Apple has always paid little attention to the "small number" of hardware. In the past, there have been many benefits such as the "free" upgrade process of the iPad processor, and the direct replacement of the next generation of new phones due to the discontinuation of the production of old phones. On February 6, it was reported that it was the turn of the elderly iPhone 5c. MacRumors, a foreign media, reported that Apple and its licensors abroad have released new regulations. The 16G version of the iPhone 5c that needs to be replaced due to equipment manufacturing and design reasons will be replaced with the 32G version of the iPhone 5c for free.

The specific reason has not been announced by Apple, but it is generally due to lack of stock. It should be noted that the iPhone 5c was released together with the iPhone 5s in September 2013. At the beginning, everyone expected that it could significantly reduce the entry price of the iPhone, but in fact, the machine was not much cheaper than the metal iPhone 5s. The iPhone 5c is also far less popular than everyone thought. In 2014, the machine had stopped selling in many countries and regions, and then Apple released the 8G storage version of the iPhone 5c (presumably these machines are now lying in a drawer or garbage heap due to storage space).

It's a good thing for Apple to release benefits, but no relevant news has been received in China yet. Even if it is implemented in China, there may be few iPhone 5c users who meet the replacement conditions.
