Rock & Roll Hall of Game Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Apple introduced a lower-cost iPhone 5C alongside the iPhone 5S -- the company's flagship smartphone. Apple senior vice president Phil Schiller took the stage to announce the iPhone 5C. The new device is made of plastic and has a 4-inch display. It has a hard-coated polycarbonate design, is steel reinforced and has a multi-band antenna. It comes in five colors: green, white, blue, pink, and yellow. The iPhone 5C will cost $99 for a 16GB model or $199 for a 32 GB model, with contracts. A colorful variety of cases will cost $29. The iPhone 5C will go on sale on Sept. 20, with pre-orders starting on Sept. 13. The iPhone 5S has a 4-inch display and comes in silver, gold and a color called space gray. The hardware has been upgraded to an A7 chip, and is the first smartphone to be 64-bits. The iPhone's camera is getting a major upgrade. Apple is increasing the pixels to 1.5u to capture more light. The camera will also autodetect white balance as soon as the app is launched, and include burst mode and true tone flash. It also features a new image stabilizer and slow-motion video. the new iPhone will include Touch ID built into the home button. The sensor scans sub-epidermal skin layers and will have 360-degree readability. It is about 170 microns thin, with 500 ppi resolution. The fingerprint sensor can be used to unlock the iPhone or make purchases. "Your fingerprint is one of the best passes in the world. It's always with you, and no two are exactly alike," Apple senior vice president Jony Ive said in a promotional video. The iPhone 5S will come in three models: 16 GB for $199, 32GB for $299 and 64GB for $399, with a contract. The phone will go on sale on Sept. 20. iOS 7 will also be available next week The iPhone 5S will also come in gold now.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downeaznboi Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 If the i5c on contract all hell would break loose, but at 99 there are a lot of other options out there that are more compelling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no thumb reader in the iPhone 5. The iPhone 5s thumb reader is so fool proof... The thumb is stored off all iCloud and Apple servers... The thumb print cannot be accessed via any other way. Besides their M# chip or something totally nerdy like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
