As was widely predicted even after denials by Tim Cook a cheaper iPhone was churned out. Nothing to call home about though in my opinion as it has precisely the same specs as the iPhone 5, only more plastic. The touch id fingerprint thing is due though and in my opinion is the killer feature. If it works as advertised then it takes exclusivity to a whole new level. Owning the phone is that much more personal. -- Regards, Mark Mwangi markmwangi.me.ke
Touch ID is a game changer & it's implementation IMHO especially when it gets it's way on the iPad will be limitless in a multiuser environment. The 64bit part is a wow for technical enthusiasts - am sure it is now going to be a benchmark for all future phone releases. They talked for so long about the camera & still failed to tell us the magic number, the megapixels, but still a great improvement. Oh & the iPhone5C is not plastic, it's a polycarbonate - hehehe, new name for plastic, I guess! & the gold 64bit 64GB iPhone5S is mine, no one should book it ;-) ./Ok3ch Sent from my iPad On Sep 10, 2013, at 23:53, Mark Mwangi <mwangy@gmail.com> wrote:

I think Touch ID for me is the 'wow factor' that has made me think about getting that iPhone! It also happens to be the second feature that got me drooling in a very long time..IMHO, all the other new features in the recent past have been a waste of time! Game-changer if you ask me... Having said the above, i'm sure Samsung is already hiring 'Biometric Engineers' to come up with S Touch ID that will be built into the Galaxy S5! :) On 11 September 2013 06:59, Okechukwu <okechukwu@gmail.com> wrote:

Wait till the devices hit the markets and the reviews flow, then you realise the Galaxy Note III is the best smartphone in the market. Touch ID or none. Apple has nothing revolutionary beyond the touch ID and an improved battery life for the 5s, the 5c doesn't come cheap, at $549, the user's are just being given the chance to bring out the Lumia fancy in them.
