Tech giant unveils new $99 plastic iPhone AND 'gold-standard' $399 handset with fingerprint scanner!
The iPhone 5C is a plastic alternative to last year's iPhone 5
It comes in five colours including pink, green, white, blue and yellow
Phone costs £469 if bought outright but prices will be lower on contract
The iPhone 5S comes in three colours including gold, silver and slate
A fingerprint scanner is built into the 'home' button of the iPhone 5S
Called Touch ID, the scanner lets you buy apps at the touch of a button
Prices start at £549 for 16GB going up to £709 for 64GB
Cost set to be lower on contract but no announcement has been made
Devices can be pre-ordered from Friday and go on sale on 20 September
In what's been classed as a 'make or break' event for Apple, the tech firm has unveiled a cut-price handset called the iPhone 5C as well as a high-end model called iPhone 5S.
The release of the iPhone 5C marks a step away from Apple's luxe image.
Many believe the move is a desperate bid to poach Samsung buyers, as the Korean company and its plastic, cheaper handsets go from strength to strength.
