I'm gonna be spamming F5 like hell on the apple store after the keynote. No way in hell I can afford a 5C yet, I just gotta know what the damn thing costs! Though I'm still guessing my wallet isn't going to like it all that much.
Goddamnit, Anand, we want your analysis [i]now[/i]
the casing is butt fucking ugly
RIP wallet. [editline]10th September 2013[/editline] but hows battery?
Wonder how far back they've been working with ARM to get the A7 out the door - if at all...
M7 chip What? [quote] It's a motion co-processor. It aggregates and monitors accelerometer, gyro, and compass data and offloads it from the A7. [/quote] Ah
Battery life, the big point. Huh, 10-ish hours.
[quote] Claims of 10 hours of LTE browsing, Wi-Fi. 40 hours of music. 250 hours standby. Main battery life claim not a huge leap over last year. [/quote] eh [editline]10th September 2013[/editline] Woo better camera
I wonder where Apple's been getting the incremental improvements to their optics. [editline]10th September 2013[/editline] And here's yet another marquee "we actually thought about the consumer using the device this time" feature! [editline]10th September 2013[/editline] I can't wait to see how next-generation flashlight apps'll expose all of this.
And slo-mo's a differentiator we'd all have forgotten about as well.
I really like the look of that blue iPhone 5c
[QUOTE=frankie penis;42143302]with the price & colour i assume it's aimed at a younger audience[/QUOTE] it pretty much is.
Woah, automatic shutter speed adjustment during panorama shots? That's fucking neat.
And that's the-company-formerly-known-as-Authentec's eight years of hard work confirmed in advance
woo fingerprint sensor!
[QUOTE=Sir Whoopsalot;42143361]Ring around the home button? The rumors of a fingerprint sensor are true? Unless it's just a redesign, that'd be lame.[/QUOTE] Fingerprint just confirmed. Protected by a sapphire lens, just like the camera. You can also buy things with it instead of using a password.
Fingerprint sensor, finally! That means more phone makers are gonna (hopefully) incorporate these into their phones.
And of course fingerprint verification so happens to be exactingly seamlessly and meticulously worked in
Same price as iPhone 5. [editline]10th September 2013[/editline] Aparently no mentions of 128gb phones.
[QUOTE=kaukassus;42143676]Same price as iPhone 5. [editline]10th September 2013[/editline] Aparently no mentions of 128gb phones.[/QUOTE] Let's be honest, who the hell genuinely needs 128gb of storage on their phone? The 4S is still sticking around? Might look into the cost of that thing.
I like that leather case. [editline]10th September 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=Sir Whoopsalot;42143684]Let's be honest, who the hell genuinely needs 128gb of storage on their phone?[/QUOTE] I don't but there's always some people.
Should've expected Apple to have jumped into the aftermarket case ring earlier - people heading straight for an Apple case must plump up their margins by a pleasing amount.
nsa is will be having a field day to update their fingerprint database
Goddamnit no preorders for 5S
[QUOTE=kaukassus;42143714]Goddamnit no preorders for 5S[/QUOTE] Surely they'll put those up along with preorders for the 5C?
[QUOTE=Sir Whoopsalot;42143724]Surely they'll put those up along with preorders for the 5C?[/QUOTE] They mentioned the iPhone 5C preorder date, but no mentions of the 5S preorder.
[QUOTE=Sir Whoopsalot;42143724]Surely they'll put those up along with preorders for the 5C?[/QUOTE] Why specifically only say the 5C then? Doesn't seem like there's a preorder.
Colored circles and the new fingerprint sensor's protective ring - but what about the "brightening" quip, though? [editline]10th September 2013[/editline] It's Elvis Costello, and yet another way of getting that cash hoard out of the way of pesky dividends!
Apple store is back online for me. 4S is available in 8 gb only for 400 euros unlocked. I think I'll wait.
the fingerprint sensor will be annoying in the winter
