  1. 26k is not cheap at all. I could buy high end android smartphone like the xperia z with that. Clearly apple defines cheap differently.

  2. BUMMER!!! I’m hoping that the base price would be pegged at about 15k – 17k. no hopes for getting an iPhone on December. maga-Android na lang ulit ako -_-

  3. if u cant afford it dont buy it…

  4. animal na apple, sugapa talaga sa presyo e wala namang binatbat sa android.

  5. I’m an Apple fanboy and I don’t like the color pallete of the iPhone 5c.

  6. Shabu pa Apple!

    hohohoho

  7. Good luck sa mga uto-uto!

  8. eh pa nga ba? an iPhone will not be a phone for the MASA, it will still COST AN ARM AND A LEG when it reaches the Philippine Shores

  9. ang mahal pa ‘din puteek ‘wag na..

  10. ..still expensive. Well, if you have the money to splurge, then go for it. For the mean time, if you currently have the iphone 5, stick to that muna

  11. ay konti lang difference ng presyo sa 5s? :))

  12. Apple products are TOO EXPENSIVE!!! they say they made the iphone 5c for cheaper version of iphone and for those who cannot afford those iphones (4-5) but they really know what the meaning of cheap??? P 26,500.00 could buy 1 high-end handset or 2 handsets, tsk tsk tsk….GO for ANDROID gadgets…..

  13. Small screen and expensive! Samsung still wins!

  14. iphone 5c = CUPAL! 26k amputa…. What a geedy company… although…..Ishheeeeppppppppp Galore!!

  15. Hmm.. ano kaya sasabihin ng mga apple fans na galit na galit sa plastic build ng samsung and nokia? Is apple pulling off a lumia? ;)

    Nice multi-colored polka dots effect case! Perfect for new year’s eve! :)

  16. Now the argument switches to: Who makes the better PLASTIC, Apple or Samsung?

  17. Apple naming of 5S and 5C is but just correct and truly reflective of the entire USA. This phones are cheaply built to satisfy and cater the emerging markets, and that is the POOR COUNTRY they call as USA. LOL. USA is financially down and all Americans are so poor. They don’t have any cash. All they do is Swipe their Credit Card. That is why Apple got the idea of American poorness and named their phones in honor of the American poorness and it becomes iphone 5 SWIPE and iphone5 CREDIT CARD. Because for sure there is no American out there that would be able to buy iphone other than to iphone 5 SWIPE and iphone 5 CREDIT CARD.LOL LOL

  18. talagang eng eng ang mga mayron apple phones, tignan mo specs, kahit ung chery mobile ni ginoong abuzalzal tatawanan ang specs ng iphone ke 5 or 5suckshit pa iyan. What OS experience are you talking about, I have all the platform, wlang gaganda sa essential and confidential business communications pag RIM OS, secured na at bilis. But heavy gamings at net, Android ka. Win 8 pag office side ka. Now IOS [apple as they always prefer] pag naglalaro ka ng tik tak to, browse ka ng facebook… ngbbsa ng text ni kabit… ngbabasa ng apple news. nag titingin ng bags shoes pra sa kabit… at apple gear para sa kabit… kasi ang apple ay bukod tanging PARA SA MGA KABIT!

  19. bakit ko sinabing mga eng eng ang may apple. Simple KABIT at BAKLA lang naman mayron mga iyan. Bakit kung KABIT or BAKLA ka ba may sapat kang pag iisip at katinuan ng ISIP. WALA. karumal dumal ang ginagawa mo. Kahit saan biblia ka tumingin demonyo kang KABIT or BAKLA ka. At bagay sila ng apple kasi ALL PORMA but TOTALLY CRAP. Lahat ng gurl meron DIAN ay KABIT dahil sure na binili ng PAPA nila iyan. Ang mga kala mo lalaki ay apple ang dala ay TALAMAK NA BADING or CLOSET QUEEN. Magwla na kau if gusto niu BUT tumingin kau sa sarili niu, TRUE NA BAKLA AT PUTA KAU. Hindi ko sinabing meron ako apple ang sinasabi ko ay nakakagamit ako dahil may apple na bigay kay KABIT!

  20. 5c is for emerging market, it does not follow since mahal pa rin. in 2 years time, apple will be down .

  21. nako dami nnmang bumabanat sa iPhone. tanong lang nman dyan e, nagkaroon na ba kayo ng iPhone?

