Some photos

I just got mine. Don't really have the time to play with it. It's straight to work for the iPhone.

As promised, here are some photos. (taken from the retired 3GS).

Question: Anyone here recommend a dock? I'm thinking of it. Also, if I should consider a non-Apple dock (if there are any) for the 5c.

Man the White does look good. My old iphone 4 is also white but I'm going to go for blue I think! It's funny I've been eyeing up green for last few months and originally said I would normally go for blue but wanted to be different. Who knows till I see them in the shop!
 
I'm going to preorder mine on Sunday! Should have it by the end of the week, I'm getting it through The Source and the guy who I talked to today gave me a sweet deal, he's giving it to me for $154 plus the value of my 4s trade in. So I'll be walking away with a 32gb 5c for $11!!!
 
I bought my first iPhone last Friday and I must say, I am very impressed. I didn't like the feel of the cold metal with the 5S and just had to have the yellow casing. Compared to the crappy Samsung phone I had, this is blazing fast and works so well with my well established Apple world. I am a very happy camper indeed!

Hands down, the best dock for the iPhone 5C with or without a case, is the HiRise from 12 South. I have it and use it both for my 5C with a case and my caseless iPad mini. Absolutely awesome.
 
iPhone 5c purchasers! Thoughts / pics in here!

Picked up my blue 5 c. What a beauty it is. So slick and fast compared to my old ip4! Pictures to come over the course of the weekend as I don't have my old phone to take a picture, the wife's will do that but don't want to look sad and get caught posting a pic of my phone!
 
One of the things I like over the 5S is the speaker holes. Te 5C just has such nice clean lines, nothing busy or cluttered.

I still hope the6 follows this design and not metal with chamfered bluddy edges >.> i'll take a product RED version

Like the phone but that is the worst case design ever made.
 
Can I ask you all to recommend a case for this phone? My last two phones I've had I have sworn by a casemate tough. I would have gone for one again if it wasn't for the square cutout exposing the apple logo. I like that previous incarnations of casemate tough being low key and disguises the phone somewhat!

Second choice at the moment is a spigen case with air pocket shock protection.

I've been going naked with my 5c, it doesn't feel as fragile as the 4 or 5, but I did buy this case just to have. It's dockable and fits like a glove.

My friend has a 5s and used my case while we were working last weekend, she loves this case more than the leather 5s case. So I guess it just all depends on the person~ I personally don't mind the case. As long as it protects my phone from minor falls, I'm A-Okay with it.

I don't even like Pokémon, but that's a brilliant background to go with the 5c.

Pokémon is my childhood~ Once I saw this background I had to have it as my lockscreen. :eek: Haha I'm such a geeky person.

EDIT:: Also, does anyone have any experience with AIO Wireless? Straight talk doesn't support LTE, so I haven't been able to use my any data (3G doesn't work either) for the past week and going insane when I'm not in a hotspot area. :(
 
I got the blue Jake - as per my pics! I love it. I personally preferred the blue over the white but only because it was such a striking colour! Plus it looked amazing with the blue iOS7 background!

Wow,now let us all know what you decide! Or even better - post pics when you get it!!
Decided on the Blue! Just got to wait a little for my contract month pass so my buy out fee is lower! Then I will go and get the little beauty! Would you mind posting a pic of yours with the stock iOS space looking wallpaper? If you don't mind that would be great! Cant wait till the 13th now!!!

I almost went for green but it was too fluorescent and blue was a slightly duller colour which is perfect! You won't go wrong with blue! :)

Could the colours of the iPhone 5c models be influenced by Apple's history?

It took awhile because the store that I went to doesn't do pre-orders for the 32gb models anymore but I ended up getting lucky and the sales person was able to order one! I should have it by the end of the week. :D
 
Anybody picked up an otterbox? I know it's silly because our phones are colored but I'm a sucker for the Otterbox protection just hate the way the 5C case looks. The Apple hole on the back of the commuter series is uneven and awkward looking. Anyone got the Defender case and can say if it's different or not?
