Any thought that the 5C might be customizable? Meaning you could take it into the store and swap out the back cover for a another color? Even change button colors around? The look of the 5C plastic case sort of makes me think it might be easy to pop on and off. Case cracks, they just swap it out in store maybe.
You're kidding right? There's a reason why we see leaks right before a device is about to be announced/released...
Leaks mean mass production and mass production means it's bein made. Since it's being made then that means we WILL be seeing these colors...
I mean come on.... As if Apple would do that though??? The only way i see swapping the back, is for what $60 for a colour change everytime?
That's where the colors are coming from...
Big Bird Yellow
Cookie Monster Blue
Elmo Red
Ernie Orange
Oscar Green
Count Von Count Black
Mitt Romney Kills Big Bird White

Really.
Hey Apple. Just b/c the phone is cheaper doesn't mean you have to make it look cheap.
Who would pay $450 something that looks like a some plastic junk at the bottom of a toddler's toy bin?
What the hell is going on at Apple? Really. Even the Mac Pro is Plastic Fantastic now.
Some (scratch that, a lot) of 10 year olds do have iPhones, but use it for school stuff. Or iPod Touches.
Hell, when I was 10, I had an iPhone 3G.
Hello Kitty iPhone
What about a special version of a Hello Kitty iPhone just like there are for some other phone makers ...

WTF?
The new MacPro isn't plastic. 
I can understand an iPod Touch but when I was 10 I had an a Nokia flipphone...then again that was in 2005. But I still in 2008 i had a Razor...long story short..the iPhone 5 is my first iPhone
Love the bold font, makes your post that much better!
Maybe they should do the Mac Pro in colors too, since it LOOKS LIKE it is also made of plastic.
Huh, I had no idea. It looks like plastic. I guess the only thing the alu-mini-um will accomplish in this case is to make it more scratch prone.
and I thought Apple security on pre-release components was suppose to be even tighter each year. It's one picture after another now

Mac Pro plastic? You should check your sources...

It looks like plastic? Um, not really.

For you, there is always a reason to be negative (oh, its made of plastic! ah no, its aluminium, now its going to get scratch!)
I'm going to laugh when all of this is proved to be false. At this rate, it could all just be a bunch of Chinese manufacturers trying to copy the "supposed" look.

Yep, be careful with it. Never put your aluminium mac pro in your pocket when you left the keys in...
How many %^& comments one has to read a day??
I am glad it is made of quality parts, it just looks cheaper is all. The black paint is kinda weak.
The curve edges and polycarbonate together help deflect fall angles and soften the impact. We'll see if the work bears any proof to the design when the phone debuts.
