iPhone 5c Is A Failure - That's a Shocker!
 

People want the real thing, not an cheaper imitation.

Story Here.

I dunno about all that, but I'm already sleeping out to get the next one. Posting from a tent right now.

the only failure about that device is the price .. for a couple of bucks more you can have top of the line? the iphone 5c should be same price as ipod touch , which should be cancelled

think about it? what makes an ipod touch so special ?? it is about exactly the same device as an iphone ,the only difference cant put in a sim or make phonecalls

just adding that functionality should not be too hard

message to apple, scrap ipod touch, replace with cheap iphone = $$$$

They release new ones so quick think ya gotta go with 5S, wouldn't even consider 5C :2 cents:

apple is finished. only a moron would buy their shit products. but ya most of you are parasite fanboys

Hhahaha pretty good....

but yeah the 5C is pretty weak, and I never understood why they made a choice colors such a big deal - anyone can buy colored cases for any phones anywhere.

iPhone 5crap :1orglaugh
iPhone 5sick :winkwink:

I did not understand the emphasis on the color. Most people use a case anyway. Marketing fail. They should have taken another angle.

Its because the price is too high. Its only 14% (or similar number) cheaper than 5s. So no its not affordable, it cost pretty much the same, everyone who can spend 700eur on 5c can spend 800Eur on 5S. So it does not make much sense to buy 5c when you can buy 5s for similar amount of money.
Price gap must be way bigger for 5c to be justified.

haha its comical how fucking stupid people are.

jerk off on your iphone fanboy

You may want to give your head a good scratch after that one...

pretty much tells us what apple thinks of their customer base and potential customers.

And actually even the 5S isn't terribly interesting... I have an iPhone 5 that I purchased about a year ago after I dropped my iphone 4s too many times. The 5s has only a few extra features over the 5 so to me it was not worth the upgrade. However my GF still has a 3 so I'll be buying her a 5s for Christmas.


It sure is!

The people that are generally strong against them couldn't afford them anyway, go check your stats maybe ya made a nickel today, Obama phone will save ya :1orglaugh

They had a large production push for launch and have enough stocked up to taper off production. The same thing happened with the iPhone 5. They aren't stopping production all together, just slowing things down after launch.

Actually wrong. People who have lots of money usually know how to count it and they do not like to overpay for anything. For example if I am rich I won't pay 10$ for a cup of tea. Would you come and say - you probably can not afford it? No. So why do you assume people who do not want to overpay for apple logo can not afford it? They just know its overpriced/overvalued and that means bad buy.

Haha, not really, they just didn't want to buy shitty phone for 3+ times it may worth and then depend on stupid itunes to do just about anything...

iTunes is an excellent product. It lets me buy all the music and movies and TV shows that I want, sync it with all of my other devices, easily imports my old CD's (and makes those playable on my other decides too). It also finds my mp3's and indexes them, downloads the cover art, creates playlists, plays music videos, streams to AppleTV, etc etc and on and on.

iTunes also lets me listen to thousands of radio stations, lets me discover new music, makes suggestions on what I might like (which is honestly hit or miss, but still).

Best of all it does everything completely legally and lets the content producers make the money they deserve.

Why don't you like it?

I won't say apple is crap. I've had the same iTouch now for years and still love it.

It's just that Apple was first, and made great stuff. Now... Everyone makes the same. An iPhone is no different than the phone I have.

Agreed......

I'm self-reliant person and I prefer to choose everything I need on my own without any suggestions.
I want to be able easily import and export any files I need to and from my phone/tablet without any external programs/interfaces and internet, I want to be able do with my phone/tablet whatever I want anytime I want, is it so difficult to understand?

over prices peace of shit :)

Are you stupid or what?

Apple is notorious for making their fanboys life harder. For example making them use itunes (to ********** - problem is not itunes as bad service, problem is that apple makes you use them whether you want it or not) or not providing usb. Just to name couple examples.

I have a Mac, iPad, Apple TV, Mac Mini, Macbook Pro & iPhone 5.

The office has a Mac on every desk and everyone has an iPad and iPhone.

Reason ? The product is superior to anything else on the market. It's a better eco system, it makes sense and people get work done faster and are happier while doing it.

Windows doesn't even have a terminal out of the box and then when you add Putty, because windows control c means something different than it does to the rest of the world, things like copy pasting, exiting processes etc just becomes tedious.

Have you ever tried syncing windows phones to an office of Windows desktops ? Just doesn't fucking work.

Exchange servers (Windows) bigest pieces of garbage ever invented in software.

It's not the Mac users who are so-called 'fanboys', it's the retards who still think having a massive box next to their legs and an OS that doesn't even have a terminal built in, let alone other standard tools, is better.

hahahaha, maybe , who knows :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Too many people have apple products, they couldnt "be finished" even if they tried to.
iphone 5c and 5s sold 9 million units their first weekend. Noone else has even come close to that mane sales that fast.

