Please bundle it as free gifts for new iPad Air 4G 128G buyer.

Learn from Samsung, I buy their note pro 12.2 lte and Samsung bundle home sync as free gift. Both parties are happy clear inventory, up value for money for Samsung customer.

I am having a lot of fun with my free Samsung Home Sync. With 1Tb storage its downloading movies 24/7. The home sync spec is exactly a nexus 10, and play it like an android console using my PS3 controller too!

Overpriced . Under specs phone. Why would people buy this 5crap? Oh yeah. Wait because of the fruit logo.

Of course people aren't going to buy some midrange option that's only a mere $100 cheaper to the best variant available. But they're more placating the phone as an "option" to people with certain personalities than a cheaper alternative to the real flagship.

Have some goddamn humility and make it cheaper. Then it'll sell like crazy.

Quietly of course.

Drop the price, or donate em Cook. The 5C was a good experiment, but did apple really think it would sell next to the unbelievably good 5S. You can't expect a good phone like the C to sell well next to its incredible big brother.

THIS IS NOT GOOD NEWS FOR APPLE THE STOCK MAY HAVE TO TAKE A WRITE DOWN. The next launch had better hit the ball out of the park. Apple needs to lead by innovation rather than to offer cheap versions of one of the leaders of the phone that forever changed the cell phone game.

People want the real deal, and offering cheap knock offs won't take the Note leading Galaxy, or HTC phones out. LG is stepping up, and the Nexus line may be lower spec'd camera wise but software wise with Google software is way ahead.

Android offers customization, and an ecosystem built around the user experience like Google Maps, which interacts with location search for addresses, places to eat, shopping for products and lowest prices, as well as places to go things to do!

It's a shame since the 5c is actually a pretty cool phone. It just cost too much for what you get.

If they priced this like a mid-ranged device, they might see some sales. But the cost difference between the C and the S would not really be significant enough to warrant picking the C over the S. I'm using on contract prices.
