynote online in its entirety.
So, as predicted, the iPhone 5 is no more, and the iPhone 4s remains in the roster among the new iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c. To help prospective shoppers out, Apple has thrown up a comparison chart of the three models, and since we're scarcely acquainted with the iPhone 5s or 5c ourselves, we'll gather a better view on how they stand up against each other.
Well that's it folks, today's Cupertino based iPhone event has been and gone. It may not have contained the glitz and glamour that comes attached with Apple’s WWDC event, but it lived up to everything we expected while managing to deliver a little bit more in the process. The announcement of the iPhone 5c and iPhone 5s undoubtedly dominated the event, and Apple has now updated their official customer facing Website with a number of walkthrough videos to show off their latest tech.
With the newly announced iPhones, consumers will be looking to find suitable protective cases and covers in order to keep their new or prospective purchases in pristine condition. The aluminum finish of the iPhone 5s will, if anything like the iPhone 5, be susceptible to scratches and scrapes, and even though the iPhone 5c is a budget device, a sufficient, sturdy case should still be a priority. A couple have already begun to pop up on Apple's official site, and we'll be taking a look at some of them right after the break.
