Didn't take long for Nokia to make fun of the 5C

Not only does 64bit have the ability to address more RAM, it does it more efficiently, so it should mean that it's faster overall as well.

I personally think that the A7 chip is the biggest new feature in the new iPhone because it's the first 64 bit mainstream ARM chip ever.

Fingerprint sensors are nice, but didn't they go out of fashion about 7 years ago on windows laptops?

I'm sad iOS7 hasn't been released.

EDIT: Oh and the iPhone 5C looks really cool. I'd prefer it to a 5s even

The 5C has the same specs as the 5 besides a few new things, and I do agree that the A7 chip is the largest update. Most people look at the camers, and that stuff, but the chip is what I look at and the 5s also have an M7 coprocessor for doing gyroscope, accelerometer, and other such tasks, which will decrease RAM usage directly on the A7 chip.

Battery usage should decrease because of the M7 as well. I think Samsung have a similar thing where they have one of the cores on their octacore chip to be dedicated to hardware sensors.

I think the new camera features are great though, really starting to jump from point-and-shoot quality into more prosumer quality photography.

Yeah, the camera seems great! Digital cameras point-and-shot are out. I'm sure the battery will be poor: they actually didn't make mention of the battery, which means it is less. I think the 64-bit will benefit games that have many objects in motion at once.

Actually battery life increased to 10 hours talk time on 3G, 1 day more on standby, 10 hours web browsing on LTE, etc

This is good for Minecraft PE.
Will the iPad Mini 2nd generation have a Retina display?

Your signature makes me think of the MacBook Air every time.

Lol, I'm still waiting for real multiplayer on PE

I heard it won't, but it may get one early next year.

Did you see that ad?

I'd say it's likely that it will but keep in mind that it hasn't yet been announced.

There's been reports from Apple's display manufacturers that they can't engineer a retina display to meet Apple's requirements until at least 2014, so I'm doubting that the Retina iPad Mini will be released soon. I expect that the regular Mini will be released on October with new Macs and Mavericks, and then a Retina version will be released sometime early-mid 2014.

Seriously thinking of upgrading to a 5C from my 4.

A phone that isn't any different from it's predecessor except it looks nicer and can read your fingerprint:

Ha! Google offers a high-density Nexus 7 (“Retina” is Apple's term, of course, but it's the same concept of pixels that are indistinguishable). It would be fitting for Apple's “innovation” to be an entire year behind Google. Unless they do another half-year release like they did last year with the iPad 4.

Is he praying for money so he can buy the phone?

Minecraft PE does have real multiplayer now…..

Honestly, I think people should be off screens at least once in a while, and not just phones. Once, I skateboarded over to my friend's house to ask him to come play outside, but he was too busy playing on his wiiU with is friend. It made me sad.

forever
    
if <[electronics overuse] > [won't play with me]> then
play sound [supersad :(] until done
    
end

end

Of course, I'm not AGAINST electronics, far from it. I just think we should take a break sometimes.
