Add caption |
The iPhone 5c is a touchscreen-based smartphone developed
by Apple Inc. It
is one of two successor to the iPhone
5, along with its higher-end corresponding item, the iPhone 5s. Apple held an affair to formally
introduce the iPhone 5c and 5s on September 10, 2013, and is at this time
taking pre-orders for the 5c on carrier sites.
The
iPhone 5c runs on the latest iteration of the iOS operating system, iOS
7, which was announce at the company's Apple Worldwide
Developers Conference (WWDC)
2013.[1]
The 5c
uses much of the same hardware as the iPhone 5, lacking new features from
the 5s: it uses the earlier A6 chip from the iPhone 5 in its
place of the A7,
does not includefingerprint
recognition, and lacks the Burst iSight camera mode and Slow-motion
video recording mode. It uses a polycarbonate casing (in blue, green, pink, yellow,
and white colors) instead of the metal used by the 5 and 5s.[2]

history, iTunes Radio, and AirDrop
The iPhone 5c features iOS,
Apple's mobile operating
system.[3] The user interface of iOS is base on the concept of direct
manipulation, using multi-touch
gestures. Interface control elements consist of sliders, switch, and
buttons.[4] Interaction
with the OS includes gestures such as swipe, tap, pinch, and reverse pinch, all of which
have specific definition within the context of the iOS in service classification
and its multi-touch interface. Internal accelerometers are used by some applications to respond
to quaking the device (one common result is the undo command) or rotating it perpendicularly
(one common result is switch from portrait to landscape mode).[4]
The
iPhone 5c will ship with iOS 7, which will be unconfined on September 18, 2013.[5] The
phone can act as a hotspot, sharing its internet relationship
over Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or USB, and also access the App Store, an online application distribution platform for iOS developed and preserve
by Apple. The service allows user to browse and downloadapplications from
the iTunes Store that
were developed with Xcode and the iOS
SDK and were published
through Apple.[6]
iOS 7
adds AirDrop, an ad-hoc WiFi sharing platform. Users can share files with any
Mac with Lion or
above, iPhone 5 onwards, iPod Touch (5th
generation), iPad (4th
generation), or iPad Mini.[7][8] The
operating system also adds Control Center, which gives iOS users access
to commonly used controls and apps. By swipe up from any screen–including the
Lock screen–users can do such things as switch to Airplane mode, turn Wi-Fi on or off, adjust the display
brightness and similar basic function of the device. It also includes a new
integrated flashlight function to operate the reverse camera's flash LED as aflashlight.
The iPhone 5c can play music, movies, television
shows, ebooks, audiobooks, andpodcasts and can sort its media library by
songs, artists, albums, videos, playlists,genres,
composers, podcasts, audiobooks, and compilations. Options are always presented
alphabetically, except in playlists, which retain their order from iTunes.[9] Users
can rotate their device horizontally to landscape mode to access a collage of album covers.
Scrolling is achieved by swiping a finger across the screen. Alternatively, earpiece
controls can be used to pause, play, skip, and repeat tracks. On the 5, the
volume can be changed with the included Apple Earphones, and the influence
Control feature can be used to recognize a track, play songs in a playlist or
by a specific artist, or create a Genius playlist.[9]
The 5c
includes Siri, an intelligent
personal assistant and knowledge
navigator. The application uses a natural language
user interface to
answer questions, make recommendations, and perform actions by delegating
requests to a set of Web services. Apple claims that the software
adapts to the user's individual preferences over time and personalizes results.[10] iOS
7 adds new male and female voices, new system setting functionalities, a
redesign to match the rest of the operating system, and integration with
Twitter, Wikipedia, Bing, and Photos.[11]
The iPhone 5c features Apple Maps and Passbook.
It uses Apple's vector-based locomotive that eliminates lag,
making for smoother zooming.
The mapping application includes turn-by-turn
navigation spoken
directions, 3D views in some major cities and real-time traffic.[12]iOS 7 is able to retrieve documents
such as boarding passes, admission tickets, couponsand loyalty cards through its new Passbook app. An iOS
device with Passbook can be scanned under a reader to
process a mobile payment at locations that have compatible
hardware. The app has context-aware features such as notifications for relevant
coupons when in the immediate vicinity of a given store.[12][13]
Facebook
comes integrated through Apple's native apps. Facebook features can be directly
access from within native apps such as Calendar which can sync Facebook events,
or use Facebook's like button from
within the Apple App Store.[14]
Specifications[edit source | editbeta]
The colors
of the iPhone 5c
The
iPhone 5c will make use of Apple's previous generation A6 processor, the same
processor that powered the iPhone 5. Apple announced during the keynote that
the iPhone 5c will use most of the same internals of the iPhone 5,[15] except
the battery, which has increased in capacity,[16] and
antennas, which have been redesigned for the plastic body and now cover more
LTE bands than any other smartphone according to Apple.[15] The
iPhone 5c will not make use of the iPhone 5s' Touch
ID finger print
scanner. iPhone 5c features a 4-inch multi-touch display, which has 1136×640
pixels resolution. However it will be mass-produced and will be cheaper. iPhone
5c will be available in 16 GB and 32 GB capacities, and in theUS will
cost US$99
and $199 on a 2-year contract, or $549 and $649 off contract.[17]
Production positioning[edit source | editbeta]
The
iPhone 5s becomes the new flagship of the iPhone range, the 5c is designed as a
mid-range model, and the iPhone 4S continues
in production but has been relegated to the entry-level of the iPhone series.
The iPhone 5S 16 GB will retail in the US for US$199 on contract or $649
off contract, the 5c 16 GB goes for US$99 on-contract or $549 off
contract, and the price of the iPhone 4S 8 GB has dropped down to free
with a two-year contract or US$449 off contract.[18][19]
Unlike
past iPhone releases, where the previous generation model continues to be
produced but sold at a lower price point alongside the newest model, the iPhone
5 will not move to a lower price point as it will
be discontinued in favor of the 5c. It was believed that Apple's old strategy
of using older iPhone iterations, while still successful, would not have spark
as much demand as a new iPhone would. As Apple expected most iPhone loyalists
and power users to upgrade to the flagship 5s, the 5s was not the meeting point
of the marketing campaign, instead the 5c will be aimed at revitalizing
attention to the iPhone brand by attracting new users who were otherwise turned
off to the company's put into practice of using "last year's" iPhone
as the cheaper option. The polycarbonate 5c is expected to be considerably
cheaper to produce than the metal iPhone 5, so that Apple can retain its high
profit margins per device.
The iPhone
5c was rumored to be the long-awaited inexpensive iPhone, however it is
actually a mid high-end smartphone which competes with the HTC One Mini and Moto
X.[20] Like
previous iPhones it does not compete in the feature phone segment nor the unsubsidized/prepaid
category.[18][19]
Apple-branded accessories[edit

Announced
during the iPhone event keynote, Apple will be making a case for the iPhone 5C
that will be available in 6 colors; Black, White, Pink, Yellow, Blue, Green.
Holes are cut out of the case to show the color of the iPhone's back through
the case, making for an almost 2-tone looking device. The cases and phone
colors make for 30 different color grouping.[21] The
inside of the case is lined with soft microfiber, with the external being made
of silicone. This is the first time Apple at large a case for an iPhone given
that the iPhone 4 with the iPhone 4 Bumpers.
Apple
also released an unexpected dock for the iPhone 5c,[22] the
first time Apple has made a harbor since the iPhone 4.