I personally agree with you; every one of my phones looks black because i have a black otterbox on them lol.

but many people dont buy cases and are into color. A friend of mine has a ferarri red windows phone and is always showing it off, and people "ohhhhhh" at it. it is a sexy phone lol

New versions of iPhones are gimmicks to make sales and they have a bunch of suckers. If you already have an iPhone why would you need another one?

I dont understand why people must spend a half a g every year for a new phone they end up complaining about until the next model "upgrade" comes out. People around here trade apple products like pokemon cards. Got my boyfriend a fairly new ipod touch 4 in exchange for a tattoo I did. rediculous.

Again osx supports maybe 6 computers, windows 7 supports over a million different computer builds and combinations.

Iphone 5c was too close in price to the high end iphone. Google can sell a phone no contract for$349
http://www.dvice.com/2013-10-18/goog...l-350-unlocked and thats a pretty kick ass phone. No reason apple couldnt sell their 5c for $300. They would of sold faster than they could build them.
Also apple phones are no longer status symbols when you can get them at walmart.

That's a horrible article. Written before windows 7 even came out. And they seriously put one of the reasons why it is better than windows is because linux can't run the newest version of photoshop?

Apple product are for people too stupid for technology (but think they are "geek"),liberal arts student or flamboyan homosexual.
Anyone who buys gayple crap made by 10yo chinese kids using technology that mr faggot steve jobs stole should be cock slapped

Lol - you can do that already. You can either use itunes or you can drag and drop, or you can do it at command line too. Whats your point?

You should give Apple a chance... thats all.

failure to what? the 5c alone is outselling any other phone out other than its big brother the 5s... two phone competing for sales own by the same company. Thats a win all around, Apple has the hottest two phones right now.

You act like a fanatic jehova's witness for apple. Please give it a rest already.

that's just due to initial sales rush and the fact competing phones are not released at the same time.

but according to the op article, that sales rush is over and the simple fact is samsung dominates the phone market.

We have many Windows pcs and just a few macs at the NETbilling offices. However, many of my staff really want a mac because that is what they use ant home and they know the OS and the reliability of the hardware.

The PCs are often having to be worked on, replaced, parts swapped or replaced, upgraded etc while the Macs keep humming along and never have any of the same issues.
We are considering ditching all of the PCs in the call center, and putting Macs in there.

Hell, I even still have a Mag G4 400 sitting on the floor using it for transaction monitoring, web surfing etc. when needed and it is running off of a 52" TV and it works perfectly, the same as it did when it was new, about 15 years ago. I can surely tell you that no windows machine would do that....

The PC fanboys just don't get that the iOS, MacOS, Mac hardware lines are all about usability, reliability and easy upgradability.
All of the devices easily sync all info, from email to music, to movies, to graphics, bookmarks, open browser tabs, apps, and all other purchases from an easy to use interface, and never needing a tech to help with it.

The Mac is superior. Windows doesn't compare, sorry.

I've had the Galaxy S4 and now the iphone 5c. The iphone provided a flawless experience however so did the S4, except the S4 is more compatible with google services (for a very obvious reason). Iphone ios7 doesn't allow push email with gmail :(. That's the only thing I miss when making the switch.

73 percent of all app revenue was generated in Apple's App Store as compared to only 23 percent for Google Play

But PCs are not only running windows.How many webserver runs on OSx?And how many on linux or windows servers?Macs are ok for call centers as you said,but for anything else,nope.
By using apple products,you support child slavery and thechnology sealing.

Also due to the fact that other companies has more models so sales spread out between the phones.

I will give you usability and maybe reliability (I can't get a Genius Bar appointment right now, before Friday...of they are so reliable, why is that?) but Apple products are the least upgradable machines on the market. They even make installing RAM a pain in the ass with the newer models. In most cases RAM being the only thing you can upgrade.

It has been discussed on plenty of the popular tech blogs. iOS versions of Google apps are more than often superior to the Android version. Gizmodo went as far as to call the iPhone the best "Google Phone".

Just this week a few of their apps got updates that the Android versions didn't. Some are still waiting for features their iOS counterparts have had for quite some time.

When you say upgradability do you mean adding more memory or buying a new computer?
Sure you can also replace harddrive in some of the Macs if you dare.

This video cracks me up.. hairdryer and dramatic music :1orglaugh




Upgradeability is about changing motherboard, upgrading your graphics card, replacing your CPU, and add more storage as you need it. All points where Mac computers fail - except to some degree Mac Pro.

For profit companies releasing products to make additional revenue? whoa....mind blown.
