Hi, i was just wondering since they say that the iPhone 5 will reach end-of-life and will be replaced by 5C. Does that mean that if my iPhone has a problem before the end of the garanty it will be replaced by the 5C ? That would really suck...
They will still have iPhone 5 in stock because it is still being sold so that mean their warranties won't run out until next year.

But i have 2 years of garanty. So what if its for example in June of 2015?

But as others have said, there will be refurbs available. If they don't have any (very unlikely, think this only happened with 64GB white CDMA iPhone 4 for a few days), it would be replaced with an equivalent model. So for a 5, since that was the 'premium' phone, the 5S. Very unlikely though.
But the 4 was never made in 64gb...

They still had the original iPhone available as out of warranty replacements just a few months ago so yes, they will have iPhone 5s available for many years to come. They still have iPhone 3s and 3GSs for replacements.
Was the original iPhone available for online replacements only? I can't imagine every store across the nation sitting on a stash of iPhone 2G/ 3G/ 3GS in all the possible consumer variants at all times.
Say, you walked into a store with one of the older devices for a replacement - Do they turn back consumers to seek help online? Would they just order online and ship the device to your address? Or do they offer an equivalent as a replacement on the spot?

I think if the worst came to the worst and you needed your iPhone 5 replaced and Apple didn't have any stock of iPhone 5's. They would replace it with the 5S (or whatever it will be called).
Now whether this would be a straight swap or whether they would require an additional amount (with it been a newer model) then I'm unsure. Perhaps, someone can comment on if they have had something replaced with a newer model due to non stock?
From what I can remember reading on here or the Apple forums (can't remember which).
Apple have retail stock (these are iPhone's in the retail boxes which have the picture of the iPhone on, basically what you receive when you purchase your iPhone).
Apple also have a separate stock of iPhone's that they use for replacements. These iPhone's come in a plain box, and contain only the iPhone and nothing else.
