For the first time, Apple has announced two different iPhone models to cater to the changing consumer markets for smartphones. The iPhone 5S is the traditional upgrade of an existing model, while the iPhone 5C is a slightly cheaper phone that is available in brighter colours.

Both devices will run on the company's latest mobile operating system, iOS 7, and Singapore will be one of the first countries to get the phones when they go on sale on Sept 20 via the local Apple online store, select Apple resellers and across all three local telcos.

The new iPhone 5s sports the exact design and dimensions of its predecessor, offering the same 4-inch touchscreen display and aluminium chassis. The new iPhone 5S is 7.7mm thin and weighs a mere 112g.
