Apart from the luster and color, there are no major differences in the looks of the 3 IPhones. IPhone 5C is a bit bigger and heavier, then its two counterparts. Aluminium and glass have been replaced by plastic, to case this marvelous device. While all of them boast the candy bar form, IPhone 5 C is known to be available in trendy shades of Yellow, Green, Blue and Red as compared to the typical black and white. All the three make the difference under the hood.
The IPhone 5S is faster, when compared with the two. It also comes in with a fingerprint sensor to unlock the phone. The new model support 4G LTE, and comes packed with the latest iOS7.
