    They're cleverly hiding the home button on all slides.

    Not really, that device has no ear speaker, light sensor or front camera either.

    Fake device just for screen shots I guess.

    It's not a 5 though?

    to be honest i thought that it didnt look like any iphone i've seen, looked curved on the side but on closer inspection it looks like a 5

    The sides and buttons are different from the 5 also and they didn't cut off the top just on the slide, it doesn't exist on the device. Weird decision if the 5s is to just look like the 5.

    It's like an large nano that takes calls. I'll take one!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,207 ✭✭✭miralize


    Impressive spec


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,360 ✭✭✭DubDJ


    Moment of truth with the price.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,598 ✭✭✭joe316


    If they make this 299 then they will blow their competition in that bracket away.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Arts Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 22,698 CMod ✭✭✭✭Sad Professor


    I'm expecting this to be $499.

    So the 5C powered by the A6 running iOS7.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,029 ✭✭✭PinkFly


    Any word on a release date yet?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,639 ✭✭✭✭murpho999


    Does it seem to have a higher spec than the original 5?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,034 ✭✭✭mad muffin

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,357 ✭✭✭emo72

    Better battery and better front camera.


  • Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 21,504 Mod ✭✭✭✭Agent Smith


    I'm calling the 5s to be starting at $249


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,815 ✭✭✭mailforkev


    I think that makes the 5C only $100 less than the 5.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,639 ✭✭✭✭murpho999


    Better battery and better front camera.

    Better battery is good news, hope the 5s (or whatever it will be called) will have an even better battery!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,540 ✭✭✭freeze4real


    Any where to watch the live keynote, not cnet or anything.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,780 ✭✭✭Frank Lee Midere


    So has it got more expansive to get the entry level iPhone? The 4 was free on American contracts. If all they have done here is replace the 5 (last years model) without a price drop that's useless.

    This is effectively last years device. It looks fine. Needs to be cheaper.
    That said they may be weaning themselves off American subsidies so it may be cheaper off contract.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,598 ✭✭✭joe316


    If thats the contract prices, it'll be 499 which like the ipad mini doesnt hit the sweet spot price wise :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,207 ✭✭✭miralize


    Looks cool

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,357 ✭✭✭emo72


    let down on those prices. too dear


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,360 ✭✭✭DubDJ


    Looks like it will be €499 for the 5C and then a little bit extra for the 5S. Maybe a €150 difference. Most will probably just go the for 5S.

    Yeah. Unless they are losing that sweet deal with the American carriers.

    yes, in your head :)
    no live key note for this event.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,639 ✭✭✭✭murpho999


    5S confirmed as well as new Gold/Champagne colour.

    The price seems reasonable considering this is a replacement for the 5 and not the 4S as previously predicated. The specs are almost identical. This was never going to be a "cheap" iPhone.

    The iPad Mini was much more expensive than hoped as well and it didn't do it any harm.
