Apple iPhone 5C arrives with plastic body, 5 colors in tow

Apple does devices on the cheap 

  

A new, cheap iPhone is here for your consideration. The Apple iPhone 5C went from plasticized dream to hard and fast reality at Cupertino's international press events today.
Apple CEO Tim Cook stood up on stage and said that Apple is "really excited" about the new, cheaper (by Apple standards) iPhone.
Available in a smattering of colors - green, white, red, blue, and yellow - the phone is "made from all the incredible technology of the iPhone 5," Cook said.
Along with the iPhone 5S, also made official today, the iPhone 5C is replacing the current iPhone 5.

'Beautifully, unapologetically plastic'

Apple spent a while justifying the iPhone 5C's body, saying it's "beautifully, unapologetically plastic," but considering the lower price of the new iPhone, many people probably won't complain.
The 16GB version will be $99 on a two-year contract, and the 32GB iPhone 5C will be cost $199. SIM-free, the device will cost $549/£469/AU$739 and $649/£549/AU$869, respectively.
