The iPhone 5C is available for Rs 4000 less, or Rs 37280, on Amazon India. While Apple hasn’t gone official with any announcement about a price cut, retailers across the country are going ahead with discounts on it. The reason? Even though the handset is cheaper than the iPhone 5S, it’s still got a huge price tag attached to it considering its mid-range specs.
But before we come to that, you can get the iPhone 5C from Amazon India by hitting this link or go to Flipkart and Snapdeal who are selling it for Rs 38100 and Rs 37622, respectively.
What’s better than the iPhone 5C?
Phones Review has picked up on a SIM Only Contracts UK survey which says three fifths of Apple iPhone users confessed to ‘blind loyalty’ to the brand and wouldn’t bother comparing it to other devices to see if they have better options. If you’re a diehard fan of the company, then this statement will probably annoy you and you’ll look away from this article.
But in case you were about to buy an iPhone 5C and were wondering if there are any better smartphones out there, we’ll help you with that. By the end of this post, we may be able to convince you of another buy which will save you over Rs 22000 in cash. The first question is – Are you willing to consider Android?
If the answer is in the negative, no need to read on. The Android-powered Moto G has a large battery capacity of 2070mAh, while the iOS-run iPhone 5C makes do with a 1510mAh one. The former sports a 4.5-inch screen with 720 x 1280p resolution and 326ppi sharpness. The latter only boasts of a 4-inch 640 x 1136p 326ppi panel. So the Motorola handset has a bigger and better display too.
On the angle of photography this iPhone boasts of an 8MP camera over its rival’s 5MP one. Both phones have 1GB of RAM. But, the important point is the processor – the Apple smartphone has a 1.3GHz dual core one only, while the Moto G speeds along with a 1.2GHz quad core chipset from Snapdragon. Need we say more?
