Cheaper 8GB variant of iPhone 5c launched in certain markets

Apple has reportedly launched a cheaper 8GB variant of the colourful iPhone 5c to attract more users in the entry level of the market and hopefully get users of older iPhone 4 and 4s models a chance to run on a larger display and more updated hardware and features. Selling in the UK's Apple Store online for £429, the 8GB model joins exisiting 16GB and 32GB versions of the iPhone 5c. Canada's own page hasn't been updated to reflect the new model offering but we will keep our eyes peeled for any changes.

The iPhone 5s brings the power and features of the popular iPhone 5 in a more colourful and plastic enclosed design. While initially not as popular as the flagship iPhone 5s, the iPhone 5c has found success in the consumer market as well as in the enterprise and BYOD market with many companies opting for the cheaper iPhone to replace older office issued smartphones.