  22. “the iPhone 5C is not a new device. The iPhone 5C is the iPhone 5, and Apple found a cheaper way to produce it.”

    arstechnica.com/apple/2013/09/the-cheap-iphone-has-been-calling-from-inside-the-house-all-along/

  23. hoy Marlito, u sound like an angry woman na pinagpalit ng asawa para sa isang BAKLANG KABIT ah. hahahha

    SHABU PA! hahahahhahahahahhahahahaha

  24. Actually, marlito sounds like a rentboy na ayaw patulan ng mga matronas and gays.

  25. Behold, the new Apple iPhone Lumia series!

  26. Actually, Marlito sounds like a rentboy na ayaw patulan ng mga matronas and gays. LOL :D

  27. and just when i thought to buy one, damn internet it kept on announcing “Apple will released a low-cost phone”. that’s low cost for them since they used plastic materials, but not for the consumers. -_- *dissapointed*

  28. the 5c is low cost and for emerging markets.. with a probable 25k-30k price tag.. YES IT IS!.. compared to the 5s! it really is cheaper.. than the 5s!

    horay! apple take my money! :D

  29. Ang laki ng bezel pa rin. Practically same size lang ang Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini.

  30. Wala lang kasi kayong pera kaya ganyan yung mga pinagsasabi niyo!

  31. Wala namang ganong bago eh. Matamis lang magsalita ang apple. Pero ganun pa man, maganda naman talaga ang iPhone. Kung bibili kayo ng 5c or 5s wag dito, pabili na lang kayo sa america, mas mura siguro. :)

  32. Releases an economy-class iPhone.
    Priced like a high-end Android Phone.

    Fucking Apple logic.

  33. hihintayin pa siguro ng Apple na mangyari sa kanila ang nangyari sa Blackberry bago magiba ng strategy.

  34. oks na oks talaga ang yugatech. parang the buzz, may intriga pa sa comments hahaha

  35. Hahaha ang daming squatters dito na can’t afford ang nagrereklamo sa presyo ng iPhone! This is not meant for you, cheap bastards! You can hate all you want but the fact is you can’t afford this luxury phone.

  36. Hahaha ang daming squatters dito na can’t afford ang nagrereklamo sa presyo ng iPhone! This is not meant for you, cheap bastards! You can hate all you want but the fact is you can’t afford this luxury phone.

  37. Did I miss the part that this was supposed to be a BUDGET iPhone? So sorry Apple but I won’t buy this sh*t. If only you released something that were as cheap as the US price of the Nexus 4.

  38. f*ck apple!! basic call and text and surf doesn´t need expensive phone!

  39. Yes I had an iPhone 4 before but I dumped it for a Lumia.

  40. Daming mga hampas-lupang squatter dami nyong sinasabi di nyo lang naman kaya bumili! Pustahan tayo kapag pina-pili kayo between iPhone and cheap android phone na libre, iphone kukunin nyo!

  41. Mga hampas-lupang squatter dami nyong sinasabi di nyo lang naman kaya bumili! Pustahan tayo kapag pina-pili kayo between iPhone and cheap android phone na libre, iphone kukunin nyo!

  42. walang bibili nito dahil sa Apple ang brand niya,di makkatulong ung brand kung alam naman ng lahat na cheap version to ng iPhone 5s…kung bibili ako ng phone na may premium image andaming android flagship phones jan na magsusuffice

  43. Apple should have at least not used a glossy plastic,honestly di talaga maganda tignan pede naman sila gumamit ng plastic housing na hindi masyado nasasacrifice ang premium feel,mas mukha pang luxury ang sgs4 kaysa dito eh.

  44. Sus niloloko na lang kayo nang apple. nagbabago lang design ng phone at lumalaki lang ang screen ng iphone nila. Overall pangalan na lang ang dinadala nila. for me this is just a waste of money and for that price range?! i can buy a much better phone. yung iba kasi dyan “nakikiuso” na lang at masabi lang na may iphone sila. wag niyo gawing status symbol ang ang iphone niyo.

  45. mga dre chillax lang eto ang di mahal –>
    puff and pass…

  46. mga putang ina nyo lahat, ang sasama nang mga ugali nio Cellphone lang pinag aawayan nyo pa. ang chi cheap nyo…

  47. Wow, yung iba makapag yabang wagas!! Porket naka iPhone ka tapos sya S4 squatter sya. Ang yanang. TAMPALIN KITA NG IPHONE GALAXY 69 ko eh. RAWR!!!!

  48. it’s always a maztter of preferrence. Hindi dapat pinagaawayan. Kung trip mo apple and afford naman it doesn’t mean na social climber ka. Kung android prefer mo, it doesn’t mean na cheap ka, maganda rin naman ang android e – iphone5 user

  49. Some people are like Iphone 5c.. cheap and plastic!

  50. tingin ko ang mga bibili nito ay ung mga magulang na gusto bilhan ng phone ang kanilang mga anak pero ung may magandang tatak at magugustuhan nila dahil maraming kulay =)))

  51. Mga tarantado pala kayo e. Edi wag kau kumain sa inasal kung d nio gsto ang mcdo. Mga tanga.pathetic morons stupid assholes biatch chuy

  52. Mga tarantado pala kayo e. Edi wag kau kumain sa inasal kung d nio gsto ang mcdo. Mga tanga.pathetic morons stupid assholes biatch chuy kituhuy

  53. Feng Shui tea (9): This tea is a combination of traditional oriental herbs designed to
    help reduce the body’s susceptibility to electromagnetic stresses.
    The shapes of designs also have meanings and symbolism such as the elephant with
    wealth and luck. I am free of generational beliefs that
    hold me down.
