iPhone 5C Price Ranges From P25,000 to P32,000 in the Philippines

WITH THE announcement of the Apple iPhone 5C earlier today, Filipino Apple fans join the whole world in welcoming the new product with big consideration of its price when sold in the Philippines.

Much as we wanted to say that “C” on iPhone 5C stands for “Cheap” but it’s not really the case.

There’s no official pricing announced for the Philippines yet though possible arrival in the country would be in December 2013, the same day of the release in some 100 countries more.

But with the pricing and availability has been announced for the US and other Asian countries, the closest we could compare in terms of price is the retail price in Hongkong.

Apple Hong Kong site says the 16GB iPhone 5C is priced at HKD4,688. That is equivalent to PhP26,487. Giving a little margin, the same model maybe sold in the Philippines at P25,000 the lowest. The 32GB may be sold at P32,000 or more.

So if you’re planning to buy the iPhone 5C, just get your budget ready by now. The prices would be more or less on that range.

It will be released in the US and a few select countries on September 20.

When it comes to performance and specifications, the iPhone 5C is actually the equivalent of the iPhone 5, which will be soon phased out. Here’s the other specs of the colored phone:
