IPhone 5c is a good phone but not great , it's basic phone with a large price , if you were to buy it outright from the store , best to wait for a deal because it is just a glorified iPhone 4! I do not see the big excitement over it when grist came on the market. It doesn't easily I large to read small print on a web site and not all that faster,a huge disappointment at best!

I am a late comer to smart phones. I held on to my old flip phone until it literally fell apart. When AT & T came out with it's new, cheaper plan for smart phones my husband and I both made the switch. It was a no brainer to chose the iPhone for me. I have had an iMac for years and LOVE it. It just makes sense to go with an iPhone when they work so seamlessly together. It is intuitive and easy to learn. I like the size too. My son's phone is huge and would never fit in my purse. We got them at Best Buy and got an almost unbelievable deal. They also charged them, and moved all our contacts. They were very helpful. We got white phones because it was cheaper and we put cases on them anyway so it really didn't matter. My husband and I have small online businesses and these phones have made us more productive. I can check my emails, messages and even our online stores with just a flick of the finger instead of sitting down at my computer for 30 minutes or more. The phone even notifies us with a happy Cha Ching sound when we sell something on Ebay.
I also love having my iTunes library on my phone. I can listen to it anywhere and even run it through my home surround sound if I want.
I am enjoying a couple games too.
With unlimited text I can keep in touch better with my kids who use texting almost exclusively. One of my favorite parts is Siri. All you do is ask the phone a question verbally and it finds the answer. Phone numbers, Dunkin Donuts, local businesses, who was in that movie, what is the name of that song...... It has only failed to find the answer a couple times so far. How great is that!
I also like the Stamp it app. Several local businesses use it and you get points when you shop and your phone keeps track. Also it's great having coupons for my favorite store with the Hobby Lobby app. I guess almost any chain has an app now that you can use to get bargains.
My husband's favorite thing is checking prices on items. If you scan the item it tells you where you can buy it and what the price is on Ebay, Amazon etc. Use can use the barcode or sometimes just the item (like a book cover) and get the answer.
Get a case, first thing. I got a Rocketfish brand. It looks great and helps my hold on to my phone easier. I don't use the camera much because I'm heavily invested in my full-format Canon, but it will come in handy for quick snap shots and video I'm sure. The quality is good and you can email or message the pic immediately.
LOVE my iPhone, love all the cool apps. YAY

iPhone5 is faster, has more memory and faster processer. The battery is used up quicker than iPhone4 and it took quite some doing to move my data over to the iPhone5 some things were lost and had b reentered. I like it better than the iphone4. I just have to watch the battery life, always. The photos come out much much better. Thanks to best buy and AT&T I only paid $1. to purchase this phone plus taxetc. Great deal.....yeah! Like everyone else this phone holds my life...so glad it's lighter weight to carry.

I received this phone for only a dollar (with a two-year contract) and it's probably the best dollar I have ever spent! Wonderful battery life, lovely camera, and a great interface! 5 stars hands down!

Too large for some pockets/purses, especially with any kind of case. Sound quality sometimes seems off. Love the ease of use and the functions available. Picture quality is great!

The phone comes with different colors. However, it's a little slippery in hands. It'd be a good way to give it a case protection to start with.

This was an open box iPhone 5c I purchased for my daughter. It was like it had never been opened. What a difference it made in purchasing it this way. Store agents were wonderful too in finding it and helping set it up.

This phone takes great pictures , is fast and can take panoramic views- nice. Thankfully, I had family members to help me navigate the different features, but not that difficult . The only feature that was difficult for me to get used to is the keyboard. My android had a much larger keyboard and the slide feature for texting was great. I wish the IPhone had that feature- so fast!
But all in all, I do like this phone. The smaller size is actually more convenient.

Bought it for my daughter (12). Great smartphone from every aspect, but could have been updated with few needed features, and different face color. Performance, screen, size, camera, feel, color, looks and of course price are awesome. Most importantly, my daughter LOVES her 'Pink' iPhone 5c, and that's what really matters :-)

Bought the iPhone 5C even though iPhone 6 was out because I still like the size and shape of it the best---fits in my hands and in my pocket.

My husband, who is suspect of our society's collective addiction to smartphones, finally gave in and decided he would be willing to purchase a smartphone, after his not-so-smart phone would not take calls. He wanted a phone that would work and occasionally he wanted to use his phone as a GPS. The Iphone 5C is ideal for a new smartphone user since it is super easy to navigate, use and understand. I have a SG5, which, I believe, requires enjoying the process of customizing your phone. He just wanted one that worked out of the box. We plan on keeping this phone for a long time, so he is happy with the fact that it makes and receives phone calls easily, is small like his old flip phone and he can occasionally use the smart phone parts for when he needs it. And with Mobile Sharing Plans, this phone was not much more than a flip phone.

I was almost convinced by sales associates to purchase the samsung galaxy however I am happy to have my iPhone. It's easy to use, camera works great. Overall the best phone I have had and I am an iPhone lover. The only complaint I have is the touch screen has a hard time picking up around the top right corner of the screen. Otherwise there have not been any issues. It charges fast and seems to hold a charge well. Definitely recommend it!

I upgraded from an iPhone 4 so it was a big upgrade for me. I am so happy with the speed and smoothness of everything. The camera is great and the battery life is better. I love that I can't shatter it if (when) I drop it!

Got this for my daughter and she's loving it. It does not have all the fancy stuff that a high-end iphone has but it gets the job done. And you can't beat the price!
