The iPhone 5s has been outselling the iPhone Newest i5C Phone-priceangels.com

What’s more surprising is the iPhone 5c’s sales performance relative to that of the iPhone Newest i5C Phone following the debut of the iPhone 5. Despite the 5c’s newness and its colorful design, it’s not selling that much better than the 4S did when it was demoted to legacy iPhone by the flagship iPhone 5. According to CIRP’s analysis, the 5c accounted for 27 percent of iPhone sales during the time period surveyed — just slightly more than the 23 percent captured by the 4S during the same period last year.

Remember, the new 5c is this year stepping into a role similar to the one the old 4S served last year: The $99 iPhone. But Apple has attempted to improve its value proposition, tricking it out with a new plastic chassis and color options.Last week, it was reported that Apple is cutting iPhone Newest i5C Phone production from 300,000 units to 150,000 units per day, with the iPhone 5c seeing significantly better availability compared to the iPhone 5s. It is, however, unclear how much of the ample iPhone Newest i5C Phone stock are due to weak demand and how much is due to Apple simply having met demand through more effective production. hf3d3SCs
Apple announced last month that the iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c had sold a record nine million units during their launch weekend, but the company did not break down the sales distribution between the two models. However, a report from last week stated that the iPhone 5c finished second in sales over the month of September at US carriers AT&T and Sprint, and finished within the top three in sales at all four major carriers, which suggests that the lower-cost iPhone is at least selling fairly well.

According to new data by Consumer Intelligence Research Partners (via AllThingsD), the iPhone 5s has been outselling the iPhone 5c by more than a two-to-one margin since the launch of both devices last month, with the higher-end device accounting for 64% of total iPhone sales and the lower-cost device accounting for 27%. The iPhone 4S made up the remaining 9%, with the iPhone 5s capturing a lesser percentage of new sales this year when compared to the 68% of new sales captured by the iPhone Newest i5C Phone last year.

A 2-to-1 lead for the iPhone 5s over the iPhone 5c would appear to mark a decline from the launch weekend of September 20, when analytics firm Localytics saw the ratio at closer to 3.5-to-1 by tracking the new devices showing up on its network. At the time, we noted that the gap would likely narrow over time as the launch weekend focused on early adopters buying the higher-end iPhone 5s models that were in short supply, while over the longer term the iPhone 5c would more likely hold appeal for mainstream customers updating when their current contracts run out, and that dynamic appears to already be playing out in the weeks following the launch.

iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c India launch price seems to have been revealed by mobile operator RCom, which earlier confirmed it will be offering Apple's new iPhones in the country starting November 1.According to a PTI report, RCom revealed that iPhone 5c will be available at price starting from Rs. 41,900 (for the 16GB variant) while iPhone 5s will be priced starting Rs, 53,500 (for the 16GB variant).Earlier, Apple announced that iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c will be available in more than a dozen countries, including India and Mexico, on Friday, November 1. The company also confirmed that the iPhone 5s and iPhone Newest i5C Phone will be available in Italy, Russia, Spain and more than 25 additional countries a week before that on Friday, October 25.

Both iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c are currently available in the US, Australia, Canada, China, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan, Puerto Rico, Singapore and the UK.iPhone 5s comes with the Apple-designed A7 64-bit chip, all-new 8 megapixel iSight camera with True Tone flash and Touch ID fingerprint sensor. iPhone 5c features an all-new design, comes in multiple colours and packs internals almost identical to the iPhone 5.

Apple Inc. is cutting the production of the iPhone i5C 1:1 thanks to a slow-down in sales. An analyst report from Credit Suisse’s Thompson indicates Apple Inc has been downgraded to Neutral after the launch of the iPhone 5S and iPhone 5S. The analysis team also trimmed down CY2014E iPhone shipments by about 11%. The reason for this is because of the concern that iPhone 5C pricing was too expensive to be adopted by the mainstream. Surprisingly, the more expensive iPhone 5S is faring better in terms of sales.

Thompson also noted that it’s not likely Apple Inc will replace Pegatron Corporation or use Compal Electronics, Inc to produce the iPhone 5C. He does predict that Compal will take over production for the iPhone Newest i5C Phone in 2014. He also thinks Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) will adjust the iPhone 5C production during the final quarter of this year and this will result in cuts on Pegatron orders.

The i5C is really just a replacement for the iPhone 5-priceangels.com

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. 1. On Oct. 25, the flagship iPhone 5s and its sibling, the iPhone i5C 1:1, will go on sale in 35 new markets, including Austria, Ireland, Italy, Russia, Spain and Taiwan.

A week later, on Nov. 1, the devices will begin shipping in an additional 35 countries.Apple has announced that its flagship smartphone, iPhone 5s, and the less-expensive iPhone 5c will be available in India along with over a dozen other countries starting November 1. The iPhone 5c has a 4-inch Retina display and is powered by Apple's A6 chip. It also has live photo filters and a rear cover that lights up.

The iPhone 5c also includes a new FaceTime HD camera. Apple says the iPhone 5c is made of hard-coated polycarbonate body with a steel reinforced frame for a sturdy feel. Apple has also created soft, matte, microfiber-lined cases for the iPhone 5c.Apple has announced that its flagship smartphone, iPhone 5s, and the less-expensive iPhone 5c will be available in India along with over a dozen other countries starting November 1.
