Yesterday, Apple Inc. announced
its newest model, the so-called cheap iPhone. Venture capitalist is disappointed
that iPhone 5C wouldn’t be as cheap as people expected and he called the
company clueless.
He writes, “The C in 5C does not mean ‘cheap’ as I
had hoped. It means clueless, as in clueless about how the vast majority of new
smartphone users are paying for their phones”. Actually, iPhone 5C is not
cheap. With a contract, it costs only $99 in the U.S., 450$ higher than without
one. However, outside the U.S., contracts are much less common. It they want to
own an iPhone 5C, they have to pay &700, almost 7 times of a contract
phone.
So Fred Wilson says c stands for clueless and it is
with same functions but higher price.
