Meh I'm a few iPhones behind. I got the 4s last year and won't be up for an upgrade till next year so looks like the 5s will be what I'll be upgrading to, then.

I kinda like the 5S, but I've still got a year and a half before I can even upgrade so I'll wait for the 6/6S. Sprint needs an early upgrade program.  |

The one thing I was hoping for, a model with a larger screen, didn't happen. Better luck next year, eh?

Congratulations your IPhone 5 is now obsolete. Funny thing is, unlike every other iDevice which just gets a price cut, iPhone 5 is just going to be not sold anymore. Also, why the hell do smartphones have to be so expensive when you buy them out of contract? I mean, I get the idea of subsidized prices and all that, but the 16 GB iPhone 5C (the "cheap" phone) being $549 is ridiculous. |

I bought a Nokia Lumia 521 for 130$ and it does everything I need, save for the app library on Windows Phone 8 being a bit anemic. Similarly spec'd android phones cost about the same. An unlocked Google Nexus 4 costs $299. You can't use Apple as the benchmark. |

Well that's one meaning of the C, the other being Color, as the 5c comes in a range of non-standard iPhone colors like green and pink. |

Never been too impressed with the S models and it stays that way with this announcement. The C models are neat (wouldn't mind a green one) but my 5 is still in excellent shape so no upgrade needed. I'm more looking forward to getting my hands on iOS7 next week and learning everything that comes with it, though teaching it to the various members of my family is not something I am looking forward too.

The big thing I am looking forward to in iOS7 is game controller support, as it hopefully means the beginning of the end for those damned virtual joysticks......

Make 'em call applecare. That's what they're there for. |
