Why is the iphone 5c so cheap?

I looked at comparisons between the iphone 5 and 5c and I don't know how they are priced so different! They both have the same battery, camera, service, and problably more! The only difference is that the 5c is barely heavier (who really gives a crap) and it is made of a hard plastic. I hear the plastic is really durable and has a whole variety of colors which is a benefit. My question is why the iphone 5 is like 500-600 dollers and the iphone 5c is only 100 with all the benefits it gets.

I think it's mainly the material it's made of. Look at the difference in costs between a desktop pc and a Mac, or a pc laptop and a MacBook. A fair bit of the price goes toward the fact that apple uses metal rather than plastic. No matter how durable plastic might be, it can handle a lot less than the metal. With all the overheating iPhone 4S there were, an iPhone 5c with the same problem would be so much worse

I personally think that the price of iphone 5C, I mainly want to play marketing strategy to make people want to buy at this price or iphone 5s, personally think that wants to go the route flagship iphone 5s

Apple purposely made the iPhone 5C out of cheaper material for people on a budget.

  • Why is the iPhone 5c so cheap? How does it differ from the 5s? I've never had an iPhone before, mostly because I think they are Way too overpriced. After I heard the iPhone 5 was coming out, I decided to see how expensive it was going to be this time. The iPhone 5s reached my expections of being overpriced, but when I saw the iPhone 5c, it was only $100. How come it's so cheap? Does it work differently from the 5s? Does it give you a limited amount of features compared to the 5s?
