1.Topic:

          The topic of my article is talking about the price of the new Iphone5.

2. Article Title:

        The iPhone 5 really costs you $1800     

3. Article Source:

• Where did you get the article? Hyperlink it.

4. Summary:

This article is talking about the price of the new iPhone 5. It describes in detail how much the phone is and what you are actually paying for.

The majority of the cost comes from the service that you have to buy. Also in the article it talks about  how you have to buy new accessories because the old ones will not work.

 You have to get new cases if you want them, a new charger, then there is still money to spent on apps. The minimum for this with the cheapest  service is easily $1800.

5. Reaction:

       

This is not really good for the customers point because this is a lot of money just for a high quality phone that is almost identical to the iPhone 4. I feel like if the service was not as expensive then some people might to be able to afford it.

 To me though I'm happy with my $30 dollar Tracfone. It may not be fancy but it gets the job done. It does not affect me much in any way because I can not afford it.

 It also does not affect me because I do not need a phone of this quality.

         

6. World Impact:

I do not think this will affect the world very much because it is so expensive. If some people have this kind of money to spend then it could help the economy of the U.S  extremely.

 This technological device is another small step for technology.  This will affect the world  because it is another step to making everything electronic.

 This will also impact the world because the increase in technology every time is making another great tool for the people of the world.
