What are the big differences between the iPhone 5s and 5c?

My daughter needs to upgrade her phone and she would like to get an iPhone. Currently she has the HTC Vivid and it is giving her problems.

if you can wait a few months and get the 6.
5s has better features and stuff.

5c is the 5 with a plastic case & colors.

I'm not paying for the 6. I was just curious about the different 5 models. I've heard so so reviews on the 5c while the wife likes her 5s.
I might get the 6 with my upgrade, then immediately sell it and get the Nexus 5.

I can get a 5s refurb for $50. I think this is probably the best price out there.

Biggest difference is the metal case and the finger scanner

The 5c is for poors. The c stands for cheap.

I got a iPhone 5s on Monday. I had an iPhone 4 which took a swim over the weekend, and I was due for an upgrade anyways. I got the 16GB version. I have been impressed so far with it.
I believe the main differences between the c and s are: the c has colors, the c feels cheap because it has a plastic case, and the camera in the c is not as good.
I've heard a lot of complaints against the c. It was $50 less than the s (99 vs 49) so to me it was worth the extra 50.

I don't own one, but I did not think the 5c feels cheap. Exactly the opposite in fact. Probably the difference that matters most is the 5s has Touch ID while the 5c does not. More here:

As others have said, the C is made of plastic vs metal, doesn't have the TouchID sensor, has a lower quality camera and a has the processor from the 5, so it's a step slower.
It's still a good phone though.

The biggest difference isn't the case, the color, or the plastic....
The 5S has an A7 Processor with 64bit architecture while the 5C has the older A6 (from the original 5). The 5S also has the M7 motion coprocessor..a separate processor to handle all of the motion based functions. The 5/5C does not have that. The camera on the 5S also has a few nice tweaks that the 5C doesn't. And this is just off the top of my head.....
here are the tech specs for the 5C: LINK

The smaller 6 will likely cost the same as the 5s is currently, so you'd be paying the same either way.

Fell off the back of a truck, eh?

No, that is through my AT&T account online. She is a teenager and I'm not paying $200-300 for her a phone.

5c is a good phone. Get her that one. Ask her what color she wants.
