Episode 23: iPhone 5c and 5s
Dan is joined by Christina Warren, Horace Dediu, Benedict Evans, and Haddie Cooke to discuss their thoughts on the September 10th Apple Event announcing the iPhone 5c, iPhone 5s, and more. Links for this episode:Apple - Apple Events - Special Event September 2013Apple iPhone 5s hands-on pictures and impressions | The VergeAs it turns out, everything that we'd seen from the rumors were true: the iPhone 5s is faster, of course, with a dual-LED flash and the much-vaunted fingerprint scanner on the home button. And yes, it comes in a gold color, which actually looks better in person compared with the many leaked images we've seen. After all that, however, you would be hard-pressed to distinguish the iPhone 5s from the iPhone 5 — if you are picking one up in "Space Gray" or white, the only visible difference will be the ring around your home button and the slightly larger flash. T-Mobile Confirms Sale Of iPhone 5S And iPhone 5C, No Simple Choice Pricing...Yet | TmoNewsTmoNewsWe know that the iPhone 5C will be available for pre-order on September 13th and both devices will arrive on September 20th. As of today, there’s no sign of a pre-order for the iPhone 5S. T-Mobile’s press release highlights Simple Choice pricing and JUMP!, but doesn’t make any mention of how much the devices will cost with equipment installment plans. Apple Announces iPhone 5s With 'Touch ID' Fingerprint Sensor - Mac RumorsAt its media event today, Apple introduced the new iPhone 5s. In line with expectations, the iPhone 5s will be the same size and design and the current iPhone 5 but will feature improved specifications and will be available in three colors: Silver, Gold, and Space Gray. Apple Announces Colorful New iPhone 5c, Starting at $99 on Two-Year Contract - Mac RumorsApple today announced the new lower-priced iPhone 5c, replacing the iPhone 5 in Apple's phone lineup. The new device is available in five different colors -- green, yellow, blue, white, and pink -- in a polycarbonate design. The phone uses the same A6 processor and rear-facing camera as the iPhone 5. Apple posted a new product video, featuring Jony Ive, for the 5c. iPhone 5s Includes New 'M7' Motion Coprocessor for Health and Fitness Tracking - Mac RumorsApple's iPhone 5s is equipped with both an A7 processor and a new "M7" chip that is otherwise known as a "motion coprocessor." It is designed to work alongside the A7 processor, capturing motion data from the phone's compass, accelerometer, and gyroscope to power a new generation of health and fitness apps.
