I have read lots of articles and watched plenty of videos reviewing Apple's latest announcement. And for some reason these are issues I think could arise that haven't been mentioned:
1.It's no secret that even though the "C" on the iPhone 5C doesn't stand for "Cheap", it almost makes you think it does. It's great that apple can become affordable, or at least, slightly more affordable (only $100 less than the 5s in the US), but who would really buy a phone that is widely recognized as the "Cheap" iPhone? I feel like most Apple users stick with apple because they make good products, but also most of them are now used to being recognized as big spenders in the tech industry, which comes with a sense of pride, and that pride is a big factor in owning an apple product… (and the Chinese still think it's too pricey)
WHY WOULD APPLE CHOOSE THE LETTER "C" MADE OUT OF PLASTIC AND EXPECT THAT PEOPLE (OLDER THAN 14) TO TAKE IT SERIOUSLY?
2. With the release of iOS 7, it will make many feel like they just got a new phone! Why go buy the latest plastic covered one if you can keep your iPhone 5 and still feel like you have a new phone?
WHY WOULD APPLE RELEASE SUCH A DRASTIC IOS CHANGE WHILE RELEASING A NEW IPHONE?
And why haven't these potential issues been mentioned so much in the media?
