We all know that the new iPhone will be reaching our shores on 31 October 2013, all three major local telcos as well as several Apple resellers here have already started their teasers and registration of interests but one big question remains, what will the retail price be? Only about 2 more weeks till we know for sure but it looks like Malaysian Wireless has got some insider information about the pricing as well as launch programs for the iPhone 5C and iPhone 5S in Malaysia.

• iPhone 5C 16GB – RM1,899
• iPhone 5S 16GB – RM2,299
• iPhone 5S 32GB – RM2,599
• iPhone 5S 64GB – RM2,899

Looking at how the iPhone 5S is slightly more expensive in certain countries around the world compared to the iPhone 5 at launch, it make sense that it might be a little more expensive here too (the starting price of the iPhone 5 last year was RM2,199) but Malaysian Wireless noted that there could be about a RM100 difference between certain operators for the iPhone 5S. The iPhone 5C’s pricing is pretty much confirmed.

Apple’s rise follows that of other technology companies in this year’s rankings: Google jumped two spots to rank second this year from fourth in 2012, Microsoft retained its fifth placing while Samsung continued its impressive run to place eighth this year after jumping eight spots last year to place ninth.
Of course, for every rise in rank, there are other companies slipping down the list. IBM and Intel both dropped one spot from last year’s rankings, while Nokia ranked 19th last year, dropped out of the top 50 into 57th, and BlackBerry – placed 93rd last year – dropped out of the top 100 entirely.

The 2GB of RAM and 8GB of expandable storage haven’t changed since last year, although they’re acceptable when the Honor 3 is already on sale for just ¥1,888 ($309) in China.
