In China, the 5C costs over $700 off contract, which is a bit steep
compared to solid Android phones that sell at half that price. "Our
contact believes the iPhone i5C
has potential, and consumers 'love' (especially the younger crowd) the
new color scheme; however, we were told the price point needs to come
down to a range of US$325-$405 to find meaningful volume levels in
China," says White, adding, "The negative comments around pricing and
the positive comments around the color scheme have been consistent
during our trip over the past week."
Apple's colorful iPhone 5C is
not exactly setting the world aflame, says Brian White at Cantor
Fitzgerald in a new note. Before Apple announced the 5C, everyone
expected the phone to be cheaper so Apple could grab market share
points. It isn't cheap, so these reports may just be part of a gradual
resetting of expectations.ljd3sSs3c
Consumers are really
enthusiastic about the 5S, which is only a $100 more than the 5C. If
you're buying a phone, and likely to have it for two or three years, it
makes sense to pay the slight premium.In the grand scheme of things,
lackluster 5C sales might not mean much. As long as the 5S continues to
sell, Apple should be fine. The 5C is really just a replacement for the
iPhone 5. And it will probably outsell the iPhone 5.
Plus, Apple
has some wiggle room with the 5C. It can always cut prices if it thinks
sales are lacking. It's much easier to lower prices than raise them, so
starting high and testing market demand isn't all that bad. Apple’s
newest iPhones will arrive at market in more than 50 countries by Nov.
