The company launched the iPhone 5S, a flagship device featuring groundbreaking technologies like Touch ID and the A7 chip, which set new standards for mobile security and performance. Alongside this, Apple introduced the iPhone 5C, a more affordable, colourful model aimed at capturing emerging markets.
