alongside the hide errand iPhone 5 s we have the iPhone 5c in a variety of colors how do they compare hey guys it's Brandon Minnemann from pocket now and in this video we're going to compare the 5s with the 5c let's get to it okay so let's talk hardware I'm going to push the 5s to the side because if you've seen a 5 you've seen a 5s for the most part the 5c comes in five colors and Apple is calling it beautifully unapologetically plastic you know what I think Apple should be apologizing for using plastic in this case because the plastic used is no different than what is found on Samsung's devices hyper glaze it is super shiny super slick so that when you're holding it in your hand you always feel like you're going to drop it especially if you have sweaty mitts greasy mitts you've just eaten a burrito or whatever it just feels slimy and if you look closely in the light here on this pink model you'll see that fingerprints pick up pretty well it's not really translating on camera here but I can tell you that I can see fingerprints on this whereas on the iPhone 5s you really don't get that except on the top and the bottom here but this metal area just does not pick up fingerprints so you're definitely going to want to have a case with the iPhone 5c now if something Apple did right with this plastic phone is in hand feel it feels a lot higher quality than your standard plastic phone it feels a lot more high quality than the Galaxy s4 and the galaxy s3 and the reason I say that is because for example if you take the five scene you try to twist it a little bit try to make it flex you cannot do that it's incredibly rigid whereas the galaxy s4 galaxy s3 if you tried the same thing with with those phones don't try you might break it those phones will indeed flex they feel thinner and cheaper and lighter the 5c just feels more substantial more high quality even though the back is really slick and shiny so besides that looking around we've got a sort of reconfigure here volume rocker if we bring in the 5s we can see that the the buttons are a little bit taller and more clicky listen so a little bit more loud on the volume buttons and sides that everything else is is similar except here on the bottom and what we have here on the 5 and the 5s is the microphone here in the speaker here now on the 5c it seems to be that the microphone smaller well actually I think on the 5s and 5 the microphone takes up a small part of this drilled area it's just a design choice for the 5s and the 5 which they didn't go with on the 5c probably to save a few bucks that drilling slows down manufacturing probably costs fractions of a penny which can add up over millions and millions of units so it's not as nice here on the bottom we've got the lightning connector black screws and silver screws and a 3.5 millimeter headphone jack now one other thing that's cool about the 5c is that your choice of color will show through to the front on the perimeter of the phone kind of like some other phones with color like the Lumia 1020 this yellow version when you're holding the phone from the front you can see a yellow border all the way around which is nice kind of remind you of the color that you carefully picked for the next two years so that's a nice design choice besides that it's a little bit thicker than the 5 and the 5s it's really difficult to tell here let's try to stack them again and maybe you can tell battery capacity on the 5c is up from the 5s in terms of reference here the iPhone 5 last year's model had a 5.4 5 watt hour battery 14 hundred and 40 milli amp hours the 5c is a little bit bigger at 5.73 watt hours and 1507 milliamp hours the 5 s is bigger yet at 5.9 6 watt hours and 1570 milliamp hours really not that big of a difference we're talking about a difference of about a hundred million hours from the 5 to the 5s so let's take that out of the picture and do some speed tests and by the way before we do speed test another difference between these 2 devices are the cameras got a bigger sensor here that can let in more light with a dual flash amber and white which can fire in many different combinations so that you don't get white blown-up pictures and so far so good we've been testing this at night and it does look like that flash is effective at avoiding that we've got the same exact camera from the iPhone 5 here which isn't a bad thing it takes great pictures low light and not so great any more compared to you know the Lumia 1020 or the HTC One but definitely a great reliable camera on the 5c okay let's do some speed test we've got the a7 64-bit chip on the 5s and we've got the a6 CPU here on the iPhone 5c which has proven to be no slouch the iPhone 5 to this day is still a very fast phone one of the fastest out there so the 5s just makes things a little bit faster in some cases not many so we're gonna start them up see which gets to the lock screen first one two three go okay 5s a little bit faster out the gate with the Apple logo okay 5s is first 5c really not that far behind it and so let's slide to unlock we're not activated on this phone but we're running over Wi-Fi touch ID using my thumb passcode required after restarting and I've got the most secure pin in the whole entire world there we go now we're in okay so let's boost the screen brightness on both of these devices we're gonna go into settings here on both at the same time they came up exactly at the same time we're going to wallpapers and brightness and turn off auto brightness and Jack the brightness up to 100% these should have the same exact screen if you watched our 5s vs. 5 comparison video we put a link up here I said in the video that the screen brightness was exactly the same between the 5 and the 5s I take that back that's a mistake the 5s is dimmer and you can see it here too I'm going to bring these up more close to the screen the 5s is just slightly dimmer than the 5c and the 5 this might be a bad unit or something it's one of the first off the line it really doesn't impact much but if we're being picky the 5s is slightly dimmer for some reason than the 5 and the 5c okay so let's click around here let's open some system apps starting with camera 1 2 3 go at the same time there and of course one thing that you get in the iPhone 5s that you don't get in the 5c is slo-mo video which is pretty cool we're going to talk about that more in the full review let's go into Safari ok they're opening up different pages that's going to pocket now one two three go that was much much faster on the 5s zoom in and release see which clears up faster faster on the 5s here's the real gold HTC one and about the same ok the 5s was a little bit faster there and let's move around on the page go to another story we just went backwards by the way in iOS 7 a lot of people don't know this you can go forwards and backwards by swiping on the screen like that super cool way to navigate in iOS 7 so let's go to another story here we'll zoom in and just do one more test these phones are sliding all around especially the 5c 5c was faster in that situation just like we saw between the 5 and the 5s there's not that much difference between these phones in terms of simple apps that are on the phone like the web browser and opening up calendar and things like that really apps have to be rewritten in 64-bit for the 5s to take advantage of the faster speed so let's open calendar one two three go exactly the same time let's do double tap on the home button exactly the same time so just like we saw between the 5s and the 5 there's not that much of a performance difference that you get with the a7 in day-to-day use what you get is you get slow motion video you get the promise of future apps that are optimized for 64-bit of course you get the fingerprint sensor which might be a convenience for you if you use pin lock and you get a better camera and indeed our tests are showing with the cameras a pretty big step up between the 5s and the 5c or the 5 in terms of low-light photography we're gonna have a lot more in the full review coming up that so that was just a quick comparison between the 5c and the 5s are for reviews of the 5c which Michael Fisher is going to do in the 5s which I'm going to do will be up shortly with plenty of information so if you like this video please give us a thumbs up and drop a comment because it's a great way to stay in shape family guy reference by
