 The 8GB version of Apple's iPhone 5C is official. The company has launched the 8GB version of iPhone 5C, the cheaper plastic body variant of the iPhone, in several countries in Europe.

The 8GB iPhone 5C model (unlocked) has been priced at 429 pounds in the UK, 40 pounds cheaper than the 16GB variant of the same phone. The phone is also being offered at zero upfront cost in UK and France through telecom operators O2 and SFR, as part of multi-year contracts. Apple is expected to list the 8GB version of the phone in the US, as well.

The only difference between the 8GB model and the existing variants of the phone is reduced storage space, other specs of iPhone 5C remain same. Apple iPhone 5C sports a 4-inch Retina IPS LCD display (640x1136p, 326ppi). The phone is powered by Apple's A6 chip, that also powers iPhone 5. iPhone 5C features an 8MP rear camera with LED flash and a 1.2MP front-facing camera.
Apple has apparently confirmed to the press that the newly launched 8GB variant of the iPhone 5c will only be sold in the UK, France, Germany, Australia and China. As per a tweet published by Fortune.com staffer Philip Elmer-DeWitt, Apple will only sell the new device in those five territories. It is unclear if Apple was referring to countries it will be sold in at launch, or over the course of its life.
