The iPhone 5C
The first device revealed by Apple, the 5C is certainly more colorful than any other Apple phone, perhaps even more colorful than any iPod. Instead of the metallic finishes that usually adorn Apple products, the 5C's color scheme look like it was designed by either a candy manufacturer or an elementary school art class.
However, Apple emphasize that tough it looks playful, it is still a phone equal in power and performance to the iPhone 5. Phil Schiller, Apple's VP of marketing, said that the company also hasn't skimped on it's structure, saying that the 5C is reinforced with steel. "you are going to be blown away by how rigid and great it feels in your hand,"said Schiller.
iPhone 5C and 5S First look
The iPhone 5S
While Schiller did not talk much about how iPhone 5C differed from the iPhone 5, he was glad to talk about what makes the 5S special. The 5S now houses the 64-bit A7 processor, which the company promises will be a leap in both CPU performance and graphical processing compared to the iPhone 5.
Aside the improved processing power, Apple unveiled a new security measures: the fingerprint sensor that had been speculated about for nearly a month: a fingerprint sensor embedded into the home button.
The fingerprint sensor and software package, called Touch ID, was Apple's response to over half it's iPhone users forgoing any type of security password or PIN. "We can set up a passcode, but some people find that too cumbersome, "said Schiller.
Rather than have users walk around with a phone ripe for the picking, Apple wants it's users to protect their phone from unauthorized users and use Touch ID. After a user places his or her thumb on the home button, Apple says that the phone "reads the fingerprint at a very detailed level. " In addition to accessing your phone itself, the thumbprint can also be used to log into iTunes.
