Internal Differences
The iPhone 5 and iPhone 5c are both powered by a dual core 1.3 GHz Apple A6 processor and have 1 GB of RAM. Apple notes that the iPhone 5s has a 64-bit "Apple A7" processor and an "M7 motion coprocessor." Apple does not provide additional technical details, but the always excellent AnandTech was first to determine that the Apple A7 processor is a ARMv8 derivative of Apple's "Swift" dual core architecture called "Cyclone" and it runs at 1.3 GHz. It also is 28 nm, has a 64k/64k level 1 (instruction/data) cache and a 1 MB level 2 cache. AnandTech reported that the iPhone 5s models have 1 GB of RAM, too.
The iPhone 5 and iPhone 5s have 16 GB, 32 GB, or 64 GB of flash storage whereas the iPhone 5c have 8 GB, 16 GB, or 32 GB.
Originally, the iPhone 5c models shipped with 16 GB or 32 GB of storage, but on March 18, 2014, Apple added an 8 GB option, only in the UK, France, Germany, Australia, and China. On April 16, 2014, as first spotted by 9to5Mac, Apple quietly added the 8 GB iPhone 5c model in Austria, Belgium, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Hungary, Italy, Ireland, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland.
On September 9, 2014, Apple rolled out the 8 GB configuration of the iPhone 5c worldwide and discontinued the 16 GB and 32 GB options. Apple also discontinued the 64 GB configurations of the iPhone 5s. On September 9, 2015, Apple discontinued the iPhone 5c altogether.
Consequently, the currently shipping iPhone 5s models only have 16 GB or 32 GB of storage. Of course, on the used market, all other capacities are available, too.
iOS Support Differences
The iPhone 5 models fully support iOS 6, iOS 7, iOS 8, and iOS 9
but the iPhone 5c and iPhone 5s models only support iOS 7, iOS 8, and
iOS 9, without any support for earlier versions of the iOS. However,
note that if any of these iPhone models have been updated to a later
version of the iOS it is not simple to "downgrade" to an earlier version
without resorting to "jailbreaks" or other hacks.
