Apple on Tuesday revealed that the iPhone 5S and 5C would be available in the United Kingdom from launch day. Unfortunately, it look a little bit longer for Cupertino to circulate international pricing. However, we now know just how much the iPhone 5S and 5C are going to cost come September 20.
Apple's UK website lists the iPhone 5S as costing £549 for the 16 GB and £629 for the 32 GB. The highest end 64 GB model will set you back £709. Meanwhile, those of you interested in Apple's lower-end (though not that much affordable) iPhone 5C will have to shell out £469 for the 16 GB or £549 for the 32 GB.
As far as specs are concerned, the iPhone 5C is more than decent for its category. The iPhone 5C will run on Apple's A6 SoC and features a 4-inch retina display, integrated touch, full sRGB, an 8-megapixel iSight camera, a new Facetime HD camera with improved low-light functionality, dual-band WiFi a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, more LTE bands than any other phone, and is available in pink, yellow, green, blue and white. The iPhone 5S packs Apple's new A7 SoC and is the world's first 64-bit phone. It also features fingerprint authentication in the form of Touch ID, as well as an improved camera.
