Apple unveiled its much-hyped "cheap", colorful plastic iPhone 5C and finger print-scanner equipped iPhone 5S on Tuesday.<br /><br />The post Jobs-era Apple has taken its fair share of heat from critics and analysts and reaction to yesterday's unveiling of two new iPhone models proved no different.<br /><br />The new iPhone 5C, initially expected by many to represent a serious attempt by the high-end phone maker to bolster its presence in emerging markets, will unfortunately still leave a similarly-sized hole in the wallet of potential buyers.<br /><br />As noted by Reuters, an unlocked 16GB version of the device will retail for a staggering $730 in China. To put it another way, roughly a month's wage for urban folk in the country where the phones are manufactured. <br /><br />Fans eager to fork over a finger and toe to get a hold of the new device will sadly still have to give up an arm and a leg to get a taste of Apple's latest and greatest.<br /><br />Unimpressed critics say the device is filled with the repurposed guts of last year's iPhone 5.<br /><br />If you're a sucker for vibrant-colored smartphones though, you're in luck! The iPhone 5C is the most colorful iPhone yet and comes in a variety of new bubblegum-like colors: green, blue, pink and yellow. <br /><br />Apple also showed off the pricier iPhone 5S, which features a fingerprint scanner that allows users to unlock their phones with a touch of the home button.<br /><br />We here at TomoNews US expect the brand new flagship handset, which sees the addition of a champagne gold option, will likely end up making iPhone theft a whole lot scarier. How long until Jigsaw-inspired thieves start lopping off the digits of wealthy iPhone owners to unlock their devices?<br /><br />--------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br /><br />Daily videos brought to you by THE Taiwanese Animators behind the infamous Tiger Woods animation.
