iPhone 5C specs Leaked with Siri included

Pictures of the iPhone 5C have been leaked several times on the internet for the past weeks which shows mainly the design, but the specifications are still basically unknown. Today a  new report leaks online which shows the full detailed specification of the iPhone 5C.

Although the American manufacturer has not yet confirmed anything, the name of the device iPhone 5C seems also officially confirmed, where the “C” presumably stands for color.

Specs of the iPhone 5C detailed below:
Dual-core CPU (unknown clock speed)
4,0 inch display
1136 x 640 pixels
1 GB RAM
16/32/64 GB storage
8,0 megapixel camera on the back
1,2 megapixel camera on the front
4.89 x 2.30 x 0.30 inch (124,2 x 58,4 x 7,6 mm)
3.74 oz (106 grams)
iOS 7.0
Siri (English, French, German, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Italian and Spanish)

This makes the device slightly larger and narrower than the iPhone 5, but these differences are minimal. The thickness remained unchanged, despite recent leaked cases that showed a slightly thicker design. The weight is 6 grams decreased, which can be explained by the plastic housing.

The predicted retail price of the iPhone 5C is set around $ 400 for the 16 GB version, and the release is set for the end of September.

Siri not included in iPhone 5C

The Apple iPhone 5C is not yet official, but judging by the overwhelming number of leaked images, videos and whispers, the device is coming soon. Latest report suggest the device will not support signature iOS features and capabilities including the Siri voice assistant, Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster stated in an investors note released on Monday night.

Munster says that some "software features" like Siri may be excluded from the low cost model. The Wall Street number cruncher forecasts that the iPhone 5C will end up retailing for $300. Apple is then expected to put the Apple iPhone 4S in mothballs and make the iPhone 5C its low end model. The analyst says that eliminating Siri on the low-cost model should be enough to differentiate the iPhone 5C from the iPhone 5S and prevent cannibalization of higher-end sales by the budget version of the phone.

As far as the new full-priced model is concerned, Munster sees a fingerprint scanner coming on the Apple iPhone 5S, but does not believe features like mobile payments will be ready for iOS 7 this year. Instead, he believes that the scanner will offer basic functions such as unlocking the phone. Securing payments using fingerprints won't occur until next year's iOS update, according to Munster.  The long-time Wall Streeter expects a large-screened Apple iPhone and the Apple iWatch to come to market in the middle of next year.

Xbox 720 Rumours

Microsoft has yet to announce a successor to the Xbox 360, but lots of rumors and speculations have surfaced about the company's next home console. The information is based on sourced, reasonable speculation, rumored features and alleged leaks.

Microsoft's upcoming console codenamed Durango, but known as the Xbox 720, will require a constant internet connection and block second hand games from being used. According to sources, the new Xbox 720 console will need an internet connection to function. Microsoft will be committed to online functionality with a new version of Xbox Live, but physical games will come with an activation code rendering them useless to a second user.

These physical Xbox games will apparently be manufactured on 50GB Blu-ray discs meaning the console should be able to play Blu-ray films. Microsoft's next game console could feature Siri-esque voice control. Popular voice activated personal assistants like Siri and Google Now require a connection to the cloud, where the voice recognition and processing is actually performed.

Improved functionality in this area will supposedly include wake on voice, natural language controls, and speech-to-text. "We understand that Microsoft is also investigating scenarios where a Kinect sensor will detect individuals in a room and suggest appropriate multiplayer games after a user queries the Xbox using voice."


The Edge's source also confirmed rumoured specifications for the Xbox 720 are accurate. It will use an AMD eight-core x64 1.6GHz CPU, a D3D11.x 800MHz graphics card and 8GB of DDR3 RAM.

Microsoft is expected to show off the Xbox 720 at this year's E3 convention, but might announce the console before hand in March.
