Does anyone like iphone 5

I attempted to dry it out, and it worked, but it was still out of action for a good several days. The two differently colored LED flashes to allow for better pictures to be taken because the dual flash works with software algorithms in iOS to adjust the flash intensity and color temperature, meaning the iPhone 5s knows the best amount of light—and which type—to emit to let you capture the most natural images possible.

And the reason? The original iPhone 5s shipped with iOS 7. Short answer: if you can get it for very, very cheap, then yes. Phone batteries degrade over time. The iPhone 5s is old and this means that its battery will have degraded considerably.

The good news, however, is that getting a replacement battery is cheap and simple. It will also make your iPhone 5s run as good as new. And iOS should function just fine. The battery is also very small too, and this impacts usability. Back in , the iPhone 5s was fine. But in , things have changed dramatically — apps, web stuff, it all takes up more room and requires more processing grunt. You can save a fortune on newer iPhone models, however, if you buy them refurbished — we have a guide all about this.

Apple expert and novelist, Michael Grothaus has been covering tech on KnowYourMobile for the best part of 10 years. Prior to this, he worked at Apple. Surely this is something to ponder for the wizards in Cupertino.

And the mobile service operators in India surely need to do some introspection, with shame writ large on their faces. The hardware on the iPhone 5 is one of the bright points, which ensure that the nano-SIM related gloom feels worth it at the end! The processor is an Apple A6 dual-core clocking at 1. We tested the 16GB one, in white colour. Apple increased the display size on the iPhone 5 to 4-inches with a resolution of x pixels. Compared to the iPhone 4S, this is a rather considerable upgrade.

The 4S had a 3. The display quality does look considerably better on the iPhone 5, in a side-by-side comparison with the 4S. The colour looks more vivid, the blacks look deeper and the overall picture looks more lifelike. With the aspect ratio, this phone is better for multimedia consumption. There will be no black bars at the top and the bottom of the widescreen format videos. The crispness of the display and the sharpness of the text is pretty much the same as the 4S.

People had often claimed that Apple will not increase the display size of the iPhone, and that 3. However, the increased display size on the iPhone is actually making the experience more comfortable, at least when you are consuming data. On a web page, there is more information in one screen, and you scroll through the pages quicker. Unfortunately, since the iOS has not been tweaked to use the extra screen space for any additional features, which is pretty much about the apps getting more real estate.

Hopefully, this will change with the next iOS update. Speaking of which, there is some disappointment that the interface on the iPhone 5 is exactly the same as the previous two generations of the iPhone, if not more. But then again, the iOS is designed for simplicity, and that is how it has always been. You have multiple screens with the app icons. Folders can be created by long press and dragging an app icon on the top of another.

There is a similar method to deleting apps as well - clicking the little X sign on the vibrating icon. The notification bar is also a shadow of what Android offers! However, all this simplicity means there is no learning curve for someone who may be switching to the iOS ecosystem for the first time. This is something we have praised Windows 8 Phone for, and the same has always been true for the iPhone.

Android fanboys have been fairly proud of the Google Sync feature, letting them immediately download contacts on to a new phone the moment they sign in. But the same is pretty much true for the iCloud, and the moment I signed in, the contacts were populated via 3G within 1 minute.

And we are talking about contacts. The simplicity theme carries on with their contact list as well. It is pretty drab, but very functional. The search bar at the top takes priority. The introduction of the Lightning port has caused quite a bit of teeth gnashing and swearing among a lot of stakeholders.

For starters, quite a few of your accessories and related products will become useless. There's a very simple way to describe the Apple iPhone 5: thinner, lighter and a bit taller than the iPhone 4S. While that gets across the general look of the phone, it rather underestimates what's gone into the design to achieve this. First impression was "Nice! The black looked good.

The I picked it up and went "Huh? Note I use a Galaxy Nexus as my main device. It was nice but felt scrawny. Compared to my legacy i4, it was a good update in looks, compared to a Nexus Next was the display. It was taller. Other than that not much else was a change. Side by side to the Nexus, is was Now for the real stuff how well would this work and what was new. Setup went well. Activated the phone and set it up as a copy of my i4 via iTunes. Only real issue was it exploded all my folders so I had to spend a few recreating on the i5.

The King Of Smartphone! Hello, Am a multi platform application developer for handheld devices. I have a blackberry z10, a samsung galaxy s4, a nokia lumia and an iPhone 5. I use it as my default device. Hasn't disappointed me even once. Awesome phone features, decent gameplay and mind-boggling collection of apps app store.

The only app store in the whole smartphone market to have no-nonsense apps. The integration of apps, the great battery life, the build quality, the signal quality, the touch, the multitasking except youtube. The only flaw in iPhone is the crappy maps app. The iOS is the most advanced mobile OS out there. No bugs, no tunnelling, no lurking and absolutely no leaking of data to third party vendors as does the android. Those who are criticising this device have probably never used it or are paid by xxxxxxx to do that.

Its a no nonsense phone. Your girlfriend would be jealous! Bought this last month. The phone truly is amazing. The weight and feel is just outstanding. The touch and display has no comparison to any other smartphone. Pros: 1. Apple iPhone : 2.

Camera 8mp too good compared to other 8mp cameras 3. Speaker and head phones are state of the art. The new ultra lightening charger actually charges the iPhone very fast compared to other phones. Apple iPhone makes your mark in your friend circle Richy-rich :P Cons: 1. Apple should have increased the battery. Although they do promise to increase the performance with iOS 7 coming in months ahead. As its not manufactured or assembled anywhere in India the cost though increases. Nano Sim slot.

Some might find it tricky and scary as u need to cut the sim card carefully. The best money can get in-depth review. I have been using this phone for the past 3 months. Following r da pros n cons..
