Apple Brand - iPhone 5C
It's the colourful, vibrant younger sibling to the 5S and its specs bear an uncanny resemblance to its outgoing big brother, the iPhone 5. It has a single-piece polycarbonate body with a reinforced steel frame, is slightly thicker, uses the same A6 processor, has the same 1GB of RAM, the same 4" retina display and comes with the all-new iOS7 as its main calling card. It should arrive on Indian shores on November 1 at a price of about `38,500 to `42,000.
Made for: If you love brightly-coloured things, if you are in college and have made your first million, if you are a serious Apple groupie but are secretly jaded with old-school 'elegance', if you loved the Lumia series but couldn't wrap your head around Windows on a phone - then this is heaven sent for you. Anybody else and especially those 'not in love' with a Fisher-Price-toy-like look and feel inside and outside your phone - this is not your future phone!
Apple Brand - iPhone 5SThe phone has sold millions already. It's the next-generation Apple smartphone and while it may look like an iPhone from two years ago - there are huge improvements. The unibody aluminium construction with glass accents still looks good and is now adorned with a paint job. The internals feature a new A7 SOC with 1GB of RAM, the first ever 64-bit architecture inside a phone and even a new M7 chip that can track all your movements without waking up the other processor. The camera gets an upgrade despite being labelled as an 8 megapixel as the sensor and pixels are larger. The big feature though, is the fingerprint scanner underneath the home button. Should come into India at a price of about `49,000.
Made for: If you're an Apple fan and have upgraded every time a new iPhone comes out - why are you even reading this? If you want a fingerprint scanner that unlocks your phone in the coolest way possible, if you want a screaming fast phone, a camera that does its job even in low light, if you want to shoot videos in super 'slo-mo' and if you've been on the Apple bandwagon but haven't upgraded for two generations - this is a no brainer. But if you think that 4-inch phones are seriously outdated, if you live and die by the term Phablet, if iOS7 has left you cold and if you think 50K is too much to spend to carry on the Apple legacy - wait for the iP6.
