Apple iPhone 5c

Phone owned for more than a year

This phone has been in my family for over a decade and it still functions completely. Although it has plastic housing, the plastic is durable and won't shatter like the back glass on later phones. My only complaint is that dust has been able to get into the camera.

Good phone for kid

Phone owned for more than a year

Phone battery dies after a couple of hours, my texts don't work sometimes, my passcode doesn't work sometimes. I've had this phone since it came out and it's not the best phone to own, I won't get another 5c.

GOOD SOLID phone

Phone owned for less than a year

This is a good phone and very solid. iOS very easy to use but non customizable. Happy with it except for low RAM and poor build. Camera is poor too. Apps are very good. Hardware seems good as the everyday use is good. poor battery. Can't use without a case. Dropped it from 40cm and got a small crack but display very good 4 inch. Overall good phone.

Great one

Phone owned for more than a year

Had it over a year, uses it more than the computer. Almost never lags unless too many tweaks are running at the same time. It is jailbroken but works fine, even better with jailbreak in my opinion. Can play All apps on the AppStore without lagg in question at all. HD screen, HD rear cam, almost as good as the iPhone 6. But I whouldn't recommend iPhone 6, unless for the additional storage. I think I'll buy either the latest LG G phone or Nexus when this badass phone has taken it's last breath.

One of my Fave

Phone owned for less than a year

I absolutely love this phone. I've had about a dozen over the past decade and this one has really taken the cake. I lose the iOS; it's a super user-friendly interface and it's easy to understand. I'm not a huge fan of the camera (the quality is good for what kind of phone it is, but I'd prefer better) but it's still very good. I've got a bone to pick with Apple and its propensity to add "other" storage all the time, since it consumes almost 4Go (half my memory) of space, but aside from that this phone is a gem!

Best Mid-Range Phone Ever

Phone owned for less than a year

This phone's display and quality is OK for a low-budget phone. Apple has made a good job to give this phone an A6 Chip with is now on iPhone 5. I recommend this phone to everyone who wants a low-budget but high-quality phone. Battery and camera are OK.

One of the Best Mid Range Phones

Phone owned for less than 3 months

I have bought this Phone at the insistance of my wife and sons. Initially I felt it is premitive as compared to android phones. Now I started loving it. It never hangs. Battery performance is also good. But remind me of bluetooth sharing on android.
I didn't like the calendar and reminder.

Clever combination of phone plus apple cases

Phone owned for less than a month

What I really like about the 5c, is that it isnt just about tech specifications. It does everything that the 4s I previously owned did .(But slightly faster, on a bigger screen, and with a bit more capablity.) It also has personal appeal. In the colour choice of the phone. As well as being slim-lined. And in the various colour choices in the cases. To hold the 5c with one of the cases, (the ones from apple ,with the holes in) is just as tactile as holding the shiny phone itself. Gives it a different feel. The cases are hugely (unjustly?) expensive in UK. But it will be enjoyable to gradually save and buy different colours. So maybe, 19 months into a 24 month contract, you still have an option to spice up your phone. At least,cosmetically.

Good phone, excellent feeling

Phone owned for less than 3 months

First off, clearly neo_huang didn't know what he was saying, I felt some evident bias on his side. Plus not even the worst phone has all 1's, so he was just trying to pull rating down for some personal vendetta or perhaps he is an android lover boy. However the phone is good, it actually does have a good firm and quality feel, maybe due to the heaviness and clean plastic feel. And the phone got mixed reviews, but generally they were favourable. The iphone 5c also has the internationally reputable camera that the iPhones have been known to have, unlike what he said. However the battery isn't the greatest, but it works and last a full day of use. Ios7 isn't that bad, it has some pretty cool new features, it was just a little glitchy at the beginning, as with new any new os. The App Store is excellent obviously, clearly the guy didn't know how to use a zoom, otherwise I don't know why he is complaining about screen size, and it is just as large as most mid sized phone screens. The resolution and ppi are excellent, giving it a good screen, and good colour replication as well as brightness and contrast.
The processor is solid, and smoother than any phone on the market regardless, apple just has great fluency in the display area. Otherwise everything works well, lte network and generally fast. Good feel , good phone.

Special Gift

Phone owned for less than 3 months

Iphone 5c is colourful and it currently running on ios 7.The more gigabytes you have, the more content you can store on your iPhone — apps, games, photos, HD videos, music, movies, and more. For example, if you have a large music or photo library or you frequently download HD movies, it’s a good idea to consider an iPhone with a larger storage capacity. If you have a relatively small music or photo library or rarely make or buy movies, an iPhone with a smaller capacity may be better for you. Of course, over time you will accumulate many things on your iPhone, so you’ll want to think about how your storage needs may evolve.

Ehh... So-So

Phone owned for less than a month

*Sorry, someone else posted a review with my account that had all one's.
Overall, the iPhone 5c would be pretty good if it had a bigger display. It is fast and has a pretty good camera. I am disappointed in Apple for using a plastic back. Finally, Apple has control over everything on this, mostly because of iTunes.

Satisfied with it

Phone owned for less than 3 months

So far, I am loving this phone. I had the iPhone 3GS prior to this, so this was a nice upgrade. Much faster, better photos, and more memory for my apps. Granted, it is encased in plastic, as most buyers prefer the 5S with its metal body. I keep mine in a fully enclosed case, so who could tell from looking. The increase in screen size (minimal by a persnickety user)is welcome, and the flash feature is something I was happy to finally have. A word of advice, some apps have a tendency to drain the battery, like Candy Crush Saga. I would suggest using autocorrect, and watch out for the relatively closeness of the "i" and "o" keys, easy to mix up when typing fairly quickly. A downer, as with other Apple products, no Adobe Flash included.
