iPhone 5c or 5s?

[Anonymous]

Right okay, I'm in desperate need of a new phone as my HTC windows phone 8x has given me problems since the first day I got it. I'm planning on updating to an iPhone as I've heard good things about them. But I'm unsure on which one to get. Do I get the 5s, or is that a waste of money? Or the 5c, or does that look really cheap? I don't want to waste my money as I'm in my mid-teens and I only get paid monthly as I work part-time. Please can you tell me the major differences and the pros and cons between the two? Thank you.

If you live near an apple store go in and play with the demo models of each phone.

Hi

The 5c has a plastic casing where's the 5s has metal casing.

The 5c is also slower than 5s.

5s has the touch id, 5c doesn't.

Camera is also better on the 5s.

Depends on what you want in a phone really.

Ahh right! So all in all, the 5s is better?

I had a play with both and got the 5s as it was better in many ways in my opinion.

Have a play in store before you decide.

I would say from a durability and general usage point of view the 5s is worth the extra

I think it is a much better phone as well, it's just the thought of wasting that much money on it that's setting me back.. I think I'll just go for the 5s, I'll have a go with both of them when I'm in the store next time. Thank you:)

I think yeah, there's no point getting a cheap feeling phone, think I'll just get the 5s. Thank you!

Yes it is much better than the 5c

Both are good handsets.

The 5c is a replacement for the iPhone 5.
