Other than that, expect the same buttons, ports, screen, etc. There's no evidence of a soft-touch finish, so it could be similar to the iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS finish, though like the iPhone 5s, hopefully advances in material engineering make it even more durable, if not rugged. Withholding black (and metal) from the less expensive line means people who want that color (and that treatment) will still be more inclined to go premium with the iPhone 5s. When it comes to popularity, black is king. Though the lack of a black option is incredibly conspicuous.

It's not dissimilar to past colors from the iPod line, however. Some have suggested that's meant to tie into iOS 7's palette. Red, green, blue, yellow, and white seem to be this year's slate. It certainly looks like they've made it more colorful. Hopefully Apple's made their plastics, which used to be prone to cracking around the edges, even better and more resilient. That likely means we'll see polycarbonate just like we did with the iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS, and like Nokia uses to great effect on their Lumia series. Ultimately, it's all about increasing the addressable market at the lower end, while still making a great product and preserving as much margin as possible.Īpple will save money is by skipping the ludicrous iPhone 5 case manufacturing process, and going back to plastic.īased on the leaks, it looks like one of the ways Apple will save money is by skipping the ludicrous iPhone 5 case manufacturing process, and going back to plastic. There are several reasons why a less expensive iPhone makes sense, and why Apple would make an iPhone 5c when they chose not to make an iPhone 4C. Instead of taking last year's model and updating all the internals for this year, Apple could well be taking last year's model, leaving the internals the same, but giving it a new, plastic, more visibly differentiated back casing. IPhone 5c - or, again, whatever Apple ends up calling the less expensive 6th generation iPhone variant - might just be the opposite of Apple's usual tock strategy. Since Apple dislikes large sized active-matrix organic light-emitting diode (AMOLED) panels, and with good reason, we'll likely keep the same light-emitting diode (LED) backlit, inter-plane switching (ISP) panel as last year, with all the great color, vibrance, and viewing angle that comes with it. That means dreams of indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO) and self-refresh might still be a ways off, at least for the iPhone line. However, there's been little to no indication of Apple switching technologies at this point in the product cycle. The in-cell technology used to bond the touch sensor and panel, which made the pixels look like they were in the glass rather than under it, did have some problems with rapid diagonal swipe detection. Absent more steel gray parts leaks, however, it seems less likely that's being pushed to scale.Įither way, hopefully Apple has been working the kinks out of their anodizing process, or considering more layers, so that we get a great looking and durable finish.Īs for the screen, it should also be similar to if not the same as last year's 4-inch, 1136圆40 16:9 Retina display. Black is really hard to anodize, and black iPhone 5 models have held up worse to wear than their white counterparts, so perhaps Apple has experimented with different shades of slate, or - though I've heard nothing to suggest this - they'll be field an all-metalic line of silver, gold, slate, and steel this fall. There have also been some part leaks to suggest a steel gray color has been at least tested as well.

It partially addresses the iPhone 5s problem. It's also a hugely popular color in the after market, will appeal to Asian markets as well, and fits into the premium palette Apple's been using on the high end. That's how everyone else knows they have the new iPhone. A gold iPhone 5s won't be different, but it will look different, and to many people that's all that matters. Think the current silver model tinted gold.

A gold iPhone 5s won't *be* different, but it will *look* different, and to many people that's all that matters.
