Apple has finally released its long awaited new iPhone model as well as a cheaper alternative.
The newest iPhone is called the iPhone 5S and comes in silver, gold or “space grey.” It is considered the “gold standard of smartphones” and comes with a new A7 chip which is said to be twice as fast as the A6 chip. The iPhone 5S will also have an updated camera with a better flash, larger pixels and bigger aperture which will allow for some awesome phone photography.
Most interesting is the Touch ID fingerprint scanner in the 5S which will make lock codes unnecessary. Users will be able to unlock their iPhone by just touching the home screen once they’ve taught the iPhone their fingerprint.
The cheaper alternative is called the iPhone 5C and will come in five bright colours: green, yellow, pink, blue and white. The 5C is made of plastic and comes with the standard A6 chip. It’s an option for those who don’t aren’t interesting in forking up the fees for the newest iPhone, but still want the perks of an Apple phone.
Both phones will be released on September 20 in Canada. Will you be picking up the iPhone 5C or 5S?
